This is fixed in the 2.9.0 release with commit 537848ee62195fc06c328b1cd64f4218f404a7f1 Author: Michael Tokarev <m...@tls.msk.ru> Date: Fri Feb 3 12:52:29 2017 +0300 vnc: do not disconnect on EAGAIN When qemu vnc server is trying to send large update to clients, there might be a situation when system responds with something like EAGAIN, indicating that there's no system memory to send that much data (depending on the network speed, client and server and what is happening). In this case, something like this happens on qemu side (from strace): sendmsg(16, {msg_name(0)=NULL, msg_iov(1)=[{"\244\"..., 729186}], msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, 0) = 103950 sendmsg(16, {msg_name(0)=NULL, msg_iov(1)=[{"lz\346"..., 1559618}], msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, 0) = -1 EAGAIN sendmsg(-1, {msg_name(0)=NULL, msg_iov(1)=[{"lz\346"..., 1559618}], msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, 0) = -1 EBADF qemu closes the socket before the retry, and obviously it gets EBADF when trying to send to -1. This is because there WAS a special handling for EAGAIN, but now it doesn't work anymore, after commit 04d2529da27db512dcbd5e99d0e26d333f16efcc, because now in all error-like cases we initiate vnc disconnect. This change were introduced in qemu 2.6, and caused numerous grief for many people, resulting in their vnc clients reporting sporadic random disconnects from vnc server. Fix that by doing the disconnect only when necessary, i.e. omitting this very case of EAGAIN. Hopefully the existing condition (comparing with QIO_CHANNEL_ERR_BLOCK) is sufficient, as the original code (before the above commit) were checking for other errno values too. Apparently there's another (semi?)bug exist somewhere here, since the code tries to write to fd# -1, it probably should check if the connection is open before. But this isn't important.

Interesting place: 1. when stopped at grub interface, only arrow up and down key could trigger it, 2. only in zrle or tight mode, could work well in raw mode 2. it only triggered by remote connection, not happen if local vncviewer and vnc server A trace is attached.
