[PATCH 0/4] qemu: Don't lose domain on failed restore

When restoring a domain we might leave a qemu process behind.

The problem is described in 4/4 in more detail, but the digest is: we
start qemu process successfully but then fail to restore its vCPUs and
leave qemu process running and forget about. I thought of two possible
ways to fix this:

1) Kill qemu process and claim error.

2) Don't kill qemu process and don't remove it from our internal list
   and claim error.

I lean towards 1) because I find it clearer. If I were a mgmt app and
call 'virsh restore /path/to/domain.save' then I'd much rather see
either success or an error without any need for cleanup (which would be
implied if we went with number 2).

Michal Prívozník (4):
  qemuDomainSaveImageStartVM: Use VIR_AUTOCLOSE for @intermediatefd
  qemuDomainSaveImageStartVM: Use g_autoptr() for virCommand
  qemu: Use g_autoptr() for qemuDomainSaveCookie
  qemu: Stop domain on failed restore
