Description of problem:
---------------------------
Qemu monitor prompt missing:
#qemu-kvm
QEMU 0.12.1 monitor - type 'help' for more information
(qemu)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
-------------------------------------------------------------
qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.228.el6.x86_64.rpm and later version

How reproducible:
-----------------
100%

1.boot guest, used to have prompt:
QEMU 0.12.1 monitor - type 'help' for more information
(qemu)

2.now nothing, after press "ENTER", only:

Additional info:
-----------------
Not sure whether this is a bug nor worth fixing, probably caused by the patch set: Backport corountine-based block layer.

Comment 2 Shaolong Hu 2012-02-21 08:58:02 UTC
Additional info:
-----------------
Need add at least one block device to trigger this, eg:

/usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -drive file=nfs/win2008r2-64-virtio.qcow2,cache=none,if=none,rerror=stop,werror=stop,id=drive-virtio-disk0,format=qcow2 -device virtio-blk-pci,drive=drive-virtio-disk0,id=device-virtio-disk0 -monitor stdio
