Fix already upstream, patch looks right, Daniel Hi IBM , Would you please update your pkgs to the version under http://veillard.com/libvirt/6.1/x86_64/ . And try if the bug is fixed already . Thanks Vivian Bian ------- Comment From gerhard.stenzel.com 2011-04-08 10:53 EDT------- We did not observe this issue with snap1 anymore .. so I think we can close this bugzilla. According to comment #7 , set bug status to VERIFIED An advisory has been issued which should help the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed with a resolution of ERRATA. For more information on therefore solution and/or where to find the updated files, please follow the link below.

---Problem Description--- While doing some testing with Qemu and creating huge logfiles we encountered the case where the VM could not start anymore due to the lseek() to the end of the Qemu VM's log file failing. Machine Type = HS22 ---Steps to Reproduce--- To reproduce this error, you could do the following: dd if=/dev/zero of=/var/log/libvirt/qemu/<name of VM>.log bs=1024 count=) and you should get an error like this: error: Failed to start domain <name of VM> error: Unable to seek to -2147482651 in /var/log/libvirt/qemu/<name of VM>.log: Success Userspace rpm: libvirt-0.8.7-11.el6 qemu driver: fix positioning to end of log file The attached patch from Stefan Berger is already in the libvirt upstream git. commit id is 0922ff2feaeca786f14f21a369f45aa0f7cc06dc The patch is only a one liner and fixes an problem which has also been observed during 802.1Qbg support testing where virtual machines machines were migrated a lot.
