Re: [libvirt] [PATCH] qemu: Don't track quiesced state of FSs

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1160084 As of b6d4dad11b (1.2.5) we are trying to keep the status of FSFreeze in the guest. Even though I've tried to fixed couple of corner cases

(6ea54769ba18), it occurred to me just recently, that the approach is broken by design. Firstly, there are many other ways to talk to qemu-ga (even through libvirt) that filesystems can be thawed (e.g. qemu-agent-command) without libvirt noticing. Moreover, there are plenty of ways to thaw filesystems without even qemu-ga noticing (yes, qemu-ga keeps internal track of FSFreeze status). So, instead of keeping the track ourselves, or asking qemu-ga for stale state, it's the best to let qemu-ga deal with that (and possibly let guest kernel propagate an error). Moreover, there's one bug with the following approach, if fsfreeze command failed, we've executed fsthaw subsequently. So issuing domfsfreeze in virsh gave the following result: virsh # domfsfreeze gentoo Froze 1 filesystem(s) virsh # domfsfreeze gentoo error: Unable to freeze filesystems error: internal error: unable to execute QEMU agent command 'guest-fsfreeze-freeze': The command guest-fsfreeze-freeze has been disabled for this instance virsh # domfsfreeze gentoo Froze 1 filesystem(s)
