I said " qemuProcessBeginStopJob failed" means that:
we failed to kill qemu process in 15 seconds (refer to virProcessKillPainfully).
IOW, we send SIGTERM and SIGKILL but the qemu process doesn't exit in 15s, and
then libvirt will think qemu is still in running state event though qemu  exit
indeed after the 15s loop in virProcessKillPainfully.

int
qemuProcessBeginStopJob(virQEMUDriverPtr driver,
                        virDomainObjPtr vm,
                        qemuDomainJob job,
                        bool forceKill)
{
	...
	if (qemuProcessKill(vm, killFlags) < 0)
        goto cleanup;
	...
}
