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.

Fixed In Version: qemu-kvm-rhev-2.3.0-31.el7_2.23
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Due to a race condition in the virtio-blk dataplane, live migration of a guest in some cases failed with a "Virtqueue size exceeded" error message. This update prevents the race condition from occurring, and thus allows live migration to work more reliably.

Description Marcel Kolaja 2016-09-29 09:45:20 UTC 
This bug has been copied from bug #1378788 and has been proposed
to be backported to 7.2 z-stream (EUS).
Comment 3 Miroslav Rezanina 2016-10-14 06:34:05 UTC 
Fix included in qemu-kvm-rhev-2.3.0-31.el7_2.23
Comment 5 huiqingding 2016-10-19 08:37:58 UTC 
I can reproduce this bug using win8 32 bits guest, when running CrystalDiskMark IO stress, migrate guest. Migration is failed with "Virtqueue size exceeded". But I cannot reproduce this bug using RHEL7.3 guest with fio as bz1378788 comment 0.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
qemu-kvm-rhev-2.3.0-31.el7_2.22

Reproduce steps:
1. Boot guest with virtio-blk-pci device in the source host
-object iothread,id=thread0 -drive file=win8-32.raw,if=none,id=drive-ide0-0-0,format=raw,serial=mike_cao,cache=none -device virtio-blk-pci,iothread=thread0,drive=drive-ide0-0-0,id=ide0-0-0,bootindex=1

2. Boot guest in the destination host
-object iothread,id=thread0 -drive file=win8-32.raw,if=none,id=drive-ide0-0-0,format=raw,serial=mike_cao,cache=none -device virtio-blk-pci,iothread=thread0,drive=drive-ide0-0-0,id=ide0-0-0,bootindex=1 -incoming tcp:0:5800

3. Start CrystalDiskMark inside guest

4. Do migration

Results:
after step4, migration failed:
source host: (qemu) qemu-kvm: Virtqueue size exceeded
destination host: (qemu) qemu-kvm: Unknown combination of migration flags: 0
qemu-kvm: error while loading state section id 2(ram)
qemu-kvm: load of migration failed: Invalid argument
Comment 6 huiqingding 2016-10-20 06:49:39 UTC 
Test this bug using qemu-kvm-rhev-2.3.0-31.el7_2.23.

Do test as comment #5, after step4, migration can be finished normally and guest works well in destination side. 

Do test as bz1378788 comment 0. Do 10+ times migration, migration is successful and the fio benchmark continues running in rhel7.2.z guest.
