Public bug reported: ** Setup: **
→ Host Qemu version 2.4.0.1 Linux: 4.1.1 (Debian 8.2, GCC 4.9.2, x86_64) filesystem ext3 and ext4 one single host machine → Guests (3 VMs) architecture x86_64, Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (Debian 7.6) virtual disk qcow2, uncompressed guests filesystem ext3 virtual disks size: VM1: 3GB, VM2: 5GB, VM3: 250GB → Network bridge (br0) and tap interfaces. ** Command line ** For all 3 VMs, the command line is similar to the following. Only RAM size and ID ("109") are changed. /usr/local/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 -hda /media/raid1/qemu-109 -m 8G -smp 4 -enable-kvm \ -netdev bridge,id=br109 -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=br109,id=nic0,mac=00:00:00:00:01:09 \ -k it -daemonize ** Problem ** Sporadic, unexplained input output error. When I try to SSH to one of the instances, most of the times everything just works fine. Some other times, the SSH connection can be established, but as I interact with the guest via SSH (ls, cd, top) the guest reports "input / output error" on the SSH console. Sometimes, the SSH daemon on the guest answers "/bin/bash input output error". Sometimes the SSH client answers that the connection has been dropped by the host. When this happens, the web services I run on the VMs are and remain unreachable, the VMs themselves are and remain unreachable/unusable via SSH as described, and after killing the relative qemu processes and restarting the VMs, no recent logs are registered on /var/logs on the guests, arguably since the time of the crash. The crash is not triggered by SSH, I just find SSH to be nonfunctional after I spot my web services offline. This only happens to one VM at a time, independently. The other VMs appear to run fine when one VM encounters the problem. I wish instructions to further debug this. ** Affects: qemu Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Description changed: ** Setup: ** → Host - Qemu version 2.4.0.1 - Linux: 4.1.1 (Debian 8.2, GCC 4.9.2, x86_64) - filesystem ext3 and ext4 + Qemu version 2.4.0.1 + Linux: 4.1.1 (Debian 8.2, GCC 4.9.2, x86_64) + filesystem ext3 and ext4 + one single host machine → Guests (3 VMs) - architecture x86_64, Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (Debian 7.6) - virtual disk qcow2, uncompressed - guests filesystem ext3 - virtual disks size: VM1: 3GB, VM2: 5GB, VM3: 250GB + architecture x86_64, Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (Debian 7.6) + virtual disk qcow2, uncompressed + guests filesystem ext3 + virtual disks size: VM1: 3GB, VM2: 5GB, VM3: 250GB → Network - bridge (br0) and tap interfaces. - + bridge (br0) and tap interfaces. ** Command line ** For all 3 VMs, the command line is similar to the following.
