I wanted to make sure why different qemu configs make it trigger or not, and after finding seabios to be related the candidates were obvious.
Default config gets us: BIOS directory /usr/local/share/qemu The long conf had: --firmwarepath=/usr/share/qemu:/usr/share/seabios:/usr/lib/ipxe/qemu Adding that to the short config which had most things disabled made it break as well. Since it has much less moving parts having most other features disabled I'll continue to use that. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu- devel-ml, which is subscribed to QEMU. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1866870 Title: KVM Guest pauses after upgrade to Ubuntu 20.04 Status in QEMU: New Status in qemu package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Symptom: Error unpausing domain: internal error: unable to execute QEMU command 'cont': Resetting the Virtual Machine is required Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/asyncjob.py", line 75, in cb_wrapper callback(asyncjob, *args, **kwargs) File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/asyncjob.py", line 111, in tmpcb callback(*args, **kwargs) File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/object/libvirtobject.py", line 66, in newfn ret = fn(self, *args, **kwargs) File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/object/domain.py", line 1311, in resume self._backend.resume() File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/libvirt.py", line 2174, in resume if ret == -1: raise libvirtError ('virDomainResume() failed', dom=self) libvirt.libvirtError: internal error: unable to execute QEMU command 'cont': Resetting the Virtual Machine is required --- As outlined here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1813165/comments/15 After upgrade, all KVM guests are in a default pause state. Even after forcing them off via virsh, and restarting them the guests are paused. These Guests are not nested. A lot of diganostic information are outlined in the previous bug report link provided. The solution mentioned in previous report had been allegedly integrated into the downstream updates.
