The default resource partition is created in the domain start path if it is not existing. Even when libvirtd is stopped after shutting down all domains, the resource partition still exists.
The patch adds code to removes the default resource partition in the cgroup removal path of the domain. If the default resource partition is found to have no child cgroup, the default resource partition will be removed.
Moreover, the code does not remove the user provided resource partitions.

I don't think we want to be doing this. In non-systemd hosts this will be deleting the heirarchy that the sysadmin manually pre-created for their VMs. In a systemd host it will also end up deleting slices that were created by systemd.
AFAIU, there are three cases here:
1) User created resource partition, for example /production/foo As this is created by user, we should not touch them. And my patch does not remove them
2) systemd created /machine.slice If not libvirt, should systemd clean this up when the libvirtd service is stopped ?
Currently, my patch does remove this when its found empty
It isn't libvirtd's job to delete /machine.slice - systemd will periodically prune empty slices itself.
Let me check that, did not see this happening.
3) libvirt created /machine As this was created manually by libvirt, should we delete it here in libvirt daemon
No, you can't assume /machine is created by libvirtd - it could have been created by the user, just like case 3.
Did you mean case 1 here? Regards, Nikunj
