Public bug reported:
After a recent upgrade I can't start a Windows 10 VM anymore, QEMU
crashes with the error message:
error: Failed to start domain win10
error: internal error: qemu unexpectedly closed the monitor:
qemu-system-x86_64: /build/qemu-v_zvmu/qemu-2.11+dfsg/util/aio-posix.c:592:
aio_poll: Assertion `in_aio_context_home_thread(ctx)' failed.
I was able to resurrect the VM by removing the iothread-related elements
from the domain definition:
<domain type='kvm'>
...
<iothreads>1</iothreads>
...
<controller type='scsi' index='0' model='virtio-scsi'>
<driver iothread='1'/>
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x04'
function='0x0'/>
</controller>
...
</domain>
The domain XML is attached.
I'm using virtio-scsi and not virtio-blk because I use trimming to keep
my QCOW image small(er). Would be great if I could continue to use this
with iothreads enabled.
