I understand that it happened even before this patch, since it's unrelated, right? I cannot reproduce it. I tried completing domain names and block devices etc. and even when it took a lot longer I was still able to kill it with Ctrl-C.
Definitely this is hanging for me, on a second machine as well. However only when I use a valid esx://... URI. For example: $ virsh -c esx://root@[redacted]/?no_verify=1 <TAB> hangs. ^C doesn't do anything, and more interestingly nothing seems to be taking any CPU. I will let it run for a bit to see if it ever recovers, and file a bug soon.
Then I tried it in interactive virsh instead of bash and there are some inconsistencies. When trying to complete something that needs to fetch data from the server then Ctrl-C does nothing until the completion hits, and then it kills the shell. But I haven't been able to find anything that would take so long it felt blocked or even something that would actually block.
Did you try with an esx:// URI?
