[pve-devel] [PATCH qemu-server 3/7] vzdump: connect to qmeventd for duration of backup

[Stefan Reiter]

Connect and send the vmid of the VM being backed up. This prevents
qmeventd from SIGTERMing the underlying QEMU instance, even if the guest
shuts itself down, until we close the socket connection (in cleanup,
which happens on success and abort, or if we crash the file handle will
be closed as well).
