Re: [libvirt] [PATCH] Allow destroying QEMU VM even if a job is active

Introduce a virProcessKill function that can be safely called

Very nice. This will help issues where if you kill a migration at the
source, then the destination is left with a stale VM with the job lock
held waiting for the incoming migration to complete. With this, you now
have the means to forcibly kill the leftover VM on the destination,
rather than waiting for a network timeout.

Do you want this to return -1 on failure to kill, such as if waitpid()
fails? On the other hand, I guess that best effort is okay; you already
did VIR_DEBUG logging of failures, and the caller can't do much even if
they were to check for a failure.

It took me three reads to figure out what this loop is doing; a comment
would be helpful:
/* Try SIGTERM, then wait 1.6 seconds, then try SIGKILL, all while
probing every 200ms to see if the process is gone */
+
+ rc = virKillProcess(vm->pid, signum);
+ VIR_DEBUG("Iteration %d rc=%d", i, rc);
+ if (rc < 0)
+ break;
When errno==ESRCH, this breaks the loop because the child is dead. But
for any other errno, should you log (at least at VIR_DEBUG) the errno
that causes failure, since that means we didn't exit the loop normally?

ACK with those nits addressed.
