[uml-devel] Network related UML Crashing

["Dave Humphreys (Bob)" <dave@bob-the-boat.me.uk>]

Re: [uml-devel] "Couldn't grant pty"

Now that I have been able to run the Debiam 32 bit root_fs, I have returned to 
the network related crashing.

This is by way of a status update, I will do more to tie down what is required 
to demonstrate the problem as simply as possible.

However:

root@DEB1-32:~# rsync --archive --progress 10.0.10.30:/var/imap/ /var/imap/
The authenticity of host '10.0.10.30 (10.0.10.30)' can't be established.

This is what happened on the Debian 32 bit system with the 3.8.0-rc3 UML 
kernel.

The DEB1 UML is now completely dead and locked up, no further messages escaped 
after this point.

If I try to kick it with uml_mconsole:

bash-4.1# uml_mconsole DEB1
(DEB1) halt

and nothing more happens.

10.0.10.30 is another 32 bit UML.

DEB1-32 is the Debian UML, with an IP address of 10.0.10.31.

Networking is via mcast.

This behaviour is consistent with what I have found all along.

I have seen the same on a 32 bit UML running on a genuinely 32 bit machine 
that is remote to my current location and which I access via the Internet, so 
the problem arises using real ethernet (via tun-tap) as well as mcast; and in 
a genuine 32 bit environment.

I will try to characterise this more fully, and simplify the method of causing 
failure as much as possible.

I still believe that there is a real problem here, not just me doing something 
stupid.

David
