Thanks for the responses,

I'm not sure if my problem is the same as Roland's, but it definitely sounds
plausible.  I had been running ntpdate in the host to synchronize time every hour (in a cron job), so it sounds as if we could be seeing the same issue.

I'll spend some time trying to reproduce it with and without the ntpdate cron
job and see if I can get it to go away.

As for providing kvm_stat output - is kvm-78 OK?  On kvm-79, I've been 
hitting the same compiler errors on kvm-79 as described in Bug #2287677 
(undeclared kvm_arch_do_ioperm)

Thanks,
Chris

I've have setup a couple virtual machines and they work great... for anywhere
between 2-24 hours.  But then, for no reason I can determine, they just go 100%
busy and stop responding.

My basic setup is:
   Ubuntu 8.10 server running on both host and guests.
   kvm version is the one from the Ubuntu distribution (kvm-72)
   Kernel is Ubuntu 8.10 kernel (2.6.27-7-server)
   
The two VMs are both run like:
     kvm -daemonize \
     -hda Imgs/ndev_root.img \
     -m 1024 -cdrom ISOs/ubuntu-8.10-server-amd64.iso      \
     -vnc :1 -net nic,macaddr=DE:AD:BE:EF:04:04,model=e1000 \
     -net tap,ifname=tap1,script=/home/chris/kvm/qemu-ifup.sh 

(With different disk imgs, vnc addresses and macaddrs)

The disk images are raw format:
    qemu-img create -f raw 80G Imgs/ndev_root.img

I've tried running with these options, and in different combos:

    -no-kvm-pit 
    -no-kvm-irqchip
    -no-acpi 

They don't seem to help much.  If anything, -no-kvm-irqchip seems to cause more
troubles.

I tried running with -no-kvm and it won't boot at all.

I also built my own 2.6.27.4 kernel, from kernel.org, and built my own version
of kvm-78, but saw the same behavior.

Anyone have any advice how I can resolve these hangs?  When the setup works,
it's a beautiful setup and I love kvm.  But with the 100% busy hangs I can't
really continue with it.

Thanks!
Chris
