The common denominator _seems_ to be virtio devices. I've managed to reproduce this reliably on a windows 10 (+ virtio-win-0.1.118) guest, always within 1 to 5 migrations, with a virtio-scsi hard drive and a virtio-net network device. (When I replace the virtio-net device with an e1000 it takes 10 or more migrations, and without virtio devices I have not (yet) been able to reproduce this problem. I also could not reproduce this with a linux guest. Also spice seems to improve the situation, but doesn't solve it completely). I've tested quite a few tags from qemu-git (v2.2.0 through v2.6.1, and 2.6.1 with the patches mentioned on qemu-stable by Peter Lieven) and the behavior is the same everywhere. The reproducibility seems to be somewhat dependent on the host hardware, which makes investigating this issue that much harder. Symptoms: After the migration the windows graphics stack just hangs. Background processes are still running (eg. after installing an ssh server I could still login and get a command prompt after the hang was triggered... not that I'd know what to do with that on a windows machine...) - commands which need no GUI access work, the rest just hangs there on the command line, too. It's also capable of responding to an NMI sent via the qemu monitor: it then seems to "recover" and manages to show the blue sad-face screen that something happened, reboots successfully and is usable again without restarting the qemu process in between. From there whole the process can be repeated. Here's what our command line usually looks like: /usr/bin/qemu -daemonize \ -enable-kvm \ -chardev socket,id=3Dqmp,path=3D/var/run/qemu-server/101.qmp,server,nowa= it -mon chardev=3Dqmp,mode=3Dcontrol \ -pidfile /var/run/qemu-server/101.pid \ -smbios type=3D1,uuid=3D07fc916e-24c2-4eef-9827-4ab4026501d4 \ -name win10 \ -smp 6,sockets=3D1,cores=3D6,maxcpus=3D6 \ -nodefaults \ -boot menu=3Don,strict=3Don,reboot-timeout=3D1000 \ -vga std \ -vnc unix:/var/run/qemu-server/101.vnc \ -no-hpet \ -cpu kvm64,hv_spinlocks=3D0x1fff,hv_vapic,hv_time,hv_reset,hv_vpindex,hv= _runtime,hv_relaxed,+lahf_lm,+sep,+kvm_pv_unhalt,+kvm_pv_eoi,enforce \ -m 2048 \ -device pci-bridge,id=3Dpci.2,chassis_nr=3D2,bus=3Dpci.0,addr=3D0x1f \ -device pci-bridge,id=3Dpci.1,chassis_nr=3D1,bus=3Dpci.0,addr=3D0x1e \ -device piix3-usb-uhci,id=3Duhci,bus=3Dpci.0,addr=3D0x1.0x2 \ -device usb-tablet,id=3Dtablet,bus=3Duhci.0,port=3D1 \ -device virtio-balloon-pci,id=3Dballoon0,bus=3Dpci.0,addr=3D0x3 \ -iscsi initiator-name=3Diqn.1993-08.org.debian:01:1ba48d46fb8 \ -drive if=3Dnone,id=3Ddrive-ide0,media=3Dcdrom,aio=3Dthreads \ -device ide-cd,bus=3Dide.0,unit=3D0,drive=3Ddrive-ide0,id=3Dide0,bootind= ex=3D200 \ -device virtio-scsi-pci,id=3Dscsihw0,bus=3Dpci.0,addr=3D0x5 \ -drive file=3D/mnt/pve/data1/images/101/vm-101-disk-1.qcow2,if=3Dnone,id= =3Ddrive-scsi0,cache=3Dwriteback,discard=3Don,format=3Dqcow2,aio=3Dthreads,= detect-zeroes=3Dunmap \ -device scsi-hd,bus=3Dscsihw0.0,channel=3D0,scsi-id=3D0,lun=3D0,drive=3D= drive-scsi0,id=3Dscsi0,bootindex=3D100 \ -netdev type=3Dtap,id=3Dnet0,ifname=3Dtap101i0,script=3D/var/lib/qemu-se= rver/pve-bridge,downscript=3D/var/lib/qemu-server/pve-bridgedown,vhost=3Don= \ -device virtio-net-pci,mac=3DF2:2B:20:37:E6:D7,netdev=3Dnet0,bus=3Dpci.0= ,addr=3D0x12,id=3Dnet0,bootindex=3D300 \ -rtc driftfix=3Dslew,base=3Dlocaltime \ -global kvm-pit.lost_tick_policy=3Ddiscard To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1618431/+subscriptions
