Description of problem:
qemu-img: Error while committing image

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.406.el6.x86_64
qemu-img-0.12.1.2-2.406.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:
2/10

Steps to Reproduce:

1. qemu-img create -f qcow2 /usr/local/staf/test/RHEV/kvm/autotest-devel/client/tests/virt/shared/data/images/sn1.qcow2 -b /usr/local/staf/test/RHEV/kvm/autotest-devel/client/tests/virt/shared/data/images/sles11sp3-64-virtio.qcow2
2.

3. shutdown guest, and 
qemu-img commit /usr/local/staf/test/RHEV/kvm/autotest-devel/client/tests/virt/shared/data/images/sn1.qcow2 


Actual results:
Error while committing image
echo $?
1

Expected results:
committing success

met this issue again, and 100% reproduce in
qemu-img-rhev-0.12.1.2-2.412.el6.x86_64
qemu-kvm-rhev-0.12.1.2-2.412.el6.x86_64

Comment 4 Kevin Wolf 2014-07-25 12:51:41 UTC
Can you please try running the 'qemu-img commit' command under strace -f and
post the output of it? I hope we can see this way what the exact error is.

I am trying get one

Hi Kevin,
log attached, pls check.

Comment 8 Kevin Wolf 2014-07-29 09:25:32 UTC
Are you sure you attached the log of a failing instance? It ends with this:

12930 write(1, "Image committed.\n", 17) = 17
12930 exit_group(0)                     = ?

This is the message for successful completion and it has exit code 0, too.

BTW, version as below:

# rpm -q qemu-kvm-rhev
qemu-kvm-rhev-0.12.1.2-2.431.el6.x86_64

Obviously, the reported output "Error while committing image" and the posted
strace don't match. If the message isn't there in the trace, it can't possibly
have been output.

If we can't get an strace and an observed output that match, I'll have to close
this as INSUFFICIENT_DATA. Any chance we can get more coherent information?

Hi Kevin,

As the C#8, I have tried run this on a customized autotest env for this bz,
only reproduce this once, and unfortunately the result is uesless on your side.
I believe re-run that script would have same result.

Due to the low reproducibility of this bz, it wont impact a lot, it's fine to close on my side.

Thanks,
Xiaoqing

Thanks, Xiaoqing. If you ever find some new information that could help with it,
feel free to reopen, but as you say, I will close it for now.
