64bit guests are unusable with vmmouse installed.

Running kvm on AMD 64 bit, this problem occurs for 64 guests regardless
of the guest mouse driver (mouse or vmmouse). It does not affect 32bit
guests.

[Bug 553081] Re: [lucid kvm-qemu]High cpu usage when moving mouse

2010-07-10 Thread Luke Hollins
This is happening to me with Lucid 64 using KVM on Fedora. The mouse moving 
normally causes Lucid to grind to a halt and the mouse becomes barely usable. 
If I stop moving it for a minute it works again but basically the system 
becomes unusable (I had to reboot between running vmmouse_detect and viewing 
Xorg.0.log). 
 I run qemu like this:
 qemu-kvm -M pc -m 2048 -hda images/lucid64a -net nic -net user -usb 

vmmouse_detect returns 1, I'm using an AMD 620 CPU

Here's the mouse info from Xorg's log:

I have noticed the same issue with mouse movements causing high cpu
usage (100% on two occasions_) locking out the kvm

this is an important issue to resolve as it can quite easily render your
KVM useless  I actually completely lose ability to ssh in to virtual
machine at this point.

Just a precision (may not be obvious to everyone): xserver-xorg-input-
vmmouse has to be uninstalled on the virtualized system, not in the
hosting system. Which is not very convenient when running a live CD,
because the user has to install it, then restart the X server (each time
he runs the liveCD).

[Bug 553081] Re: [lucid kvm-qemu]High cpu usage when moving mouse

2010-05-14 Thread Brian Pitts
I'm seeing almost the same behavior in an 8.04.4 guest on a 10.04 host.

The mouse pointer movement in the guest was ABYSMALLY slow until I
edited /etc/X11/xorg.conf to use 'mouse' instead of 'vmmouse'. After
doing that and restarting X, mouse performance inside the guest matched
that of the host. I lost the ability to seamlessly transition between
the virt-manager window and the host, but this is a minor convenience.
Having the mouse pointer move in conjunction with my physical mouse is a
necessity.

I did not notice the high CPU usage that others are reporting in this
bug.

I am attempting to install Lubuntu, but I am getting the same behavior with the 
live cd (there is no alt install yet).
The problem here is that clicking install causes the screen to flicker and the 
installation dialog keeps moving down...I suspect this to be caused by this bug 
since I have experienced similar issues when running ubuntu with kvm and 
vmmouse active.

[Bug 553081] Re: [lucid kvm-qemu]High cpu usage when moving mouse

2010-05-08 Thread Fabien SK
Unlike Ezra Reeves, I only have the mouse issue. When I move my mouse, the 
xorg process of the VM goes to 100% (I can get more CPU usage if I enable 
many processors), and so does the KVM process. It happens:
- with KVM native display or VNC
- using KVM directly or through libvirt
The rest seems to be fine. VirtualBox doesn't have such an issue.

My configuration:
- 64bits
- physical system: Kubuntu 10.04
- virtualized system: Ubuntu or Kubuntu 10.04, 32bits or 64bits

No problem when virtualizing 9.10 on the same machine.

As I said before its not just vmmouse if I use virt-viewer to connect to
a vm that doesn't even have xorg installed and do a ls -R / I get 100%
CPU usage and the text scrolls at a snails pace. However if I ssh into
the vm and issue the same command it uses almost no CPU and scrolls very
fast like it would if I issued it from a terminal on the host.

I removed 1:12.6.5-4ubuntu1 and installed 1:12.6.5-2ubuntu4 from
launchpad, and the system was responsive after reboot.  Then, I
installed 1:12.6.5-4ubuntu1 back and the system had poor response again
after reboot.

What I don't understand though is that prior to today I had 1:12.6.5-2ubuntu4, 
but I had responsiveness issues then too.
I could try a fresh install tomorrow and see if I get the same results.

[Bug 553081] Re: [lucid kvm-qemu]High cpu usage when moving mouse

2010-04-01 Thread Marc Deslauriers
The vmmouse driver is used to have a transparent mouse between the
virtual machine and the desktop. ie: no need to press ctrl-alt to
release the mouse.

vmmouse worked automatically in jaunty, but was broken in Karmic. The
patch in 1:12.6.5-2ubuntu3 makes it get detected in Lucid again, and
enabled automatically.

Yes, the vmmouse driver is more CPU intensive than the regular mouse
emulation. Moving the mouse around rapidly in circles in a Lucid VM on
my machine results in 20-30% cpu usage. Under normal mouse usage, it
doesn't use that much.

How much CPU usage are you experiencing?

If I attempt to move the mouse from one end of the screen to the other, it 
pauses half way in between and cpu usage goes to 80% - 100% (measured in htop)
The lack of responsiveness makes it unusable.
I will try jaunty and see...I don't recall having this issue with it.

Removing vmmouse is a solution for me, but I don't think this should be
ignored.

2010-04-01 Thread lavinog
vmmouse_detect; echo $? produces 1, should that mean something?

With the fixed vmmouse package, vmmouse_detect should return 0. If it
returns 1, xorg should not be using the vmmouse driver.

[Bug 553081] Re: [lucid kvm-qemu]High cpu usage when moving mouse

2010-04-01 Thread lavinog
If I am using kvm-qemu and not VMware, should the vmmouse driver be active?
I will double check with the vmmouse_detect thing, but xorg is logging:
(II) VMWARE(0): VMMOUSE DEVICE_INIT
(II) VMWARE(0): VMMOUSE DEVICE_ON
(II) VMWARE(0): vmmouse enabled
...
(II) VMWARE(0): vmmouse enable absolute mode
(II) VMWARE(0): vmmouse enable absolute mode

My version of kvm-qemu on the host is:
QEMU PC emulator version 0.11.0 (qemu-kvm-0.11.0)

Yes, vmmouse is the driver that kvm supports to enable the mouse cursor
automatically entering and leaving the guests window.
