Public bug reported: On the HiSilicon D06 system - a 96 core NUMA arm64 box - qemu-img frequently hangs (~50% of the time) with this command:
qemu-img convert -f qcow2 -O qcow2 /tmp/cloudimg /tmp/cloudimg2 Where "cloudimg" is a standard qcow2 Ubuntu cloud image. This qcow2->qcow2 conversion happens to be something uvtool does every time it fetches images. Once hung, attaching gdb gives the following backtrace: (gdb) bt #0 0x0000ffffae4f8154 in __GI_ppoll (fds=0xaaaae8a67dc0, nfds=187650274213760, timeout=<optimized out>, timeout@entry=0x0, sigmask=0xffffc123b950) at ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/ppoll.c:39 #1 0x0000aaaabbefaf00 in ppoll (__ss=0x0, __timeout=0x0, __nfds=<optimized out>, __fds=<optimized out>) at /usr/include/aarch64-linux-gnu/bits/poll2.h:77 #2 qemu_poll_ns (fds=<optimized out>, nfds=<optimized out>, timeout=timeout@entry=-1) at util/qemu-timer.c:322 #3 0x0000aaaabbefbf80 in os_host_main_loop_wait (timeout=-1) at util/main-loop.c:233 #4 main_loop_wait (nonblocking=<optimized out>) at util/main-loop.c:497 #5 0x0000aaaabbe2aa30 in convert_do_copy (s=0xffffc123bb58) at qemu-img.c:1980 #6 img_convert (argc=<optimized out>, argv=<optimized out>) at qemu-img.c:2456 #7 0x0000aaaabbe2333c in main (argc=7, argv=<optimized out>) at qemu-img.c:4975 Reproduced w/ latest QEMU git (@ 53744e0a182) ** Affects: qemu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu- devel-ml, which is subscribed to QEMU. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1805256 Title: qemu-img hangs on high core count ARM system Status in QEMU: New Bug description: On the HiSilicon D06 system - a 96 core NUMA arm64 box - qemu-img frequently hangs (~50% of the time) with this command: qemu-img convert -f qcow2 -O qcow2 /tmp/cloudimg /tmp/cloudimg2 Where "cloudimg" is a standard qcow2 Ubuntu cloud image.
