Hey,
Seems like the problem is not relevant to that bug.
The conversion works fine when I run it directly on my computer (L0) - same
OVA converted into a fully functional fedora over qemu/KVM.
The problem is the *nested environment* -   I try to do the same process
within a VM and it fails as I described.
Thanks,
Rom

 Subject: [Libguestfs] Double fault panic in L2 upon v2v conversion
 Hi everybody,
 Wanted to hear your opinion and to receive a smart advice.
 I'm trying to use virt-v2v in order to convert ova image (exported from
 vcenter) to run on libvirt/kvm - all this inside a VM of fedora.
 The converted image is also a fedora.
 During the conversion process, in some point of libguestfs activity, I get
 double fault panic from L2 (printed as part of libguest output) and the
 conversion process fails - no errors appear neither in L0 not in L1 message
 logs.
 This is more detailed explanation:
 Description of problem:
 During v2v conversion for ova fedora image in a VM there is double fault
 panic happens and L2 crashes during libguestfs conversion.
 The crash happens in different stages, but usually upon memory pressure in
 L0.
 There are no error logs in L1 and cannot find strong correlation to
 patches that were added to L0-KVM to avoid L0 crash upon nested vm with
 high memory pressure -
http://git.kernel.org/cgit/virt/kvm/kvm.git/patch/arch/x86/kvm/mmu.c?id=9....
 Command within L1 to perform the conversion (fedora.ova - vmdk image of
 fedora - was placed in advance on the VM):
 LIBGUESTFS_TRACE=1 LIBGUESTFS_DEBUG=1 /usr/bin/virt-v2v -i ova -os default
 -oc qemu:///system -of qcow2 -n default /var/tmp/fedora-v2v.ova
 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
 L0:
 Kernel: 3.11.8-200.fc19 + nested crash patches
 libvritd: 1.0.5.8
 qemu: 1.6.1
 libguestfs-test-tool 1.22.7fedora=19,release=1.fc19,libvirt
 L1:
 Kernel: 3.11.8-200..fc19.x86_64
 libvirtd: 1.0.5.8
 qemu: 1.6.1 + v2v patch (skip vmdk version verification)
 libguestfs-test-tool 1.22.7fedora=19,release=2.fc19,libvirt
 virt-v2v 0.9.0
 L2:
 Kernel: 3.11.10-301.fc20
 How reproducible:
 LIBGUESTFS_TRACE=1 LIBGUESTFS_DEBUG=1 /usr/bin/virt-v2v -i ova -os default
 -oc qemu:///system -of qcow2 -n default /var/tmp/fedora-v2v.ova
 Steps to Reproduce:
 1. Upload ova image to VM
 2. Run v2v to perform the conversion
 3. Add some memory pressure on L0 (dd if=/dev/urandom of=/tmp/bigfile
 count=6M)
 Actual results:
 libguestfs: checksum of existing appliance:

 Additional info:
 The same crash also happens when L0 is 3.11.9 (with kvm patch to avoid L0
 crash in nested environment -
http://git.kernel.org/cgit/virt/kvm/kvm.git/patch/arch/x86/kvm/mmu.c?id=9...)
but more rarely.
 Thanks a lot,
 Rom
