Package: acpid
Version: 1:2.0.23-1
Severity: important
I'm noticing I can shutdown Jessie properly but only from the outside
when using kvm. I'm also not exactly sure if this package is the problem
because kvm's own acpi was recently bugreported(and patched)
When I type 'halt' in the VM, the machine shutdown message displays, but
I later have to type "quit/kill" with a kvm monitor command.
(or simply kill -9 <kvm instance>.. quickly noting that a properly
working shutdown normally closes kvm)
* Not to add any more confusion, issuing "system_powerdown" with a kvm
monitoring console actually shuts down the entire VM including the kvm
process
(this is sounding very "kvm" related, but it should be failing from
outside the vm)
this may look a bit confusing at a quick glance but I've tested this
several times..
The kvm acpi bug report filed a few days ago has been "patched". I
tested the shutdown with the patched dsfg-4 release
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=759522
^fwiw, the acpi kernel messages are now showing up more properly in the
VM as I was the one who filed this bugreport (reason I suspect it has
less to do with it)
thanks
