We use OpenNebula on Debian 8 to run KVM guests.  Our latest upgrade of the host and guests broke badly.
The host can not run guests with the latest kernels from Debian 8 and 9.  If we downgrade the kernel on
host or guest the problem is no longer present.

To localize the root problem, I managed to launch a KVM guest on the command line using the lastest
Debian live CD and the problem was the same.  This is not a problem of OpenNebula.

I need help to collect more information about what is going wrong on the guest and the host.

Kind regards

I have made videos of a guest live cd from Debian trying to boot and
failing.

qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -machine pc-i440fx-2.1,accel=kvm,usb=off -m 8096 -device cirrus-vga,id=video0 -device virtio-balloon-pci,id=balloon0,bus=pci.0,addr=0x5 -cpu host -msg timestamp=on -smp 4,sockets=4,cores=1,threads=1 -display vnc=:22 -cdrom ~cal/debian-9.5.0-amd64-xfce-CD-1.iso

The most informative have 60MB.  There is a recomended place to upload
videos?  If not, I can upload on my homepage at University.


Kind regards

This bug was filed against kernel version 3.16 and the chance that an upstream
kernel developer will devote time to it is ~ 0%, so I'm closing this bug.

If you can reproduce it with

- the current version in unstable/testing
- the latest kernel from backports

please reopen the bug, see https://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control
for details.

I'm sorry that a proper solution couldn't be found.
