I mean, this virPortAllocatorInstance is going to be a global variable that will never be freed (even if we wanted to). I mean, if virPortRange had a pointer to virPortAllocator and ref/unref it in virPortRangeNew() and virPortRangeFree() then we're good. To break this down, leave the global variable, have virPortRangeNew() call: virPortRangePtr virPortRangeNew(const char *name, unsigned short start, unsigned short end, unsigned int flags) { virPortAllocatorInitialize(); range->pa = virObjectRef(virPortAllocatorInstance); ... } Also, virPortAllocatorDispose() would set the virPortAllocatorInstance pointer to NULL. This is also the root cause of libxlxml2domconfigtest failing for me. So even though you construct virPortRange fresh new for each testCompareXMLToDomConfig() run, the underlying virPortAllocatorInstance stays through different runs. So a port allocated in one run stays allocated in the second run too. Yeah, virPortAllocatorRelease() is never called from this test.
