RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Marcus Sorensen 2015-07-14 19:02:50 UTC 
Description of problem:

Creating a snapshot, then deleting a snapshot, on a domain with multiple disks fails to delete internal snapshots on all disks but the first.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

qemu-kvm-ev 2.1.2-23.el7_1.3 (and also checked newer version in oVirt 3.6

How reproducible:

On domain with multiple qcow2 disks:
1. virsh snapshot-create <domain>
2 .virsh snapshot-delete <domain> <snapshotname>
3. do 'qemu-img info' on all disk files attached to domain, and note that disks still contain qcow2 snapshots. This further causes problems for subsequent snapshot-create


Actual results:
some qcow2 disks have snapshot


Expected results:
all qcow2 disks have no snapshot


Additional info:

This is already fixed in qemu-kvm upstream. Just need to backport the patch and include it. I have backported the patch for my own use, but I'd like to see this fixed upstream so we don't have to maintain it.

    snapshot: fix referencing wrong variable in while loop in do_delvm
    
    The while loop variabal is "bs1",
    but "bs" is always passed to bdrv_snapshot_delete_by_id_or_name.
    Broken in commit a89d89d, v1.7.0.

Comment 1 Fabian Deutsch 2015-07-15 10:01:00 UTC 
This bug needs to be filed in the qemu or centos tracker, Node is just reusing this build.
Comment 2 Jan Kurik 2015-07-15 13:16:31 UTC 
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 23 development cycle.
Changing version to '23'.

(As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 23 development
cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 23 End Of Life. Thank you.)

Comment 3 Marcus Sorensen 2015-07-15 16:05:37 UTC 
Thanks for moving it. Ideally we'd like to see it end up in qemu-kvm-ev-2.1.2-23.el7_1.5 or similar, as built by http://cbs.centos.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=539. I must say it's a bit confusing trying to find who is responsible for the "ev" packages, I was going to try to submit a patch myself, but the CentOS qemu-kvm(1.5.3) isn't what we're after.
Comment 4 Sandro Bonazzola 2015-07-16 07:07:00 UTC 
Hi, I'm the one rebuilding qemu-kvm-ev from qemu-kvm-rhev for CentOS Virt SIG.
Moving to qemu-kvm-rhev to let the maintainer know about this issue.

Hi Mrezanin,

Could you add this bz into rhel7.2 qemu-kvm-rhev erratum?

Best Regards,
Junyi

Reproduce this bug on qemu-kvm-rhev-2.1.2-16.el7.x86_64.

Host:
3.10.0-302.el7.x86_64
qemu-kvm-rhev-2.1.2-16.el7.x86_64

Guest:
win7-64

Steps:
1. Start vm with a data disk

2. Create snapshot
virsh # snapshot-create win7
Domain snapshot 1438851175 created

3. Delete snapshot.
virsh # snapshot-delete win7 1438851175
Domain snapshot 1438851175 deleted

4. Check data disk image

Result:
Snapshot still exist.

[root@dhcp-11-16 images]# qemu-img info win7.qcow2 
image: win7.qcow2
file format: qcow2
virtual size: 8.0G (8589934592 bytes)
disk size: 1.9M

All snapshot deleted by virsh command.

This bug has been fixed.
