There are more reasons than waiting for the unlock that would cause a
negative value to be returned, so this seems "dangerous"..

!mon
if json
   !cmd
   qemuMonitorJSONCommand failure
   qemuMonitorJSONCheckError failure
else
   virAsprintf Failure
   qemuMonitorHMPCommand failure
   c_strcasestr failure


Is there no way to determine that the failure was due to a locked tray
from the error message?  The bz notes a DEVICE_TRAY_MOVED event, but I
don't see that here.

I would think that if this is "handle-able" from qemu/json only, then
the qemuMonitorJSONEjectMedia would be the best place to at least check
for this path of retry logic.

You'll have the json error returned (per the link in bz comment 3):

{"error": {"class": "GenericError", "desc": "Device 'cd' is locked"}}

That should be parse-able by this code and either handled back in the
caller or in this code.

Since qemuMonitorJSONEjectMedia doesn't list return values, perhaps use
"-1" to mean total failure, 0 to mean pseudo-success as it does today,
and 1 to indicate tray was locked and that the caller can/should retry.

FWIW: By pseudo-success... I see that if 0 is currently returned, the
while loop will look for the "tray_status == VIR_DOMAIN_DISK_TRAY_OPEN"
and fail if not eventually seen

Consider the following...

    bool retry_lock_tray = false;

    do {
        qemuDomainObjEnterMonitor(driver, vm);
        ret = qemuMonitorEjectMedia(priv->mon, driveAlias, force);
        if (qemuDomainObjExitMonitor(driver, vm) < 0) {
            ret = -1;
            goto cleanup;
        }
        /* We already tried, but got the locked error again */
        if (ret == 1 && retry_lock_tray) {
            some sort of failure since you retried
            ret = -1;
            goto error;
        }
        /* We were locked, but haven't retried */
        if (ret == 1) {
            Wait some period of time for the DEVICE_TRAY_MOVED event
            if event found
                retry_lock_tray = true;
        }
    } while (retry_lock_tray);

    if (ret < 0)
        goto error;

    if (ret == 1) {
        ERROR tray locked by guest, never got DEVICE_TRAY_MOVED
        ret = -1;
        got error;
    }

If it's locked how would this loop ever succeed?  That is how would the
tray open "magically" if it's locked and we haven't sent another eject
request?
