751f8cfe2a556b3ef49f6af2860e2d1d2a1ec66a monitor: fix dangling CPU pointer
If a CPU selected with the "cpu" command is hot-unplugged then "info cpus"
causes QEMU to exit:
(qemu) device_del cpu1
(qemu) info cpus
qemu:qemu_cpu_kick_thread: No such process
This happens because "cpu" stores the pointer to the selected CPU into
the monitor structure. When the CPU is hot-unplugged, we end up with a
dangling pointer. The "info cpus" command then does:
hmp_info_cpus()
monitor_get_cpu_index()
mon_get_cpu()
cpu_synchronize_state() <--- called with dangling pointer
This could cause a QEMU crash as well.
This patch switches the monitor to store the QOM path instead of a
pointer to the current CPU. The path is then resolved when needed.
If the resolution fails, we assume that the CPU was removed and the
path is resetted to the default (ie, path of first_cpu).
