Observations: 1) problem disappears when hv_stimer is removed 2) problem disappears when memory backing with huge pages is disabled 3) problem disappears when machine type is downgraded to pc-q35_3.0 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1811533/+subscriptions
