19984,PulseAudio not working on Fedora 33,other,,2020-10-20T18:53:34Z,2020-10-25T21:57:40Z,2020-10-25T21:57:40Z,"Hi there,
I've been using VirtualBox version 6.1.97 r140489 and r140902 (Q.t 5.6.1) which I compiled myself.
What I noticed is that if I pick PulseAudio on the host, both Windows 10 Enterprise x64 and Windows XP Professional x86 are completely silent and on playback, they fail, with players not showing any kind of progress.
If I choose ALSA, however, audio works, but the guest cannot receive any input from the microphone of the host.
I also tried to make a brand new virtual machine with Win10 and it didn't change, I was able to reproduce the error.
The host is Fedora 33 x64, kernel 5.8.15.
I just wanted to let you know so that you can get it fixed before releasing a new stable version.

While Oracle assertions are for accessibility introducing VBox beta, I can say we are far from it. Beyond bugs I have submitted about crashes and I confirm with this release, a lot of buttons do not have any label on their widgets, hence a screen reader cannot tell what the button does. Filling the label area sends to qt-t-spi what an assistive technology needs to work properly.

Here is an examples:
- Main window: once opened, press tab twice. The focus reaches, respectively, on two buttons without labels, and ths screen reader just says ""Button""

If on the other hand I don't and it doesn't switch to it, the guest kernel basically stops progress after ""no floppy controllers found"" (or work still pending). Eventually initializes the random pool (random: nonblocking pool initialized), and nothing further. I can type, but of course nothing happens, just keys get echoed.

How about an expand/collapse system (Qt4 Tree widget?) so you could have a folder for Windows, a folder for Linux, a folder for Solaris etc.

My preference would be a check box in the Export Appliance dialog box with an option like ""Split large files into 2 GB chunks."" Import Appliance should be smart enough to recognize that is importing a chunked vmdk and rebuild it as part of the import. (If that is too difficult to do, it would be acceptable if the user had to select an option in the Import Appliance dialog to tell VirtualBox to rejoin the vmdk.)

In the current release of VirtualBox, this exercise is left to the users. Sure, I can take a virtual appliance and split it up using my native OS utilities or an installer product of some sort, and then provide instructions for the end user to rebuild the file but there are some major disadvantages to doing things this way:

- The user requires extra disk space - some space for the split up file, and then some space for the rebuilt file

- It is an acceptance barrier to the end user to have to perform an additional step beyond File / Import Appliance to import an appliance

- Every developer who wants to redistribute virtual appliances on DVDs has to come up with their own methods of chunking, which likely vary depending on the operating system on which the appliance will be deployed.

Therefore, while the omission of any chunking capability might meet the OVF standard, it provides difficulties for those of us who want to send out virtual appliances using any medium other than file downloads.

Please consider this RFE. The lack of a chunking feature is causing some developers to have to do a lot of extra work. Please note that redistribution of VMware virtual machines on DVDs is trivial because that product support 2 GB chunks for their vmdk files.

Some systems cannot have parallel ports which live at the normal/legacy LPT1/2/3 I/O address ranges. It is possible to add hardware parallel ports to such systems, but the port base address is not the normal legacy value. For example, a laptop with no built-in parallel port can be used with a PCI Express-based ExpressCard parallel card. (The PCI Express parallel port cannot live at the legacy LPT1 address range.)

Most well-written software works with such parallel ports, but much older software is hard-coded to only work with the legacy address ranges.

To be able to use such software, VirtualBox needs to remap accesses to the legacy parallel I/O range to that used by the host's parallel port. So in addition to a direct pass-through, an option to set the I/O address range used for the guest's parallel port would be really useful, and should allow use of software which does not work when run in the host OS.

Also there is a problem with vboxsf in conjunction with suse: a correctly configured fstab shows mount usage at boot time, as mount.vboxsf does not recognize vboxsf correctly at boot time (at least with suse), so i think its a good idea to use ""auto"" as per default. I changed my configuration to use noauto, and changed mount -a -t vboxsf to a simple mount for loop with all vboxsf definitions.

6323,Can't get IP Forwarding to work with Host-only adapter,Linux,VirtualBox 3.0.6,2010-03-04T07:48:08Z,2011-01-26T12:41:53Z,2011-01-26T12:41:53Z,"Hello, 

I'm developing a software to demonstrate how Man in the middle works using arp cache poisoning. I can't get ip forwarding to work with Host-only adapter! 

I was previously using a bridged network on tun/tap devices that I was creating myself. My network was designed like this : 

[*]1 bridge br0

[*]2 tun/tap interfaces tap0 and tap1


Then I add the tap0 and tap1 to the bridge and configure my 2 VMs to use bridged network on tap0 and tap1.
With this configuration, ip-forwading works perfectly fine!  My bridge br0 can play the role of the attacker and forward ip between my first and second VM.

'''Now I'm trying to use host-only adapter''', so that i could use later in my program the ''VBoxManage hostonly ipconfig'' command line. In the configuration I want to be, my 1st VM wants to talk to my 2nd VM but its arp cache has been corrupted so that packets are sent to the host (host-only interface). My problem is packets aren't forwarded by the host, and they normally should be.

I'm enabling ip forwarding on the host-only adapter  (vboxnet0), as I was doing before with my bridge br0 : 

{{{
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/*/forwarding 
echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/*/send_redirects
}}}

Unfortunately, even though each machine in this configuration can communicate with one another, the vboxnet0 interface doesn't forward ip packets. Shouldn't host only interface behave like a normal networking interface?

This situation occurs when a network bridge is configured inside a guest system.

It looks like the virtualbox network bridge can only keep track of one MAC address for which it accepts incoming packets for the guest; that mac address is most likely set to the source address of the last outgoing packet from the guest. This results in major packetloss for both the guest and systems on the other side of the guest's network bridge.

In most cases, the described behaviour is close to how a normal NIC would behave. However, if the NIC is in Promiscuous mode (which is the case for network bridges), the NIC should present all packets it receives to the guest, without filtering.

It may not be feasible to present all received packets to the guest for performance reasons; however if the guest explicitly enables promiscuous mode it is requesting to receive all such packets, and usually needs this behaviour.

A reasonable alternative to accepting *all* packets would be to enlarge the MAC address buffer, but this would require a far more complex network switch implementation.",Ivo Smits

When I set them up properly the guest (Win XP) has no issues getting an IP from the dhcp server. However, any changes to the dhcp server configuration while the machine is running have no effect (I haven't tried using the cableConnected feature of the guest network adapter, but I disable/enable the connection from the guest so that should work). Those changes only appear after I stop and start the virtual machine, so maybe I am missing a neccessary step (note: restarting the guest w/o stopping the vm does not work either). 

An odd thing is that under no circumstances does the state of the dhcp server make any difference. Disabling the server by using the IDHCPServer::stop() function does not seem to stop the server. Or it could be that this is supposed to do something completely different, but I can't really tell since there is almost no information about it in the API docs.

Another issue I have is when trying to enable dynamic configuration on the host only interface. As far as I can understand enabling that will allow a dhcp server to give an address to the interface. But what I get when I call

The mouse click is unnecessary and redundant.  Moving the mouse is a clear indication that the user wants to do something outside of the vbox guest.  Guest additions should release the keyboard to the host at this point.  Curiously, even seamless mode does not help in this respect.

This may sound trivial at first glance, but it makes things clumsy when switching back and forth between guest vbox windows and host windows.  With Vbox, it takes a careful mouse movement to a harmless place, an additional mouse click, before being able to use keyboard CUA.  Also, finding a harmless place for the extra mouse click can be a problem when using a full host taskbar and a maximized vbox guest window.

Instead, it is much easier to just move the mouse to any max position off of the vbox window, and the use keyboard shortcuts to change to a different host desktop.

Problem:
Links show up as ""No such file or directory"".  This is an error.  Linux 'inodes' that represent softlinks should be copied as directory entries (regular files).  It appears that OracleBox insists on following the links to their target.  

If the target does not actually exist, that is OK.  The link should be shared-out to the guest OS, and presented correctly as if the file were on the original (host) OS file system.

Scenario:
  * set up a guest VM (tested with Windows XP and 7) with the same desktop resolution as the host

  * position/resize the Guest WM window to show only parts of its desktop (offering scrollbars to pan the full desktop area)
  * go into Full Screen with Hostkey+F
  * come back from Full Screen with Hostkey+F

VBox will now ignore the previously set window size and instead expand the guest VM window to fill the whole screen. In previous versions it would respect the window size set by the user.

Retaining the window geometry (and scroll position) set by the user is very useful when having several guest VMs running side-by-side on one screen for overview, and easily being able to go into Full Screen when a guest needs attention.",Mike Wilson

I am running Virtualbox vrdp type virtual machines on a server.
These are started and stopped with the acpipowerbutton (and a wait until all vms are stopped) command on host startup and shutdown.
I use a custom init script for this, but while investigating the problem I used the functionality of the entry ""SHUTDOWN=acpibutton"" in /etc/default/virtualbox and it shows exactly the same behaviour:
The VM is not shutting down gracefully, but stopped abruptly, when the host is shutting down. Moreover multiple times I lost data on that stopped VMs (they worked well, just ""forgot"" some recent activities like VCS commits...).

For my script I found the problem to be the fact that Debian (Squeeze) recently activated parrallel execution of initscripts. I suspect the sendsigs script at fault, as it sends KILL signals to all remaining running processes. Though I solved that problem for me by adding $all to Required-Start and Required-Stop, so the VMs start and stop after respectively before all other scripts, which is what I want.
I think it's the same with SHUTDOWN=acpibutton option of the virtualbox init script.

I migrated my machines from VMWare Server, I had no problems with the equivalent shutdown option there.

I have two desktop Ubuntu Lucid machines, let's call them D1 and D2, and two users working on them, U1 on D1 and U2 on D2. U1 has VirtualBox running a Windows VM (V1) with D1 as a host. User U2 has a RDP connection opened to V1. 

The users U1 and U2, however, have different TS sessions on the Windows machine. So U1 sees his Windows desktop in the VirtualBox window on his desktop D1, and U2 sees his Windows desktop in the rdesktop window on his desktop D2. The Windows VM runs two user sessions concurrently.

Every once in a while, when U2 copies something in the clipboard on his desktop session on D2, user U1 is able to paste the same thing on his desktop session on D1.

I believe the reason for this is because there is clipboard sharing between D1 and V1 via VirtualBox, and also between V1 and D2 via RDP. So in fact, the clipboard somehow becomes shared by all 3 machines.

This does not seem to occur when running the VM in headless mode, and both users connecting to it via RDP, which indicates that the problem is more likely in the way VirtualBox manages clipboard sharing rather than rdesktop / RDP.

9007,Captured/filtered USB devices are released and reacquired when guest reboots,Windows,VirtualBox 4.0.8,2011-06-01T13:34:26Z,2016-08-23T07:18:59Z,2016-08-23T07:18:59Z,"Hi,

Host: Xubuntu 9.10 x86, VirtualBox 4.0.8 (with PUEL extension pack).
Guest: Windows XP SP3

When the guest is rebooted, VirtualBox seems to free/release any filtered USB devices, then re-capture them. I think all filtered USB devices should remain filtered when the guest reboots.

This problem is most noticeable when using a USB floppy drive. Most(?) Linux distributions treat USB floppy drives as generic removable drives. So when you insert a disk, the kernel attempts to read the last sector and scans for partition tables. In combination with the default block device readahead of 256 blocks, that process can take 30 seconds or so. *Every time you insert a disk*. It's quite annoying. Floppy disks never have a partition table of course so the scan is pointless. Anyway...

To reproduce the problem:
 - Connect a USB floppy drive to your system.
 - Add the floppy drive to the USB Device Filters of a Windows guest VM.
 - Start the Windows VM. Insert a floppy disk. Notice the drive only spins for a short time. Because it is captured, the Linux host OS doesn't attempt to access it.
 - Reboot the guest OS.
 - Notice how when the guest reboots, the kernel creates a /dev/sdX block device and scans for partitions (taking about 30 seconds). Then the block device is removed when VirtualBox re-captures the device.

Other drives are probably affected similarly, so you get an unnecessary block device creation, partition scan and device removal whenever the guest is rebooted. (That takes less time than for USB floppy drives so will be less noticeable.)

Started Windows XP today, and as soon as I hit the left mouse button for the first time, the mouse goes nuts. On each click, the mouse pointer is relocated on the screen (makes double-clicks impossible). Mouse movements do not properly end on the edge of the screen but just in the middle of the movement the guest mouse pointer is relocated and mouse control is back under Linux control (a little bit like the Host Key has been pressed during the movement; changing it doesn't help).

Guest additions are not installed (so there's no special mouse integration). It's a standard setup.

I've also moved the old installation out of the way, removed the VirtualBox package, reinstalled it and made a Windows XP (SP2) install from scratch. Same behaviour.

It doesn't look like this is Windows' fault, because it happens with a clean Windows XP SP2 as well as a fully patched and customized Windows XP SP3. Looks like VirtualBox and Linux (Fedora) no longer work well with each other. Fedora is fully patched.

I've also tried a USB mouse (just in case VirtualBox has problems with PS/2), but that didn't change anything. It doesn't look like a hardware fault because everything is recognized and basically works.

Same problem with different screen resolutions within the guest system.

I'm wondering that simple mouse movement can cause the mouse to be no longer captered by the guest system. That should be impossible without the Guest Additions.

Problem is with 32bit Win XP SP3 guest - when 4.1 additions are installed mouse pointer seems ""inaccurate"" resulting in difficulties to manipulate objects in graphics packages.  Downgrading guest additions to 4.0.12 resolves the problem.

Correct behavior is that as mouse is over a node tool should change from pick to node edit however with additions 4.1.0 this is erratic and often never happens at all.

to access hardware directly

I'm attaching a screen shot to this bug report you can also see.

I have a desktop running an AMD and the guest will boot and run just fine, it's only on my Vaio with the i3 that it won't boot, so I recompiled the kernel 3.4.3 hoping this would help with no luck.

I've also attached the VB log....

I also noticed that if I try to boot the Slackware 13.37 CD it too won't boot on the Sony and kernel panics and locks up as well.

I read there seems to be an issue here with Slack and i3/i5/i7 cpus?

I hope someone might know a fix for VB OSE 4.1.14 I can apply to get this to bootup?

THANKS

P.S. Since I'm running Slackware and I compiled the OSE version into a slackware package, this is the build script I used;

http://slackbuilds.org/repository/13.37/system/virtualbox/

Until this gets updated, I'm not able to use 4.1.16....

The machine is automatically paused, and you are prompted to free some space on disk.
Suppose you cannot free up any space because the vdi and snapshots are alone on a disk partition and they have filled it up.

- You cannot save the machine
- You cannot clone it because when you clone it, you are not asked where to store the files for the new machine
- you cannot export it because it is not turned off

- you have other disks with plenty of space where you could save the current space and copy all the vdi's so as to later resume the machine with enough disk space, but there's no way you can do that because you can't save it anywhere else than in the disk that is full.


So, an option should exist (or at least should be provided as a backup mechanism whenever a disk full error is encountered) to save the current machine state somewhere other than the default location.

This OpenVPN server needs to run as a layer 2 VPN (tap) which means it will place clients onto the local LAN with their own MAC addresses visible, and these clients need to be capable of two-way communication at layer 2.  I have been using the bridged network adapter for the VM.

When run from within the VM, I can connect clients to this server and ping/log into the server's IP, (guest machine) but I cannot access the Host's IP or anything else on the LAN from the client.  If I set up the OpenVPN server identically on the host, (Which is the same OS and otherwise identical setup) it works fine.  OpenVPN requires setting up a bridge internally on the server for this kind of layer 2 tap VPN, and putting the ethernet interface into promiscuous mode.  I've tried attaching the VM bridged adapter to the physical eth0 interface of the host and also to a bridged adapter on the host that was then bridged to the eth0 interface while eth0 was in promiscuous mode (similar to the setup on the guest)

I have found two other references to this problem, one with a Linux host, the other with Windows.  The Windows one was ticket #8965.  Both references indicate that this bug was a regression between versions 4.0.4 and 4.0.6.  Since I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 and VBox 4.1.18, downgrading to VBox 4.0.4 to confirm this would be painful.

Looking at the changelog of 4.0.6, I suspect that I've found the culprit:
""Host-Only & Bridged & Internal Networking: fix for processing promiscuous mode requests by VMs, defaulting to switch behaviour ""

Not sure what is meant by ""switch behavior"" but a switch is nothing more than a many-port bridge, which will broadcast frames to all ports but the one it came in on if the MAC is not in the MAC table, will learn the source MAC of any frame and put it in the MAC table for the port it came in on, and will unicast learned MACs to the ports on which the MAC table says they reside.  This may be somewhat inconsistent with being able to specify a MAC for the bridged adapter of the guest (which I have also done in this case)  If the switch portion is not flooding unlearned frames out to the guest machine virtual ports and also learning new MAC entries from frames sent by those ports, then the behavior may be efficient, but it will also be incorrect for Guests with their interfaces in promiscuous mode.

This bug is closely related to #8965 and this version with the Linux host type is also referenced here: https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=42335&p=203067&hilit=openvpn#p203067

This software (Magpie from MEA in Australia) extracts certain data from certain binary files output from a datalogger and collates it in a database. When run in WinXP under VirtualBox with the data stored in a VirtualBox 'shared folder' mounted as a Windows network drive it loses data.  When the data is stored within the VirtualBox 'disk' it works fine and it also works fine when the data is on a real Windows network share.

I have spoken to the developer of the software and it turns out that it is using the Windows API calls 'FindFirstFile' and 'FindNextFile'. The virtualbox ""pseudo-network redirector"" driver in WinXP is not returning files in the same order as either windows or a windows network share (which it is pretending to be) does. This leads to the data problems within the software. See attached screenshot for file dialog box with incorrectly ordered files. When the data are stored on the windows virtual disk or on a windows share the files are in date order.

Interestingly, when run under WINE the file order in this dialog is exactly the same as when run using Virtualbox and a 'shared folder'. I conclude from this that when the above API calls are run against a virtualbox 'shared folder' it is presenting the files as they are presented to it by my linux host, not in the order that windows would present them.

Below is pasted from my forum post: https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=47136. 

I decided to run some network throughput benchmarks (mainly interested in max packets per second), and have noticed a large discrepancy when assigning one CPU to a VM vs 2 or more CPUs. My setup (all 64-bit):
Host: Ubuntu 11.04 2.6.38-13-generic #53-Ubuntu SMP, 3 GHz Intel i7 950 (4 phys cores + HT), 12GB RAM, Ethernet: Intel 82574L Gigabit
Guest: Ubuntu 11.10 3.0.0-12-server kernel, 1GB Ram assigned
VirtualBox version: 4.1.8 

Following are the results of the basic testing I performed using netserver/netperf against a bridged network interface (bridged to above Intel device). The following commands were run on the Guest against its local interface (not the loopback):
netserver -4 (starts an ipv4 tcp/udp server). 
netperf -H <IP_address_of_eth0> -t TCP_CRR (runs a TCP connect/request/response transaction benchmark) 

Single-CPU VM
~17-18k transactions per second

2-CPU VM
~5k TPS

2-CPU VM with eth0 interrupts and netserver/netperf all pinned to the same core
~7k TPS
Confirmed v. low scheduling interrupts during benchmark (watching /proc/interrupts)

2-CPU VM with 2nd core disabled via hotplugging
Disabled the second cpu with: echo '0' > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online and confirmed via /proc/interrupts and other system tools.
~8.5k TPS

Also worth noting that on the host system, the same test yields around 26k TPS. netfilter/conntrack is disabled on both host and guest. 

So even with the second cpu disabled I'm seeing around a 50% performance degradation vs the single-cpu VM. The results with more than 2 CPUs were very similar to the 2-CPU scenario. 

I would like to understand why this is the case (I'm certainly no virtualization expert); are additional extensions/emulations loaded when starting a multicore guest?

Update
I repeated the same test on an OS X 10.6 host on similar architecture (quad core intel i7) and the results were the same, also on VBox 4.1.8. 

I decided to extend the test to something CPU bound and ran a Linpack benchmark (single thread), but the results are unaffected by number of vCPUs (which is good). And so I also ran a a disk read benchmark using hdparm, and this was also unaffected, so this seems to be confined to network performance for now.",james little

The best solution would be to collect the VM memory using the VM solution resources, specially in a paused state. The best solution would be to have a simple read function that could access a Snapshot.

The VBOX SDK guide describes the function readPhysicalMemory and notes that it is not developed in 4.0.0. We are already in 4.1.8 and it is still not imeplemented. I got this error message when running a python script that calls this function:

 0x80004001 (Method ReadPhysicalMemory is not implemented)

Please, could you please provide the implementation of this function in the next vbox release. Alternatively, this could be implemented in a VBoxManage debugvm option, specially if considering snapshots. The needed function is a raw VM memory dump.

