Re: [libvirt] [PATCH v2 3/4] qemu: don't retry connect() if doing FD passing

Since libvirt called bind() and listen() on the UNIX socket, it is guaranteed that connect() will immediately succeed, if QEMU is running normally. It will only fail if QEMU has closed the monitor socket by mistake or if QEMU has exited, letting the kernel close it. With this in mind we can remove the retry loop and timeout when connecting to the QEMU monitor if we are doing FD passing. Libvirt can go straight to sending the QMP greeting and will simply block waiting for a reply until QEMU is ready. Signed-off-by: Daniel P.
