Normally virt-viewer relies on the VNC/SPICE widget seeing an EOF on its underlying connection to detect when the session is closed. When tunnelling to a remote guest over SSH though, this EOF can be delayed for a very long time, leaving a dead session open. This can be seen with virt-viewer -c qemu+ssh://remotehost/system guestname when on the remote shell run virsh destroy guestname and notice that virt-viewer does not see the shutdown immediately. When we get a domain stopped event we know the session should be dead, so forceably close it, if not already closed. Signed-off-by: Daniel P.

Virt Viewer =========== Virt Viewer provides a graphical viewer for the guest OS display. At this time is supports guest OS using the VNC or SPICE protocols. Further protocols may be supported in the future as user demand dicatates. The viewer can connect directly to both local and remotely hosted guest OS, optionally using SSL/TLS encryption. Virt Viewer can be built with either GTK2 or GTK3, with the default option currently being GTK2. The choice can be made with: ./configure --with-gtk=3.0 (or =2.0) Virt Viewer uses the GTK-VNC (>= 0.4.3) widget to provide a display of the VNC protocol, which is available from http://gtk-vnc.sourceforge.net/ Virt Viewer uses the SPICE-GTK (>= 0.30) widget to provide a display of the SPICE protocol, which is available from: http://spice-space.org/page/Spice-Gtk Use of either SPICE-GTK or GTK-VNC can be disabled at time of configure, with --without-gtk-vnc or --without-spice-gtk respectively. Virt Viewer uses libvirt to lookup information about the guest OS display. This is available from http://libvirt.org/ Further information about the Virt Viewer application can be found on the Virt Manager website: http://virt-manager.org/ Feedback should be directed to the mailing list at http://virt-manager.org/mailinglist.html -- End
