Bug description:
Binary package hint: qemu
Guest kernel hang during boot when KVM is active on i386 host
See the patch.
http://www.spinics.net/lists/kvm/msg40800.html
How to reproduce:
1. install Maversick x86 (not amd64)
2. ensure you have kvm support in processor
3. kvm -kernel /boot/initrd.img-2.6.35-24-generic-pae
4. kvm -no-kvm -kernel /boot/initrd.img-2.6.35-24-generic-pae works OK.
SRU Justification:
Impact: Users cannot boot KVM guests on i386 hosts
2. How bug addressed: The upstream commit at
http://www.spinics.net/lists/kvm/msg40800.html fixed it
3. Patch: A kernel patch is attached to this bug.
4. Reproduce: boot an i386 kernel on a kvm-capable host. Try to boot a kvm
guest.
5. Regression potential: since this is cherrypicking a commit from a future
upstream which had already been changed, regression is possible. However if
there is a regression, it should only affect users of KVM on i386 hosts, which
currently fail anyway.
