Title:
  kvm locks up when out of disk space

Status in QEMU:
  Invalid
Status in “qemu-kvm” package in Debian:
  Unknown

Bug description:
  Running a VM using raw sparse disk image on kvm 0.14 on Debian.

  When disk writes use up all disk space kvm locks up.

  if it cannot handle this situation gracefully (eg suspend the VM until
  space becomes available) it should at the very least report an error
  and exit, not keep sitting there.
