Hi,

I'm curious why the option -pidfile creates a file with mode 0600. Usually I drop root privileges with the -runas parameter. The pidfile is then owned by root:root and there is no chance to read it with the new uid. Running a post command to change the mode is a bit annoying. And in comparison with other pid files - most of them are mode 0644 (owned by root:root). Is there any reason why qemu works this way? Any chance to change this upstream?

regards
Kai