Vmware Server/Workstation, for example, stores the memory in a flat vmem file. Libvirt has the virDomainMemoryPeek API function. Just Vbox lacks at this point.

Downgrading back to 4.1.22 on the same kernel resolves the issue.

I am on gentoo 64-bit, running gentoo-sources-3.6.0.  Same results on 3.5.4

I have a vm-host with several 1q vlan interfaces on it.  I then bind my VM's to a particular interface using the 'Bridge Adapter'.  The VM's are vlan-agnostic.

The symptom I have on VB 4.2.0 is that none of my VM's have network access.  As soon as I switch to NAT on the VM's everything works fine.  Downgrading to 4.1.22 on the same kernel restores network access for the 'Bridge Adapter'.

The ROUTER and VM-HOST have the VM's MAC address in their arp tables.  The VM itself only has the VM-HOST's MAC address - but not the ROUTER's.  The VM can communicate with the VM-HOST but not anything else on the same L2 vlan.  All other devices on the same L2 vlan have VM's MAC address (after a ping, say) but the VM never has any of the other hosts in it's arp table.  Seems like packets destined to the VM never make it past the VM-HOST.  I don't see any odd kernel events.

However, running `/etc/init.d/vboxautostart-service stop` has no effect at all. Indeed, in that script, almost the complete functionality of function stop() is commented out and replaced by a single call to `exit 0`.

Steps to replicate:

1.  Make an iSCSI target with any iSCSI software and make it readonly
2.  Add the target to your guest via vboxmanage stoargeattach and do not take snapshots
3.  Turn on the guest.

Summary:

- If you remove the readonly flag on the iscsi target everything works perfectly (even through VirutalBox does not need write on this medium)
- If you take a snapshot (thus a differencing medium is created), everything works perfectly
- If you add the DVD as multiattach instead of ""normal"", it creates a differencing medium, and everything works perfectly.
- If you add the medium normally, even though VirtualBox's documentation claims it is readonly, it tries to access the medium as read/write.",rshaw

I'm running Debian 7.0.
When i'm shutting down the system 
(This can manual or automatic or by powerloss and other causes..)
Init sends the SIGTERM signal and 5 sec later the SIGKILL.

In the /etc/rcx.d  the vbox-services are executed for shutdown/reboot at the beginning of the shutdown/reboot.
K02vboxautostart-service
K02vboxballoonctrl-services
K02vboxweb-services
K03vboxdrv
(after this unmouting nfs takes place)

Because of the shutdown order, i cannot move the proces more to the back. I can only try to shutdown the vm's before vboxservices are going down. This means a K01 for my script.

I did make a script to put the vm's in savestate one by one. (because a powerdown will not work for some machines.)
Saving a machine takes a few seconds.
I want to save 5 or more vm's.

By default i can save one vm.
With some tuning i can save 4 vm's before the host go's down.

The problem is, that the other vm's are just stopped. And could lose data, because the proces is killed, without the change to save the state off the machine.


I have a question.

Is it possible to make a command likje this:

vboxmanage controlvm all savestate

And that this command brings all machines down '''at once'''.
Not one after an other but alltogether. So it go's quicker and can be done in 5-10 sec.

Or an other sollution would be, the possibility to run commands on the background. So i can call all vm's one by one and don't have to wait for finishing before i can call the next one.

something like this:

vboxmanage controlvm <vm> savestate &

11486,Support passthrought of TRIM commands to raw partitions,all,VirtualBox 4.2.6,2013-02-13T13:27:11Z,2017-04-29T14:31:38Z,2017-04-29T14:31:38Z,"Since VirtualBox 4.2 it appears that the AHCI virtual controller supports the ATA TRIM command.

However, only the VDI image file backend actually implements it, where it is used to detect unused blocks so that the image file size can be reduced (if using a dynamic image). The rest of backends do not seem to use it for anything.

My request is for the RAW block device backend to send TRIM/DISCARD commands to the backing block device upon receiving a TRIM command from the guest. 

This would enable e.g. Windows guests on raw partitions (via VMDK's partitionedDevice) sending TRIM commands to a backing SSD device, thereby increasing performance and SSD longevity. 

Unlike discard support for VDI images, this should not involve any extra bookkeeping (""discard"" commands can be sent to the raw block device mostly ""as is"", no need to cluster them).",javispedro

The basic issue is that when using GoToMeeting in a Win7 VM, and if my VM is made the presenter, then graphics slow down to the point where the VM becomes unusably slow. The VM can be in a meeting with someone else presenting and it's fine. Only slow when the VM becomes the presenter. Slow means the cursor is unresponsive, gui interaction inside the Win 7 VM is very slow, cursor flicker. Pause the screen so that it's not being updated and the VM becomes fast again.

I haven't tested it with other Windows versions like win7. 

My old GDI+ game completely freezes the guest window after some seconds. The only the to recover is simply killing the virtualbox process. It doesn't happen when guest additions are not installed.

I decided to investigate further and wrote the C program that reproduces the problem. (Simply using the Code::Blocks template with some edits).

The normal behavior is when you see the repeated rederawings clicking on the window should immediately bring up a messagebox with the coordinates. Or pressing key should bring up one with the character pressed. '''This happens on native windows, and in VirtualBox without guest additions'''. 

With guest additions, if you run it for some time and click the window, nothing happens. The drawings keep going and you get response after several seconds. 

It looks like the driver becomes overloaded with stuff, rendering the window unresponsive, till it processed all the events.

It's probably worth noting that the hard disk indicator is red when this hanging happen. Maybe it's writing somehing? I'm not sure whether the VM is thrashing or just because the whole GUI was frozen.

Adding several milliseconds of Sleep() into the message loop relieves the problem a bit. But it makes the game very laggy. 

Hopefully this helps reproducing the problem.

Also a note: at least one OpenGL game the OpenArena works fine on VirtualBox too.

As of 4.3.18 the seamless mode mimics the height of the primary monitor (900px) though taking the whole width. Fullscreen mode still works as expected and takes up the whole secondary screen. 

More oddly, in seamless mode the 900px frame is positioned somewhere in the middle of the screen giving my a flying taskbar and VBox Toolbar.

2. Change shared folder path to existing writable folder, but leave ""shared"" as name of share.

3. Install mercurial, run following command:
{{{ hg clone 'http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8u/jdk8u/' && cd 'jdk8u' && bash get_source.sh }}}

4. Download jdk-7u67-linux-i586.tar.gz from http://java.sun.com

5. Start all imported VMs, does not matter headless or not.

6. Open number of terminals and run following command in each one of them, change path to jdk8u source, path to jdk-7u67 and name of VM:
{{{

When you've updated VirtualBox to a newer version and you had the extension pack installed before, you'll get presented with the notification that a newer extension pack is available when you start VirtualBox again after the VirtualBox update.

It's nice to get the reminder and the option to upgrade the extension pack, but the amount of subsequent dialogs the user is presented with is just madness. 7 in total just to perform the upgrade.

These are the action the user has to perform at the moment:
1. Press ""Download"" button on the upgrade available dialog
2. Press ""Download"" button on the download dialog
3. Press ""Install"" button on the download complete dialog
4. Press ""Upgrade"" button on a confirmation dialog
5. Press ""I agree"" button on the license dialog
6. Supply password on the system's admin rights needed dialog
7. Press ""OK"" button on the installed confirmation dialog

This makes a handy feature just tedious instead of being helpful and efficient.

I understand that there are different situations in which a user can install the extension pack and that there are different dialogs needed in those situations, but those dialogs should only be displayed when they actually apply.

The first 4 actions can, and IMHO should, be combined into just 1 when we are dealing the the update available notification. There's a new upgrade -> download and install.
Having to agree to the license could even be considered redundant on upgrade. You already agreed on it on the first install. If the license hasn't changed there's no point in displaying it again.

Would it be possible and desired to reduce the extension pack upgrade step to 3 or 4 steps instead of the current 7?
The current situation only makes it tedious and leaves a messy impression.",Forage

6. Switch back to guest VM with alt+shift+tab
7. Type some words in notepad

Expected result:
Letters from a-z and numbers from 0-9 typed out on screen. 

Result:
The menus activate randomly in notepad, no words are typed. In other programs like Putty I see strange characters being input, sometimes spaces, sometimes returns, never the expected character. In the Windows desktop random functions might be activated, or nothing will happen at all depending on what keys I press from a-z and 0-9 on the keyboard. 

Workaround:
Press left ctrl+alt once and typing is restored. ",stemid

When combined with bcache (SSD-backed cache) the fragmentation penalty of fragmented images doesn't hurt much - i.e. I get adequate perfomance of 3-8 VMs on my Lenovo T540p notebook. 

When I clone the vm (separate copy), virtualbox does a full copy of the image - taking considerable time (4 hours for 100GB image) and space. I suggest to utilize the ""cp --reflink=auto"" instead. The copy is made instantly (if possible and falls back to traditional copy) and no additional space is taken until there are changed blocks in the image file.  ",rugubara
13720,Virtualbox Crashes in r600_dri.so Mesa Graphics Driver When Running Ubuntu Guest With Guest Additions Installed,Linux,VirtualBox 4.3.20,2014-12-27T22:25:00Z,2015-01-12T22:47:14Z,2015-01-12T22:47:14Z,"On installing guest additions on a Ubuntu 14.10 guest and rebooting, the guest and virtualbox crash immediately _after_ the _login_ screen (i.e. after entering the password and Unity starts setting itself up). Subsequently, every reboot crashes at the same point and only un-installation of the guest additions can work around the problem.

The crash is always reproducible. Debugging details including a coredump, stack trace and register information will be found attached to this bug report.

The system in question is running the 64 bit version of Virtualbox 4.3.20 (4.3.20-96996~Ubuntu~raring) on a 64 bit Ubuntu 14.04 system running kernel 3.8.1.

The system runs the free Radeon drivers. The card is an AMD Radeon Evergreen (REDWOOD) PCI ID: 1002:68c1 (Dell Mobility Radeon HD 5650).

I am using this PPA for the MESA drivers: https://launchpad.net/~oibaf/+archive/ubuntu/graphics-drivers but the crash is reproducible with the stock Ubuntu 14.04 MESA drivers and has been for a while (see the next paragraph).

I have been seeing this problem over the last several (I'd say 3 or 4) iterations of Virtualbox as well as the last 2 iterations of the OS (Currently Ubuntu 14.04 but previously 12.04), and across a wide range of kernels.

Further debugging information (including a Stack Trace e.t.c.) is attached but here are the basics:

- The crash occurs due to Signal 11 in r600_dri.so
- Summary Segv Analysis:
{{{

I noticed when I restart or shutdown Slackware, in the console, I am seeing the NUL character with a value of 0 that is represented as `^@` appear next to text on the screen.

I thought at first something in the Slackware system was causing this.

I was running the Guest with the default of 'Auto-resize Guest Display', this causes the console to have a small size, and it seems for some reason Virtualbox doesn't like it and creates the Nul Character, because if I change the Guest to 'Scaled Mode' it never appears.

I tested this several times changing back and forth with the 'Auto-resize Guest Dispaly' and 'Scaled Mode', and everytime it was on 'Auto-resize Guest Display' it appeared, and everytime it was on 'Scaled Mode' it did not appear.

These machines are running recently patched versions of Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.6 (Santiago). The problem has been seen on about 6 different machines. This is occuring with VirtualBox 4.3.26 but has been happening with many other recent releases in the 4.3 series. We only have 1 guest VM running on each of these RHEL machines and it is running Windows 2008 R2 64 Bit as a guest.

We have not as far as we know configured the HP Watchdog Timer in any special way.

Since then, host was wiped and Debian 7 was installed with latest !VirtualBox 4.3.26. A crash occurred again recently and so I started investigating.

Crashes seem random. Windows VM was the only VM on the host at the time of the second crash, it was just applying Windows updates. Reverting to a previous copy of VM and reapplying the same Windows updates again did not cause the crash again. Nothing appears in the logs at the time of a crash (both Linux and !VirtualBox logs).

* enhancing the way the script waits for an ACPI shutdown with a configurable $SHUTDOWN_ACPI_TIMEOUT in stop_vms()

A popup then appears prompting me to do `sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup`

If VirtualBox knows that this is needed, why doesn't it just do it itself? Maybe just showing a prompt with a more user-friendly message saying 'VirtualBox needs to recompile its kernel modules, probably due to a recent OS system update. Confirm?' and the user just presses OK and its done automatically?

At the moment this process is really annoying:
1. You have to copy the command to run from the message box.
2. You have to open a terminal window and paste it but NOT press enter, since Virtual Box is still running. If on the other hand you close Virtual Box before pasting the clipboard info is lost.
3. Close VirtualBox
4. Press enter, wait for Kernel module recompilation.
5. Start VirtualBox.

This could immensely be simplified from a user point of view if when the message is shown and the user confirms, VirtualBox automatically closes, recompiles the kernel modules and restarts.

Virtualbox 4.3.26-98988 (happened also with 4.2.28-97679)

I have an XP virtual machine with a test installation of oracle rdbms. To do some speed optimizations on some plsql code and compare results, I cloned it (complete) and changed name, mac and ip.

When one vm is running and idling and I launch the other one, both the machines go to 200% cpu consumption (quad core host). After a (long) while the second machine boot completes, and they both go back to idling.

When I log in on the second vm, the first starts spinning again. After a while the login is completed and both go back to idle.

Whatever I try to do on one of the two, the other one immediately starts using all the available cpu, 50/50 with the first one.

Both the original vm and the clone run perfectly on their own, if the other one is shut down or even paused. If I run another unrelated XP guest with one of the two, the issue does not appear.

I'm using vboxheadless and connecting with Remote Display, but this can be triggered also when not connected to the desktop, e.g. launching a plsql cpu consuming loop via sqldeveloper (not i/o bound operations).

I have the window manager (Openbox) configured so the window under the mouse pointer is automatically activated, but not brought to the front, when the pointer moves over it. (Clicking in a window does bring it to the front.)

That works fine with a VirtualBox VM which isn't in full-screen mode. However when a VM is in full-screen mode, the VM window is brought to the front as soon as it becomes active, even though it has not been clicked in.

That's quite annoying if I have Alt-Tabbed out of the VM and am using other programs, with the VM window appearing behind the other program windows. As I move the mouse pointer from one other program window to another, as it passes over part of the VM window, the VM window is brought to the front, obscuring the other program windows.

I think a better behaviour would be to only bring the VM window to the front when the user clicks in it.",Donuts

 - The VirtualBox GUI should warn the user about this.

 - There should be an error displayed if port forwarding fails because the port is privileged.

15394,GetLogicalProcessorInformationEx() broken under Windows 7,Windows,VirtualBox 4.3.36,2016-05-07T08:39:16Z,2016-05-07T08:39:16Z,2016-05-07T08:39:16Z,"Hi.

So, the main issue I want to report is that GetLogicalProcessorInformationEx() basically returns garbage under Windows 7.  It's a fresh, Vanilla install of Windows 7.  The only software installed is the Windows Platform SDK.  The first record returned looks okay, but they rapidly deteriorate until after two or three you're looking at 0xCDCDCDCDCD, etc.

GetLogicalProcessorInformation(), the earlier version (no ""Ex"" on the end), also has a problem, but it seems mainly to work - the problem is that it only reports data caches.  No instruction or unified caches are reported.  Everything else seemed fine, on my one system.

Separately from VB, but related to getting this bug reported, the Oracle account creation process appears to have a number of issues.

1. The account creation page does not load if DOM storage is turned off.
2. Upon creating the account, a page is shown saying an email has been sent with instructions to activate the account.  In fact, a password reset email has been sent.
3. Upon performing the password reset, a SECOND password reset email is sent.
4. Upon performing the second reset, the account is confirmed.
5. Trying to log in does not work, at least not under Firefox - ""page is not redirectly correctly"".  However, you are in fact logged in, and so I was able to come back to this page and post this bug report.

As an aside, I spent three hours this morning trying to get VB 5.0 installed, to see if the GetLogicalProcessorInformationEx() existed there.  I was able to install 5.0 itself just fine from the VB repos, but the QT interface is not provided.  After a few hours, I concluded that although the QT package is shown via the web by Debian to be present in jessie-backports, it in fact is not present (not indeed are any of the 5.0 packages); aptitude only finds 4.3.36.  I gave up.

12495,Sampling profiling method not usable in Visual Studio 2013,Windows,VirtualBox 4.3.4,2013-12-16T16:59:36Z,2016-10-30T10:56:59Z,2016-10-30T10:56:59Z,"Windows 7 Enterprise SP1 x86 guest (VM from Microsoft's http://modern.ie/ site), Lubuntu 11.10 x86-64 host. Laptop CPU Intel Core 2 Duo T8100. VM is set to use one CPU core.

I installed Visual Studio 2013 and am trying to use its profiling feature. However the ""sampling"" mode doesn't work. I can launch the executable to be profiled, but on exiting it Visual Studio reports that no samples were captured.

This bug report is to suggest that support for whichever CPU performance counters or timer hardware that Visual Studio profiling uses, be added to VirtualBox.

I found an MSDN blog post about profiliing in virtual environments:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/mgoldin/archive/2010/01/09/visual-studio-profiler-in-virtual-environment.aspx
That mentions VS 2010, so I assume VS 2012 and VS 2013 have the same issue. According to that post, Visual Studio has specific support for VMWare, Virtual PC and Hyper-V VMs.
""Visual Studio profiler usage on virtual machines was limited so far, as it didn’t support Sampling mode in such environment. I’m glad to note that in Visual Studio 2010 you can sample your applications inside of virtual machines. VMs could be created using either VPC, VMWare of Hyper-V technologies. 
Some hardware is not virtualized, though, and CPU performance counters (that are used by profiler) are, unfortunately, in the list. To overcome the issue, we used a different approach that targets each VM-vendor specifically, and timers that are used in virtual world are not the same as on a raw hardware. Some functionality, however, suffers from lack of CPU performance counters virtualization.""

Also a comment at
   http://serverfault.com/questions/194585/visual-studio-profiler-in-virtual-machine 
mentions that profiling uses the Local APIC timer.

 * lags so bad that viewing is unbearable,

 * very clear vertical sync problem (i.e. half new frame on upper part of screen, half old frame on lower part of screen), and

 * the audio output is stuttering (indicating CPU overuse).

So it looks like video presentation is unaccelerated!


(B)
Installing VLC player and making it use the ""Direct2D video output"" rendering backend, produces *excellent* video playback though!

If I only knew how to switch the web browsers into this video output mode!

(There is a slight vertical sync but that's fine.)


(B.2)
In VLC, using the ""DirectX"" backend shows a black window though!

(B.3)
In VLC, using the ""Direct3D"" or ""OpenGL"" backend crashes VLC though - it just exits and there's no crash report dialog box or alike!

(B.4)
In VLC, using the ""Windows GDI"" backend produces the same video display experience as in (A), i.e. stuttering video and audio - this indicates that (A) is made completely without acceleration?

(B.5)
In VLC, using the ""OpenGL (experimental)"" backend gives no output.

(C)
The video in (A) was HTML5 video playback. Also trying Flash video playback on http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/vidtemplate-engage-with-flash.html gives some kind of stuttering in the video and audio playback, while not nearly as bad as in (A), it's still very laggy.

14923,`guestcontrol run` memory leak in host,Windows,VirtualBox 5.0.10,2015-12-12T00:43:40Z,2018-08-28T09:12:25Z,2018-08-28T09:12:25Z,"#14850 is the only other open memory leak I can find.  That looks like a guest side leak associated with disk IO, but this is a host side leak associated with `vboxmanage <name> guestcontrol run`

I'm running an Ubuntu host, and a Windows 7 (all updates installed) guest.  The guest is given 1 CPU and 2GB of RAM, but I can get it to consume >8GB of RAM (enough to have the Linux OOM system kill it).  I verified that the guest stabilizes at using ~650MB of RAM in this case, so the leak is definitely on the host side.  To trigger the leak, I first start my VM:

{{{
ian$ vboxheadless -startvm win-7-pro-loaded-base
}}}

Then I run: 
{{{
ian$ vboxmanage guestcontrol win-7-pro-loaded-base run --username administrator ""C:\\Windows\\System32\\ping.exe"" -- ""-t"" ""localhost"" 2>&1
}}}

You can accelerate the leak by running many of the `vboxmanage` commands in parallel.  With 6 running, the `vboxheadless` process went from using 3GB to 5GB (RES in `htop`) RAM in 12 minutes.

Attached are the VBox.log from one occassion of running this, along with an image of `vboxheadless` memory use over time with 6 `vboxmanage` commands running, and an image of the stabilized guest memory.

I also attached a zip of running:
{{{
sudo strace -i -ff -p <vboxheadless first thread PID> -o strace_output/strace
}}}

for a few minutes while the 6 `vboxmanage` commands were running.

