[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v1 5/6] scripts: ensure monitor socket has SO_REUSEADDR set

[Daniel P. Berrange]

If tests use a TCP based monitor socket, the connection will
go into a TIMED_WAIT state when the test exits. This will
randomly prevent the test from being re-run without a certain
time period. Set the SO_REUSEADDR flag on the socket to ensure
we can immediately re-run the tests
