Re: [Xen-users] Re: [Xen-devel] tap:qcow causes dom-U to hang in 3.0.3

Can you also verify whether there's an active tapdisk process running
in Dom0 for each tap:{aio,qcow} vbd. We are aware of a bug with the
qcow implementation that we hope to submit a fix for very soon. It's
likely that you are seeing the same issue.
Sorry, this is not what you asked for, but this is what an 'ls' of the
qcow file shows:
[root@dom0-0-50-45-5d-6a-bc ~]# ls -als /mnt/instance_image_store_0/
total 1564108
4 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Nov 10 15:42 .
8 drwxr-xr-x 8 root root 4096 Nov 7 17:56 ..
1563132 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1599078400 Nov 10 15:42 2
964 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1099645846016 Nov 10 15:50 2.qcow
It looks like the qcow file has grown to > 1000GB in (apparent) size(!)
Could this be the root of the problem?
At this stage the dom-U is still running, but the qcow file is clearly
not right. The file called '2' is a loopback image backing the qcow file.
The qcow overlay was created using '/usr/sbin/qcow-create $((10*1024))
/mnt/instance_image_store_0/2.qcow /mnt/instance_image_store_0/2'. I'm
guessing there's no danger in making the qcow overlay extent (10GB)
larger than the underlying loopback file extend (1.5GB) but please
correct me if I'm wrong.
Earlier, an ls of the same directory (soon after dom-U creation) looked
like:
[root@dom0-0-50-45-5d-6a-bc ~]# ls -als /mnt/instance_image_store_0/
total 1564052
4 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Nov 10 15:42 .
8 drwxr-xr-x 8 root root 4096 Nov 7 17:56 ..
1563132 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1599078400 Nov 10 15:42 2
908 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 925696 Nov 10 15:43 2.qcow
Could this be the root of the problem - i.e. something in the qcow
driver is getting it's offsets in the qcow file mangled?
Can I try to compile the qcow (tapdisk) driver with debug enabled? Where
would the output go?
