Fix race condition reconnecting to vms & loading configs
The following sequence 1. Define a persistent QMEU guest 2. Start the QEMU guest 3. Stop libvirtd 4. Kill the QEMU process 5. Start libvirtd 6. List persistent guests At the last step, the previously running persistent guest will be missing. This is because of a race condition in the QEMU driver startup code. It does 1. Load all VM state files 2. Spawn thread to reconnect to each VM 3. Load all VM config files Only at the end of step 3, does the 'virDomainObjPtr' get marked as "persistent". There is therefore a window where the thread reconnecting to the VM will remove the persistent VM from the list. The easy fix is to simply switch the order of steps 2 & 3. In addition to this though, we must only attempt to reconnect to a VM which had a non-zero PID loaded from its state file. Signed-off-by: NDaniel P.
