I guess I'm puzzled here. Thread1 has started migration or finished too? How can thread2 start the VM during migration? Is that an offline migration? To me it seems like there's a problem with what jobs are allowed during migration, or their order. Looking at qemuMigrationSrcConfirm() which is the function that does final step of migration (at the source), so it ends migration job, then it starts MODIFY job (which potentially unlocks the domain object) and only then it sets vm->removing = true and removes it from the list. What I am trying to say is that because the vm object can be briefly unlocked thus another thread might lock it successfully, proceed to BeginJob(), where it unlocks the object again only to let the first thread to remove it from the list. It's not only virDomainCreateWithFlags() that's affected - basically any other API that grabs a job. Even though, plenty of them require domain to be running, therefore they exit early with "domain not running" error message. I wonder whether something among these lines fixes the problem for you (compile tested only, but it shows the idea):
