Subject: [PATCH] qemu: monitor: Add infrastructure to access VM logs for
better err msgs
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1001738
Early VM startup errors usually produce a better error message in the
machine log file. Currently we were accessing it only when the process
exited during certain phases of startup. This will help adding a more
comprehensive error extraction for early qemu startup phases.
This patch adds infrastructure to keep a file descriptor for the machine
log file that will be used in case an error happens.
(cherry picked from commit 8519e9ecdcc26f9753dbd85e897daabbaa82dee8)
