qxl: keep going if reaching guest bug on empty area
Xorg server hangs when using xfig and typing a text with space: #0 qxl_wait_for_io_command (qxl=<value optimized out>) at qxl_io.c:47 #1 0x00007f826a49a299 in qxl_download_box (surface=0x221d030, x1=231, y1=259, x2=<value optimized out>, y2=<value optimized out>) at qxl_surface.c:143 while (!(ram_header->int_pending & QXL_INTERRUPT_IO_CMD)) usleep (1); The QXL driver is calling QXL_IO_UPDATE_AREA with an empty area. This is a guest bug. The call is async and no ack is sent back on guest bug, so the X server will hang. The driver should be improved to avoid this situation and also to abort on QXL_INTERRUPT_ERROR. This will be a different patch series for the driver. However, it is simple enough to keep qemu running on empty areas update, which is what this patch provides. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1151363 Signed-off-by: Gerd Hoffmann <[email protected]>
