In the 2.7 release we stated in the ChangeLog that the
minimum glib version for Windows hosts was 2.30, but we
didn't update configure to enforce this because we were
very close to the release at the point where we noticed
the issue, and it only affected building the test suite.
We then forgot that we needed to do it. Fix the omission.
(The reason for the 2.30 requirement is use of
g_dir_make_tmp() -- our fallback implementation uses
mkdtemp(), which isn't available on Windows.)

If @bs does not have any parents, the only reference to @mirror_top_bs
will be held by the BlockJob object after the bdrv_unref() following
block_job_create(). However, if block_job_create() fails, this reference
will not exist and @mirror_top_bs will have been deleted when we
goto fail.
The issue comes back at all later entries to the fail label: We delete
the BlockJob object before rolling back our changes to the node graph.
This means that we will delete @mirror_top_bs in the process.
All in all, whenever @bs does not have any parents and we go down the
fail path we will dereference @mirror_top_bs after it has been deleted.
Fix this by invoking bdrv_unref() only when block_job_create() was
successful and by bdrv_ref()'ing @mirror_top_bs in the fail path before
deleting the BlockJob object. Finally, bdrv_unref() it at the end of the
fail path after we actually no longer need it.

Usually guest devices don't like other writers to the same image, so
they use blk_set_perm() to prevent this from happening. In the migration
phase before the VM is actually running, though, they don't have a
problem with writes to the image. On the other hand, storage migration
needs to be able to write to the image in this phase, so the restrictive
blk_set_perm() call of qdev devices breaks it.
This patch flags all BlockBackends with a qdev device as
blk->disable_perm during incoming migration, which means that the
requested permissions are stored in the BlockBackend, but not actually
applied to its root node yet.
Once migration has finished and the VM should be resumed, the
permissions are applied. If they cannot be applied (e.g. because the NBD
server used for block migration hasn't been shut down), resuming the VM
fails.

The migration blocker survives a device reset: if the guest mounts a 9p
share and then gets rebooted with system_reset, it will be unmigratable
until it remounts and umounts the 9p share again.
This happens because the migration blocker is supposed to be cleared when
we put the last reference on the root fid, but virtfs_reset() wrongly calls
free_fid() instead of put_fid().
This patch fixes virtfs_reset() so that it honor the way fids are supposed
to be manipulated: first get a reference and later put it back when you're
done.

When running virt-rescue the serial console hangs from time to time.
Virt-rescue runs an ordinary Linux kernel "appliance", but there is
only a single idle process running inside, so the qemu main loop is
largely idle. With virt-rescue >= 1.37 you may be able to observe the
hang by doing:
$ virt-rescue -e ^] --scratch
><rescue> while true; do ls -l /usr/bin; done
The hang in virt-rescue can be resolved by pressing a key on the
serial console.
Possibly with the same root cause, we also observed hangs during very
early boot of regular Linux VMs with a serial console. Those hangs
are extremely rare, but you may be able to observe them by running
this command on baremetal for a sufficiently long time:
$ while libguestfs-test-tool -t 60 >& /tmp/log ; do echo -n . ; done
(Check in /tmp/log that the failure was caused by a hang during early
boot, and not some other reason)
During investigation of this bug, Paolo Bonzini wrote:

This fixes the serial console hang in my testing, across 3 different
