You have been subscribed to a public bug: Description of problem: - qemu socket becomes full, causing qemu to send incomplete SET_VRING_CALL messages to vhost-user backend (without proper fd set in ancillary data). - after some time, some interrupts are lost, causing the VM to stop transmitting packets.
How reproducible: Run a stress tests of a vhost-user interface using an UDP traffic generator. Traffic generator (IXIA) was connected to 2 physical ports that are in turn connected to 2 virtio ports through a linux bridge, VM (running linux) doing routing to forward packets between the 2 virtio ports. When traffic reaches high pps rates of small packets, Actual results: - VM stop transmitting packets Expected results: - VM should never stop transmitting packets Additional info: We do propose a fix at: http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2015-12/msg00652.html ** Affects: qemu (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: 6wind -- vhost-user: qemu stops processing packets under high load of traffic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1556306 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to qemu in Ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
