From: "Daniel P. Berrange" <berrange(a)redhat.com&gt; Since we daemonized QEMU for capabilities probing there is a long time if QEMU fals to launch. This is because we're not passing in any virDomainObjPtr instance and thus the monitor code can not check to see if the PID is still alive. Signed-off-by: Daniel P.
