Public bug reported: As of git revision 041ccc922ee474693a2869d4e3b59e920c739bc0, qemu segfaults on startup when I try to boot a hard disk image with the -snapshot option.
To reproduce: wget http://wiki.qemu.org/download/linux-0.2.img.bz2 bunzip2 linux-0.2.img.bz2 qemu-system-i386 -hda linux-0.2.img -snapshot When I run this, qemu-system-i386 crashes with a segmentation fault. This is on a Debian 7 amd64 host. git bisect implicates the following commit: commit a464982499b2f637f6699e3d03e0a9d2e0b5288b Author: Paolo Bonzini <pbonz...@redhat.com> Date: Wed Feb 11 17:15:18 2015 +0100 rcu: run RCU callbacks under the BQL This needs to go away sooner or later, but one complication is the complex VFIO data structures that are modified in instance_finalize. Take a shortcut for now.
