No, machined should clean that up based on signalization sent by libvirt when it is started up again. I guess the scenario is as follows: 1) libvirt is starting a container 2) as part of the process, a remote procedure is called (via dbus) on machined to precreate the machine.slice 3) the container is started 4) libvirtd.service is stopped 5) container is stopped Now you have dangling machine.slice. But this in fact is correct, because libvirt needs to clean up its runtime metadata too. Therefore the process should go on like this: 6) libvirtd.service is started again 7) libvirt notices that the container has stopped 8) as part of cleanup process it instructs machined to remove the machine.slice > > Currently, my patch does remove this when its found empty > > 3) libvirt created /machine > As this was created manually by libvirt, should we delete it here in > libvirt daemon This one can make sense.
