Created attachment 361179 [details] /var/log/messages This is easily repeatable - I assign a physical USB audio device to the VM and within a few seconds I get a complete crash of the guest. Once I saw the Windows 'you've got hardware' bubble show up. 2.6.30.5-43.fc11.x86_64 libvirt-0.6.2-17.fc11.x86_64 virt-manager-0.7.0-5.fc11.x86_64 qemu-system-x86-0.10.6-4.fc11.x86_64 qemu-img-0.10.6-4.fc11.x86_64 qemu-common-0.10.6-4.fc11.x86_64
Please provide some details about the guest - the libvirt XML from 'virsh dumpxml GUESTNAME", and if you're using virt-maanger to attach the device, then the $HOME/.virt-manager/virt-manager.log log file. Also the output of 'lsusb -v' on the host OS.

just FYI, the USB device works properly outside of the VM.
and I just tried adding the label printer to the VM and printed a perfect label, so USB, in general, seems to be working.
Bill: I see this in your logs: Sep 16 00:09:08 zpm kernel: qemu-kvm[6966]: segfault at 2903020 ip 0000000000409bfc sp 00007fff8aa02e50 error 4 in qemu-kvm[400000+1da000] We really need to get a stack trace of the qemu-kvm process when it segfaults https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/StackTraces It's not easy to get a stack trace, but you could try installing qemu-debuginfo and then attaching to the qemu-kvm process using gdb qemu-kvm pid', cause the process to crash and then do 'thread apply all bt full' Thanks
hrm, if I attach to it (sudo or as root) with gdb the GUI becomes unresponsive. If I quit gdb the GUI starts back up again. First I've seen that kind of behavior - any suggestions? I got all the debuginfos installed that gdb asked for.
You need to do 'cont' inside gdb so that the process starts running again

Excellent stuff Bill, that helps an awful lot FWIW, I can't reproduce here with a USB headset and Windows XP VM We fixed one memory corruption issue in 0.10.6-5 which just might fix the problem, but I doubt it. Could you try with that version from updates? No need to get another stack trace
Tried the update - sorry to say, no improvement. The USB headset sounds like a fair test. I'll see if I can find an XP disk in my stack of old discs.
I'm seeing a similar crash adding a USB Logitech QuickCam Pro 9000 webcam.
I also have a similar situation. In syslog I get: localhost kernel: qemu-kvm[21371]: segfault at 6874631c ip 00569f43 sp bf8e3230 error 4 in ld-2.10.1.so[556000+20000] I have a Atmel JTAGICEmkII USB device that is connected. Setting it as a physical device in the KVM works and I can see it in the WindowsXP guest. But as soon as I turn of the power on the USB device it crashes. I am running Fedora 11 (32 bit) with the latest updates.
This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database. Reassigning to the new owner of this component.
Does this issue reproduce with Fedora 12?
(In reply to comment #19) > Does this issue reproduce with Fedora 12? No, I just tested with Fedora 12 (with all latest updates as of this date). I works OK. I used virsh to connect the device and tried to switch the device of and reconnect. It all went well. No seg.fault. So I conclude that this error has been fixed. Using: libvirt-0.7.1-15.fc12.i686 virt-manager-0.8.2-1.fc12.noarch qemu-system-x86-0.11.0-13.fc12.i686 qemu-img-0.11.0-13.fc12.i686 qemu-common-0.11.0-13.fc12.i686 Thanks a lot!
No segfault here either - Vista on f12 with virt-preview. Sound output stinks, but that's another problem.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 11 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 11. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '11'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 11's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 11 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 11 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2010-06-25. Fedora 11 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