Let me know if there's more information I can supply, or if you'd like me to try anything.  I started along the path of building and running virtualbox from source so I could poke around, but I'm having a few issues.

VirtualBox retrieves the addresses from {{{/proc/net/if_inet6}}}. Here is an example of what these entries look like:
{{{
$ cat /proc/net/if_inet6

}}}

Note the order of the addresses. When VirtualBox parses the file, the code assumes there would only be one entry for an interface (and does not terminate early), i.e. (this is NetIf-linux.cpp):
{{{#!c
173             for (;;)

192                     pInfo->IPv6Address.au32[0] = htonl(IPv6Address.au32[0]);
193                     pInfo->IPv6Address.au32[1] = htonl(IPv6Address.au32[1]);
194                     pInfo->IPv6Address.au32[2] = htonl(IPv6Address.au32[2]);

198             }
199             fclose(fp);
200         }
}}}

For the above example, the last, Link-Local entry wins. Since VirtualBox does not handle multiple addresses per interface, it should at least ignore the Link-Local automatically created addresses. Unfortunately, this means that it would be impossible to tell which address to pick if a user configures a different link-local address.

After having used 4.X with great pleasure for a long time to debug Windows USB issues in Linux (Fedora), i have hit a snag in the 5.X series.

The problem is always the same. If i start streaming ISO packets they get stuck after a very short while. In the early 5.X builds the entire VM would implode, but now it just hangs the USB stream until i unplug the device.
There is some kind of bug in the 5.X USB implementation. If its the VB drivers in Linux or the virtual drivers in Windows is not clear to me.

Has anyone else seen this problem? I have tried all combinations of options i could think of but the problem persists.

I have attached a Wireshark trace that shows the problem up until the hang. Note that when this happens the *entire* USB freezes up, not just the ISO packets.

Thanks,

My host is a NAS-like CentOS 6 box with no attached monitor, no X server and no sound card. On it I spawn a bunch of lightweight bridged Windows machines for browser testing and connect to them from my desktop PC running Windows (gigabit LAN between the client and server).

This setup worked flawlessly with Virtualbox 4.3 and Windows 8.1. I've stopped using the VMs for a while and recently ressurected them with the following changes:

* Updated to Virtualbox 5
* Switched desktop to Windows 10

Since I did that, I'm getting choppy high pitched audio when connecting to the VMs (both before and after installing guest additions). The emulated chipset is Intel HDA and the driver is obviously Null as the host doesn't have a sound card. I originally thought this was an emulation issue, however:

* after doing some research about other issues about windows 10 clients being unable to connect in previous versions
* and reading on some other oracle website that VRDP only supports 22050 audio (not explicitly related to vbox, but pretty sure the V stands for the same thing),

I believe the issue is strictly related to the changes in the Windows 10 RDP client because:

1. playing back a realtime 22050hz stream on a 44100 output device would explain both symptoms (high pitch caused by the freq mismatch and choppiness caused by buffer underrun)
2. setting up a windows RDP server on a guest (tested on a win10 guest) and connecting to that works flawlessly

Unfortunately, I don't have a Windows 7 box to test this on, but I'm going to try some RDP-ception later today.

If I open a random text file of 12582911 bytes (eg. in Notepad) in the guest OS, select it's entire contents and copy it to the (shared) clipboard, then I can paste this into gedit in the host OS.

If I add a single character to the end of the file (so it becomes 12582912 bytes long) and do the same, I cannot paste the clipboards contents into eg. gedit in the host OS.

And of course: anything below 12582911 bytes works too and anything above 12582912 bytes doesn't work. :-)

I tried various apps in the guest (Notepad, Wordpad, Notepad++, Total Commander) to open the text file and copy it's contents to the shared clipboard. And I tried various apps in the host OS too to paste the contents of the clipboard. All showed the same symptom.

I created the test text file in linux using this command (I used unix2dos to convert the text file to DOS/Windows line endings so eg. Notepad won't die on me):

USB 3.0 XHCI activated. [[BR]] [[BR]]


There is a USB Barcode Scanner (Datalogic Powerscan) connected
and installed.
For some reasons, the scanner is not working proberly. 
It works correct for 5-10 times of scanning
and then it drops a couple of characters out for the next scan.
It correctly scans into Linux - without any error.

''It must be a reason of the Virtualbox USB Handling.''

'''If i open wireshark with USBPcap installed and start to sniff the USB ports the problem is solved, as long as the Wireshark is running.'''
See attached File for more information of scans.

There are already 2 Tickets of this problem, years ago but without any solution

16385,PCI passthrought works incorrectly with I/O ports,Linux,VirtualBox 5.0.20,2017-01-15T13:18:39Z,2017-01-16T15:45:15Z,2017-01-16T15:45:15Z,"Hello,

I am using virtualBox 5.0.20 OSS with extension pack

# VBoxManage list extpacks
Extension Packs: 1
Pack no. 0:   Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack
Version:      5.0.20
Revision:     106931
Edition:      
Description:  USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 Host Controller, Host Webcam, VirtualBox RDP, PXE ROM, Disk Encryption.
VRDE Module:  VBoxVRDP
Usable:       true 
Why unusable:

Host kernel is 3.16.7
Guest kernel is 4.9.0

On the host machine I have the following PCI device:

04:00.0 0700: 1393:1320 (rev 02) (prog-if 80)
        Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster- SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR- FastB2B- DisINTx-
        Status: Cap- 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B+ ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort- <TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- INTx-
        Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 19
        Region 1: I/O ports at e080 [size=128]
        Region 2: I/O ports at e100 [size=64]
        Region 3: I/O ports at e140 [size=16]
        Kernel driver in use: pci-stub
        Kernel modules: mxser

When passed into the guest system it looks like the following:

03:00.0 0700: 1393:1320 (rev 02) (prog-if 80)
        Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster- SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR- FastB2B- DisINTx-
        Status: Cap- 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B+ ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort- <TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- INTx-
        Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 17
        Region 1: I/O ports at e000 [size=128]
        Region 2: I/O ports at e080 [size=64]
        Region 3: I/O ports at e0c0 [size=16]

However, access to I/O ports doesn't work in guest system.

To test I/O ports the following simple code snipped is used: https://gist.github.com/matwey/b42f8b9fb50ab8c603d120c54d04c9be

On the host (when accessed to 0xe100) result is the following:

# ./a.out 
64: FF 00 01 00 00 60 90 00 FF 00 01 00 00 60 90 00 FF 00 01 00 00 60 90 00 FF 00 01 00 00 60 90 00 FF 00 01 00 00 60 90 00 FF 00 01 00 00 60 90 00 FF 00 01 00 00 60 90 00 FF 00 01 00 00 60 90 00

On the guest (when accessed to 0xe080) result is the following:

# ./a.out

I can move the non-seamless window to whichever screen I choose, use HOST+l to go seamless and it'll be seamless on the monitor that the non-maximized guest OS was on.

 4. Restart the VM

The !VirtualBox version I am using is 5.0.24, but I have tried to install guest additions 5.1.4, since the former one doesn't compile under kernel 4.7.2 32 bits.

The exact sequence of commands used are:
{{{
# sudo dnf install install gcc cpp kernel-devel kernel-headers kernel-PAE-devel
# sudo wget http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/5.1.4/VBoxGuestAdditions_5.1.4.iso
# sudo mkdir /tmp/vbox
# sudo mount -o loop /home/vagrant/VBoxGuestAdditions_5.1.4.iso /tmp/vbox
# sudo sh /tmp/vbox/VBoxLinuxAdditions.run
}}}

In the last step it hangs after the following messages are shown:
{{{

I have also tried with the latest test build at https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/VBoxGuestAdditions_5.1.5-110588.iso but the result is the same.

Exactly the same procedure for a Fedora 24 64 bits guest is working fine and the guest installation finishes without problems.

A pstree command shows the following relevant process tree:
{{{
  │   │           └─sudo,30032 sh -x /tmp/vbox/VBoxLinuxAdditions.run
  │   │               └─sh,30033 -x /tmp/vbox/VBoxLinuxAdditions.run

So it looks like it is loading the kernel module where the installation hangs.

3) switch to workspace B before restore is completed
4) wait some time for restoring to complete
5) switch back to workspace A

If, instead, you don't switch workspace for the duration of the restore, the darkening is removed at completion.

Note that if - from another workspace - I ""look"" at the VirtualBox window using a video capture device (e.g. obs-studio), the window is correctly not darkened.

Really odd behaviour we are getting from our VMs. We have 3 VMs running windows 7 and each has a dongle that grants access to proprietary software. 2 dongles grant access to HASP software and 1 grants access to Windfarmer. These usb devices are incorrectly named in Virtual box which is causing some confusion, We can only use Windfarmer software when one of the ""HASP"" dongles is connected and vice versa.

Not sure how/when this began happening or why. This would be a purely aesthetic problem but the two HASP dongles are identical and cannot be distinguished between each other using the USB filter so occasional they are assigned to the incorrect VM which means we have to manually fix it.

If an out-of-disk condition occurs, VBox very nicely pauses the VM and pops up a message so you can fix the problem and resume.  However, it continues to hold the virtual disk (including snapshot) files open, so even if they are moved and replaced by symlinks, no disk space can be freed up.  If the VM was running in a dedicated partition, i.e., there is nothing else to move or delete besides VM's files, then there is no possible recovery without loosing VM state; VBox won't close the old files until the VM is shut down, and it and it can't save the VM state if disk is full.

Following are a couple of suggestions, one basic and the other fancy:

Method A (Basic): When a VM is ""paused"", close all the VM's files, at least the virtual disks; re-open them only when the VM is resumed.

   This would let you manually relocate a virtual disk and replace it with a symlink while the VM is paused.  Using the symlink would be necessary because the .vbox file still could not be edited while VBox is running.

Method B (Fancy): Provide a comprehensive command to move a virtual disk, updating VirtualBox.xml or the VM's .vbox file as appropriate.  For example

  VBoxManage modifyvm <vmident> --movemedium <uuid|filename> /destination/folder/
  VBoxManage modifyvm <vmident> --movesnap <snapid|filename> /destination/folder/

This would 
  1. pause all VMs using the specified virtual disk *if not already paused*
(and make them close the underlying files, just as in the simpler method above); 
  2. move the file, 
  3. update and rewrite VirtualBox.xml or the VM's .vbox file with the new path; 
  4. resume VMs paused in step 1 (but not VMs which were already paused)

18028,"Mouse wheel scrolling usually not working, cursor off, hotkeys not sent to vm, after moving to edge of screen",Linux,VirtualBox 5.1.0,2018-10-03T14:20:07Z,2018-10-03T14:20:07Z,2018-10-03T14:20:07Z,"This is not a new issue but I couldn't find a related bug report that's still open.

I believe the following issues may be related.

A) Mouse wheel scrolling usually doesn't work while ""mouse integration"" is not active (input captured). It always works fine at first, right after clicking or hitting Ctrl in the VM window to capture both mouse and keyboard. At some point, it stops working. Hitting Ctrl to release the mouse reveals that the host's mouse cursor is usually about half a screen away from the VM's cursor. After moving the host's cursor back to where the VM's cursor is and then clicking to recapture the input, it works again. But not for long.
This is happening so often that I tend to not use the mouse wheel at all and use the good old scrollbar buttons instead. Unfortunately, some desktop environments (Gnome/GTK) have lost the scrollbar buttons for whatever reason. In that case, the combination of a temporarily broken scroll wheel *and* a broken scrollbar makes it rather difficult to navigate through content (vertically and horizontally).

B) Whenever a VM is started, mouse integration is active by default, which means the VM's cursor is moved together with the host's cursor as long as it's within the VM window without requiring the user to click into the VM window first.
Unfortunately, the cursor is often way off. Sometimes even a third cursor would fit between the host's and the VM's cursor. I'll attach a screenshot.
This is one of the reasons why I usually disable mouse integration after starting a VM. But then, the first issue happens.

C) While mouse integration is active, hotkeys often don't work, i.e., they're not sent to the VM. For example, after starting a VM, you'd hit Alt + Tab while working inside the VM and you get the host's task switcher showing your open Virtualbox windows. What you actually wanted to do is switch windows inside the VM.
You have to first click somewhere inside the VM and then hit Ctrl to temporarily capture the keyboard and send hotkeys to the VM. I say temporarily because at random times, apparently when moving the cursor to the edge of the screen (but strangely not always), it stops working again and the next time Alt + Tab is used, it's sent to the host again.
This is the main reason why I have to disable mouse integration after starting a VM and then only interact with the VM with mouse and keyboard captured and locked inside the VM window.

D) This is just a minor glitch. I don't remember when I first noticed that but it wasn't always like this. The user interface bar at the top of the screen gets stuck, covering that area in the VM. That's particularly annoying if the DE's panel (task bar) is at the top of the screen. This is solved by moving the host's cursor over the user interface panel and back in the VM, then it disappears normally.

E) This is not a glitch, just a note: When mouse integration is disabled but the input controls are *not* captured (e.g., VM on one monitor, host applications on another monitor), most keystrokes are still sent to the guest system (of course no hotkeys) while the VM window is focused. This may be counterintuitive because not having clicked into the VM window means that the user does not want to interact with it. Accidentally moving the host's mouse to the VM window may change the focus and then hitting space may active a button in the guest instead of inserting a whitespace in a host application window.

If it makes a difference, most VM windows are used in full screen mode. There may be a second or third monitor with other VMs or host application windows running.

Again, I am under the impression that the issues described above may be symptoms of one general issue. It appears that the VM window sometimes loses the input controls while the user is working with the VM or they get ""out of sync"" unexpectedly.

This behavior has been seen on different systems, but most recently on Debian, currently running Virtualbox 5.1.38. Some guest systems are running Fedora 28.

15655,KDE Active Screen Edge Actions of host are not disabled when running a guest OS in full screen mode,other,VirtualBox 5.1.0,2016-07-21T15:40:53Z,2016-07-21T15:40:53Z,2016-07-21T15:40:53Z,"When running a virtual machine in full screen mode (Host Key + F) under KDE on a Linux host, the Active Screen Edge Actions as configured in System Settings -> Workspace -> Desktop Behavior -> Screen Edges are still triggered by KDE when moving the mouse pointer into the respective corner. This collides with similiar functions of the guest desktop environment (e.g. when running a KDE guest on a KDE host).  For example when setting the upper left corner to ""Lock Screen"" or ""Present Windows - All Desktops"", moving the mouse courser into the upper left corner inside a guest machine triggers the respective action of the host machine.

When running a virtual machine in full screen mode, host features such as KDE Active Screen Edges should be disabled by VirtualBox.

I tested VirtualBox 5.0.24_RPMFusion r108355 under Fedora 23 with KDE 5.6.5 as well as VirtualBox 5.1.0 r108711 on Kubuntu 16.04 Xenial with KDE 5.5.5.

16233,Vbox bridge loses outer QinQ tag,Linux,VirtualBox 5.1.10,2016-11-25T20:03:58Z,2017-04-24T16:13:18Z,2017-04-24T16:13:18Z,"Virtualox bridge loses outer QinQ tag if bridged with Linux TAP interface

Steps to reproduce:

 1. Install OS Linux on PC.
 In my case: Ubuntu 14.04.5
 kernel 4.2.0-42-generic X86_64

 2. Install !VirtualBox (in my case ver. 5.1.10 !r112026 (Qt5.6.1)) from [http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/5.1.10/virtualbox-5.1_5.1.10-112026~Ubuntu~trusty_amd64.deb here]

 3. Download and install guest Linux OS.
 In my case Ubuntu 16.04.01 from [http://releases.ubuntu.com/16.04/ubuntu-16.04.1-server-i386.iso here]

 4. On host system create tap interface:
{{{
ip tuntap add dev tap10 mode tap
ip link set dev tap10 up
}}}
 5. In guest VM netwrok settings set network adapter to ""bridge"" mode to interface tap10
{{{
vboxmanage modifyvm TESTVM --nic2 bridged
vboxmanage modifyvm TESTVM --bridgeadapter2 tap10
}}}
	
 All other network settings may be set to default. I tried to change the ""adapter type"" and ""promiscuous mode"". Their change does not change the result. 
	
 6. Create QINQ subinterface on host interface tap10 with inner vlan 2000 and outer vlan 100 and set ip address (type of protocol 802.1q or 802.1ad not important. This change does not change the result):
{{{
ip link add link tap10 tap10.100 type vlan proto 802.1q id 100
ip link set up tap10.100
ip link add link tap10.100 tap10.100.2000 type vlan proto 802.1q id 2000
ip link set up tap10.100.2000
ip addr add 10.11.12.1/24 dev tap10.100.2000
}}}
	
 7. Start up guest VM and determine which interface bridged with tap10
	In my case this is a '''enp0s8'''
 8. Create QINQ subinterface on VM interface which bridged with tap10 with inner vlan 2000 and outer vlan 100 and set ip address (type of protocol 802.1q or 802.1ad not important. This change does not change the result):
{{{
ip link set up enp0s8
ip link add link enp0s8 enp0s8.100 type vlan proto 802.1q id 100
ip link set up enp0s8.100
ip link add link enp0s8.100 enp0s8.100.2000 type vlan proto 802.1q id 2000
ip link set up enp0s8.100.2000
ip addr add 10.11.12.2/24 dev enp0s8.100.2000
}}}
 9. start watch for traffic on host PC on tap10 interface:
{{{
tcpdump -i tap10 -vvv -e
}}}
 for creating pcap file
{{{
tcpdump -i tap10 -vvv -e -w qinqPC.pcap
}}}
	
 10. start watch for traffic in guest VM on ""physical"" interface:
{{{
tcpdump -i enp0s8 -vvv -e
}}}
 for creating pcap file
{{{
tcpdump -i enp0s8 -vvv -e -w qinqVM.pcap
}}}
	
 11. Try to ping 10.11.12.2 from 10.11.12.1 (Host PC => Guest VM)
{{{
ping 10.11.12.2
}}}
	
 12. You should get the following results:[[BR]]

It does not look as a TAP bug. If a try to bridge two tap interface via linux bridge, and create QINQ subinterfaces for each of them, this problem does not appear.

The preinstall script shuts down services, but only waits 1 second for VBoxSVC to terminate, when it takes closer to 10 (which is documented in the error message, but the script doesn't take into account!).  Thus the upgrade fails, but works if you try again after the service terminates.

The solution is to chane the 'sleep 1' on line 103 of /usr/lib/virtualbox/routines.sh to 'sleep 10' (or do a loop checking ever second for 10 seconds, or something like that).

16450,VM locks up when setting --discard and --nonrotational and using fstrim,Linux,VirtualBox 5.1.14,2017-02-04T02:32:50Z,2020-03-21T16:49:41Z,2020-03-21T16:49:41Z,"I changed the settings of my Xubuntu VM to emulate an SSD:

{{{
VBoxManage storageattach Xubuntu --storagectl SATA --port 0 --discard on --nonrotational on
}}}

After that started the VM. Everything runs fine until running fstrim in the VM. First the VDI file is shrinked a bit, then VirtualBox starts continuously reading from host filesystem (I guess from the VDI file). After some time the VM guest OS reports storage problems (timeouts) in dmesg output. No access to emulated storage is possible after that, but VM continues to run (e.g. scrolling in windows, moving mouse, ...). See attached VM screenshots and VBox.log for details.

I already observed the same behavior with a Windows 10 VM which locked up in the same way, but then I did not record any logs or error information.

Problem seems to be similar to ticket #15509.

16417,vboxsf crashes process or VM in case of many file stat operations on shared vboxsf file system in a short time,Linux,VirtualBox 5.1.14,2017-01-23T08:42:05Z,2017-07-20T17:23:49Z,2017-07-20T17:23:49Z,"We use a vagrant based toolchain to automatically generate VMs for executing unit tests. They run on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS 64-bit hosts, and the VMs themselves contain various different older and newer Linux distributions. We use current VirtualBox 5.1.14 and also the 5.1.14 guest tools.

Quite a significant percentage (10-20%) of our VM deployments was not successful. In case of ""default"" paravirtualization using KVM, the whole VM freezes, and the VBox.log file just says:

{{{
00:00:42.027263 VMMDev: vmmDevHeartbeatFlatlinedTimer: Guest seems to be unresponsive. Last heartbeat received 4 seconds ago
}}}

If using the ""minimal"" paravirtualization, VM operation continues, just the unit test process itself dies (see log below). This happens consistently at the same place where there are many stat() calls made to get the ctime information of many thousands of (empty) cache files on a shared vboxsf file system, before outdated files are supposed to be cleaned up. If I remove this code part, the error does not occur any more. Therefore my (uneducated) assumption is that it could be related to running many stat operations in a short time. Here's the stack trace as found in /var/log/kern.log in the instance.

