[Bug 1201632] New: kernel 5.3.18-150300.59.81-default: host fails to start qemu guests
http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1201632 Bug ID: 1201632 Summary: kernel 5.3.18-150300.59.81-default: host fails to start qemu guests Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: Leap 15.3 Hardware: x86-64 OS: openSUSE Leap 15.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel Assignee: kernel-bugs@opensuse.org Reporter: hsk17@mail.de QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- after latest kernel patch upgrade, i.e. from kernel-default-5.3.18-150300.59.76.1 to kernel-default-5.3.18-150300.59.81.1, on host, host fails to start libvirt/qemu guests: "virsh start guest" reports guest started, but guest remains inaccessible, and the console window within virt-manager stays at a pure black screen. reboot host to previous kernel 5.3.18-150300.59.76-default, and qemu guests start up as usual. i observed this on hosts running leap 15.3 with all patches installed. which further information about the case is needed? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

NB, after looking at the "related bugs", as far i had access to them: the host systems here are running stable with 59.81. it's starting up the qemu guests that does not work, i.e., the virtual console window stays completely black and silent. and: according to the boot log, 59.76, where qemu guest start up works, is running with Spectre V2 : Mitigation: Retpolines Spectre V2 : Spectre v2 / SpectreRSB mitigation: Filling RSB on context switch -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
