I'm failing to see how is this possible. Connecting to a monitor
inherently has a job, qemuProcessStop also has a job, inherently.

And even if there was a path, the @config is an object and all that
qemuProcessStop does is just unrefs it. Hence, a path string being freed
seems more like a refcounting issue to me. Thus, this looks more correct:


diff --git c/src/qemu/qemu_monitor.c w/src/qemu/qemu_monitor.c
index 5eba154d96..286f0ae7ff 100644
--- c/src/qemu/qemu_monitor.c
+++ w/src/qemu/qemu_monitor.c
@@ -687,9 +687,11 @@ qemuMonitorOpen(virDomainObj *vm,
         return NULL;
     }

+    virObjectRef(config);
     virObjectUnlock(vm);
     fd = qemuMonitorOpenUnix(config->data.nix.path);
     virObjectLock(vm);
+    virObjectUnref(config);

     if (fd < 0)
         return NULL;