*copying an overwriting modified text file causes error on Ubuntu 16 guest
after overwriting, file contains invalid characters. (can be check with Ubuntu's gedit) and sometimes missing characters.
One thing I found weird is, if you open the modified file in the shared folder from guest, it doesn't contain any invalid characters. Invalid character problem only rise when the file is overwritten to the folder in guest env.

*copying an overwritten text file steps can be found under 'How to reproduce the problem'

== How to reproduce the problem ==
1. (host OR guest) create a text file from the host shared folder
2. (guest) copy the shared file to any folder
3. (host) modify the file and save (if you modify the file from guest, it won't happen)
4. (guest) copy the modified file and overwrite it

I have a laptop with a 4K display. KDE / Plasma 5 are not yet suited to the resolution. To help with icon size I selected System Settings => Display and Monitor => Scaled Display (button) and set the scale to 2.0.

This doubled all my icons nicely, but within the Windows 10 VM, the graphics were scaled to half resolution on both axes, but were not scaled back up to fill the screen. Mouse clicking was difficult because they were based on the full size of the window but the graphics were 1/2 size.

This is a small issue as I just turned of the Plasma feature to fix VirtualBox. And since it limits display resolution, it's probably not a good fix for the small icons.

To clarify: ""Sound stops working"" means just that. For example, an audio file would be played in VLC and no sound would be produced (volume settings have not been changed).

There's a hint that it must have something to do with VirtualBox: After restarting the vm, it works again. It's not even necessary to restart the guest system. The vm can be suspended while VLC is running, it's then immediately resumed and as soon as it's running again, the sound is working again, the music played by VLC will come out.

This is an annoying bug because the vm has to be suspended/resumed all the time and sometimes that's not possible when certain connections should no be disrupted.

One vm has been experiencing this issue where the full screen vm window freezes, usually after the vm has been running for one or more days. I haven't noticed that issue with other vms, however, most other vms don't run for weeks.

When it happens, the vm window is not updated anymore. It doesn't show the vm anymore. Instead, it shows whatever was there on the screen earlier. If there was another window above the frozen window and that other window is closed, it's still shown in the frozen vm window. If I switch workspaces back and forth, when I switch back to the workspace with the frozen vm window, the vm window (which is in full screen mode) shows the previous workspace.
For that reason, a screenshot wouldn't be helpful, as it would simply show whatever else was on the screen before the frozen vm window was activated.

This affects the vm window, i.e., the window that shows up when you start a vm in the VirtualBox gui. The affected vm itself is still running and can be accessed via ssh.

It is possible to suspend the vm using ""vboxmanage controlvm [NAME] savestate"", but the frozen vm window won't go away. It visually looks as if nothing had changed.
The vm process keeps running after the vm is suspended:
{{{
user     985 27147 64 00:02 ?        08:10:26 /usr/lib/virtualbox/VirtualBox --comment Fedora-1 --startvm 5c908c7b-bf32-4965-be4d-a11f5abdbf04 --no-startvm-errormsgbox

user   27147     1  0 Apr10 ?        00:47:51 /usr/lib/virtualbox/VBoxSVC --auto-shutdown
}}}

If this process (985 in this example) is killed, the frozen window disappears and VirtualBox marks the vm as ""Aborted"". The saved state is lost.
I usually reset the vm to its last healthy state and start it again, which works fine every time. Until the vm window freezes again a few days later.

It's not clear what causes these freezes. I understand that this makes it very difficult to debug this, but I'm hoping this bug report helps someone else out there who is experiencing the same behavior.

Looking at the log (attached), it seems like two log entries are missing. These entries can be found at the end of the log files of other vms that were also suspended (without freeze):

  I am running the guest on hp_8670W laptop, i7, quad core, hardware virtualization, 8G of ram. Guest is allocated 1 CPU, 2560M Ram, 256M Ram to display with 3D and 2D video acceleration checked.

  The lockups are semi random. Enabling Aero works fine. The desktop looks great, but anywhere from 30 seconds to 5 minutes later, all CPU/Network/etc. indicators in the status bar go red and the guest is locked. The mouse and keyboard are also trapped in the guest and the host desktop is locked (well, left without any input devices) as well.

  When I reinstall the guest additions, removing WDDM, and drop back to the basic Win7 Pro desktop, all is fine. I can run all day/night without issue. (64M Ram for display, 2D acceleration, no 3D.)

  I'm not sure where the bug is, but I would sure like to help get it fixed.",drankinatty

I've remarked that since VirtualBox 5.0 (and further versions) any Windows guest with DWM has a very annoying blinking effect. It's very proeminent on Windows 10, 7 and Vista guest, much less on Windows 8 guests.

This problem appears especially once Firefox has been started in the guest, but also with Windows 10 start menu or if you start CCleaner in Vista with admin privileges. It is also much more likely to occur if you start the VM, then switch to another host window, and then switch back to the VM window.

I have a Dell XPS 15 9530 with a high DPI (3200x1800) screen. I'm running Arch Linux with KDE Plasma 5, which has support for high resolution displays.

With the migration of VirtualBox to QT 5, the GUI scales very well and is a pleasure to use on my high DPI screen. Except for one problem: when I install the VirtualBox Guest Additions on a Windows 8.1 or 10 host, the VM only fills up a quarter of the screen; the rest is black. The strange thing is that this only happens when the Guest Additions are installed on the Windows Guest. Without them, it runs fine.

Input is also registered wrong: I have to move in the ""black area"" in order to be able to click on something on the Windows desktop. 

Another strange thing is that when pausing the VM, VirtualBox scales the VM perfectly fine, but when resuming, it's gone.

In the past, the extra ""multimedia"" buttons on my USB keyboard (including the ""calculator"" button) have always worked.  They used to be handled by the host, even when the guest had focus.  In VB 5.1, those buttons don't work anymore when the guest has focus.

The other more serious keyboard change in VB 5.1 is that ALT+TAB is no longer always caught by the guest.  Instead of going between the apps in the guest, ALT+TAB is handled by the host, even when the guest has focus.  This doesn't happen 100% of the time.",Stéphane Charette

My setup is quite simple: Linux host (CentOS 7.3) running two Windows 7 guests.  All guests use NAT network with static IPs.  Port-forwarding is configured on the NAT network.

NAT network: 10.0.2.1/24

Forward 2: <host_ip>:5912 <--> 10.0.0.12:5900
}}}


Everything work great, until, after some time, maybe one day or two, connections to host port 2211/2212 got rejected.  One solution I find is to restart guest OS, sometime more than once, until the port-forward is normal again.

During the whole process (good --> bad --> restart --> good again), I can see that port 2211/2212 are always bound by process /usr/lib/virtualbox/VBoxNetNAT, and its pid never changed.

When connections are rejected on port 5911 and 5912, guests can connect to each other's 5900 port, which rules out guests failures.

For some reason (possibly the tiling WM resize bug on Linux) the custom/transient display resolution can be set to a very small size (e.g. 400x191) and this small size is saved to the registry in Windows. Once the WDDM driver is installed, Windows will try to add this mode to the target modes in the VidPn framework. This fails and the boot sequence appears to freeze on the Windows splash screen, rendering the VM unusable.

A workaround is to install the Guest additions in safe mode, then edit the registry keys storing the custom resolution to be a larger size, e.g. 800x600. See the attached image.

Reproduced on both OSE and non-OSE versions of Virtualbox, 5.1.22 with corresponding extpack and Guest Additions ISO installed.

This succeeded and made me wonder where the encryption keys got saved? According to some blog posts and because of tests I made before with encryption on VM level, those should be saved in the XML config of a VM, but in my case I didn't have a VM the media was attached to. I had a look in the global configuration file of the user running the VBoxManage command as well and didn't find any keys.

So where should the keys be saved if only a new medium was created and encrypted, e.g. using VBoxManage, WITHOUT attaching that medium to a VM before encryption?

Afterwards I attached the newly created, encrypted media to some test VM and at some point recognized keys in the XML config of the test VM. Did some testing and stuff and removed the medium from the test VM again to attach it to another VM. But looking at the config of the first test VM, the keys of the re-attached medium is still present there, not in the VM where the medium is currently attached to. Additionally, it is really ONLY attached to the new VM, not the former test VM anymore.

Shouldn't the keys now be part of the one and only VM the medium is attached to? I'm supposed to backup the keys for all media, but how should I do that reliably if I can't be sure where the keys are actually stored? In my case the first VM was for test purposes, the second for production. What happens if I delete the test VM now, still containing the keys of my encrypted medium, even if it's not attached anymore?

I couldn't find any more detailed documentation about where VirtualBox stores the keys when and if/how/when those parts of the config are moved in case of attaching and removing encrypted media from VMs. Looking at how important those keys are, I strongly suggest adding some paragraphs to the docs how to deal with those and what VirtualBox does automatically. Or not at all, because in my case it doesn't seem to move case around as expected...

16775,Multiple snapshots cause inconsistent parent UUID in vdi causing VER_FILE_NOT_FOUND error,Windows,VirtualBox 5.1.22,2017-05-21T16:05:59Z,2017-05-21T16:05:59Z,2017-05-21T16:05:59Z,"'''Problem:'''  Snapshotting and deleting of old snapshots in a running VM results in the retention of a reference to a deleted snapshot, inhibiting the resume of saved state.

Setup and process of snapshotting and snapshot removal:

I have a situation where I need to run a long set of analytics in a guest VM.  I constructed a single base VM that installed all the software and base set of data.  I then created 4 linked clones of that base VM.  In each clone, I then configure the specific parameters of an algorithm.  The execution of each set of analysis is approximately 1 month.

To protect myself from unexpected problems that require a complete restart of the analysis, I began to use snapshots twice a day to capture the current state so if the VM crashed for any reason (e.g. power outage or the host becoming frozen), I have a state that I can revert to and resume, losing at most 12 hours of analysis.

After a couple of days, I decided to clean up a few of the older snapshots (using the UI to remove old snapshots in the order of oldest to newest until I had only one snapshot left and the current state for each clone).

I performed the snapshot operation one each of the running clones and I conducted the snapshot removal against the running clones.  In other words, as the VM was running, I began with the oldest snapshot and used the GUI to do the removal (merge and delete).  All worked well.  The VM continued to run and I was able to take another snapshot and then remove the older snapshot.  However, when I decided to do maintenance to the host, the problem emerged.  

I saved the state of each running clone, conducted my host maintenance (basic patching and rebooted the host).  When I went to restart the 4 clones, each reports that there is a missing snapshot.  The snapshot is the immediate parent which is the snapshot just prior to the current snapshot.  Error message below.

The missing snapshot that it cannot find I believe to be the most recently removed snapshot from the running VM prior to saving the state.

I've attached 2 views from the Virtual Media Manager.  View 1 shows the child of Clone1 which represents the current state (I believe).  It also shows its parent ""missing"".  View 2 is the same but I highlighted the ""missing"" snapshot.

The third attachment is from the VBox Manager showing the snapshots for Clone1.

Doing a showmediuminfo command against the lowest level snapshot (current state), it shows that the Parent UUID as the missing snapshot (which was deleted via the GUI after it merged it with the base).

However, when I use the dumphdinfo, I get a different value for the uuidParent - which is actually the higher (and correct) UUID of the surviving and recent snapshot.

}}}

I haven't found the way to change the uuid that shows up in showmediuminfo to match the uuidParent of the dumphdinfo.  I believe this would resolve my problem and allow me to restore the saved state of my clones.

My snapshot directory also interestingly has multiple saved state files which I assume happens as part of the snapshotting of a running VM since the date and time stamp corresponds to the snapshotting events.  So, these do not look to be cleaned up by the snapshot process.

So I press the host key, right ctrl, to disable integration, and that kinda works, but only for a brief moment. Meaning:

- I press host key, icon goes from green to black.
- I can wait forever and nothing happens (ok)
- I press volume up or down, volume is changed in the host
- After about 1/2 sec the icon goes back to green and integration is active, hotkeys don't work anymore in the host.

Even more strange is the behaviour with brightness control:

- I press host key, icon goes from green to black.
- I press dimming up or down ONCE, host screen is affected
- I can wait whatever time I want
- I press dimming up or down again, host screen is affected again
- After about 1/2 sec the icon goes back to green and integration is active, hotkeys don't work anymore.

Maybe it has something to do with windows focus because these hotkeys trigger on screen notifications, but the integration is reactivated well before the notification is gone, and for brightness it only happens on the second event, so the first notification does nothing.

My host is a 8GB Ubuntu 16.04 running VirtualBox 5.1.26. I have been running a Windows XP guest without problem for the last eight years.

I upgraded my host OS and I don't want to dual boot anymore (Ubuntu/Windows 7), so I copied the relevant harddisks partitions to a VDI image. After messing around a bit with ""fdisk"" and ""grub"", I am successfully booting Windows 7 as a guest. Slow running but Nice!. It is a Windows 7 x86-64 guest.

I proceed to uninstall most HP, Adobe, etc, crap, even the ATI video driver, the WIFI driver, etc. I reboot Windows 7 guest and everything works fine except sound (disabled) and network (drivers uninstalled). I insist that windows works fine, although harddisk performance is not stellar. I disabled Security Esencials and Windows Defender too.

After rebooting one more time, I install ""VirtualBox Guest Additions"" . Install finishes correctly and prompts to reboot. I reboot... and Windows 7 guest is working fine but... with no ""VirtualBox Guest Additions"", Nothing seems to happen. Host integration is not working and VirtualBox says that there are not guest additions running in the guest. I repeat install (it goes fine) and reboot. Same thing.

Checking the guest harddisk, I see ""VirtualBox Guest Additions"" directory with 19 files inside the ""C:/Program files"" directory. Everything seems ok. But the virtual machine is not enabling the Guest Additions.

I wonder if this is a Windows 7 32/64 issue but I lack the knowledge to debug this issue myself.

As you can see, while the overall number of processors is known, the command fails to retrieve the description of some of those. The reason is pretty simple: The implementation uses a loop to iterate all processor IDs and fails, because my IDs have gaps. Look at the following output of lscpu:

{{{
NUMA node0 CPU(s):     0,2,4,6,8,10,16,18,20,22,24,26
NUMA node1 CPU(s):     1,3,5,7,9,11,17,19,21,23,25,27
}}}

The following is the implementation of VBoxManageList.cpp:

{{{
static HRESULT listHostInfo(const ComPtr<IVirtualBox> pVirtualBox)
{
	[...]
	Bstr processorDescription;
	for (ULONG i = 0; i < processorCount; i++)
	{
		CHECK_ERROR(Host, GetProcessorSpeed(i, &processorSpeed));
		if (processorSpeed)
			RTPrintf(""Processor#%u speed: %lu MHz\n"", i, processorSpeed);
		else
			RTPrintf(""Processor#%u speed: unknown\n"", i);
		CHECK_ERROR(Host, GetProcessorDescription(i, processorDescription.asOutParam()));
		RTPrintf(""Processor#%u description: %ls\n"", i, processorDescription.raw());
	}
	[...]
}
}}}

12, 13, 14 and 15 are not used currently and I'm pretty sure that I don't have any influence on those IDs. Have double-checked the BIOS and from what I've researched on the topic on how those IDs are assigned, I have the feeling that this is really some attribute of the CPUs itself and only used by the Linux kernel, not assigned. So gaps in those IDs should be a valid use case:

> The x2APIC id space is not continuously mapped to logical processors however; there can be gaps in the mapping, meaning that some intermediate x2APIC ids don't necessarily correspond to any logical processor.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CPUID#EAX.3D4_and_EAX.3DBh:_Intel_thread.2Fcore_and_cache_topology

{{{
c->cpu_core_id = apic->phys_pkg_id(c->initial_apicid, index_msb) &
 				       ((1 << core_bits) - 1);
}}}


http://elixir.free-electrons.com/linux/v4.0.9/source/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/common.c#L546

http://elixir.free-electrons.com/linux/v4.0.9/source/arch/x86/include/asm/processor.h#L114

With 8-core CPUs in mind, the gap of 2 per CPU might even make sense, because it's one additional core with hyperthreading, while the other core might simply be added at the end of the IDs.

So it seems using a loop might be a bit too naive and needs to be reworked to really use the available CPU IDs. I didn't came across any other errors like this one for now and hosting some VMs it looks like all CPUs are used by VirtualBox properly.

Since upgrade to VirtualBox 5.1.26 r117224 (from 5.1.24 r117012), the display resolution is not evaluated properly.

At startup the VM display resolution is wrong in fullscreen mode (1920x1080 instead of 1340x1440 on the host). There is no way to set it manually in Windows display properties settings. The maximum proposed resolution is 1920x1080. The host resolution (1340x1440) is not present in the proposed list.

The following workaround works:

* Disable ""Auto-resize Guest Display""
* Enable it again immediately (without any screen mode change before)

Then the guest window is set to the proper resolution (and this resolution become available in the Windows display settings).

'''Remark:''' there is another bug. Just after the VM startup (in fullscreen mode), this workaround cannot be applied directly. In the mini bar, the ""Auto-resize Guest Display"" option is not clickable (like if it was disabled). Pressing <host>-F  (to exit fullscreen mode) then  pressing <host>-F one time again (to get back in fullscreen mode) fixes it. The ""Auto-resize Guest Display"" option become operable.

The effect of the workaround is very volatile. If, for any reason, the guest display resolution is reevaluated, then the correct resolution is lost. For example, in all the following situations (but not limited to), the correct resolution is lost and the workaround has to be applied again to recover the correct screen resolution:

* The VM state is saved and the restored later
* The VM window is minimized and then restored on the host.
* The guest screen mode is changed (any mode), then restored to fullscreen.
* ...

Apparently, any action that conduct to reevaluate the guest display resolution bring back a wrong one (except if you are lucky and have a 1920x1080 display). The workaround must be applied again to get back to the correct screen resolution.

That ''sometimes'' means like 1/10 to 1/50. I can only do hard power off, the system does not react on anything (I tried sending Ctrl+Alt+Del, sending the shutdown signal). The screen remains frozen (no BSOD or such). The integrated cursor moves normally and shows the Windows cursor, though.

I mostly experience the problem with USB device SEGGER J-Link Ultra [0100] (1366:0101), as I do need to attach it detach it quite frequently. I have it in the autoconnect filter. There was no problem with this device on my previous machine (Debian 8 64bit host, Win7 Pro 32bit guest, VirtualBox 4.3). Anyway, I don't think it's a problem of this particular device. Once or twice I experienced this behaviour without having the device attached to the computer.

I'm experiencing the problem since I upgraded my PC (new HW, new host system, new virtual system). I already updated all (host, vbox, guest) a couple of times, with no change.

I had been thinking about moving the ""content"" (applications) to a virtual Windows 7 box instead anyway, so I created a new Windows 7 x86 Guest. Again, everything ran fine for a while, and then would all of a sudden crash, or not boot, or freeze.

After having pulled my hair out for a few days, I tried uninstalling the VirtualBox GuestOS Additions. First from the XP Guest, and when that got a lot more stable, I did the same thing for the Windoes 7 Guest.

No more crashes, no more sudden freezing, no more BSOD.

Description: x86 virtualization solution - base binaries
 VirtualBox is a free x86 virtualization solution allowing a wide range
 of x86 operating systems such as Windows, DOS, BSD or Linux to run on a
 Linux system.
 .
 This package provides the binaries for VirtualBox. Either the virtualbox-dkms
 or the virtualbox-source package is also required in order to compile the
 kernel modules needed for virtualbox. A graphical user interface for
 VirtualBox is provided by the package virtualbox-qt.

17909,weird time adjustment,Windows,VirtualBox 5.1.38,2018-08-02T08:39:40Z,2018-08-02T08:39:40Z,2018-08-02T08:39:40Z,"Hello. I use ""VirtualBox Graphical User Interface Version 5.1.38_Ubuntu r122592 © 2004-2018 Oracle Corporation (Qt5.5.1)"". And using Windows XP on it. I use my own program to track the accuracy of the time, and sometimes I notice that Windows is weirdly tuning the time. For example I attach today's graph of adjustment.

It can be seen that the detuning runs on some kind of sinusoid, and then at some point it goes out on a flat line. Then, when the detuning builds up, it for some reason again goes to the sinusoid of an unacceptably large amplitude, and then again sets the normal time. On the vertical axis - milliseconds. That is, during these sinusoid detuning reaches 15 seconds - it's terrible, I think. 

I tried to disable the vm module on WindowsXP, and the tuning is disabled, but the clipboard between vm and my machine stops working as well - thats not good.

So, I have a couple of questions:

1) Why is there such a strange sinusoid used in the time adjustment (which uses the SetSystemTimeAdjustment) instead of a rapidly decaying exponent?

2) can I disable this strange time adjustment without disabling the clipboard?

It looks like VBoxService is failing to handle interrupted system calls correctly.


From http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/ptrace.2.html :
(Programs which do not expect such ""stray"" EINTR errors may behave in an unintended way upon an strace(1) attach.)


