What is interesting is there is ~3MB of nulls in the .2 serial log. The
rcu stall is also:

[   88.261687]  serial8250_tx_chars+0xea/0x2b0
[   88.261689]  serial8250_handle_irq+0x1e9/0x330
[   88.261691]  serial8250_default_handle_irq+0x4a/0x90
[   88.261693]  serial8250_interrupt+0x66/0xc0
[   88.261696]  __handle_irq_event_percpu+0x54/0x1c0
[   88.261701]  handle_irq_event+0x3d/0x80

i.e. it is stalled in the serial TX path.

The big question is why is there so many nulls on the serial port. I
see a few on my local x86 test runs but only ~4kb, not megabytes of
them. I hadn't worked out where/what they are from yet.

I suspect something in the serial/kernel/qemu space isn't interacting
correctly.

Find the cause of the nulls and we might make progress on this.

Cheers,

Richard
