Description jamespharvey20 2015-08-11 00:58:48 UTC
managedsave/start appears to work, but VM is unusable due to non-stop
repeating uhci_hcd errors.

I can't remove the USB controller from QEMU, but I CAN remove it
through virsh edit.  Doing so eliminates the USB controller in the
guest, preventing non-stop repeating uhci_hcd errors.  (QEMU only lets
you remove the USB redirection entries, which didn't help.)

Using libvirt 1.2.18 (-1 Arch) and QEMU git-master (2.4.0.r40384.2d69736).

Installed using Q35 chipset.

I'm running QEMU git, which allows SCSI controller migration, so I can
attempt doing this.

==========
virsh # managedsave <vmname>

Domain <vmname> state saved by libvirt

virsh # start <vmname>

{{{ Then, viewing the VM console through QEMU, its screen is extremely

Comment 1 Cole Robinson 2016-04-10 21:43:17 UTC
Can you still reproduce with latest libvirt and qemu?
Can you provide your full VM XML?

FWIW this is either a guest OS issue or qemu q35 migration/managedsave issue, I doubt libvirt is responsible here, but I can help triage

Comment 2 Cole Robinson 2016-04-10 21:48:06 UTC
*** Bug 1252203 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Comment 3 Cole Robinson 2016-05-02 14:35:47 UTC
Since there's no response, closing as DEFERRED. But if anyone is still affected with newer libvirt versions, please re-open and we can triage from there
