+QEMU-KVM / detect_zeroes causes KVM to start unlimited number of threads on Guest-Sided High-IO with big Blocksize
+
+QEMU-KVM in combination with "detect_zeroes=on" makes a Guest able to DoS the Host. This is possible if the Host itself has "detect_zeroes" enabled and the Guest writes a large Chunk of data with a huge blocksize onto the drive.
+
+E.g.: dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/DoS bs=1G count=1 oflag=direct
+
+All QEMU-Versions after implementation of detect_zeroes are affected. Prior are unaffected. This is absolutely critical, please fix this ASAP!
