I saw some VMs crashing when using a qemu-kvm build with --enable-vnc-thread. qemu-kvm-1.0[22646]: segfault at 0 ip 00007fec1ca7ea0b sp 00007fec19d056d0 error 6 in libz.so.1.2.3.3[7fec1ca75000+16000] qemu-kvm-1.0[26056]: segfault at 7f06d8d6e010 ip 00007f06e0a30d71 sp 00007f06df035748 error 6 in libc-2.11.1.so[7f06e09aa000+17a000] I had no time to debug further. It seems to happen shortly after migrating, but thats uncertain. At least the segfault in libz seems to give a hint to VNC since I cannot image of any other part of qemu-kvm using libz except for VNC server.

Corentin, I think you're right now the closest thing we have to a maintainer for VNC. Could you please just send out a pull request for those? hi all, i suspect there is still a problem with the threaded vnc server. its just a guess, but we saw a resonable number of vms hanging in the last weeks. hanging meaning the emulation is stopped and the qemu-kvm process does no longer react, not on monitor, not on vnc, not on qmp. why i suspect the threaded vnc server is that in all cases we have analyzed this happened with an open vnc session and only on nodes with the threaded vnc server enabled. it might also be the case that this happens at a resolution change. is there anything known or has someone an idea? we are running qemu-kvm 1.0.1 with vnc: don't mess up with iohandlers in the vnc thread vnc: Limit r/w access to size of allocated memory compiled in. unfortunately, i was not yet able to reproduce this with a debugger attached. thanks, peter > > Alex > ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 11+ messages in thread
