This error message comes from QEMU. Unfortunately, it doesn't say why locking the file failed. Is there perhaps some additional info in the audit log?
IMO there's another qemu where the 'readonly=on' command line property or thus the <readonly> property in the XML is missing and thus it's opened in write mode. Readers are forbidden then.
