Currently qemu simply doesn't change the state of virtio link when the tap is brought down. It simply notifies it, but the notification doesn't do anything. The comment says that this is on purpose because some disconnected devices can still communicate. However, this is not the case in case vhost is used. It might make sense for virtio to disable the link in the case vhost is enabled. Currently testing this implementation. Fix included in qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.425.el6 Reproduced this bug with qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.398.el6 Steps: 1.Boot rhel6.4GA guest: # /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -cpu Penryn -m 2G -smp 2,sockets=1,cores=2,threads=1 -M pc -enable-kvm -name rhel6u4 -nodefaults -nodefconfig -vga std -monitor stdio -drive file=/home/rhel6u4/qiguo1.qcow2,if=none,id=drive-virtio-disk0,format=qcow2,werror=stop,rerror=stop,aio=native,cache=none -device virtio-blk-pci,drive=drive-virtio-disk0,id=virtio-disk0 -vnc :20 -netdev tap,id=hostnet0,vhost=on,script=/etc/qemu-ifup -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=hostnet0,id=virtio-netpci0,mac=54:52:1b:36:1a:02 2.After guest bootup, turn down the link of tap under hmp (qemu) set_link hostnet0 off 3.Reboot guest Result:During booting up, guest spend long time on waiting for dhcp to return the address on a link whose backend is down. So this bug is reproduced. Verify this bug with qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.428.el6.x86_64 Steps as above Result:when guest is booting, when failed to get the address, it quickly boot continuesly, but not waiting anymore. So this bug is fixed and verified by qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.428.el6.x86_64 Since the problem described in this bug report should be resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a resolution of ERRATA.

Created attachment 750873 [details] tty1 can not login Description of problem: Boot a rhel6.4(w/ GUI) guset w/ vhost=on, diable the tap link via hmp, and then do "system-reset", this guest boot stalled at "starting certmonger"(tty1). But can access system via other console terminal, like tty2 ... ttyS0. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): host kernel:# uname -r 2.6.32-380.el6.x86_64 # rpm -q qemu-kvm qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.369.el6.x86_64 Guest kernel: # uname -r 2.6.32-358.el6.x86_64 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1.Boot RHEL6.4 guest w/ vhost=on # /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -cpu Penryn -m 2G -smp 2,sockets=1,cores=2,threads=1 -M pc -enable-kvm -name rhel6u4 -nodefaults -nodefconfig -vga std -monitor stdio -drive file=/home/qiguo1.qcow2,if=none,id=drive-virtio-disk0,format=qcow2,werror=stop,rerror=stop,aio=native,cache=none -device virtio-blk-pci,drive=drive-virtio-disk0,id=virtio-disk0 -vnc :20 -netdev tap,id=hostnet0,vhost=on,script=/etc/qemu-ifup -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=hostnet0,id=virtio-netpci0,mac=54:52:1b:36:1a:02 2.after boot up, under hmp, disable tap link (qemu) set_link hostnet0 off 3.Reset guest under hmp (qemu) system_reset Actual results: Guest boot stalled at "starting certmonger". Expected results: Guest can boot up successfully on tty1 Additional info: 1.sendkey ctrl-alt-f2, can access the system via tty2, and from serial console can login system too. 2.Just happened w/ vhost=on.
