I can reproduce this bug.

The reason is that mon->msg is NULL.
I add some debug codes, and found that we send monitor command while
the last command is not finished, and then libvirtd crashed.
After reading the code, I think something is wrong in the function
qemuDomainObjEnterMonitorInternal():
if (priv->job.active == QEMU_JOB_NONE && priv->job.asyncJob) {
if (qemuDomainObjBeginNestedJob(driver, obj) < 0)
We can run query job while asyncJob is running. When we query the migration's
status, priv->job.active is not QEMU_JOB_NONE, and we do not wait the query job
finished. So we send monitor command while last command is not finished. It's very
dangerous.
When we run a async job, we can not know whether the job is nested async job according
to priv->job.active's value.
I think we should introduce four functions for async nested job:
Some functions(for example qemuProcessStopCPUs) can be used by sync job and async job.
So we do not know which type job call these functions when we enter these functions.
We support run sync job and async job at the same time. It means that the monitor
commands
for two jobs can be run in any order.
Another way to fix this bug is:
If we try to send monitor command while the last command is not finished, we wait the last
monitor command
to finish.
qemuDomainObjAsyncEnterMonitor()
qemuDomainObjAsyncEnterMonitorWithDriver()
qemuDomainObjAsyncExitMonitor()
qemuDomainObjAsyncExitMonitorWithDriver()
The qemuDomainObjEnterMonitorInternal()'s caller should pass a bool value to tell
qemuDomainObjEnterMonitorInternal() whether the job is a async nested job.
Thanks
