I've reproduced your IO hang with 2.0 and both 9b1786829aefb83f37a8f3135e3ea91c56001b56 and a096b3a6732f846ec57dc28b47ee9435aa0609bf applied. Reverting 9b1786829aefb83f37a8f3135e3ea91c56001b56 indeed fixes the problem (but reintroduces block-migration hang). It's seems like qemu bug rather than guest problem, as no-kvmclock parameters makes no difference. IO just stops, all qemu IO threads die off. Almost like it forgets to migrate them:-) I'm attaching backtrace from guest kernel and qemu and qemu command line. Going to compile 2.1-rc. -- mg
