+virtio-balloon-device locks up Guest
+
+Setting arbitrary balloon target values locks up the guest in some cases crashes it, if the target memory is < used +~5% free.  
+Found while testing aggressive memory over-commit, scenarios.
+You get messages like:

+commit 5a10b7dbf904bfe01bb9fcc6298f7df09eed77d5
+Author: Raushaniya Maksudova <email address hidden>
+
+Boot guest with '-balloon virtio', -qmp .... -hmp access
+1. sudo info balloon | socat - tcp4-connect:127.0.0.1:4444
+   - or over qmp interface
+{"execute":"qom-get", "arguments": { "path": "/machine/peripheral-anon/device[1]","property": "guest-stats" }}
+{"return": {"stats": {"stat-swap-out": 0, "stat-free-memory": 513454080, "stat-minor-faults": 1261, "stat-major-faults": 0, "stat-total-memory": 526073856, "stat-swap-in": 0}, "last-update": 11109}}
+
+2. Take memory down check free memory using (1)
+3. Issue "sudo echo balloon XXX | socat - tcp4-connect:127.0.0.1:4444" - XXX is value in threshold mentioned above
+   and you get Guest lockup
+
+ARM - samething except '-device virtio-balloon-device' used
+
+Libvirt - virsh setmem causes same issue.
