Public bug reported:
What happens:
When I pass trough my CH340G (very common USB-TTL serial module) with
high-baud data coming in to my Windows 10 VM. qemu segfaults and dirtily
shuts down my VM at some random point. The higher the baudrate, the more
likely it is to happen. 921600 means the death to my VM in somewhere
between 10 seconds and a few minutes. There's no blue screen or
anything, it's qemu dying and taking the VM with it.
So far I've also determined:
* It does not crash as often on lower baudrates.
* It does not seem to crash if there's no data coming in.
* It does not matter if something is reading the data or not.
* It does not matter what software is reading the serial device.
What should happen:
Qemu shouldn't crash on a device being passed trough.
System details:
Host - Ubuntu 20.04, qemu-system-common 4.2-3ubuntu6.1 (and everything
else as well latest from repository)
VM - Windows 10, latest updates installed
