Hello, sorry for possible top-posting, the same issue appears on at least 3.10 LTS series. The original thread is at http://marc.info/?l=kvm&m=14043742300901. The necessary components for failure to reappear are a single running kvm guest and mounted large thp: hugepagesz=1G (seemingly the same as in initial report). With default 2M pages everything is working well, the same for 3.18 with 1G THP. Are there any obvious clues for the issue? Thanks! -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
