[ 737.460654] Bad page state in process 'qemu-kvm' [ 737.460656] page:f5e68000 flags:0xea020000 mapping:00000000 mapcount:2 count:0 [ 737.460657] Trying to fix it up, but a reboot is needed [ 737.460659] Backtrace: [ 737.460691] [<c0159e70>] bad_page+0x64/0x8e [ 737.460733] [<c015a7ee>] free_hot_cold_page+0x68/0x15a That's the "free_pages_check()", and in particular it seems to be "page_mapcount()" being non-zero that triggered that thing. So it looks like something in KVM isn't coherent about the mapping vs the usage counters..