I presume VBoxService is waiting on a syscall, such as poll() and receives an EINTR error when the process is interrupted. The error is recoverable, and the call should just be retried in this case, but it looks like the error is being treated as a problem and isn't silently/cleanly recovered.

I found somewhere that adding `nosmap` to kernel parameters would work, and once I managed to boot the guest system up. Today it didn't help.

I'm attaching the VBox.log, hopefully it helps. In it you will see that guest additions are from an older version. The guest OS was used in an older version (Ubuntu repository version 5.0.24-dfsg-0ubuntu1.16.04.1), but it shouldn't affect this as during the aforementioned time I managed to run the system, it informed me about this but didn't prevent the usage at all.

I'm not sure if the issues are caused by Windows (at least a clean reinstall did not solve them) or VirtualBox but to go sure I have created this ticket. In the attachments is the VBox.log of a session where both issues got reproduced. Also there is a testcase for the lockup issue (testcase.css and testcase.html) which needs to be put into a shared folder and testcase.html needs then to be opened with any browser (for example Google Chrome). Keeping F5 pressed to cause Chrome to reload the testcase multiple times should cause the race condition to appear after a few seconds (noticeable by not seeing the green circle on Virtual Box's shared folder symbol anymore and Chrome trying to load the site for an infinite amount of time).",Sworddragon

Also, there is another problem which might be unrelated but flash videos on different sites hang while loading inside VM. Sometimes they even become slow.However, they instantly open on browsers outside the VM. In the 5.0 series I used to face flash videos becoming *slow* during playback(like 1 second on the flash video elapsing after 3 seconds in real). I didnt report it because a restart would fix the problem for many hours till it recurred. This problem seems to have been cured in 5.1 though.

If I succeed logging into the client, the keyboard works fine.

The scenario:

I just updated the host from Ubuntu 14.04 to 16.04. 
On 14.04 I never saw this problem.
Maybe I should mention, that I upgraded Virtualbox also from 4.3.x to 5.1.4.

I have some headless Windows guests (Win 7, Win 10) - all of them have the same problem.

When I now try to connect from a Linux machine:

rdesktop -a 24 -g 1600x950 -z -N -xl -u klaus -d gbr 192.168.1.30

I see the welcome (login) screen and I'm able to use the mouse, but I cannot type in a password.

I can workaround this using the -p option:

rdesktop -a 24 -g 1600x950 -z -N -xl -u klaus -d gbr -p - 192.168.1.30

but thus is nasty, as you cannot put such stuff into a menu item (putting the password in plain text would help, but us at least as nasty).

Strange to say, that this phenomenon does *not* occur, when I omit all those user related options (-u, -d, -p). When using this commandline:

rdesktop -a 24 -g 1600x950 -z -N -xl 192.168.1.30

everything is fine. I see the login screen and can type in my credentials.
Unfortunately I have to type in all the stuff now (user, domain, password) each time ... that's annoying, but it works .... as long as noone uses one of the -u, -d, -p options.
If anyone tries to connect using one of these options, the keyboard is dead at the login screen for all subsequent connects. 
I need to poweroff/startup the guest machine to get this working again.

This is reproducable with rdesktop 1.7.1 (e.g. on LinuxMint 17.1) as well as with rdesktop 1.8.3 (e.g. on Ubuntu 16.04). Therefore I'd say this is no rdesktop problem but rather a problem of virtualbox.
I unfortunately haven't found possibilities to debug/trace those connections - that would possibly give us some more informations...",kläuser

One possible workaround is to pause all vms, another is to keep all vms visible on a focused workspace while removing one output. Furthermore while working with two monitors the workspaces can be moved between them without causing a crash of the hidden and unpaused vms.

This is a quite strange but easy reproducible behavior. For testing purposes I set up new vms without virtual HDs just running into BIOS-settings and they crashed too.

Hi.

I have DL380 G7, with latest CentOS 6. Also, kernel is upgraded to kernel-lt - 3.10.x. Host have 2 NIC's enabled (configured).

I'm using latest VirtualBox 5.1.x.

Test scenario involves two VM's, and both of them are attached to both host NIC's (bridge). In VM's, both vNIC are set as virtio, and vCPU is set to 1. VM's are Centos 6 also.

Everything works ok - i'm getting >140Mbytes/s on all interfaces (eth0<->eth0 and eth1<->eth1 from VM to VM).

Now, on one of those VM's, increase number of vCPU to 2. Things now start to behave erratic.

For a short time, eth0<->eth0 is ok, and then starts to fluctuate widely - from ~100Kb/s to 50Mb/s. At the same time eth1<->eth1 stays >140Mb/s.

In rare occasion, eth0 can work ok, eth1 poorly.

Changing one of interfaces with Intel (so only one vNIC is virtio) makes things work stable - if eth0 was switched to Intel, it is >20Mb/s, while eth1 stays >140Mb/s.

From this, i would conclude that there is some kind of race condition with virtio when VM uses vCPU>1.

Also, i do not know how to debug this furtherer. Please advise.

Thanks for !VirtualBox, it's a great product.

I use !VirtualBox as my hypervisor for virtual OpenStack deployments.
I have been using it since the early 5.0 times to deploy multi-nodes OpenStack deployments. These deployments typically include 4 to 12 nodes as VBox machines, using multiple e1000 interfaces (4 per vbox machine, 3 of them being host-only network interfaces).

Here's some more detail:

- Large RHEL6.x hypervisor (128Gb or 192Gb RAM). These typically are kept up-to-date with the RedHat kernels.
- One large undercloud VBox VM (16Gb, pagefusion off, nestedpaging on, vtxvpid on, largepages on, paravirt KVM). It has 4 NICs:
 - nic0: hostonly to `vboxnet0`
 - nic1: hostonly to `vboxnet1`
 - nic2: hostonly to `vboxnet2`
 - nic3: Bridged to external network (Main Hypervisor interface)

- 8 to 16 overcloud VBox VM's with the same settings as the above but using a slightly different NIC configuration:
 - nic0: hostonly to `vboxnet0`
 - nic1: hostonly to `vboxnet1`
 - nic2: hostonly to `vboxnet1` (to make a BOND with nic1)
 - nic3: hostonly to `vboxnet2` 

On nic1/nic2 (connected to `vboxnet1`), I use a mixture of 802.1Q Tagged VLAN's (this is specific to OpenStack).

As I am testing some OpenStack corner cases, I am deleting/re-creating this setup on a very frequent basis (sometimes 4 times per day).

Description of problem:
On latest RHEL6.8 kernels (2.6.32-642.6.1), the `vboxnet[0-2]` network stop 'working' after just a few minutes when deploying the nodes.
No traffic can be seen by tcpdump'ing the adapters on either the Hypervisor or the nodes.
On the hypervisor (RHEL6.8 host), I attempt to capture network traffic like this:
{{{
# tcpdump -nevi vboxnet1
}}}
or
{{{
# tcpdump -nevi vboxnet2
}}}
On the undercloud node, I attempt to capture traffic like this:
{{{
# tcpdump -nevi eth1 (connected to vboxnet1)
}}}
or
{{{
# tcpdump -nevi eth2 (connected to vboxnet2)
}}}
At the begining of a deployment (PXE'ing the overcloud nodes), things start working properly but stop after just a few minutes.

Things were working properly with:
- VBox 5.0.26 + Kernel 2.6.32-642.3.1.el6.x86_64
- VBox 5.0.26 + Kernel 2.6.32-642.4.2.el6.x86_64
- VBox 5.1.6 + Kernel 2.6.32-642.4.2.el6.x86_64

I am also taking great care in making sure that the vbox kernel modules are freshly compiled on the running kernel by cleaning out the /lib/modules and forcing a rebuild (using DKMS on VBox 5.0 and using `vboxconfig` on VBox 5.1)

Things stop working after just a few minutes with:
- VBox 5.1.6 + Kernel 2.6.32-642.6.1.el6.x86_64 (the latest RHEL6.8 kernel).

I am currently trying to isolate the issue and see if I can provide more data.

Is there a way to put an hostonly network in debug mode?

Thanks,

When Virtualbox is the active window it ""steals"" the mouse movement when moving to the top of the screen and leaves the desktop in a bad state.

- It's happening after some time, usually after 2-3 days but last time it happens after 7 hours only.
- CPU usage of VBoxHeadless process on host jumps and stay at 100%, although there is no any load on the guest.
- Guest system continues to work but it cannot nor accept nor create new TCP connections (existing TCP connections, e.g. early opened ssh session, continues to work).
- Outgoing TCP connection from the guest (e.g. wget) fails with error code ""Network is unreachable"". This error code is a clear sign that ""bad thing happened"".
- DNS resolving on guest fails so it seems that UDP is affected too.
- PINGs from guest are working! So I consider that network, routing, etc is OK, and the bug is in NAT code.

After video mode changed, GUI windows is resized.
Then window output immediately moves to the top left corner (maybe because of tiled wm layout). The rest screen may be filled with the previously placed parts of video output of guest.
The second issue - size of video output. After resize there may be options (when guest addons are installed)
1. Video output it just ok 
2. Screen size bigger then actual window, so scrollbars are drawn. It is bigger exactly on the size of that scrollbars.
3. Screen height equals to the screen height of the smallest screen (when there are more than one display). Currently I face with this issue only with ubuntu as a guest.

 1. Using Kubuntu Trusty host, Create XP VM in ≤ 5.1.30. Seamless mode should work fine (see expected results below).
 2. Upgrade to 5.2.2. 
 3. Boot XP guest.
 4. Switch to seamless mode.

== EXPECTED RESULTS
 1. Guest desktop disappears.
 2. Host window decorations disappear.
 3. Space is drawn on the host desktop for the guest windows.
 4. Guest windows act like host windows, responding appropriate to movement, e.g.
 5. Guest windows appear normally.

== ACTUAL RESULTS
All of the above assumptions are correct except for the 5th one. The space is drawn, the windows act normally, there are no other decorations, but every guest window is a visual nightmare. See attached screenshot.

== NOTES
 * Host is Kubuntu Trusty running the 4.2.0-42-generic kernel and is fully up to date and restarted.
 * Tested with versions from the repos at download.virtualbox.org: 5.1.30-118389~Ubuntu~trusty and 5.2.2-119230~Ubuntu~trusty. In both cases, the expansion packs and guest additions were updated accordingly.
 * Guest video memory is maxed out.
 * Turning acceleration off, enabling both 2D/3D or one or the other had no effect.
 * Initially the guest was using multiple monitors. Disabling the virtual screen had no effect. Lowering the number of monitors to one had no effect, either.
 * Full screen, scaled, and normal modes all function appropriately.
 * VM has been running for years with no problems.
 * Logs are attached. You should see the switch to seamless at 0:00:48.457777.",Walter Lapchynski

* virtualbox-host-dkms-5.2.2-2

PUEL from VirtualBox-5.2.0-118431-Linux_amd64.run with Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-5.2.0.vbox-extpack

This is unexpected new behavior. The expected result is that following update, the headless client can be started and accessed as normal remotely via rdesktop and guest additions updated from within headless guest as has been the case with all prior 5.1.X updates. 

An update to 5.2 on the host will leave Win7 (and probably others) unable to access the headless guests remotely. There is no way to have the mouse or keyboard captured when first accessing a headless Win7 guest remotely after the 5.2 update on the host. The login screen is displayed and visible, but there is no way to interact with it -- with or without host-key use (currently the default rt-control)

When virtualbox is started on the host machine, prior guest additions are ignored and prior setvideomodehint resolution and color depths settings are ignored. The default capture host-key dialog is shown as if no prior guest additions are present.

If the incompatibility between 5.1.2X guest additions and 5.2 is a known issue, this should be clearly stated in the changelog as it impacts remote headless guest access that guest users cannot correct without access to the host machine.

Secondly, after 5.2 guest additions are installed from the host, and the guest and virtualbox shut down, the guest can then be restarted headless and access remotely. setvideomodehint on the host must be reset to restore 32bit display color depth for remote access. Video performance within the headless guest is degraded compared to 5.1.28 with lagging window moves within the Win7 guest and artifacts at the window corners on repaint that were not present in 5.1.28.

I recently updated to VirtualBox v5.2.0 RC1 to give it a try and see if my VMs could still work fine in it. I was well inspired, since I found a show-stopper bug (at least for my needs).
So, I installed VirtualBox v5.2.0 RC1, the v5.2.0 RC1 extension pack, booted my Windows XP guest VM in fail-safe mode, installed the VirtualBox guest additions (which, strangely, identify themselves as being v5.2.0 Beta 3 additions, instead of RC1...) with DirectX support.

Once the VM rebooted, when I start Poser 6 or 7 (the only two versions I got) on a Windows XP (32 bits) guest running on a 64 bits Linux host, the program hangs shortly after starting, on the startup screen, and Windows reports the program as ""non responding"" in its title bar. After a few more seconds waiting, the window of the program turns white and it stays stuck forever like that.

I then reinstalled the v5.1.28 guest additions (still keeping VirtualBox v5.2.0 RC1) and found out that Poser then works fine again.

I have a problem with the indiscriminately activation of caps-lock and/or ctrl while typing, moving the cursor or selecting text.

This symptom will happen if I use one key very long (selecting text...) . (Not often and not exact reproducible, but several times a day.)


'''Host is:'''
- Linux Mint 19 Tara / Cinnamon (freshly installed 8 Weeks ago)
- 2 different computers (physical identical and with similar installation) with the same problem!
- 16 GB Ram, i3 CPU
- ASRock H370M ITX ac / BIOS v3
- Onboard/CPU graphics
- Virtual Box 5.2.10


'''Guest is:'''
- Windows 7 (several installations (old converted computer and freshley installed also))
- Guest Additions are also installed
- USB Additions are also installed... but the issue was earlier as this installation

- no test with Linux as guest!


'''Annoying:'''
- text will be selected if virtualbox thinks that shift is pressed
OR
- the cursor jumps by word like the ctrl key is pressed

This can change in ""one session"" of this issue. (selecting ... jumping ... selecting)

 
'''
I'm able to ""solve"" the problem with:'''
continue with selecting text!  cursor right ..... cursor left ..... cursor up and down.... 
watching if text is selected (blue) while the cursor is moving the text.

No typing of Letters is possible, because every character is combinated with the ""virtual ctrl"" or the ""virtual shift"" key. Result: typing ""s"" is combinated with ctrl to: save my document... and so on.

Clicking with the mouse (on a existing document in task bar) will cause to open a very new document. I'm not able to get into an opened document with the mouse via taskbar. Every mouse-click will open an new instance of the program.



'''I can see ""this"" before the issue begins:'''
- If I move the cursor along the line the cursor has a certain speed. Very short time before the issue starts, the speed will reduce a little bit.

- While the issue is active the cursor has his regular speed.

short time before the issue ""ends"" (for an hour or two or 15 minutes) the speed of the cursor is reduced  to zero. Sometimes the issue has a continuation. Sometimes the issue ends and regular work is possible.

This can last up to 5 minutes!

The reboot of the guest is no real solution. Sometimes the issue takes part within 5 minutes.

The time itself is no factor: If I leave the computer for a while, the issue is still alive.
ONLY continuous run over the timer will solve the problem.


'''the keyboard''' 
is working fine in Linux! No ""virtual ctrl"" or ""virtual shift"" key.

After importing it into '''VBox 5.1.24''', just do the following steps:
1. create a snapshot to preserve the vdi for testing
2. start-up the VM, it will boot automatically to the desktop
3. click on the desktop to catch the mouse pointer
     do whatever you like, or even nothing
4. release mouse pointer (ctrl right)
5. close the VM and select ""save the VM""
   reboot host (this is just to simulate normal usage and makes sure the bug shows up if present)
6. start the VM again - it only takes a few seconds and with VBox 5.1.34 all is fine.

Try the same with VBox 5.1.36 or 5.2.10 and VM will crash for sure without any significant log entries for guest or host.

17791,Guest VM becomes unresponsive after 2 or 3 days continuous uptime,Windows,VirtualBox 5.2.12,2018-05-30T20:35:20Z,2018-09-04T18:09:22Z,2018-09-04T18:09:22Z,"Using CentOS 7.5.1804 host and Windows 7 guest with dual monitors full screen, USB mouse.

After the VM has been running continuously for about 2 or 3 days, the VM starts going into an abnormal wait state. The cursor can be moved with the mouse, but it changes from a pointer to a blue circle after clicking on something. At first, the ""wait state"" circle is short-lived, changing back to the normal pointer after less than a second. The problem gets worse over time and the cursor will begin to flash between normal pointer and blue circle a few times and then for longer and longer intervals. The longer I let it go, the more time it spends in the wait state. When the cursor is displayed as a blue circle, any button press on the mouse is ignored as well as key presses on the keyboard, although there was one time that I must have been clicking all over the place trying to get a response and on killing the VM, those clicks seemed to appear in the Linux host.

If I let the problem persist and don't reboot the VM, eventually the VM becomes completely unusable. The cursor stayed as a blue circle for over 30 minutes one time before I gave up and killed it. I have to reboot the VM to clear the problem and when I first started doing that, I would halt the VM and also reboot the Linux machine. More recently, I have only been shutting down the VM and restarting it. Earlier today, I shut down the VM and restarted, but noticed I was still having the problem. I shut the VM down again, exited the VB GUI console and made sure all VB processes were stopped, then started it back up. That cleared the problem.

When the guest system enters a wait state hang, CPU utilization on both host and guest still seem normal; no CPUs are pegged. When the guest seems to have entered a permanent wait state, it is still getting work done. I have had this happen when the Windows task manager was running and showing the CPU usage history. I had it set to slow updates, meaning it should update every 4 seconds but I was getting updates more like around 16 seconds.

I had been using the paravirtualized network driver and wondered if that could be a problem, so changed to the Intel PRO/1000 MT Desktop adapter with no change.

I first started having this problem in later versions of 5.0 on CentOS 6 and I had other problems with 5.1 so didn't run that for any appreciable amount of time. I have captured trace files of a hung VM if that could be useful to anyone.

I see similar reports on the forum about lost mouse clicks, and dual monitors may be one of the conditions required to reproduce.

I realize that you are really bizy  people I would be greatful if you could look in to this.
stepps to reproduce,
1.
launch orca the screen reader.
2.
launch virtualbox.
3 try navigateing up and down the list of vms and settings dylog boxes.
what should happen,
all catagorys should be announced when navigateing using arrow keys, the names of vms should be spoken currently this is not the case,

17854,Can't upgrade extension pack as normal user from GUI on Ubuntu 18.04 (due to missing gksu?),all,VirtualBox 5.2.14,2018-07-03T19:33:43Z,2018-07-03T19:33:43Z,2018-07-03T19:33:43Z,"On Ubuntu 18.04, it is no longer possible to upgrade the extension pack from the VirtualBox manager GUI when running as an unprivileged user.  This used to work under Ubuntu 17.10 and earlier versions (you were prompted for a password to gain root privileges).

After accepting the license, I get the following error message:

{{{

Failed to install the Extension Pack /home/nate/.config/VirtualBox/Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-5.2.14.vbox-extpack.

The installer failed with exit code 127: Error creating textual authentication agent: Error opening current controlling terminal for the process (`/dev/tty'): No such device or address.

Result Code: NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005)
Component: ExtPackManagerWrap
Interface: IExtPackManager {edba9d10-45d8-b440-1712-46ac0c9bc4c5}

}}}

I think the root cause of the error is that Ubuntu 18.04 no longer includes gksu (see [https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/umit/+bug/1740618 Ubuntu bug 1740618]).  Looking at the source to VBoxExtPackHelperApp, it tries to execute gksu to elevate privileges.  If that doesn't work it tries to run pkexec, which here doesn't work either, I guess because it doesn't have a tty to talk to.  The ""Error creating textual authentication agent"" message is apparently from pkexec.

A workaround is to install the extension pack manually with VBoxManage, or to run the VirtualBox GUI as root under sudo (but this is a bit annoying for me, because root has a different ~/.config/VirtualBox which points to a bunch of stale VMs and produces more warnings).  However, from the symptoms above, it would be hard for a new user to know to try this.

VirtualBox 5.2.14 installed from http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian.  The package file is virtualbox-5.2_5.2.14-123301~Ubuntu~bionic_amd64.deb.

I copied over my Windows 10 VirtualBox guest VM from the old system (Intel i7 8-core) to the new system. The Virtual Box guest boots without issue using the old settings (8-processors). However, if I shut down the VM and change the settings to a higher processor count (I have tried 12 and 14 cores), the VM does not progress very far into its boot: I see a blue background and the windows icon. None of the VirtualBox activity icons at the bottom of the Guest window are active: all dark. That is it. There is one Virtual Box process that continues to run at 100% cpu usage until I kill the VM.

Guests: Fedora 28 x2 + (2 older Fedora machines)

Both guests in this event are F28 & had a single snapshot + current state, and were up (but largely idle).

Deleted snapshot of first machine.  (Using VirtualBox GUI).  It took quite a while, as the snapshot was almost 2 yrs old.

