It was set to 'Cache Mode: None', 'IO Mode: Native'. It still uses the VirtIO disk bus. The problem must be triggered by large spikes of random IO (non- sequential reads & writes) to sparse files on the FS. I will try to re- create this in a test-VM.

The filesystem is a mdadm software raid1 spanning over two disks with ext4 on-top. $ uname -r 4.15.0-43-generic $ lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS Release: 18.04 Codename: bionic The filesystem of the physical machine went read only and effectively crashed all processes, including the guest operating system. A hard reset and disk check appears to have solved the symptom, but we have mixed feelings since we don't know about any collateral damage this may have caused. dmesg displays worrying information that is hopefully not a symptom of irreversible root filesystem corruption: systemd-journald[457]: File /var/log/journal/7346ea28f12b763f29b8995058d63291/user-1000.journal corrupted or uncleanly shut down, renaming and replacing. The symptom manifested while booting the guest machine and thus may well be related to a burst of random reads and writes of the kvm guest. We observed moderate disk activity in htop.
