[Qemu-devel] Kernel Panic on Yum update

[Gerhard Wiesinger]

Helllo,

I'm using latest qemu-kvm-2.3.0-3.fc21.x86_64 from libvirt repository 
(updated afterwards). Running yum regularly crashes the VM like below. 
VM is stripped down to minimum memory requirements (256MB) for owncloud. 
See below.

Looks like a problem in virtio-net or a kernel bug with low memory 
situations.

Any ideas?

Thank you.

Ciao,
Gerhard
