Bug ID: 65081
Summary: Starting a second guest with -smp 2 makes the first
guest very slow and the second one hang (or also very
slow)
Product: Virtualization
Version: unspecified
Kernel Version: 3.12
Hardware: All
OS: Linux
Tree: Mainline
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P1
Component: kvm
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Regression: No
I think this first occured when I upgraded the kernel to 3.11 and qemu to
1.6.1. I am now running kernel version 3.12 and the problem still exists.
If I start a first KVM guest with -smp 2 it runs fine. As soon as I start
another KVM guest on the same host also with -smp 2, the first one gets
extremely slow. I can type one character per second via ssh. I do not see any
messages from the second guest, so it seems to hang or is very slow.
If I start the second kVM guest without -smp 2 both guests seem to work fine.
I get the following messages on the host, but I do not know whether they are
relevant.
kvm: SMP vm created on host with unstable TSC; guest TSC will not be reliable
qemu-system-x86: sending ioctl 5326 to a partition!

It is likely that this is not enough information to find the bug, so I would
appreciate any help on what I can do to obtain more information about what
might be happening here.
