* [Qemu-devel] Weird thing happen when the VM is stop! (0.12.3) @ 2010-04-09 9:32 Jun Koi 2010-04-09 13:20 ` Luiz Capitulino 0 siblings, 1 reply; 5+ messages in thread From: Jun Koi @ 2010-04-09 9:32 UTC (permalink / raw) To: qemu-devel Hi, I found something very funny happening with 0.12.3: it seems the VM is still running even I already stopped it. Here is how I verified that: Boot any OS (I checked with Windows XP and Ubuntu) with 0.12.3, and stop it any time after it booted up. Use "stop" command on monitor interface. Now the VM stops. Then in the same monitor interface, run "info registers" again and again. You can see that the value of EIP and EFLAGS still change once in a while. This should not happen, becaues the VM already stopped. I checked, and dont see this problem with 0.11.1. And this doesnt happen with the latest code in the git tree, either. Any idea on why this happens??? (My host is running Ubuntu 9.10, and I am using i386-softmmu/qemu to run VM on this experiment) Thanks, Jun ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread

If it fixes the problem we need it in stable, if it doesn't you can try to find the fix by using git bisect. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread

Still I am not sure the problem is already fixed before 55274a305, or I am just unlucky enough not see the problem when testing. After bisecting, I can say that the culprit is the below patch, from Marcelo. Now I am wondering if the above commit 55274a305 of Paolo Bonzini fixed the bug, or other commit before that?? We should find the correct fix, and port it to 0.12.4.
