Public bug reported:

When issuing a "change" command via the monitor, qemu is unable to open
the iso file if it is mounted on a read-only nfs share. If I mount read-
write (and make sure the file is writable by the qemu process), then the
change command succeeds. Note that this doesn't affect media specified
on the command line when starting qemu, only when changing via the
monitor.

To reproduce, mount cd images directory read only, e.g.

[root@kvmhost0 ~]# grep iso /etc/fstab
10.48.50.20:/iso /srv/kvm/iso nfs4 defaults,ro 0 0

Start qemu with minimal options, just need access to the monitor:

[root@kvmhost0 ~]# kvm -vnc 127.0.0.1:0 -S

Connect to the monitor and issue a change command:

(qemu) change ide1-cd0 /srv/kvm/iso/ubuntu-12.04-server-amd64.iso
Could not open '/srv/kvm/iso/ubuntu-12.04-server-amd64.iso

Re-mount the iso directory read-write and notice that the command
succeeds:

[root@kvmhost0 ~]# mount -o remount,rw /srv/kvm/iso

(qemu) change ide1-cd0 /srv/kvm/iso/ubuntu-12.04-server-amd64.iso
(qemu)
