(Re-)Starting libvirt on a system with running qemu domains which earlier had been successfully started by libvirt results in the error
internal error: unable to execute QEMU command 'query-hotpluggable-cpus': The feature 'query-hotpluggable-cpus' is not enabled if the qemu binary does not support the qmp command 'query-hotpluggable-cpus'. As libvirt tries to reconnect to the running qemu domains it reads in the capabilities but in qemuProcessReconnect misses to run virQEMUCapsCacheLookupCopy and not clearing the query-hotpluggable-cpus capability in virQEMUCapsFilterByMachineType which was introduced with commit 920bbe5c. Libvirt therefore issues the qmp command and qemu responds with the error 'The feature 'query-hotpluggable-cpus' is not enabled'. As a consequence libvirt terminates the running qemu process since it determines that it cannot reconnect to the domain.
