It takes two issues of qemuMonitorEjectMedia in order to successfully
eject the media as far as I understood because the first only opens the
tray only. Hence

235     qemuDomainObjEnterMonitor(driver, vm);
236     rc = qemuMonitorEjectMedia(priv->mon, driveAlias, force);

rc == -1 for the first call.

237     if (qemuDomainObjExitMonitor(driver, vm) < 0)
238         goto cleanup;
239
240     /* If the tray is present and tray change event is supported wait for it to open. */
241     if (diskPriv->tray &&
242         virQEMUCapsGet(priv->qemuCaps, QEMU_CAPS_DEVICE_TRAY_MOVED)) {
243         if (qemuHotplugWaitForTrayEject(driver, vm, disk, driveAlias, force) < 0)

This is the second call to qemuMonitorEjectMedia after waiting an
appropriate time to process the tray open command above. This call
succeeds and returns 0 but the return code rc is _not_ set, so rc is
still -1.

244             goto error;
245     } else  {
246         /* otherwise report possible errors from the attempt to eject the media*/
247         if (rc < 0)
248             goto error;
249     }
250
251     if (!virStorageSourceIsEmpty(newsrc)) {

This doesn't get called for just an eject media command...

[...]
264         rc = qemuMonitorChangeMedia(priv->mon,

... but it _would_ actually set rc correctly.

265                                     driveAlias,
266                                     sourcestr,
267                                     format);
268         if (qemuDomainObjExitMonitor(driver, vm) < 0)
269             goto cleanup;
270     }
271
272     virDomainAuditDisk(vm, disk->src, newsrc, "update", rc >= 0);
273
274     if (rc < 0)
275         goto error;

Since rc is still -1 because it did not get set properly on each branch,
the function errors out despite actually succeeding. This is the actual
behaviour of this function prior to the refactoring, so I guess it's
just a simple oversight. Unfortunately, the test suite did not catch
this because of a missing mock in qemuhotplugtest.

I don't understand. My patch restores the exact functional behaviour of
this function prior to the refactor. I do see a spurious error message
when issuing the first change-media --eject command. This is gone with
my patch applied. If the function is otherwise misbehaving I can not
tell.