While the delete was running, I had an ssh session into the VM.  I got an error ""Read only filesystem"", then ""ps not found"".  ls worked - for a while.

This typically means that the kernel got an unrecoverable Disk I/O error - e.g. a timeout.  But as the logs live on the disk in question, and it went read-only, I can't prove it.

shutdown was also not found.  I waited a while, and commands started getting bus errors.  Seemed clear that the disks were off-line.

So I waited for the disk merge (snapshot delete) to finish, did a vboxmanage reset, and rebooted the VM.

Log file will be attached.  Note that it also shows a lot of display resize events - I see no reason for this.  The VM was started detachable; the GUI is visible, but it seems to blink for no particular reason...

Here is an 'ls' of the VDI involved:
{{{
 ls -lih /home/root/VirtualBox_VMs/Overkiller/*.vdi /home/root/VirtualBox_VMs/Overkiller/*/*.vdi
12323679 -rw-------. 1 root root 1.6G Mar 20  2016 /home/root/VirtualBox_VMs/Overkiller/Fedora23_Overkiller.vdi

}}}

The I/O errors don't appear to be a one-off event.  I had a second VM which also had a single snapshot that I deleted the same way.  It suffered the same fate.  Log also attached.  Its ls:
{{{
ls -lih /home/root/VirtualBox_VMs/WikiWorld/*.vdi /home/root/VirtualBox_VMs/WikiWorld/*/*.vdi

Snapshot delete times were on the order of 30 minutes (each).

If deleting a snapshot on-line can cause this much havoc, it should not be allowed...

I am running VritualBox 5.2.18, host OS being Ubuntu 18.04 and guest being Mint 19. 

In Mint I have a riscv/rocket-chip environment setup in order to simulate behavior of a processor and observe its output waveforms, given the input in the form of c/assembly programs. Once I had installed the Mint OS I created a snapshot, and then again, once I had setup the environment, I created another snapshot and only then moved on to run different simulations.

The output waveform files do tend to get big, so my VDI is 110 GB fixed-size. Nevertheless, yesterday the simulation went on and on, and the output waveform file simply filled the whole VDI, completely. 

That I conclude from this is the message I get when I try turning the VM in its current state:


{{{
An error has occurred during virtual machine execution! The error details are shown below. You may try to correct the error and resume the virtual machine execution.

The I/O cache encountered an error while updating data in medium &quot;ahci-0-0&quot; (rc=VERR_DISK_FULL). Make sure there is enough free space on the disk and that the disk is working properly. Operation can be resumed afterwards.

Error ID: BLKCACHE_IOERR
Severity: Non-Fatal Error
}}}


So, ok - it makes sense: the file got to big, filled up the disk, the VM can't boot. Ok, no problem there. However, once I tried bringing back the snapshot (either one of them), I get:


{{{
Failed to restore the snapshot intenuser of the virtual machine rockettest.

Result Code: VBOX_E_FILE_ERROR (0x80BB0004)
}}}


And this, definitely, is not ok - it brings me into a terrible position, as it completely destroys the work on setting up everything.

I tried increasing size of the VDI, but for some reason - I am not allowed to type in the new size (image attached - 1).

VirtualBox does allow me to enter the new size for a snapshot (image attached - 2), but once I click Apply, that leads to a new error:


{{{

Last night I uninstalled VirtualBox 5.1.30 from my Xubuntu 16.04 x64 system, deleting all relative files and I did a brand new 5.2.2 installation from scratch. The new installation is facing two issues:

1. It doesn't use the system GTK theme whereas 5.1.30 did. All other GTK, QT4 and QT5 apps do use it, since the system is correctly configured for this.

2. Shared folder auto-mount doesn't work on Xubuntu 16.04 x64 guests whereas it works fine on Windows guests. On Xubuntu guests I have to mount it manually using ""mount -t vboxsf -o uid=1000,gid=1000 shareName /media/sfPublic"". This command mounts it correctly with read/write access.

Both VMs were using E1000 network adapters in bridged mode. Switching to either of the PCnet adapters fixed the issue on the ""not working"" system.

[Beware: User speculation] The not working system is slower and it looks like there was a recent change to the E1000 LinkUpDelay from 5000ms to 3000ms. I'm suspecting that the shortened delay may be related to the problem. I could not find a configuration setting for the LinkUpDelay.

IP 10.0.2.2 is NAT's gateway address, as you see, my Windows system send some ARP broadcast packet to find 10.0.2.2's MAC address, but not recive any response packet.

At the same time, in my host machine, the `NAT` process occupies a lot of CPU resources. I using `strace` command tracing `NAT` process:

I'm on openSUSE Tumbleweed.  When I use the '''5.2.20/All distributions''' bits, my desktop has a brain freeze.  I get the errors below.  Using the '''5.2.18/All distributions''' bits does not cause this issue.

When this happens, I cannot properly shutdown my machine.  I have to hit the power button.

I tried it twice.  The second time after a clean boot.

My workaround is to revert to '''5.2.18'''

The strange thing is my laptop is also running Tumbleweed and I had no issue going to 5.2.20.

Let me know what debug information I can provide.  I know this information is a bit .. sparse to act upon.  ;)  

Thx!

Issues that the second screen has only 1280x1024 instead of 1600 x1200

That was working before I run the machine today.I have not worked for month with the target.

An update to 5.2.22 was announced. I clicked it away. Then I got the small issue mentioned above. I decided to do the update. On the homepage 6.0 was announced instead of 5.2.22. So I downloaded the deb-File for 16.04. Ubuntu Software Center could not install it. Old version has been still installed at this time. But then followed the instructions on the page and downloaded and installed it by command line adding the repo for it.

After starting my Windows 10  machine, there was only two very small VGA screens left. After trying to reinstall the vboxguestadditions, there was only one screen left at least with 1280x1024 resultion.

There have been errors installing the guest additions they stuck installing some driver fro VBoxVideoW8 for a ""hardware that is currently not present"". Please see the log.

How can I rescue my windows copy. Because I think something was messed up during installation of VB 6.0 or the guest additions. I meanwhile deleted the vbox in /usr/share/virtualbox but after reinstallation error stays stable. I am not able to continue working on my projects
.

In the end I deinstalled 6.0 and get me a copy of 5.2.22.

Please help save my work, because last time it all worked perfectly!

18179,Error unclear when cloning and default vm folder is not available,all,VirtualBox 5.2.22,2018-12-12T09:56:10Z,2018-12-12T09:56:10Z,2018-12-12T09:56:10Z,"Hi, I think there should be a more readable error when you try to clone a vm and the default vm folder is not available (e.g. was an external drive, now unplugged). On 5.2.22 on Linux I only get a generic VBOX_E_IPRT_ERROR.

To reproduce:
- Configure the default vm folder to a new position
- Render the position unavailable (rename, remove, unplug)
- Create a linked clone of a vm
- A snapshot is created on the original vm
- Error VBOX_E_IPRT_ERROR appears

I think it should say that folder xyz is not available, would make troubleshooting faster.",ctrl

18822,VMs with name lengths greater than 64 characters abort on start when using Pulseaudio. Have root cause and fix option <Regression>,all,VirtualBox 5.2.26,2019-08-08T15:35:59Z,2019-08-08T15:35:59Z,2019-08-08T15:35:59Z,"If a VM has a name length greater than 64 characters, and is using Pulseaudio, it will abort on startup with ""VERR_CFGM_NOT_ENOUGH_SPACE"" being thrown.

The root cause is:
Inside ""src/VBox/Devices/Audio/DrvHostPulseAudio.cpp"", in ""struct DRVHOSTPULSEAUDIO"", there is ""char                  szStreamName[64];"".

This ""szStreamName"" only appears to be used by Pulseaudio for display purposes, such as when running ""pavucontrol"". The comments above ""szStreamName"" read:
     * The stream (base) name; needed for distinguishing
     *  streams in the PulseAudio mixer controls if multiple
     *  VMs are running at the same time. */

So, when ""int rc2 = CFGMR3QueryString(pCfg, ""StreamName"", pThis->szStreamName, sizeof(pThis->szStreamName));"" is called inside of the ""drvHostPulseAudioConstruct"" function in that file, ""CFGMR3QueryString"" throws the above error, as String.cb is greater than 64 characters.

I have a local patch which is a hacky solution and not good enough for you guys -- it checks if ""StreamName"" is passed in in each call to ""CFGMR3QueryString"", and then does the following if it is too long -- but I got it to work just fine by ellpisizing (""..."") at the middle of the string like so, creating a 64 character string like Pulseaudio requires, which shows up correctly in ""pavcontrol"":
     * First 30 chracters of the VM name
     * 3 chracters for ""...""
     * Last 30 chracters of the VM name
     * 1 byte for '\0'
This is 64 characters total. In my patch, I simply change the contents of String.psz and String.cb, which is probably not the correct way to do it.

I would strongly suggest ellipsizing in the middle like this, since the first 64 characters of multiple VM clones could easily be the same, usually the last few characters/words are what is different when there are many clones/different versions of a VM running.
Another option could be the number them, but ellipsizing is probably better for the user.

This limitation did not exist when using Ubuntu 18.04/16.04, so I have marked it as a regression. I looked at the latest 6.0 source code, and it looks like this bug will still be present there.

I have many VMs with long and descriptive names past 64 characters, and I know others do too, that is a very useful feature to tell them apart at a glance (especially when using many clones, where checking each description is not realistic).
Please fix this for us users who let our VM names get out of control! It really helps workflow to be able to use such long names.

I'm using a fairly ancient system (Slackware 14.2), but the following is a bug I encountered building VirtualBox, and a patch that enabled me to build it successfully.

While trying to compile, I encountered this error:

Sound worked just fine on a quick boot up in qemu. I was about to give up on VB when someone with the identical problem replied to the above thread reporting that reverting to 5.2.18 corrected it. Doing so corrected the issue for me also.

There are logs attached to the above-mentioned thread.  I was also emailing various logs and command output to someone for assistance so may have something else useful in history.

'''Hypervisor:''' Virtualbox 5.2.4 
'''Guest OS:''' Security Onion (Elastic) Beta 3, Kali 2017.3, and I feel confident in assuming all OS's would have the same issue and I can test others if needed.

'''Situation:''' This week I upgraded my home lab from older versions of the above software, all previously worked on my hardware without issue, but Bridge Mode Networking is now failing to connect to SOME online resource and has dropped packets when it does connect. However NAT Mode Networking allows access to all online resources without issue.

'''Guest Configuration:''' My SecurityOnion Guest VM has a Bridged Adapter connection on Network Adapter 1, giving it internal vm network and external network access / Network Adapter 2 is listening in promiscuous mode on my switch's Mirrored Port.

Upon installing the guest OS (SecOnion) I began having issues pulling updates from the ubuntu.com software repositories. This was odd because on my host machine Speedtest.net was saying I had a 60+mbps connection to my ISP and furthermore my host machine was able to access ubuntu.com and pull down the same repositories without issue, this is what led me to verifying that I can use NAT but not Bridged Mode. NAT does allow me to access all resources (and update the systme), but I need to use Bridge Mode for my lab.

What's REALLY odd is that even with Bridge mode in its limited capacity, it IS able to pull down Google.com, Wikipedia.com, even Reddit.com with little issue (It does seem like it doesn't fully resolve any of the webpages though -spinning tabs and whatnot). But it completely fails to access Ubuntu.com, Fedora.com, Amazon.com... It's just VERY odd behavior... and it only happens in the VM when using Bridged Mode.

This behavior is repeatable (unable to access ubuntu.com and others) and happens every time I've tried to build a VM on this newer software.

Please let me know if there is any additional information I can provide.

This leads to several consequences:
* Text is barely readable (glyphs simply can't be simply upscaled using whole-screen image scaling)
* The guest OS is presented a lower resolution than the host's monitor would be capable of, so even HiDPI-aware guest OSs have to run in super-ugly upscaled mode.

With updated kernel in SL7 (and I assume CentOS7 and RHEL7) 3.10.0-693.21.1.el7.x86_64 drivers (and tools on linux guest) no longer compile.
Looks like it is due to REPTOLINE kernel changes.

I can reboot in previous kernel as a workaround.

The actual partition numbers specified were 1,2,3 in my case.

This works fairly well, but there is one slight issue: The group ownership of the /dev files corresponding to the above mentioned partitions changes after I complete the VirtualBox session. The following sequence of shell commands and output should illustrate what happens:

{{{
[toralf@osl-97214 ~]$ ls -tlra /dev/sda[123]
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 1 Mar  7 14:54 /dev/sda1

Note that the first output represents the way everything looks after a reboot.

This is a bit annoying as it means I can't give a regular users access to the Windows installation via addition to group ""disk"". Or rather, I can, but there can only be one VirtualBox session after each boot, unless someone intervenes. I guess I can add users to ""root"", to, but I'm somehow less comfortable doing that.",toralf

Guest operating systems will not adapt to the resolution of the laptop screen (neither in terms of proportions, nor size). Guest additions are correctly installed.

All attempts to condition the behaviour of the VMs fail, and the desktop of the VMs appears small and surrounded by a black margin to the right and below.

I have (obviously) tried the File-Environment-Display settings, auto resize guest, VBoxManage setextradata, etc. but none of these works.

It is possible to increase the resolution a little, but this setting does not persist, and is never in line with the actual resolution. In the Win10 machine, the pointer is also misaligned, making it impossible to use.

I was able to reproduce the issue using the Microsoft-provided [https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/tools/vms/ ""IE8 on Win7 (x86)"" VM image] after installing the [http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsCheck.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=23&PFid=23&Level=4&Conn=3&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false Realtek AC'97 Audio Codecs] but was unable to reproduce it from terminal beeps using a Linux image.

18222,Problem with VBoxAutostart and possible workaround,all,VirtualBox 6.0.0,2018-12-22T10:39:26Z,2018-12-22T10:39:26Z,2018-12-22T10:39:26Z,"Hello,
in the last days I've discovered a problem which seems to be a bug in the virtualbox autostart service. Here follows the overview now:

How to reproduce?
Create several virtual machines and add them to the autostart of VirtualBox by following e.g. that guide (it doesn't matter which you choose) https://pgaskin.net/linux-tips/configuring-virtualbox-autostart/ . Now set also the ""autostop-type"" of all your autostart VMs to ""savestate"". If you reboot your system now, all VMs will crash and only the first VM will be automatically started, the rest stays off.

What is my system?
It could be reproduced using a fresh installed debian 9 and the virtualbox version 6-RC1 (installed by https://wiki.debian.org/VirtualBox).

What is the reason for that failure?
If you add more than two VMs to the autostart, the script ""vboxautostart-service.sh"" will start in the line
{{{
start_daemon `basename $user | sed -ne ""s/\(.*\).start/\1/p""` $binary $PARAMS > /dev/null 2>&1
}}}
multiple instances of VBoxAutostart - the second one will crash, because an other instace is already running. That causes a return of the exit code of 1 - the systemd envroiment (activated by that file /lib/systemd/system/vboxautostart-service.service) take that as a failure of the service and marks it as crashed too. If you now try to stop the service by hand or reboots the system systemd will (i guess) skip the stop part of the script, because the service is not running / crashed - regardless that a VM is running. That causes the system not to stop and wait for the VMs and let them crash.

How to fix?
Simply remove the ""--background""-flag from the parameter list of the start procedure.
{{{
PARAMS=""--background --start --config $VBOXAUTOSTART_CONFIG""
}}}
->
{{{
PARAMS=""--start --config $VBOXAUTOSTART_CONFIG""
}}}
Now the bootup maybe takes some more time, but all VMs are started correctly and also gets correctly shutdowned impliced by the ""autostop-type"" setting.

Thanks for reading this (short) report,

I knew that older versions of Vbox did not support it. I have been using VMware Player 12.1 for several years to achieve my requirement but that application is now too difficult for me to maintain through kernel changes and later versions of ""Player"" are no good to me for other reasons. So I went back to the latest VirtualBox and tried a couple of the graphics adapter settings and I have the Guest additions correctly installed etc.

The VM otherwise works fine and I can run ""dxdiag"" and see the spinning cube on the 3D tests so I know DirectX is working (well 8 & 9 are anyway - doesn't like 7). The ""repair"" option of the XNA installation program appears to work OK (installs DirectX 9.0c components) but the application wanting to use XNA will not start (it reports XNA is not fully supported).

The annoying thing is that the application I want to run is not a game and doesn't really need XNA for what it does but the program writers chose to use it anyway :-(

I used to use a Virtualbox for quite some time on a private system to emulate Windows 98 SE with Fifa98 RTWC [2].
That was going fine but somewhen throughout last year I list sound.
First I thought it would be my messing with the system, but whatever I did it did not return.
After a while I did full re-install my system back to the last perfectly working virtualbox version (and a new OS install of the older Ubuntu 16.04).

Then I used the upstream downloads [3] to essentially do a version bisect when it was broken and found it.
6.0.10 (known bad)
5.2_5.2.32-132073 - fail
5.2_5.2.28-130011 - fail

5.5.2_2.0-118431 - dkms error on install
5.1_5.1.38-122592 - ok (known good)

It is not that sound would be broken totally, e.g. windows startup sound works and playing wav files. But when starting the game sound fails (no error message). Back out of the game Windows sound works still.

I think this uses DX5 for sound, but I'm not sure.

I tried to replace the (virtual) sound card from soundblaster to AC97 but that didn't help either.

I wonder what debug data I could collect for you to get this understood and fixed at the head of 6.x series so that I can upgrade again?

19074,"VM Stuck in ""offline snapshotting"" state",Linux,VirtualBox 6.0.10,2019-11-08T19:05:39Z,2019-12-03T19:22:03Z,2019-12-03T19:22:03Z,"The active problem is that a VM is stuck in ""offline snapshotting"" state and I can't do anything with it.  I need a way to get it out of that state, hopefully without corrupting the VM along the way.

There is no relevant VM-specific log information.  Since it's an offline snapshot, the VM wasn't running at the time, so the most recent log ends with ""Machine state changed to 'PoweredOff'"".

There appears to be no relevant info in the ~/.config/VirtualBox log files either.  Just a bunch of messages about saving config files and the reaper running.

Here's how I got to where I am:
I'm working on a Perl+Curses TUI front-end for a headless !VirtualBox server. It uses the vboxwebsrv webservice via the `SOAP::Lite` package to interact with !VirtualBox. I am following the API documented in the latest SDK from Oracle (6.0.10).

When my scripts initiate a snapshot of a powered-off machine via `IMachine::takeSnapshot`, the VM then becomes stuck in ""offline snapshotting"" state (""stuck"" as in it's been in that state for over 2 months as of the time of this writing). This is what the script does:

1. Get an `ISession` object via `IWebSessionManager::getSessionObject`
2. Lock the session in Shared mode via `IMachine::lockMachine`
3. Get a mutable `IMachine` object with `ISession::getMachine`
4. Initiate the snapshot from the mutable `IMachine` object, getting an `IProgress` object, with `IMachine::takeSnapshot`
5. Start a modal window which periodically queries the `IProgress` interface for its status until `IProgress::complete` returns `true`

As I'm reviewing my code to write this, I note that it's possible that `ISession::unlockMachine` is being called before the `IProgres`s object reports success. Although the documentation implies that a session remains locked as long as it is busy even after a call to `ISession::unlockMachine`, I wonder if this may be causing !VirtualBox to do something bad resulting in the stuck ""offline snapshotting"" state.

* Host OS is Debian Buster 64-bit.
* Guest OS is Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit.
* VBoxHeadless --version gives 6.0.10r132072.

Version 6.0.8 seems to be working fine and I am now using it, having removed version 5.2.0 which i was using previously.[[BR]]

18806,Wrong GUI scaling on very large screen resolution ultrawidescreen triple monitors,all,VirtualBox 6.0.10,2019-08-02T23:41:59Z,2019-08-02T23:41:59Z,2019-08-02T23:41:59Z,"Hello,

I have a 3x1280x1024 screen.
I upgraded from 5.2.30 to 6.0.10 and now some part of the GUI are too large.

Prior to the upgrade, I could resize the main virtualbox window to 1280x1024 so that it fits one of my triple-monitors.
With 6.0.10, the main window can't be reduced horizontally to less than approximately 1600x1024. I think this is because the GUI elements are already collapsed to the non-overlapping minimum but they are still too large.

The guest window is too big too.
I used to set the guest screen to 1152x864 and I had space left around it.
Now with 6.0.10, the UI elements around the window are so big that it the same 1152x864 guest window is too tall for the screen and it even has to add (large) scrollbars to it.

The issue is prominent in the menus.
Also, the larger the monitor resolution, the more pixelated the guest preview.

If I set my screen resolution to a lower single monitor resolution (1280x1024) the issue is not present.
The issue is proportional to the wideness of the screen.
See the attached screenshots for comparison between different resolutions.

