One such thread starts vhost device via vhost_dev_start() function and another called fault_thread handles page faults in user space using kernel's userfaultfd(2) system. * When fault_thread exits upon completion of Postcopy migration, it sends a 'postcopy_end' message to the vhost-user device. But sometimes 'postcopy_end' message is sent while vhost device is being setup via vhost_dev_start(). Thread-1 Thread-2 vhost_dev_start postcopy_ram_incoming_cleanup vhost_device_iotlb_miss postcopy_notify vhost_backend_update_device_iotlb vhost_user_postcopy_notifier vhost_user_send_device_iotlb_msg vhost_user_postcopy_end process_message_reply process_message_reply vhost_user_read vhost_user_read vhost_user_read_header vhost_user_read_header "Fail to update device iotlb" "Failed to receive reply to postcopy_end" This creates confusion when vhost device receives 'postcopy_end' message while it is still trying to update IOTLB entries. This seems to leave the guest in a stranded/hung state because fault_thread has exited saying Postcopy migration has ended, but vhost-device is probably still expecting updates. QEMU logs following errors on the destination host === ... qemu-kvm: vhost_user_read_header: 700871,700871: Failed to read msg header.
