Re: [libvirt] Are they reasonable FD leaks?

If you're using libvirt upstream to check it, you need to revoke commit 6152c74, which fixed memory leak issue on cmdUndefine(), it's okay without FD leaks if memory leak is fixed, in other words, you will met FD leaks if you saw the following similar error information: error: Failed to disconnect from the hypervisor, 1 leaked reference(s) Regards, Alex ----- Original Message ----- From: "Alex Jia" <ajia(a)redhat.com&gt; To: "libvir" <libvir-list(a)redhat.com&gt; Sent: Friday, February 3, 2012 3:54:43 PM Subject: [libvirt] Are they reasonable FD leaks?
