Hi,
I experience VM lockups after live migration. These lockups usually lasts for 2-5 minutes with 100% CPU usage and the VM is not responding and the network and disk graphs are showing a 200-400 petabyte spike. After the lockup the clock inside the VM is off from 16 to 360 secods. The VMs are Ubuntu's with 3.8, 3.11 and 3.13 kernels or Debians with 3.10 and 3.14 kernels. It's a bit hard to willingly reproduce because it seems to me that it happens randomly, but at least 50% of the migrations ending up like this. I'm experiencing this problem since 3.2. With 3.1 running 2.6.32 I didn't have this lockup problem. I have moved to the 3.10 host kernel because I have a few FreeBSD VMs which weren't able to boot on a host with the 2.6.32 kernel.
The VMs using the kvm64 CPU type and the hosts have identical CPUs. I have frequency scaling enabled, but I've tested the migration with scaling disabled and the issue was present. Do you have any suggestion I should try?
Best regards,
Mate
