Bugs ==== DOOM-O-METER: 230 bugs open 1 week ago, up to 238 now. Many of these are duplicates from abrt auto filing, but We still have a lot of work to do! = Important = == kernel == https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=545851 KVM/networking-related crash A patch has been submitted upstream, and this should be fixed with the next kernel update. == kvm == https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=559717 KVM/Qemu 0.12.2 guest: WARNING: at block/blk-core.c:336 This has been fixed in the most recent rawhide and virt-preview builds. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=555788 SIGTRAP leakage between separate virtual machines Patches have been posted for this, and a resolution is coming soon. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=478317 almost 9 thousand syscalls per second while idle This is believed to be a result of the USB Tablet device, but several users have noticed high host CPU usage while guests were idle. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=544339 Segfaults logged from kvm (qemu-kvm) resulting in guest sudden crash and data loss A number of users complaining of guests crashing and sometimes taking the host with them. This appears to be related to sound emulation. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=544940 reattach virtio to rhel{5,6} guests will cause qemu-kvm crash == libvirt == https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=547045 libvirt can generate bogus node device XML libvirt has a function for escaping XML strings that we clearly forgot to use here. In addition though we probably need to check where this garbage is coming from, because in this particular case we probably shouldn't be including the element at all. _______________________________________________ virt mailing list [email protected] https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/virt
