I can reproduce it too, enabling iothread hang qmp. (qemu process don't crash)

I have tested it with qemu 2.4 some weeks ago (before rc0, without any proxmox patches),
and it was working fine.

Hi 
I am using 

kvm --version 
QEMU emulator version 2.3.92 

I have noticed if you select the iothread option in the disk options of 
your KVM, KVM hangs in a very nasty way: the kvm processes starts, the 
qm manager reports the machine as running but actually it is not: it is 
not possible to attach a qm terminal or qm monitor, or vnc console, it 
seems the processes ignores the messages being sent over the qmp socket: 


qm config 100 | grep iothread 

virtio0: big1:vm-100-disk-1,cache=unsafe,backup=no,iothread=on,size=16G 

qm monitor 100 
Entering Qemu Monitor for VM 100 - type 'help' for help 
qm> info blockdev 
ERROR: VM 100 qmp command 'human-monitor-command' failed - unable to 
connect to VM 100 qmp socket - timeout after 31 retries
