Title:
Hangs on HTTP errors when using the curl block driver
Status in QEMU:
Expired
Bug description:
Hi,
It seems that qemu-kvm does not handle HTTP errors gracefully when
using the curl block driver and a synchronous request is made (i.e.
one using bdrv_read_em() for example). In these cases, if an HTTP
error (such as 404 or 416) is returned, the aio thread exits but the
main thread never finishes waiting for I/O completion, thus freezing
KVM.
Versions affected:
At least 0.11.1 and 0.12.4 were tested and found to be affected.
How to reproduce:
Simply specify a non-existing path for an HTTP URL as a CDROM drive.
kvm -drive file=test.img,format=qcow2,if=ide,index=0,boot=on -drive
file=http://127.0.0.1/static/test1.iso,media=cdrom,index=2,if=ide -boot c
qemu-kvm will hang on boot using 100% cpu as it will try to open the
block device. At that point, the backtrace is (qemu-kvm-0.12.4):
