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

Roland,
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.
To answer your question, yes, it does appear that a tapdisk process is
still running (this is after the dom-U has hung):
[root@dom0-0-50-45-5d-6a-bc ~]# ps -aef | grep tapdisk
root 4135 1 0 15:42 ? 00:00:01 tapdisk
/dev/xen/tapctrlwrite1 /dev/xen/tapctrlread1
There is only one tap device, and the pid is the same as the single
candidate while the dom-U was still reachable.
The hand seems to occur on the first (significant?) disk write inside
the dom-U. For example:
-bash-3.00# dd if=/dev/zero of=./test-10MB bs=1k count=$((10*1024))
Has hung the dom-U, and I can no longer console or ssh into the dom-U.
Interestingly, on the dom-U, the qcow file has shrunk from its pervious
peak of > 1TB, and is now appearing modestly as:
[root@dom0-0-50-45-5d-6a-bc ~]# ls -als /mnt/instance_image_store_0/
total 1564432
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
1288 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2466816 Nov 10 16:09 2.qcow
It's all very confusing. I'd love it to work, of course. Let me know
what I can do to help with a diagnosis.
I'm running on the (binary) PAE-enabled 3.0.3 release.
Thanks and kind regards
Roland
