[kvm-devel] [PATCH] lapic3: kvm: qemu: fix a possible deadlock situation in save/restore
kvm: qemu: fix a possible deadlock situation in save/restore
If a VM using userspace irqchip is saved when it's in HLT state,
and is restored to use the in-kernel irqchip, the HLT state flag
is also restored. This HLT flag in userspace HLT handling prevents
kvm kernel driver from being run. And at the same time, the original
userspace irqchip is now unused thus will not generate any interrupt
to wake up the HLT state. This patch fixes this deadlock situation
by dropping the HLT state at restore time

I think I'm fine either way. Avi suggested the snapshot-based implementation so Laurent and I started working in that direction. We are now close to finishing the basic functionality. That's not to say that our solution should be accepted because it's almost ready. I would like to reach consensus for the way in which all this should be implemented. The advantage of the snapshot-based approach is, as it has already been discussed, its backwards-compatibility. I also think that it requires less changes to the source code. I am not very familiar with QEMU development so I'm not able to tell whether or not qcow2 is open for breakage. I guess we decided to play it safe. The header-based implementation would be conceptually easier of course. It would have the added benefit of not having to deal with the possible use of an empty snapshot (i.e., one with command line options) in loadvm. That's the only thing left to fix in our current implementation. As I said, I'm fine either way. I have a final tomorrow, but after that I will post our patches for review.

Re: [kvm-devel] Storing command line options in qcow2 images
I don't think adding annotations as snapshots is the right approach. I think proper support should be added in the header. I wouldn't be too concerned with breaking compatibility in qcow2. That's why it's qcow2 and not just an updated version of qcow, qcow2 is still, AFAIK, open for breakage.

[kvm-devel] paravirtualized block devices
Hi, I'm interested in the performance of paravirtualized block devices under KVM. I've seen some previous posts about various patches. I was wondering what the current state of their development is and where I could find a simple how-to to get them set up? I realize this request may be vague, I'm a bit of a noob to KVM, if I can provide further details please let me know. Thanks, Cam - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

The guest has 1G ram and 1G swap. Also I found that the guest (if there isn't any swap available) will die if all the memory fills up. kvm had issues when that happened and it didn't release any of the memory back to the host when the guest died and the process was killed. I'm not sure if this had something to do with it or not gcc does tend to generate some huge DFA's when it compiles and could have filled up 2G with of memory and swap...

If you boot it in an smp configuration, however, it will update its kernel, and the new kernel will exhibit the problem, even if booted later with a single vcpu. The guest will consume 100% cpu even though kvm_stat shows 6000 exits/sec, which leads me to suspect the idle loop is spinning instead of executing a 'hlt' instruction. -- error compiling committee.c: too many arguments to function - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: yunfeng (yunfeng) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: the speed of booting windows guest is very slow Initial Comment: The speed of booting windows guest is very slow. On a harwich/paxiville with 16Lps, from starting boot to network started the time-comsuming is more than 4 minutes. And "top" on host shows the cpu usage of qemu is always >100% while booting windows guest. Date of start boot Mon Aug 6 15:24:00 CST 2007 Date of network started.
