Hmm... I do not notice this API... Thanks for pointing this. I rough scan this API, it uses gettimeofday() to calculate the timeout. The time returns from gettimeofday can be changed by user, and it will cause some problems... > > Daniel > > -- > libvir-list mailing list > libvir-list@redhat.com > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list > -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
