Looking at this a bit closer, I think this may be a bug in qemu.
/dev/fd/7 is supposed to be the file descriptor of the image which we
have opened in libguestfs, see this code:
https://github.com/libguestfs/libguestfs/blob/06df910491c49360c0292c7153b...
I wonder if qemu gets confused by this and thinks that the image is
open in two places?
I can't reproduce this here however. Having a nice short reproducer
might help.
This bug has now been reported by a Debian user:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=884110
Yaniv, did you file an upstream bug report and/or get a reliable
reproducer? I cannot reproduce this at all.
Rich.
