Hi Jim,
I don't see any calls to libxl_event_dispose in libvirt.git, actually I think I meant libxl_event_free, but I can't see that either.
Right. I confirmed that was needed with Ian J. a few weeks (months) back, but then never submitted a patch. I've attached one, but noticed that the prototype of the event_occurs callback defines the event parameter as const, causing this error without the lame cast cc1: warnings being treated as errors libxl/libxl_driver.c: In function 'libxlEventHandler': libxl/libxl_driver.c:760: error: passing argument 2 of 'libxl_event_free' discards qualifiers from pointer target type Shouldn't the callback in libxl_event.h just be void (*event_occurs)(void *user, libxl_event *event); But I suppose we can't change that. BTW, the const'ness of event led me to believe it didn't need freed. Regards, Jim
libxl_event.h says in relation to the event_occurs callback: * event becomes owned by the application and must be freed, either * by event_occurs or later. so does this mean the memory referenced by event is leaked by libxlEventHandler?
libxl_event only contains dynamic allocations for LIBXL_EVENT_TYPE_DISK_EJECT which you don't seem to register for so the issue is probably benign but worth noting I think.
Ian.
