Ah, yes, I prohibited the situation waking up a domain which
wasn't paused by SUSPEND event. But here I forgot it.

We have the paused reason. And the patch which should be
squashed in in the attachment.
From the patch:
+ qemuReportError(VIR_ERR_INTERNAL_ERROR, "%s",
+ _("domain paused from guest side can't be resumed,
"
+ "you might want to wakeup it"));
goto endjob;
This is not an internal error. It should have a precise error code so
that for example virsh can refer the user to dompmwakeup.
Personally I think that using just "virsh suspend"/"virsh resume"
would
have been a fine user interface if you use the PAUSED state (with "virsh
suspend --pm" for example). Then there would have been no need for
"virsh dompmwakeup" at all.
There is still time to change it, but it needs to be done quite soon.
BTW, another thing to test is what happens if you send "virsh suspend"
after putting the guest into S3.
