I wondered if anyone here can confirm that

Note that libvirt implements this directly via 'virsh domfsfreeze'. This
is the corresponding man page entry:
domfsfreeze domain [[--mountpoint] mountpoint...]
Freeze mounted filesystems within a running domain to prepare for consistent
snapshots.
The --mountpoint option takes a parameter mountpoint, which is a mount point path of
the filesystem to be frozen.
This option can occur multiple times. If this is not specified, every mounted
filesystem is frozen.
Freezes all mounted block devices filesystems. So if I use 4 block
devices they are all frozen for snapshotting. Or just the root fs?
Since you are using agent passthrough where libvirt doesn't do any
interpretation of what happens please refer to the appropriate
QEMU agent documentation for the semantics of the command you've used.
