Do you think this is related to networking ? I ask because there was no
network activity going on.

apt is just an example. The packages were all already downloaded and
there was no network activity. Rather, there was block I/O.

One thing I noticed, which may or may not be useful to this report. I
was booting the uml guest and immediately logging into it and running
the block I/O. And the segfault would occur.

If I, instead, booted the uml vm and let it remain idle for a minute or
so and then did the I/O, it worked fine. So I am not sure if there is
any lazy initialization happening in the background which gets
corrupted during immediate hot boot I/O.

On the other hand, if you think there can be any number of commands to
run locally that could generate more information, please assist me so.

Thanks,
Ritesh
