libvirtd's stderr/stdout redirected to journald by default, so if
the journald has stopped, libvirtd and libvirtd's child process
will receive SIGPIPE signal when writing logs to stderr/stdout.
journald stopped reasons:
1. manual command "systemctl stop systemd-journald.service"
2. oom killer kill it.

In my env, the libvirtd.conf like that:
"
log_level = 1
log_outputs="2:file:/var/log/libvirt/libvirtd.log"
"
Libvirtd works fine in this configuration, if i stop the journald.serivce.
But the child process that forked by libvirtd, will face this problem:
# virsh create vm.xml
error: Failed to create domain from vm.xml
error: internal error: Child process (LC_ALL=C PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -S -no-user-config -nodefaults -nographic -machine none,accel=kvm:tcg -qmp unix:/usr/local/var/lib/libvirt/qemu/qmp-vtKZqu/qmp.monitor,server,nowait -pidfile /usr/local/var/lib/libvirt/qemu/qmp-vtKZqu/qmp.pid -daemonize) unexpected fatal signal 13
The version of libvirt that i test:

Using library: libvirt 5.9.0

If i change the log_level to 3, it can avoid this scene. But i want INFO messages in my logfile.

I didn't notice the effects of signal, thank you for pointing out.
And is there any good way to avoid this other than change the log_level ?

This code is run in both client & server, so we're messing with SIGPIPE in applications that link to libvirt.so. The use of signal() is not safe in multi-threaded applications. In libvirtd we have set SIGPIPE to ignored already when starting up libvirtd.
