Hello,
I have been trying to use the domain event C code example but unfortunately it segfaults (signal 11) every time I run it:
[root@Spring events-c]# ./event-test myEventAddHandleFunc:221: Add handle 5 1 0xf081a0 0x8f727f8 myEventAddHandleFunc:221: Add handle 7 1 0xf09990 0x8f727f8 myEventAddHandleFunc:221: Add handle 8 1 0xed7940 0x8f727f8 myEventAddTimeoutFunc:251: Adding Timeout -1 0xedefa0 0x8f727f8 myEventAddHandleFunc:221: Add handle 11 1 0xed7940 0x8f727f8 myEventAddTimeoutFunc:251: Adding Timeout -1 0xedefa0 0x8f727f8 main:322 :: Registering domain event cbs Segmentation fault (core dumped)

The stack looks corrupted so I'm doubtful that this trace if of much value. I have built and installed libvirt-0.7.5 and it and it's tools seem to be operating correctly.
I tried the event-test with libvirt-0.7.5 and QEMU/Xen and both are working as expected. No segfaults.
Could you inspect the values of priv and priv->domainEvents in GDB using 'p priv' to see if they are NULL and try to dereference them in GDB using 'p *priv' to see if they point to valid memory areas?
Yes the backtrace looks corrupted. If there is stack/heap corruption involved valgrind may reveal it, so try to run the event-test in valgrind and see if that gives any hints.
You can also try the GIT version of libvirt. There was a invalid free call (resulting in heap corruption) in the node device code fixed after the 0.7.5 release. But that should have no effect on the event-test.

Matthias, priv->domainEvents is NULL, here's the gdb output: (gdb) p *priv $1 = {lock = {lock = {__data = {__lock = 1, __count = 0, __owner = 21806, __kind = 0, __nusers = 1, {__spins = 0, __list = { __next = 0x0}}}, __size = "\001\000\000\000\000\000\000\000.U\000\000\000\000\000\000\001\000\000\000\000\000\000", __align = 1}}, sock = 150469168, watch = 3, pid = 4, uses_tls = 1982791681, is_secure = 1815048801, session = 0x782f6269, type = 0x2f646e65 <Address 0x2f646e65 out of bounds>, counter = 1684956536, localUses = 1668248365, hostname = 0x74656b <Address 0x74656b out of bounds>, debugLog = 0x0, saslconn = 0x0, saslDecoded = 0x0, saslDecodedLength = 0, saslDecodedOffset = 0, saslEncoded = 0x0, saslEncodedLength = 0, saslEncodedOffset = 0, buffer = '\0' <repeats 68 times>, "n\000\000\000\001\000\000\000\000\000\000\000\001\000\000\000\000\000\000\000\001\000\000\000\001\000\000\000\000\000\000\000\001\000\000\000\bQ�\b����\030\034�\b\000\000\000\000�\033�\b\001\000\000\000\002\000\000\000�\033�\b\000\000\000\000\025|�\000\a", '\0' <repeats 11 times>, "X\000�\b", '\0' <repeats 12 times>, "\021\000\000\000\002\000\000\000P��\b\000\000\000\000\021", '\0' <repeats 15 times>, "\021\000\000\0008\036�\b\f\000\000\000\020\000\000\000\021\000\000\000\a\000\000\000\b\000\000\000\t\000\000\000\021\000\000\000\002\000\000\000\230\034�\b\000\000\000\000A\000\000\000\003\000\000\000\001\000\000\000\001\000"..., bufferLength = 0, bufferOffset = 0, callbackList = 0x0, domainEvents = 0x0, eventFlushTimer = 0, domainEventDispatching = 1, wakeupSendFD = 0, wakeupReadFD = 0, waitDispatch = 0x0, streams = 0x0} I'll try a run with valgrind and post the results.
