It seems it breaks QMP command 'migrate "exec:cat>mig"'.
The command hangs and doesn't create the file.
It happens with qemu-system-ppc64 on x86 (so TCG mode).
my command:
./ppc64-softmmu/qemu-system-ppc64 -serial mon:stdio
I wait SLOF fails to find an OS, and:
Ctrl-a c
(qemu) migrate -d "exec:cat>mig"
The file is not created and the command hangs:
#0 in __lll_lock_wait
#1 in pthread_mutex_lock
#2 in qemu_mutex_lock
#3 in rcu_init_lock
#4 in fork
#5 in qemu_fork
#6 in qio_channel_command_new_spawn
#7 in exec_start_outgoing_migration
#8 in qmp_migrate
...
It looks like a deadlock.
