Public bug reported: Hi guys, here I am, reporting yet another issue with qemu. This time, it's something that was first reported in January, and Juan proposed a patch for it:
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.qemu/89009 [PATCH 4/5] Reopen files after migration The symptom is, when running disk stress or any intense IO operation in guest while migrating it causes a qcow2 corruption. We've seen this consistently on the daily test jobs, both for qemu and qemu-kvm. The test that triggers it is autotest stress test running on a VM with ping- pong background migration. The fix proposed by Juan is on our RHEL branch and such a problem does not happen on the RHEL branch. So, what about re-considering Juan's patch, or maybe work out a solution that is satisfactory for the upstream maintainers? ** Affects: qemu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu- devel-ml, which is subscribed to QEMU. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/888150 Title: qemu and qemu.git -> Migration + disk stress introduces qcow2 corruptions Status in QEMU: New Bug description: Hi guys, here I am, reporting yet another issue with qemu.
