Re: [libvirt] [PATCH] qemu: Add support for changing timeout value to open unix monitor socket

Hi, I am talking about *Bug 987088*<https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=987088>;, I have added a patch and a description of the fix, this is a copy of my comment on the bug: the default code behavior is wait for 3 seconds and if the socket is not opened yet, print this error and terminate. the code is in src/qemu/qemu_monitor.c in function qemuMonitorOpenUnix. In 2009 there was a patch that added the original 3 seconds retry, the patch can be found here: http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2009-July/msg00335.html I have added a patch with this solution: the default behavior stays the same, but a user can add a configuration variable to qemu.conf and change the timeout value. every system needs a different value according to their system configuration but anyway 3 seconds is not suitable for all cases.
