How reproducible:
100%
Steps to Reproduce:
1.start guest:
# /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -name rhel7 -machine pc-i440fx-rhel7.2.0,accel=kvm,usb=off -m 4096 -cpu SandyBridge -realtime mlock=on -sandbox off -smp 4,maxcpus=4,sockets=4,cores=1,threads=1 -object iothread,id=iothread0 -drive file=/home/rhel7.2.qcow2,if=none,id=data-disk1,format=qcow2,cache=none,aio=native,werror=stop,rerror=stop -net none -device sga -spice port=5910,password=redhat-vga,disable-ticketing -vga qxl -global qxl-vga.ram_size=67108864 -global qxl-vga.vram_size=67108864 -qmp tcp:0:4466,server,nowait -serial unix:/tmp/ttym,server,nowait -monitor stdio
2.the guest will be at the BIOS screen because there is no virtio-blk-pci device yet. Then start a drive-mirror operation on the QMP monitor: { "execute": "drive-mirror", "arguments": { "device": "data-disk1", "target": "/root/sn1", "format": "qcow2", "mode": "absolute-paths", "sync": "full", "speed": 1000000000, "on-target-error": "stop" } }
3.do hotplug virtio-blk data-plane device.
{"execute":"device_add","arguments":{"driver":"virtio-blk-pci","drive":"data-disk1","id":"system-disk0","iothread":"iothread0"}}
4.do system_rest to start KVM guest.
Actual results
after step3, the qmp command can return normally.
after step4, qemu-kvm quits with core dump:

Expected results:
QEMU should print an error message and refuse to hotplug with virtio-blk data-plane while the drive-mirror job is running, this can prevent data corruption.
I'm confuse about the reason for this clone... What's different from the original report (Bug 1140001)? Is it the same problem that is back (a regression)?
This is a new issue. It's probably not critical for 7.2 because libvirt shouldn't trigger it.
I wasn't able to reproduce this exact crash, but I hit a related one.
The problem is that although block jobs and dataplane can be used at the same time, the transition into and out of dataplane doesn't synchronize with running blockjobs. This can lead to crashes because the blockjob may still be using the old AioContext (there is a race condition).
This BZ has the same root cause as bz#1265179. I have already posted a backport for that bug.
