Re: [libvirt] Python stream callback removal

I'm trying to write an example serial console implementation in

stays up, but as soon as the domain shuts down the python script goes
into a tight loop repeatedly calling the stream event callback.
Debugging indicates that the stream event callback is being requested
to be removed, but it never actually is removed which makes me think I
am not properly releasing some resource, but I was under the
impression that an error on a stream resulting in the stream aborting
was supposed to free all the resources for me. Is that not correct?
No where in your code do you ever invoke eventRemoveCallback.
When the stream is "aborted" this just means that libvirtd
has released server side resource & reported the error back
to the client. You still have to remove your event callbacks
otherwise you'll just be invoked forever. See tools/console.c
for example code doing what you're attempting, but in C.
In particular the places which call virConsoleShutdown.
Your code in Python should basically be a straight conversion
of tools/console.c from C into Python.
