[Pkg-xen-devel] Regression in Qemu 1:5.0-9 / 1:3.1+dfsg-8+deb10u6 for Xen/HVM

[Hans van Kranenburg]

Hi all,

tl;dr: When using HVM, stay at, or downgrade qemu to:
- unstable: 1:5.0-8
- stable: 1:3.1+dfsg-8+deb10u5

In the previous week there has been debugging going on around a report
of failing to start HVM guests with the qemu update in Debian unstable.

Today it was discovered that the same issue had leaked to Debian stable
in the last security update.

The cause has been found now, and a regression update is in the works.
