I was able to reproduce this in the way described, marking confirmed. I'm totally not familiar with the smb option, having never used it. I'm lowering the priority from Medium -> Low, since smb is not one of the most critical kvm features.
I'm also forwarding the bug upstream. Anthony, this bug is totally reproducible on qemu-kvm 0.12.3, as described in the initial report. Can you confirm it against upstream code? Are the invocations/options correct? Is this expected to work? ** Changed in: qemu-kvm (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed ** Changed in: qemu-kvm (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium => Low ** Also affects: qemu Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: qemu Status: New => Confirmed -- kvm smb server hogs cpu guest freeze https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/474968 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to qemu-kvm in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
