Re: [libvirt] [PATCH v2] qemu: fix libvirtd crash when querying halted cpus info

It was introduced by commit 7a51d9ebb, which started to use monitor commands without job acquiring, which is unsafe and leads to simultaneous access to vm->mon structure by different threads. Crash backtrace is the following (shortened): Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. qemuMonitorSend (mon=mon@entry=0x7f4ef4000d20, msg=msg@entry=0x7f4f18e78640) at qemu/qemu_monitor.c:1011 1011 while (!mon->msg->finished) { 0 qemuMonitorSend () at qemu/qemu_monitor.c:1011 1 0x00007f691abdc720 in qemuMonitorJSONCommandWithFd () at qemu/qemu_monitor_json.c:298 2 0x00007f691abde64a in qemuMonitorJSONCommand at qemu/qemu_monitor_json.c:328 3 qemuMonitorJSONQueryCPUs at qemu/qemu_monitor_json.c:1408 4 0x00007f691abcaebd in qemuMonitorGetCPUInfo g@entry=false) at qemu/qemu_monitor.c:1931 5 0x00007f691ab96863 in qemuDomainRefreshVcpuHalted at qemu/qemu_domain.c:6309 6 0x00007f691ac0af99 in qemuDomainGetStatsVcpu at qemu/qemu_driver.c:18945 7 0x00007f691abef921 in qemuDomainGetStats at qemu/qemu_driver.c:19469 8 qemuConnectGetAllDomainStats at qemu/qemu_driver.c:19559 9 0x00007f693382e806 in virConnectGetAllDomainStats at libvirt-domain.c:11546 10 0x00007f6934470c40 in remoteDispatchConnectGetAllDomainStats at remote.c:6267 (gdb) p mon->msg $1 = (qemuMonitorMessagePtr) 0x0 This change fixes it by calling qemuDomainRefreshVcpuHalted only when job is acquired.