Host is Debian 8 Jessie 64bit.
Guest is irrelevant.

i was wondering that during installation the virtualbox packet it was shown ""6.0.10-132072~Ubuntu~bionic"", but i am on an debian environment at that moment

ok, so far so good... virtualbox starts as normal as i expected.[[BR]]

but when i create a new virtual machine and start it, i get an error message.

My understanding is that 6.0.10 now somehow manages to load libkdecore.so.5.14.8 which is from KDE4. (I'm not using KDE4, I just have some KDE programs installed.)

I tried the VBOXSvga driver with 3D support for the following guests :
- Windows VISTA
- Windows 7
- Windows 8

I notice a lot of bugs, like Skype displaying a black window and more importantly transparency bugs and flickering. If I disable 3D support Skype remains buggy but flickering disappears. Now if I revert to VBoxVGA w/ 3D support enabled all is fine.

- Intel Core i7 4790
- 32 GB RAM
- NVidia GeForce 2070 SUPER w/ driver 430.40

The behavior is observed when attaching a low-res 1920*1200 external display, but not when attaching a HiDPI 3840*2160 display. The behavior occurs both with the Debian-Package, and with the distribution-agnostic installation. I am not aware of any custom configuration on my system that might impact this.

Additional notes:
I have posted about this on the forums here: [https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=95297]. There are descriptions of similar behavior (may or may not be the same issue) here: [https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=92965]; and here: [https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=88116]. All of these are recent. I first observed this behavior after installing an update using apt, however I do not know which version I had before that, sorry.

Temporary workaround:
Virtualbox can be forcibly scaled up by setting QT_SCALE_FACTOR=2, however this cannot be set globally, as it will break all other Qt-based applications. Also when this bug is not triggered (b/c only low-res or HiDPI screens are attached) the extra scaling will make everything unusably big.

Is there any log files that I should post to help reproduce this?",Nuvanda
19497,Feture request: minimize the virtualbox machine window when the guest OS powers off its virtual screen,Linux,VirtualBox 6.0.14,2020-04-15T23:32:38Z,2020-04-16T01:53:18Z,2020-04-16T01:53:18Z,"Hello,

my guest ubuntu OS always keeps saying (in the background) that it's unable to lock screen while I have a virtualbox machine in the foreground. Well in a way that is a feature I understand, but also as it hinders security (host OS is not locking when there's no keyboard and no mouse activity and a virtualbox guest is in the foreground) it is an antifeature as well. As a solution which would make this a feature without any drawbacks I suggest you to minimize the guest OS window (or otherwise prevent it preventing the host OS to lock) when the guest OS blanks or powers off its virtual screen. Maybe you can add a configuration option for this as well, but maybe as until today there were no use to powering off/blanking the virtual screen this feature might be OK without any configuration option as well.

Thank you in advance.

I have experienced issues in the past with Shared Folders, but in the past it only seemed to affect the Guest systems. This issue is hard to troubleshoot since the Host system freezes, I can only resolve it by unplugging the power. I have tried using the SysRq keys to no avail. In troubleshooting the issue, I have stopped all other host applications except VirtualBox and disconnected the Shared folder. For a week, I did not experience any freezing of the host the system. If I connect the Shared Folder I will randomly experience a hard freeze in a couple of hours or a couple of days.

The host system has 16GB RAM and 4 cores. I am using 4GB and 2 cores for my Windows 10 1909 guest.

I do not know how to troubleshoot this any further since the Host system hard freezes, I do not get any indications of problems in any of the host logs.

19128,Kernel bug (vboxdr - VBoxNetFlt) - eth device unintentionally enters promiscuous mode,Linux,VirtualBox 6.0.14,2019-12-03T21:42:59Z,2019-12-04T06:44:26Z,2019-12-04T06:44:26Z,"Hello, 

When a natnetwork definied. For a while, after some reboots of VM, when VM just started Linux Kernel shows problems.
It is reproducabe: make a new natnetwork eg. like this:

{{{

$ VBoxManage natnetwork add --netname anyad \
--network ""192.168.15.0/24"" --enable --ipv6 on \
--port-forward-4 ""www:tcp:[]:10080:[192.168.15.10]:80"" \
--port-forward-4 ""ssh:tcp:[]:10022:[192.168.15.10]:22"" \
--port-forward-4 ""ssl:tcp:[]:10443:[192.168.15.10]:443"" \
--port-forward-6 ""www_ipv6:tcp:[]:10080:[192.168.15.10]:80"" \
--port-forward-6 ""ssh_ipv6:tcp:[]:10022:[192.168.15.10]:22"" \
--port-forward-6 ""ssl_ipv6:tcp:[]:10443:[192.168.15.10]:443
}}}
""


{{{
$ VBoxManage dhcpserver modify --ip 192.168.15.3 --netmask 255.255.255.0 \
--netname anyad --lowerip 192.168.15.10 --upperip 192.168.15.100
}}}


Then you select natnetwork definied above for VM. After some rebootings of VM there will be Kernel messages just when you start the affected VM like this:


{{{
[ 6693.723692] vboxdrv: 0000000000000000 VMMR0.r0
[ 6693.850079] vboxdrv: 0000000000000000 VBoxDDR0.r0
[ 6693.896097] VBoxNetFlt: attached to 'enp3s0' / xx:zz:xx:zz:xx:zz
[ 6693.901656] vboxdrv: 0000000000000000 VBoxEhciR0.r0
}}}

No need VM to start the guest OS totally, as soon as VM begun to run the Kernel messages sign.
When VM will be just stopped, Kernel message will be like this:
{{{

[ 6355.406993] device enp3s0 left promiscuous mode
[ 6356.691870] vboxnetflt: 0 out of 9668 packets were not sent (directed to host)

}}}

Temporary workaround:

{{{
$ VBoxManage natnetwork remove --netname anyad
$ VBoxManage dhcpserver remove --netname anyad
}}}

After re-make a new natnetwork with same option like above I wrote.

I need to use the old Windows Movie Maker and therefore I set up a Windows Vista machine.

Issue:
Movie Maker starts fine after some tinkering, but the guest OS crashes if anything is done with the timeline.

Things I did:
- Installed Windows Vista
- Installed all available updates (+ Firefox)
- Installed guest additions 6.0.14 multiple times with different settings, inside and outside of Safe Mode
- Added one shared directory

VM settings:
- 2 GB RAM
- 2 CPU cores
- 3D acceleration enabled
- 2D acceleration enabled
- VBoxSVGA
- 256 MB graphics memory


At first, Movie Maker did not start at all because it needs graphics acceleration. Also, it didn't start when I installed the Guest Additions with regular Direct3D support - dxdiag.exe reported that there was no Direct3D acceleration available.
Installing the Guest Additions with the experimental Aero (WDDM) support failed once in safe mode, but succeeded on the second try.
Movie Maker starts fine now, but as soon as an item is added to the media timeline or moved within it, the Guest OS freezes for a few seconds, then reboots.

Most notably I am not able to run anything as administrator.

This occurs when trying to run anything (not just the 7-Zip installer) as admin.

After upgrading I noticed that the screen reader gets muted for a while and starts speaking again. The problem happens suddenly and frequently. When it gets muted and I switch to the host window and go back to the guest, it starts speaking again and after some seconds (or minutes) the problem repeats.

I've already confirmed that the problem isn't related to the screen reader; its commands continue working even when it is muted and there are no logs showing a NVDA crash. Initially, I thought that the entire audio was being affected by the problem, but when I play a video (from Youtube, for example) in background and continue to use the screen reader, surprisingly the issue doesn't happen (after stopping the video the problem back to arise as before).

It looks like a recent kernel update (https://ubuntu.com/security/notices/USN-4916-1) involving some CVE fixes also backported the migration from `inode_change_ok` to `setattr_prepare`.
That migration has previously broken Guest Addition compilation at least a couple times for other distros (https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/17299, https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/18697).
There are some existing IFDEFs in `VBox/Additions/linux/sharedfolders/utils.c` related to those previous issues:
{{{
#if (RTLNX_VER_RANGE(3,16,39,  3,17,0)) || RTLNX_VER_MIN(4,9,0) || (RTLNX_VER_RANGE(4,1,37,  4,2,0))

18495,VirtualBox NAT alias option use-same-ports (--nataliasmode1=sameports) has no effect on Ubuntu 16.04 host OS,Linux,VirtualBox 6.0.4,2019-03-14T20:53:00Z,2019-03-14T20:53:00Z,2019-03-14T20:53:00Z,"== Steps to reproduce ==

    1. Create a VirtualBox VM as follows, accepting default values for anything not listed here:

        * Name: archlinux-2019.03.01-x86_64
        * Type: Linux
        * Version: Arch Linux (64-bit)

    2. Download archlinux-2019.03.01-x86_64.iso into the VM directory:

    {{{
cd 'VirtualBox VMs'/archlinux-2019.03.01-x86_64
curl -O http://mirrors.acm.wpi.edu/archlinux/iso/2019.03.01/archlinux-2019.03.01-x86_64.iso
    }}}

    3. Confirm the MD5 checksum. First, display the expected checksum:

    {{{
curl http://mirrors.acm.wpi.edu/archlinux/iso/2019.03.01/md5sums.txt
    }}}

    Verify on Linux:

    {{{
md5sum archlinux-2019.03.01-x86_64.iso
    }}}

    Verify on macOS:

    {{{
md5 archlinux-2019.03.01-x86_64.iso
    }}}

    4. Start the VM in VirtualBox, click '''Choose a virtual optical disk file''' (represented by a folder icon with an upward-pointing green arrow), and select the archlinux-2019.03.01-x86_64.iso file downloaded in Step 2.

    5. Boot the VM, selecting default options for everything.

    6. On the host (64-bit Ubuntu Xenial Xerus 16.04.6 LTS), find two unused privileged (port number less than 1024) ports; for example, the following command will return nothing if both ports 1022 and 1023 are free:

    {{{
netstat -Wa | grep -E '1022|1023'
    }}}

    7. On the guest (64-bit Arch Linux 2019.03.01), confirm that the first free port from Step 6 is also free on the guest:

    {{{
netstat -Wa | grep 1022
    }}}

    If this  command returns any output, repeat Steps 6 and 7 until you have found two free ports.

    8. On the host (64-bit Ubuntu Xenial Xerus 16.04.6 LTS), start listening on the second free port, the receiving port:

    {{{
sudo nc -l 1023
    }}}

    9. On the guest (64-bit Arch Linux 2019.03.01), open a connection to the receiving port on the host, originating the connection from the first free port, the sending port:

    {{{
nc -p 1022 ala-michaelk-lx1.corp.ad.wrs.com 1023
    }}}

    Replace `ala-michaelk-lx1.corp.ad.wrs.com` with the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the host, as returned by the `hostname -f` command.

    After running both `nc` commands, any text entered on the guest should appear on the host and vice versa.

    10. In another shell on host, look for connections to the receiving port:

    {{{
netstat -W | grep 1023
    }}}

    Initially observe that network address translation (NAT) has replaced the sending port (1022) with a random port (48946), as expected for `--nataliasmode1=default`:

    {{{
$ netstat -W | grep 1023
tcp        0      0 ala-michaelk-lx1.corp.ad.wrs.com:1023 ala-michaelk-lx1.corp.ad.wrs.com:48946 ESTABLISHED
tcp        0      0 ala-michaelk-lx1.corp.ad.wrs.com:48946 ala-michaelk-lx1.corp.ad.wrs.com:1023 ESTABLISHED
    }}}

    11. On the host (64-bit Ubuntu Xenial Xerus 16.04.6 LTS), close the connection by pressing Ctrl-D (EOF) in the shell running `nc`.

    12. Close the guest console window, select '''Save the machine state''', and click '''OK'''.

    13. On host, switch the VM to `--nataliasmode1=sameports`:

    {{{
VBoxManage modifyvm archlinux-2019.03.01-x86_64 --nataliasmode1=sameports
    }}}

    14. In VirtualBox, click '''Start''' to restore the VM.

    15. Repeat Steps 8–11.

== Expected ==

The port number for the sending port (1022) is preserved, as seen on host macOS Mojave Version 10.14.3:

{{{
inu:~ michael$ netstat -W | grep 1023
tcp4       0      0  inu.corp.ad.wrs.com.1023  inu.corp.ad.wrs.com.1022  ESTABLISHED
tcp4       0      0  inu.corp.ad.wrs.com.exp2  inu.corp.ad.wrs.com.1023  ESTABLISHED
}}}

== Observed ==

The port number for the sending port (1022) is replaced with a random port number, as seen on host 64-bit Ubuntu Xenial Xerus 16.04.6 LTS:

{{{
$ netstat -W | grep 1023
tcp        0      0 ala-michaelk-lx1.corp.ad.wrs.com:48972 ala-michaelk-lx1.corp.ad.wrs.com:1023 ESTABLISHED
tcp        0      0 ala-michaelk-lx1.corp.ad.wrs.com:1023 ala-michaelk-lx1.corp.ad.wrs.com:48972 ESTABLISHED
}}}

and then I started Win10 : just a black screen appeared, nothing else.
I could nor stop it, neither kill it from a terminal. Then I even had my Linux host to force to stop with the power button, too.

TESTS
1. After a new Linux host start I started Vbox again (now without any modification) and then Win7 guest. Same result as above.

2. I deleted completely VirtualBox 5.2.24 with all its files, even the VM-s from my laptop, (they were exported not long ago to an external drive). Then I installed VirtualBox 6.0.4 and its Extension Pack, and imported my 2 Windows VMs. They both worked fine again. I installed the apropriate GuestAdditions in both. Still ok. I could work with them well. 
Then I added myself to the vboxusers, rebooted Linux and started VirtualBox again. I set a new USB filter for Win10 and started it. Black screen again which could not be killed, and Linux could not be stopped. 

3. After a new start I tested my Win7 guest as well, neither works it any more. Black screen, stuck, Lx can't be stopped.

I think some Vbox configuration goes bad... I use Vbox since many years, and I do not rememeber similar problem. In a formerly Vbox version I could set USB filters, however I do not remeber the version number unfortunately. Anyhow, I appreciate Vbox very much, it is an excellent work.

I've been having major graphics issues lately, especially when I turn on VBoxSVGA, which I use with 2D and 3D acceleration enabled.

Just now after experiencing some weird issue's I'll go into in a bit and trying to reboot my machine, I got a message box telling me VirtualBox had to abort and to submit a ticket. 

I'm attaching a log file for the ticket, as well as the VM Guest configuration file. As far as I know, everything is up to date and configured correctly.

I'm also attaching the output of lspci (for my host's graphics card) and a partial dump of dmesg as there are some warnings from VB kernel modules.

Some background:
Basically, everything seems to be working intermittently graphics-wise. All the issues seem to be occurring due to crashes inside C:\WINDOWS\system32\VBoxSVGA.dll, including frequent windows in Desktop Window Manager (dwm.exe). 

Additionally, sometimes I am getting the error ""Display driver failed to start; using Microsoft Basic Display Driver instead. Check Windows Update for a newer display driver."". When this happens I have no choice but to restart because the guest's screen becomes totally black with a working cursor and a blurred version of the VB bios screen overlayed in white. There is no way to resolve this without a reboot.

When things get really bad, pretty much all apps refuse to launch (though the ones already launch still work) and they fail silently (this is really ironic and frustrating as this includes debugging apps), though for each attempt I see an error relating to VBoxSVGA.dll in the Windows Error Log. I am attaching several days worth of Windows Error Logs (Application Logs) in XML format in the hopes they contain some information. I'm also attaching an HTML export of the Windows Error Reports that were generated. (Unfortunately I didn't have saving minidumps enabled at the time.)

When this whole ""nothing will start"" phenomenon occurs a program that I'm frequently trying to use -- a 3D modeling program called Autodesk Fusion 360 -- actually freaks out because it will keep trying to restart a Chrome WebView process ad infinitum (obviously the ad infinitum bit isn't on VirtualBox). I've included a stack trace from a minidump of one of these crashes as it's one of the few minidumps I have. (I can't attach the minidump itself as the memory contains proprietary content.) 

If anyone could offer any help, it would be greatly appreciated. I'm happy to assist with debugging this in any way I can.

I have tested all supported Ubuntu versions listed in UM2563 when installed as a VirtualBox guest
and STM32CubeIDE is installed in the guest operating system (Ubuntu 14.04, 16.04, 18.04).
Also Linux Mint Mate 19.1 and 19 are tested with similar results as VirtualBox guests.

VirtualBox versions is:

VirtualBox 6.0

Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack 6.0.8r130620 is installed in Oracle VM VirtualBox Manager.

THE ISSUE IS:
============

Only an unmodified code generated as a STM32Project.
All have the same behaviour where installation and compilation succeed but GDB start-up fails with the message:

For example to update the EPEL6 repository. I cd into a directory on the Shared Folder and use the command, reposync -n -d -r epel6. Since 6.0.6 this causes errors. To test it I tried a created a new directory and here is a sample output from one of the first attempted download:

The video starts with Ubuntu 18.04 as guest in VirtualBox, controlled by rdesktop.

While mouse integration is active in VirtualBox, even if the actual mouse is controlling rdesktop, there is no mouse pointer rendered in the VirtualBox Ubuntu LiveCD guest.

If I turn off mouse integration in VirtualBox, then: when we have the actual host mouse pointer controlling via rdesktop - a mouse pointer appears rendered in the VirtualBox Ubuntu LiveCD guest. So this looks promising.

But if I do a Recording video capture in VirtualBox in this state - there is still no mouse pointer in the video recording, even if the host mouse was controlling via rdesktop, and the VirtualBox Ubuntu LiveCD appeared to be rendering the mouse pointer's ""clone""!

I graphed it out over a day or so, and I could see that it was constantly increasing whenever I was using the VM, but remained stable otherwise (graph attached).  It never went down.

I've attached a small screenshot video (for whatever reason, it seems gnome screenshot didn't actually capture the cursor... but you can see the link highlighting and the cursors value constantly increasing).

I would note it happens only the cursor switch when *not* in capture mode (i.e., turn off mouse integration and you can switch the cursor as much as you like and it never increases on the host).  Maybe for someone skilled in the art that could help pinpoint which library this is related to?

I am currently running 6.0.8 on Fedora 30, but as mentioned it has been happening before that and the original bug was in the 5.1 series.

I've filed https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1713162 too

It seems like there's a memory leak in VirtualBox 6.0.8.

I'm running with a Linux host (Ubuntu 16.04) and a single Linux guest (Ubuntu 16.04) in headless mode, being accessed by another machine on the network via Virtualbox's RDP server.

What I see is that the ""VBoxHeadless"" process consumes more and more memory as time goes on, at a rate of about 100 MiB every few minutes. This continues indefinitely until the system runs out of memory.

The only thing running on the guest is an instance of Firefox with some web-based FB game.

I've attached the log and vbox file. Please let me know if there's anything else needed.

As of now, the system is up and running, consuming more and more memory.

Host : Ubuntu 16.04 x64
Guest : Windows 7 x64
Shared folder (on ext4 partition) between host and guest

I'm using a Windows 7 virtual machine only for Adobe Photoshop CS6 x64.

Before v6.0.8 I installed v6.0.6 only briefly, I had to revert back to 6.0.4 because of the mouse integration bug. So I for the present issue I installed 6.0.8 over 6.0.4.

I encountered a strange behaviour with the shared folder I'm using to exchange files between the host and the guest. 
In Photoshop CS6 x64, after I installed VirtualBox v6.0.8, sometimes Photoshop tells me it couldn't read the TIFF files I had worked on before. And when it could, sometimes the content was scrambled.
I checked my images in other software (under Windows ''and'' Ubuntu) : correct.
I opened the files in the VM with Photoshop CS6 x32 this time : correct.
I checked my TIFF files with an utility called jHove, which checks the TIF file integrity : no errors.
So my image files are without flaws. I can save them in Photoshop but not read them back, at least in the x64 version. Weird.
I also copied the files directly on the guest : this time Photoshop CS6 x64 was happy.

For 2 days I have tested many things. It only occurs in Photoshop CS6 x64, when I'm using the shared folder.

So I decided to revert back to VirtualBox v6.0.4, and dang! Photoshop CS6 x64 was happy again with my files...

So my conclusion is the problem comes from the shared folder functions, but only when reading my files, not when I'm writing.

Guest Additions: version=6.1.13-139990

Blue Screen is triggered each time User Account Control Activated to allow changes to windows.

This problem seems to be triggered by Windows 7 User Account Control (UAC). I can't even install simple updates to PuTTY, etc. without 6.1 causing a BLUE screen and reboot. This is triggered any time you are prompted to allow a change to your computer with UAC. The UAC dialog is displayed and the remainder of the screen is darkened. After choosing ""Yes"" to allow the change, the darken background is not removed from any open windows and about 5 seconds later BLUE SCREEN, and the Virtualbox 6.1 reboot screen is shown. 

