+qemu versions 2.10 and 2.11 have error during migration of larger guests

+== Comment: #0 - Christian Borntraeger  - 2018-06-28 06:39:27 ==

+Migration fails with larger guests (e.g. 10GB)  on a z system prints an error message in the log

+This messes up guest state for the CMMA values (guest data corruption)

+    s390x: fix storage attributes migration for non-small guests

+    

+    Fix storage attribute migration so that it does not fail for guests

+    with more than a few GB of RAM.

+    With such guests, the index in the buffer would go out of bounds,

+    usually by large amounts, thus receiving -EFAULT from the kernel.

+    Migration itself would be successful, but storage attributes would then

+    not be migrated completely.

+    

+    This patch fixes the out of bounds access, and thus migration of all

+    storage attributes when the guest have large amounts of memory.

+

+This fix is part of 2.11.1 so the qemu in bionic is fine.

+The qemu in artful, as well as the qemu in the cloud archives for 16.04 need this fix, so we have

+affected qemus in 17.10 and 16.04. 

+

+Regarding 16.04:

+The bug only triggers for host kernels >= 4.13 - in other words when you combine HWE kernel with the qemu from the cloud archive.
