Created attachment 453682 [details] PATCH: spice-core: fix watching for write events Hi, Please include this patch in the next qemu build for F-14. If no build is done before GA, please do a build with just this patch. This fixes a few nasty hangs in qemu + spice virtual machines with Linux as guest. Thanks, Hans
Patch submitted upstream: http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/67913/
Not sure what you are patching, since that file doesn't exist in F14 qemu. I will take a look at backporting, but it will have to be as a zero day update. In the meantime, the F14 qemu tree is at http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/qemu-kvm-fedora.git
(In reply to comment #2) > Not sure what you are patching, since that file doesn't exist in F14 qemu. Ah, oopsee, the code in question is in spice.c in F14 qemu, other then the file name difference the patch should apply unmodified. Thanks, Hans
Created attachment 478491 [details] PATCH: spice: fix watching for write events Hi, I just ran into this again while testing a F14 spice update. Can we please get this fixed? This makes us (spice) look rather bad. If a user takes the trouble to install spice-agent and attempts to copy paste between guest and client, qemu will hang with 100% cpu usage because of this bug. Here is a git format-patch fromatted patch to be applied on the F-14 branch of: http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=qemu-kvm-fedora.git If it is ok with you I can prepare an F-14 qemu update myself and build and submit it to bodhi. While at it I can also tackle any other easy bugs / bugs with valid patches if there are any (you will need to point them out to me). Would that be ok? Regards, Hans
Fedora 14 has gone eol in the mean time, so this bug can be closed.
