So looks like following gave error message. There is no error messsage
from the actual thread which failed. This is just the main thread
waiting.

    if let Err(e) = daemon.wait() {
        match e {
            HandleRequest(PartialMessage) => info!("Client disconnected, shutting down"),
            _ => error!("Waiting for daemon failed: {:?}", e),
        }
    }

I can't find "InvalidParam" in rust virtiofsd code. Does that mean,
that this error is being returned by one of the crates we are using.

Prashant, you could try running rust virtiofsd with option "-d" to enable
debug messages and that might show something interesting.

Also, if you are able to reproduce the problem all the time, I think
you can start virtiofsd under gdb and see where exactly is it failing.

Thanks
