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 Pei Zhang 2015-09-15 02:45:41 UTC 
Description of problem:
When drive-mirror from raw disk to qcow2 disk, the guest hang.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Host:rhel7.2
Kernel:3.10.0-315.el7.x86_64
qemu-kvm-rhev:qemu-kvm-rhev-2.3.0-22.el7.x86_64

Guest: rhel 6.7z
Kernel:2.6.32-573.7.1.el6.x86_64


How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1.boot guest with a raw disk
# /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -name rhel6.7z -machine pc-i440fx-rhel7.2.0,accel=kvm \
-cpu SandyBridge -m 4G,slots=256,maxmem=40G -numa node \
-smp 4,sockets=2,cores=2,threads=1 \
-uuid 82b1a01e-5f6c-4f5f-8d27-3855a74e6b61 \
-netdev tap,id=hostnet0 \
-device virtio-net-pci,netdev=hostnet0,id=net0,mac=12:54:00:5c:88:61 \
-device qxl-vga,id=video0,ram_size=67108864,vram_size=67108864,vgamem_mb=16 \
-vnc 0.0.0.0:1 \
-monitor stdio \
-qmp tcp:0:5555,server,nowait \
-serial unix:/tmp/monitor,server,nowait \
-drive file=/mnt/disk2/rhel6.7_virtio.raw,format=raw,if=none,id=drive-virtio-blk0,werror=stop,rerror=stop \
-device virtio-blk-pci,drive=drive-virtio-blk0,id=virtio-blk0 \

2. drive-mirror to qcow2 disk, guest hang.
{ "execute": "drive-mirror", "arguments": { "device": "drive-virtio-blk0","target": "/mnt/disk3/mirror0.qcow2", "format": "qcow2", "mode":
"absolute-paths", "sync": "full", "speed": 9223372036854775807, "on-source-error": "stop","on-target-error": "stop" } }


Actual results:
Guest hang.


Expected results:
Guest works well.

Additional info:
Comment 1 Pei Zhang 2015-09-15 05:22:54 UTC 
More additional infos:

1. qeury drive-mirror job in qmp (twice)
{ "execute" : "query-block-jobs", "arguments" : {} }
{"return": [{"io-status": "ok", "device": "drive-virtio-blk0", "busy": false, "len": 0, "offset": 0, "paused": false, "speed": 9223372036854775807, "ready": false, "type": "mirror"}]}

{ "execute" : "query-block-jobs", "arguments" : {} }
{"return": [{"io-status": "ok", "device": "drive-virtio-blk0", "busy": false, "len": 0, "offset": 0, "paused": false, "speed": 9223372036854775807, "ready": false, "type": "mirror"}]}

2. qemu still shows  guest is running(actually hang)
(qemu) info status
VM status: running

3. In host( no other applications except qemu), always 1/8 cpus sy is 100%.

Can you check if that fixes the error:

I retested with the latest qemu-kvm-rhev-2.3.0-23.el7, the guest works well. KVM QE does not sure if this is same issue with Bug 1259229. And this bug has been fixed.

Host:
Kernel:3.10.0-315.el7.x86_64
qemu-kvm-rhev:qemu-kvm-rhev-2.3.0-23.el7.x86_64

Steps:
1. boot guest with a raw disk
# /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -name rhel6.7z -machine pc-i440fx-rhel7.2.0,accel=kvm \
-cpu SandyBridge -m 4G,slots=256,maxmem=40G -numa node \
-smp 4,sockets=2,cores=2,threads=1 \
-uuid 82b1a01e-5f6c-4f5f-8d27-3855a74e6b61 \
-netdev tap,id=hostnet0 \
-device virtio-net-pci,netdev=hostnet0,id=net0,mac=12:54:00:5c:88:61 \
-device qxl-vga,id=video0,ram_size=67108864,vram_size=67108864,vgamem_mb=16 \
-vnc 0.0.0.0:1 \
-monitor stdio \
-qmp tcp:0:5555,server,nowait \
-serial unix:/tmp/monitor,server,nowait \
-drive file=/mnt/disk4/rhel6.7_virtio.raw,format=raw,if=none,id=drive-virtio-blk0,werror=stop,rerror=stop \
-device virtio-blk-pci,drive=drive-virtio-blk0,id=virtio-blk0 \

2. drive-mirror to qcow2 disk, guest hang.
{ "execute": "drive-mirror", "arguments": { "device": "drive-virtio-blk0","target": "/mnt/disk3/mirror0.qcow2", "format": "qcow2", "mode":
"absolute-paths", "sync": "full", "speed": 9223372036854775807, "on-source-error": "stop","on-target-error": "stop" } }
{"return": {}}
{"timestamp": {"seconds": 1442373542, "microseconds": 77287}, "event": "BLOCK_JOB_READY", "data": {"device": "drive-virtio-blk0", "len": 21475688448, "offset": 21475688448, "speed": 9223372036854775807, "type": "mirror"}}

3. reopen 
{"execute": "block-job-complete", "arguments": { "device": "drive-virtio-blk0"} }
{"return": {}}
{"timestamp": {"seconds": 1442373572, "microseconds": 995752}, "event": "BLOCK_JOB_COMPLETED", "data": {"device": "drive-virtio-blk0", "len": 21476147200, "offset": 21476147200, "speed": 9223372036854775807, "type": "mirror"}}

(qemu) info block
drive-virtio-blk0: /mnt/disk3/mirror0.qcow2 (qcow2)
    Cache mode:       writeback
...

4. Guest works well. After reboot guest sever times, it still works well.
