[libvirt-users] How do I close a console connection?
I'm working on (re-) implementing serial console support in virtualbmc
[1], and one of the issues I'm hitting right now is that after
establishing a console connection via...
self._stream = self._conn.newStream(libvirt.VIR_STREAM_NONBLOCK)
self._domain.openConsole(None, self._stream, 0)
...I can't figure out how to close the console. Subsequent calls to
openConsole fail because "a console connection is already open". I
thought maybe I should close the stream, but that doesn't appear to be
possible (there is a finish method, but it just tells me that "this
function is not supported by the connection driver").

Either should work if the openConsole call was successful, though Abort would be more typical for a console connection since there's on real concept of completion there.
