  I tested on win08, win 08 r2 and win2012.

QGA versions:

  Use the latest qga-win from 
  https://fedorapeople.org/groups/virt/virtio-win/direct-downloads/archive-qemu-ga/qemu-ga-win-7.4.5-1/
 
  and stable branch from
  https://fedorapeople.org/groups/virt/virtio-win/direct-downloads/archive-virtio/virtio-win-0.1.126-2/virtio-win-0.1.126.iso

  All of them have the same behavior.

How to reproduce:

  Copy a big file in guest (from d: to c:), then do fsfreeze when IO is in progress.

  At this time, we had a very chance to see that qga hang for a long time.

  Libvirt will not recieve a reply.
  qemu-ga service even don't answer `net stop` command.


Regards,
- Chen
