Well... you can drop the unplug blocker patches (2/5 and 3/5) but the
savevm patch (5/5) modifies a function introduced by the unrealize
patch (4/5):
@@ -146,6 +157,7 @@ static void virtio_9p_device_unrealize(DeviceState *dev,
Error **errp)
v9fs_release_worker_threads();
g_free(s->ctx.fs_root);
g_free(s->tag);
+ unregister_savevm(dev, "virtio-9p", s);
virtio_cleanup(vdev);
}
and not having an unrealize handler calling unregister_savevm() means
unplug will succeed and leave a dangling pointer in the vm_change_state
list... This causes a systematic crash of the source QEMU when attempting
a migration.
