Hi John, Thanks for looking into this. I can quickly repro the problem with qemu 4.0 binary with debugging symbols enabled as I have it available already. Doing the same with qemu 4.1 or development head may be too much hassle but if it's really
the only way I can give it try. Would it worth it to try with 4.0 first and get the strack trace or it will not help and the only way to go is with 4.1 (or dev)? Thanks, Fernando
If 4.0 is what you have access to, having the stack trace for that is better than not, but confirming it happens on the latest release would be nice. Can you share your workflow for virsh that reproduces the failure? --js

or virt-manager) while the guest is running, qemu crashes and the following message is logged: Assertion failed: blk_get_aio_context(d->conf.blk) == s->ctx (/home/buildozer/aports/main/qemu/src/qemu-4.0.0/hw/scsi/virtio-scsi.c: virtio_scsi_ctx_check: 246)
I can repro this at will. All I have to do is to try to attach an ISO file to the SCSI CDROM while the guest is running. The SCSI controller model is virtio-scsi with iothread enabled. Please find below all the details about my setup that I considered relevant
but I missed something please don't hesitate to let me know: Looks like we got aio_context management wrong with iothread for the media change events somewhere. Should be easy enough to fix if we figure out where the bad assumption is. Host arch: x86_64 Distro:

if needed for debugging and the guest XML as well. A backtrace is probably a great starting point (from gdb: `thread apply all bt`.) I don't know exactly what codepath is being exercised when you "attach an ISO file" through libvirt's interface. If you don't
mind the hassle, trying on the 4.1 (or a development build would be even more luxurious) and giving a stacktrace would be nice. Thanks. Fernando Thanks! --js
