The function handling the shutdown of the monitor is supposed to wake up all waiting threads, which should prevent such a problem. In this case the log attached is not enough to see what's really happening, so please attach a full debug log and ideally report the issue in our gitlab issue tracker: https://gitlab.com/libvirt/libvirt/-/issues/new Guidance on how to setup logging for debugging can be found at: https://libvirt.org/kbase/debuglogs.html#less-verbose-logging-for-qemu-vms
