Subject: [PATCH v3 24/35] monitor: reject attempts to delete the current monitor
Date: Thu, 18 Jun 2026 11:58:25 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260618105836.991609-25-berrange@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260618105836.991609-1-berrange@redhat.com>
From: Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org>
If an 'object_del' command for a QMP monitor arrives targetting the
current monitor, reject this request. If the current monitor is
deleted, it will be impossible to send any reply and the client won't
be able to remove the corresponding chardev backend.
Note, it is not possible to rely on checking monitor_cur() because
if 'object_del' is called via human-monitor-command, monitor_cur()
will reflect the temporary HMP, not the QMP target that needs to
be checked.

[DB: extracted monitor tracking from larger commit; added logic
to monitor_qmp_prepare_delete to reject request]
