I just came across a problem I can't make heads or tails of: I have a host
with libvirt 2.3.0 and qemu 2.6.0 installed

I create a Guest (linux machine) nothing fancy so far (I don't think guest
configuration is relevant)
I connect to the host either via a serial cable (using something like
minicom) or SSH.
After connecting to the Host I connect to the guest via console (virsh
console guest_name) and generate a large amount of output (100kb of output
should do it)

If I'm connected via serial to the host, the console simply crashes half
way through the prints:
 error: Disconnected from qemu:///system due to I/O error
At this point the prompt shows the host console since virsh console crashed

If I do the same thing while connected via ssh to the host everything works
fine.

Checking the guest log file I notice this:

Domain id=1 is tainted: high-privileges
qemu: thread naming not supported on this host
char device redirected to /dev/pts/0 (label charserial0)
qemu_madvise: Invalid argument
madvise doesn't support MADV_DONTDUMP, but dump_guest_core=off specified
qemu_madvise: Invalid argument
madvise doesn't support MADV_DONTDUMP, but dump_guest_core=off specified
qemu_madvise: Invalid argument
madvise doesn't support MADV_DONTDUMP, but dump_guest_core=off specified
qemu_madvise: Invalid argument
madvise doesn't support MADV_DONTDUMP, but dump_guest_core=off specified
qemu_madvise: Invalid argument
madvise doesn't support MADV_DONTDUMP, but dump_guest_core=off specified

I tried enabling some options in the host kernel (after googling the matter
for a while) but to change.

Any ideas about what could be wrong here?

Thanks!
Andrei
