[Xen-devel] domU crash by large disk operations on dom0

[Matthias Ableitner <spam@xxxxxxx>]

Hi,

i've installed xen 3.1 as dom0 and windows 2003 as domU. While dom0 does 
big file operations, qemu-dm crashes with a segfault:
qemu-dm[18802]: segfault at 0000000000000000 rip 0000000000000000 rsp 
0000000041000c08 error 14
This happened while dom0 was cloning a snapshot from the partion, where 
domU lives. I can reproduce the bug, so i made a backtrace:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

I've added this to bug #542 but i don't know, if it's the same bug. 
Others seems to have the problem too, but i couldn't find a solution. My 
solution is to avoid big file operations, or stop the domU...
Others seems to have this problem too.


Best regards,

Matthias
