New comment by sirn on void-packages repository https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/25905#issuecomment-723558586 Comment: Unfortunately 6.9.0 doesn't fix the issue for me. Steps to reproduce: 1. Install libvirtd-6.9.0_1 and enable as runit service 1. Restart libvirtd: `sv restart libvirtd` (or reboot) 1. Connect to libvirt: `virsh -c qemu:///system list` 1. `virsh` hangs since libvirt is in deadlock To remedy this, I have to kill all libvirtd process except the one listed in `/var/run/libvirtd.pid` then libvirt would start working until libvirtd is restarted. User session (qemu:///session) doesn't seems to be affected, though. ----- Here's asciinema demostrating the issue: https://asciinema.org/a/HThAMInYCRc8rMIVQ9P00erZC - 0:33 virsh hangs - 0:53 deadlock process killed; <1> tab changing from "virsh" to "oksh" right after - 1:01 subsequent run works Here's asciinema after the patch (without virsh hanging): https://asciinema.org/a/28yEfP68YCcXKvKc4DHUeCy8E
