Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated qemu-kvm-rhev packages that fix a bug are now available.
Description
KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) is a full virtualization solution for
Linux on AMD64 and Intel 64 systems. The qemu-kvm-rhev packages form the
user-space component for running virtual machines using KVM.
This update fixes the following bug:
- Previously, the qemu-kvm utility did not enable the IOeventFD feature,
which caused the IOeventFD support for virtio-blk devices to be silently
disabled. This update enables the IOeventFD feature, and the IOeventFD
support for virtio-blk devices functions normally. (BZ#929105)
All users of qemu-kvm-rhev are advised to upgrade to these updated
packages, which fix this bug. After installing this update, terminate
all running virtual machines on the compute node. Once all virtual machine
instances running on the compute node have been terminated, launch them again
for this update to take effect.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
