-device nec-usb-xhci (usb 3) breaks VM snapshots Enabling the USB 3.0 controller apparently breaks "live" snapshotting. To reproduce: $ qemu-system-x86_64 -device nec-usb-xhci vm.qcow2 then, at the Monitor: (qemu) savevm Error -22 while writing VM (qemu) Instead, if I remove -device nec-usb-xhci from the cmdline, everything works fine. Some QEMU and OS info: $ qemu-system-x86_64 -version QEMU emulator version 1.5.0, Copyright (c) 2003-2008 Fabrice Bellard $ uname -a Linux localhost 3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.41-2 x86_64 GNU/Linux The same also happens with 1.4.2. All compiled from source, not Debiabn package (btw, this *also* happens with distro packages/older versions).
