[Qemu-devel] [Bug 899961] [NEW] qemu/kvm locks up when run 32bit userspace with 64bit kernel

[Michael Tokarev]

Public bug reported:

Applies to both qemu and qemu-kvm 1.0, but only when kernel is 64bit and
userspace is 32bit, on x86.  Did not happen with previous released
versions, such as 0.15.  Not all guests triggers this issue - so far,
only (32bit) windows 7 guest shows it, but does that quite reliable:
first boot of an old guest with new qemu (or qemu-kvm), windows finds a
new CPU and suggests rebooting - hit "Reboot" and in a few seconds it
will be locked up (including the monitor), with 100% CPU usage.
Killable with -9.

** Affects: qemu
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
