charset="utf-8" From: Thomas Huth When shutting down a guest that is currently in progress of being migrated, there is a chance that QEMU might crash during bdrv_delete(). The backtrace looks like this: Thread 74 "mig/src/main" received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. [Switching to Thread 0x3f7de7fc8c0 (LWP 2161436)] 0x000002aa00664012 in bdrv_delete (bs=3D0x2aa00f875c0) at ../../devel/qemu= /block.c:5560 5560 QTAILQ_REMOVE(&graph_bdrv_states, bs, node_list); (gdb) bt #0 0x000002aa00664012 in bdrv_delete (bs=3D0x2aa00f875c0) at ../../devel/= qemu/block.c:5560 #1 bdrv_unref (bs=3D0x2aa00f875c0) at ../../devel/qemu/block.c:7170 Backtrace stopped: Cannot access memory at address 0x3f7de7f83e0 The problem is apparently that the migration thread is still active (migration_shutdown() only asks it to stop the current migration, but does not wait for it to finish), while the main thread continues to bdrv_close_all() that will destroy all block drivers. So the two threads are racing here for the destruction of the migration-related block drivers. I was able to bisect the problem and the race has apparently been introduced by commit c2a189976e211c9ff782 ("migration/block-active: Remove global acti= ve flag"), so reverting it might be an option as well, but waiting for the migration thread to finish before continuing with the further clean-ups during shutdown seems less intrusive. Note: I used the Claude AI assistant for analyzing the crash, and it came up with the idea of waiting for the migration thread to finish in migration_shutdown() before proceeding with the further clean-up, but the patch itself has been 100% written by myself.
