Does it happen with any 32gb file that doesn't compress well?
The 220 GB qcow2 file was basically uncompressible (backuppc archive
full of bzip2-compressed files).
Ok, I think I know what is happening here, they all lead to the same
chunk of code. I'll be able to reproduce this locally.
FYI, qemu/kvm doesn't seem to like its files located on btrfs mounted with compress-force.
I have a filesystem mounted with noatime,compress-force, where I created a 100GB sparse file.
There, I wanted to install a Linux distribution - however, the whole qemu-kvm process hanged with these entries being repeated over and over.
It's not possible to kill the qemu-kvm process (even with kill -9) etc.
[103678.068429] INFO: task qemu-kvm:18722 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
Hmm, I see it blocks infinitely like this whether qemu-kvm tries to
access a sparse file mounted with compress, compress-force, or no
compression at all.
Also hangs with non-sparse files mounted without compression (didn't try
with compression).
So must be some other bug.
And, I see occasional:
bad ordered accounting left 4096 size 12288
when it happens.
