[Pierre Libeau <pierre.libeau@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello guys,

I will very happy if you have time to give me feedback about this patch.

It's the first time for me about libvirt project so don't hesitate to say me if I have missed something.

I have pushed this change on my side internally and it's resolved my issue.

Objet : [PATCH] Fix race condition when detaching a device

 

Qemu reply to libvirt "DeviceNotFound" and libvirt didn't clean on the
side the live configuration.

qemuMonitorDelDevice() return -2 to qemuDomainDeleteDevice() and during
this action in qemuDomainDetachDeviceLive() the remove is never call.

Ref #359
