Hello. Last day an apache 2.4 running inside a Debian9 linux bhyve VM locked up on one of my servers (FreeBSD 11.1-RELENG, GENERIC kernel) overloading the VM.
The VM uses a ZFS zvol blockdevice on top of a zpool, consisting of two mirrored SSDs. I was able to enter the VM through the bhyve console, kill and restart the stuck apache process and regain stability inside the VM. I found below output in the Linux dmesg and suspect the ext4 journaling to be the culprit. Has anyone experienced similar lockups running Linux inside a bhyve VM? At the time when this happened there was no high I/O on the VM zpool. Cheers, K. [1594985.015199] INFO: task jbd2/vda1-8:161 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
