Package: qemu-system-x86 Version: 1:5.0-5 Severity: important I upgraded my qemu-system-x86 from 1:5.0-5 to 1:5.0-6 today (since it was just migrated to testing).
After upgrading, trying to boot a Xen HVM DomU (in this case named "windows") crashes immediately, with the following logs in /var/log/xen/xl-windows.log: > Waiting for domain windows (domid 1) to die [pid 2583] > Domain 1 has shut down, reason code 3 0x3 > Action for shutdown reason code 3 is destroy > Domain 1 needs to be cleaned up: destroying the domain > Done. Exiting now (reason code 3 means "crashed": https://xenbits.xen.org/gitweb/?p=xen.git;a=blob;f=xen/include/public/sched.h;hb=3fdc211b01b29f252166937238efe02d15cb5780#l178) I tried again with a minimal xl.cfg file, and it resulted in the same crash. The minimal xl.cfg contents: > name = "windows" > builder = "hvm" > vcpus = "4" > memory = "1024" > boot = "c" After downgrading qemu-system-x86 back down to 1:5.0-5, functionality was restored and the DomU was able to boot again. --- I vaguely remember these crash-at-boot problems are often caused by Xen and Qemu versions being out of sync. I see a new version of xen in unstable (4.11.4+24-gddaaccbbab-1), but not yet promoted to testing yet, so I haven't installed or tested it. However, if it ends up fixing the problem with qemu 1:5.0-6, then maybe the real bug is that qemu and xen releases should be coordinated to be promoted together? -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 5.7.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_AU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_AU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages qemu-system-x86 depends on: ii ipxe-qemu 1.0.0+git-20190125.36a4c85-5 ii libaio1 0.3.112-8 ii libasound2 1.2.2-2.3 ii libbrlapi0.7 6.0+dfsg-6 ii libc6 2.30-8 ii libcacard0 1:2.6.1-1 ii libcapstone3 4.0.1+really+3.0.5-2 ii libepoxy0 1.5.4-1 ii libfdt1 1.6.0-1 ii libgbm1 20.1.2-1 ii libgcc-s1 10.1.0-4 ii libglib2.0-0 2.64.3-2 ii libgnutls30 3.6.14-2 ii libibverbs1 29.0-1 ii libjpeg62-turbo 1:1.5.2-2+b1 ii libncursesw6 6.2-1 ii libnettle7 3.5.1+really3.5.1-2 ii libnuma1 2.0.12-1+b1 ii libpixman-1-0 0.36.0-1 ii libpmem1 1.8-1 ii libpng16-16 1.6.37-2 ii librdmacm1 29.0-1 ii libsasl2-2 2.1.27+dfsg-2 ii libseccomp2 2.4.3-1+b1 ii libslirp0 4.2.0-2 ii libspice-server1 0.14.3-1 ii libtinfo6 6.2-1 ii liburing1 0.6-3 ii libusb-1.0-0 2:1.0.23-2 ii libusbredirparser1 0.8.0-1+b1 ii libvdeplug2 2.3.2+r586-2.2+b1 ii libvirglrenderer1 0.8.2-2 ii libxendevicemodel1 4.11.4-1 ii libxenevtchn1 4.11.4-1 ii libxenforeignmemory1 4.11.4-1 ii libxengnttab1 4.11.4-1 ii libxenmisc4.11 4.11.4-1 ii libxenstore3.0 4.11.4-1 ii libxentoolcore1 4.11.4-1 ii qemu-system-common 1:5.0-6 ii qemu-system-data 1:5.0-6 ii seabios 1.13.0-1 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.11.dfsg-2 Versions of packages qemu-system-x86 recommends: ii ovmf 2020.05-2 ii qemu-system-gui 1:5.0-6 ii qemu-utils 1:5.0-6 Versions of packages qemu-system-x86 suggests: pn qemu-block-extra <none> ii qemu-system-data [sgabios] 1:5.0-6 pn samba <none> pn vde2 <none> -- no debconf information
