that this code would fail except in the first time the daemon is launched because mkdir /var/run/libvirt will return -1 and errno EEXIST in all following cases. I'm worried about this,
What do you mean? /var/run is a tmpfs on Solaris so must mkdir after every reboot.
I don't see any #ifdef __sun around that part of the patch, so I assume it need to be valid for all OSes. Moreover if you kill and restart the daemon, I would assume that chunk to fail too. So this need to be fixed IMHO before commit.
I don't think you've read the code correctly. A mkdir of an existing directory will not fail. regards john