This will occur if you simply attempt to start the command prompt with ""Run As Administrator"". I have 3 Minidumps collected if needed and the Event Viewer reports the critical error as ""Kernel Power"" (which doesn't look very useful)

As a test, I disabled UAC completely and attempted the updates to PuTTY again. With UAC disable, there is no problem. I can update software as normal without the Blue Screen on 6.1. So the bug in 6.1 causing the BLUE SCREEN crash is triggered any time elevated privileges are needed and UAC is activated. 

I have run this same VM for 5+ years and never had any problem with the 5.1 or 5.2 Virtualbox branches. There is something new in 6.1 that triggers a crash when Windows UAC is activated. 

Let me know if the Minidumps will be of any use or if there is other documentation I can provide and I'm happy to attach them.

In my use case I'd like to create an USB filter limited to a specific physical USB port.

For that it would be necessary to have a USB filter which can refer to a unique ""port"", which the current implementation can not guarantee.[[BR]]

As you can see in the example above, both USB ports have ""Port: 1"" and thus they are not uniquely identifyable. So it would be more useful to instead refer the ""Port"" field to ""3-2"" for the first entry, and to ""2-2"" in the second entry (see the ""Address"" field).

2. Reboot the VM.
3. Switch to full screen mode with Host+F.

However, after the install is complete, vbox correctly boots to the grub menu the installation media installed.

A problem arises, however, if I insert any arbitrary CD into the cdrom device.  Any attempt to boot off the CD requires navigating the UI again, and in most cases, requires booting from the EFI shell no matter what combination of options I select (such as deleting all but the Cdrom from the boot options and even changing the boot order).  There does not seem to be any way to get vbox to boot off the hard drive after a cd has been inserted and removed.

This behavior appears to be consistent across 32 and 64 bit EFI VMs.

Steps to reproduce:

* Create new EFI VM
* launch installer CD (most likely from EFI Shell, since vbox won't launch the CD automatically)
* complete the install and reboot from hard drive
* insert any CD into the drive
* attempt reboot
* remove the CD from the drive

20000,Linux guests lock up with Host I/O cache disabled (NVMe and SATA),Linux,VirtualBox 6.1.14,2020-10-26T15:57:22Z,2021-02-23T21:37:44Z,2021-02-23T21:37:44Z,"I have been finding that Linux guests seem to lock up when Host I/O cache is disabled when disks are under load (for example when installing system updates). dmesg also shows disk timeouts, and it seems no further disk operations succeed after this point without killing the VM process and restarting.

A log is attached. I'm not sure how to reproduce this reliably, but it seems to happen when I'm installing updates. I have seen this with both Ubuntu and Fedora guests. I will also upload a screenshot shortly with the exact messages, but I seem to have misplaced it for the moment.

20204,"My VBoxManage-code, runned on the host, can not bring a ""windows guest registry value"" into my guestproperty",Windows,VirtualBox 6.1.14,2021-02-18T22:12:24Z,2021-02-18T22:12:24Z,2021-02-18T22:12:24Z,"I try to get a registry value of the guest with a command that runs in the host. But this does not work.

To get a better idea of the problem, I have checked parts of my code separately.

First I have tested the command in the windows guest.
Result: It works.

Here is the command:
I go into my Windows 7 guest. I open the cmd-window. I type in the cmd-window the following inclusive <""> .

{{{
""%SystemRoot%\system32\cmd.exe"" -- 'cmd' /c start ""run this"" For /F ""EOL=H Tokens=2,*"" %G In ('""""%SystemRoot%\System32\reg.exe"" Query ""HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.docx\UserChoice"" /V ""ProgId"" 2> NUL""') Do @""D:\NT3x\VBoxControl.exe"" --nologo guestproperty set /myproperties/myproperty ""%H""
}}}

To be sure, that it has worked, I go back to my Linux host and type in a terminal the following:

{{{
VBoxManage guestproperty get ""MyWin7Guest"" /myproperties/myproperty
}}}
 Output:

{{{
Value: Word.Document.12
}}}

After, I now change the guestproperty (so that I can use it later again) with the command:

{{{
VBoxManage guestproperty set ""MyWin7Guest"" /myproperties/myproperty ""deleted""
}}}

Now I create a variable of the code above, (but not of the whole one, please compare them) because I need it later.
I do this in a linux terminal in my Linux host:

{{{
q='For /F ""EOL=H Tokens=2,*"" %G In ('
w=""'""
e='""""%SystemRoot%\System32\reg.exe"" Query ""HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.docx\UserChoice"" /V ""ProgId"" 2> NUL""'
r=""'""
t=') Do @""D:\NT3x\VBoxControl.exe"" --nologo guestproperty set /myproperties/myproperty ""%H""'
p=$q$w$e$r$t
}}}
So I have the code above in $p. I need this later:

{{{
$ echo $p
For /F ""EOL=H Tokens=2,*"" %G In ('""""%SystemRoot%\System32\reg.exe"" Query ""HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.docx\UserChoice"" /V ""ProgId"" 2> NUL""') Do @""D:\NT3x\VBoxControl.exe"" --nologo guestproperty set /myproperties/myproperty ""%H""
}}}



As the code has worked in my guest-system, I can now go one step further. I'll put the following code in front of it:

{{{
VBoxManage guestcontrol ""MyWin7Guest"" start --username XX  --password YY --exe
}}}

So that I have now the following whole code:

{{{
VBoxManage guestcontrol ""MyWin7Guest"" start --username XX  --password YY --exe ""%SystemRoot%\system32\cmd.exe"" -- 'cmd' /c start ""run this"" $p
}}}


I type this code into a terminal in my Linux host. Done.
What is the output? No output. No error. It looks like this if the code had been executed correctly.

To be sure, that it has worked, I type in my Linux terminal the following:

{{{
VBoxManage guestproperty get ""MyWin7Guest"" /myproperties/myproperty
}}}

Here is the result:

{{{
$ VBoxManage guestproperty get ""Win7NeuFurOfficeVersuch"" /myproperties/myproperty
Value: deleted
}}}

So: Why does this not work? Is this a VirtualBox error?

19890,Guest Windows Slowly Shrink Vertically to 103 pixels  and Jump Around on Resize,all,VirtualBox 6.1.14,2020-09-15T16:29:16Z,2020-11-16T19:02:58Z,2020-11-16T19:02:58Z,"Hi,

I started a thread on the Community Forums on this on Sept 3rd, and despite some excellent questions from Volunteer fth0 in Germany, I think it's time for a bug report.

The trail on community is at [https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=99659].  It includes a small video of the shrinking guest windows, plus a bunch of Log files.

----
'''SUMMARY'''

I just upgraded to V 6.1.12 r139181 and I'm seeing some very odd behavior in guest windows. A subsequent upgrade to Version 6.1.14 r140239 (Qt5.14.2), including the extpack and Guest Additions, has not changed anything.

'''DETAILS'''

Guest windows jump around randomly at irregular times, and guest windows slowly shrink vertically '''unless maximized''' after a resize. Over a period of 15 - 20 minutes, a guest windows shrinks, vertically only, until it's 103 pixels in height.  It seems to shrink 1 or 2 pixels at a rate that appears dependent on the host machine's loading, but often around every 1 or 2 seconds.  This makes it impossible to do much with the guest OS, because any menu picks get removed by the window redraw before an option can be chosen.

Horizontal size seems to be irrelevant.  Scale factor in Display Setting for all guests is 100%.

If I resize a guest window, it will jump elsewhere randomly - often to another screen or straddling two monitors, and then start shrinking.


This happens on both Windows and Linux guests, with VBoxVGA and VBoxSVGA graphics controllers. It has only started since the update to the 6.1.12 and 6.1.14 versions...all was fine before that.

The host machine is an 8 physical core (16 virtual) AMD Ryzen 7 2700X PowerSpec G162 with an AMD Radeon RX580 GPU, with 48G RAM and 15Tb Storage so it can handle the VBox load.
The machine is running KDE Neon 5.19.4, which is KDE's own distro, based on Plasma 5.19.4 and the 5.14.2 Kernel. I have compositing switched on for full KDE effects.
I have 3 4k Monitors, although I don't think that's relevant.

The Log files contain large numbers of repeats of these lines, with the X size reducing by 1 or 2 pixels each time, until 103 is reached.

At fth0's suggestions, I tried setting extradata to various initial window sizes, to see if that affected the shrinking behaviour, but it hasn't made much difference.

The failure occurs very early in the start sequence: the big ""starting arrow"" remains shown and the system freezes all over. A hard restart is required.[[BR]]

From the VBox.log's it seems that the Slackware problem is:

{{{
GUI: UIDesktopWidgetWatchdog::sltHandleHostScreenAvailableGeometryCalculated:[[BR]]

{{{

 Screen 0 work area is actually resized to: 0x25 x 1920x1150
}}}


Note the ""0x0"" versus ""0x25"".[[BR]]

As via symlinks the VB settings and VM definitions are shared between the sundry Linux instances an error like a ""leftover"" file definition is highly unlikely.[[BR]]

Some other differences beween the VBox.logs are:[[BR]]
-- Xubuntu kernel 5.4.0-48-generic, Slackware 5.8.14-burdi64;[[BR]]
-- Xubuntu VB QT version 5.12.6, Slackware 5.6.1;[[BR]]
-- Xubuntu X release 12008000, Slackware 12009000;[[BR]]
-- Xubuntu loads a VMMR0.so, Slackware does not.[[BR]]

I started out with VB 6.1.14-140239. For Slackware I then tested VB testbuild 6.1.15-6.1.15-140809 asis with kernel 5.8.14-burdi64 and the same testbuild but patched (see #19845) with kernel 5.9.0-rc8-burdi64.[[BR]]

I'm using the latest VirtualBox version under Kubuntu 18.04 LTS. I'm having errors when testing a software I've made in a VM running the same OS, but it makes no difference on other VMs running other Linux distributions. However, my software doesn't have issues when it is running on my native machine, no VMs involved. I even tested this on a different machine, and no issues whatsoever even after a few hours.

The history here is that this software controls a USB switcher, monitoring it continuously, ever 200ms (but that can be changed in the options). The USB switcher itself is based on the CP2130 from Silicon Labs. The software has all the kinks ironed, but it fails on a VirtualBox VM, which should not happen. This also happens, seemingly, irregardless of the version of VBox I have installed. I've recently updated to the latest version from the VirtualBox repository, but saw no differences. In fact, I've seen it fail catastrophically and even causing the device to reset (the software forces a reset if more than 10 errors occur) quite rapidly. More frequently, errors are due to lost control transfers, but can happen with bulk transfers as well.

To sort this out, I've decided to run traces with Wireshark, simultaneoulsy inside and outside the VM, monitoring the same connections essentially. I can conclude that there were some lost packets because I've seen errors reporting inside the VM pertaining to packets that simply were not matched to any packets caught outside the VM, which might mean that the request packet never went outside the VM to the USB host, and due to timeout, it generated a ENOENT response inside the VM, but not outside. I must add that responses that exceed 100ms are ruled out the the application.

I have the images proving the issue, the screenshots highlighting some of the packets and the traces taken inside and outside the VM.

This has been requested by forum users a few times in several forums. Mentioned 2010 ticket is just one user case. But this usage fails, as seen in log attached.
There seems to be an unjustified regression in the code, in `vbox-img.cpp`:797. The following line of code was withdrawn at changeset 33235 with commit message ""Storage/vbox-img: implement stdout handling"".

     {{{ AssertFailedReturn(VERR_NOT_SUPPORTED); }}}

However for some reason this line has been reintroduced later on.
I tested a custom build of vbox-img with the attached patch and the requested stdout handling worked well. Attached proposed patch against 6.1.14a code.
Alternatively, if this capability is still immature, revise the `--help` output and reopen #6650

Problem is that Linux kernel DOES MAKE USE of XMM registers, too. Examples include aes-ni kernel module (AES-NI instructions implicitly use XMM0..15) or RAID, respectively).
VMM at ring 0 only implements XMM wrappers for Windows/64bit and does not have conditionals to abort build if VBOX_WITH_KERNEL_USING_XMM is set in src/VBox/VMM/Makefile.kmk for linux.amd64. This yields a kernel panic because Microsoft ABI is completely different from System V ABI (aka gcc ABI).
The 6.1.18 trunk seems to rely on a complete rewrite of src/VBox/VMM/VMMR0/HMR0A.asm but 6.1.13 / 6.1.16 (6.0 also) still have this problem.

'''Solution is:'''

a) Add VBOX_WITH_KERNEL_USING_XMM to src/VBox/VMM/Makefile.kmk for linux.amd64


b) Provide conditional implementation in src/VBox/VMM/VMMR0/HMR0A.asm for gcc/amd64 expecting function parameters in System V ABI registers rdi, rsi, rdx, rcx, r8, and r9. The two wrappers hmR0VMXStartVMWrapXMM and hmR0SVMRunWrapXMM need this.


c) calling CPUMIsGuestFPUStateActive from yasm assembler to C++ requires suffix ""wrt ..plt""

I have patches for this but optimized only for ""my"" Intel CPU. VBox users either have to switch to 6.1.18 or apply the above mentioned modifications.

'''Recommendation:'''

VBOX maintainers should think about making VBOX_WITH_KERNEL_USING_XMM the default for Linux, too (because of possible AES-NI or RAID usage, respectively).",vboxcomapijunkie

20106,AC97 possible regression in rev 76862,other,VirtualBox 6.1.16,2020-12-29T10:56:52Z,2021-01-25T12:25:45Z,2021-01-25T12:25:45Z,"I'm investigating why ac97 driver (https://github.com/deadw00d/AROS/tree/alt-abiv0/workbench/devs/AHI/Drivers/ac97) that we created stopped working with VBox. The driver continues working with real hardware and QEMU. After debugging and analysing VBox code I think a regression was introduced in rev 76862 by deleting the ichac97R3StreamFetchBDLE(pThis, pStream); call when setting up LVI register.

What happens now is that CIV register is advanced, but the PICB register is not refreshed (refresh is done ichac97R3StreamFetchBDLE(pThis, pStream)). What then happens is when ichac97R3StreamTransfer() is called, the cbLeft is zero so the whole logic of this function is skipped. The ""hardware"" hangs in mode where DMA is saying its active, Bus Master is enabled but nothing is tranfered. The only way to kick the ""hardware"" again is to set the CR register where the code again advanced the CIV but then calls ichac97R3StreamFetchBDLE() to update PICB. This way however a previous buffer is lost.

There are two places I see possible to change:
- restore the call to ichac97R3StreamFetchBDLE when setting LVI and advancing CIV
- allow ichac97R3StreamTransfer to operate with *initial* empty PICB just like the code in the look (when it sees empty PICB it continues to next buffer)",deadwood

PS:
It seems like a common occurrence, first a new kernel is released, packaged and distributed to update repos, we update and discover that its not working, then wait 3-4 months for a new virtualbox. Maybe it would be possible to test future kernels earlier?

20147,Problems when masquerade is enabled on host,Linux,VirtualBox 6.1.16,2021-01-22T19:27:56Z,2021-01-22T19:27:56Z,2021-01-22T19:27:56Z,"Steps to reproduce issue:

1. Configure host linux with firewalld  + enable masquerade on public zone (or configuration alike with iptables or nftables by hand)
2. Test access to both http and https on guest side
3. Disable masquerade on host and repeat 2

If netfilter masquerading is enabled on host, and guest is in bridge modem, both http and https don't work.

For example:

{{{

curl -I http://www.virtualbox.org
curl: (56) Recv failure: Connection reset by peer
root@techier-glossa:~# curl -I https://www.virtualbox.org
curl: (35) OpenSSL SSL_connect: Connection reset by peer in connection to www.virtualbox.org:443
}}}


If I disable netfilter masquerading, it works.

In bridge mode it should not concern at all if host is doing that.

This the configuration of firewalld:

[root@munster ~]# firewall-cmd --zone=lxc --list-all

Compilation of modules located in /usr/src/vboxhost-6.1.16 fail during the install stage.
It is the vboxpci driver.

I checked its content and it seems there has been some cleaning there (all Makefile*) files, etc.

I have managed to bypass that failure to install and all other drivers get installed
(I just renamed the vboxpci to vboxpci.del in order to be bypassed).

I can run VirtualBox but then (my guess is that) VT-d, for the guest machines, cannot be enabled.

20021,AMD Ryzen 9 3900XT - Slackware Current64 - kernel 5.9.3-burdi64 - VM's fail to start,Linux,VirtualBox 6.1.16,2020-11-05T16:24:25Z,2020-11-05T16:24:25Z,2020-11-05T16:24:25Z,"Some weeks ago my multi-boot Intel i7-6700 system died on me. From backups I was able to clone things on the AMD Ryzen 9 3900XT replacement. Since then when VB is started under Slackware Current64 all VM's fail to start, whereas when VB is started under Xubuntu 20.04.1 these VM's start as expected.

The failure occurs very early in the start sequence: the big ""starting arrow"" remains shown and the system freezes all over. Sometimes I can start another user session via <Alt+Fx>. Very often a hard restart is required.
The Slackware instance initially ran my own kernel 5.8.14-burdi64, the Xubuntu one kernel 5.4.0-48-generic. During the testing these kernels were upped. At the moment they are 5.9.3-burdi64 and 5.4.0-52-generic respectively. The symptoms however stayed the same.[[BR]]
I started out with VB 6.1.14-140239. Nowadays I test with VB 6.1.16-140961, a preliminary test with VB 6.1.17-141128 shows no discernable effects.[[BR]]
It should be noted that both the Slackware and Xubuntu instances via symlinks refer to the same VM's.

The Slackware ""error"" VBox.log ends with:[[BR]]

{{{
GUI: UIDesktopWidgetWatchdog::sltHandleHostScreenAvailableGeometryCalculated:[[BR]]
 Screen 0 work area is actually resized to: 0x0 x 1920x1173
}}}

while the Xubuntu ""ok"" one contains:

{{{
GUI: UIDesktopWidgetWatchdog::sltHandleHostScreenAvailableGeometryCalculated:[[BR]]
 Screen 0 work area is actually resized to: 0x25 x 1920x1150
}}}


The i7-6700 had embedded video, so used the i915 driver. My Ryzen has a discrete video card -- an ASUS Radeon RX 550 PH-RX550-2G-EVO one:
-- lspci: [AMD/ATI] Lexa PRO [Radeon 540/540X/550/550X / RX 540X/550/550X] (rev c7).
supported by the amdgpu driver.

To isolate the problem I did the following tests:[[BR]]
-- I cloned the Slackware instance to an i5 laptop with embedded video: the VM's there started and ran without problems;[[BR]]
-- Back on the AMD box I replaced my 5.9.3-burdi64 kernel with Slackware's stock 5.4.74 one: the VM's started and ran without problems;[[BR]]
-- I upped the Xubuntu kernel to the 5.9.2-050902-generic one from the kernel PPA: the VM's started and ran without problems;[[BR]]
-- I replaced the Xubuntu VB 6.1.16-140961 .deb implementation with the .run one: the VM's started and ran without problems;[[BR]]
-- Back on my Slackware instance I replaced the 5.4.74 kernel with the Xubuntu 5.9.2-050902-generic one: the VM's started and ran without problems.

As said when the problem occurs one often cannot do much more than hard resetting the system. By formally repeating these tests and collecting as much info as possible I found that for the ""error"" case the syslog reports an oops ""unable to handle page fault for address"", the call trace of which starts within vboxdrv.

The Slackware the VBox.logs and the /var/log/messages file as collected are:[[BR]]
-- VBox-59S.log: the ""error"" with my 5.9.3-burdi64 kernel;[[BR]]
-- VBox-54S.log: the ""ok"" with Slackware's stock 5.4.74 kernel;[[BR]]
-- VBox-59U.log: the ""ok"" with the Xubuntu 5.9.2-050902-generic kernel;[[BR]]
-- messages: searching for ""========="" will give you the ""error"" and ""ok"" sections.

It is likely that something in the configuration of my 5.9.3-burdi64 kernel triggers the problem. But which setting is the culprit? My config is 187.4 kB and the Xubuntu one is 248.8 kB. So comparing the two is an almost hopeless endevour ...

Any hints would be appreciated.[[BR]]

I'm trying to convert this raw image to VDI using VBoxManage, but it appears to fail while not providing any error message.

More precisely, here is what happens:

1) I run this command :


{{{
$ VBoxManage convertfromraw --format vdi output/mini-ubuntu-base.img output/mini-ubuntu-base.vdi
}}}


2) It prints what follows and appears to be running (and my CPU load does tell it is running):


{{{

3) *While* it is running, using a second terminal, I can see that a VDI file is being created :


{{{
$ ls -lah output | grep vdi
-rw-------. 1 ebo ebo 6,5G 26 janv. 10:28 mini-ubuntu-base.vdi
}}}


4) But then, when the 'VBoxManage' command returns… the VDI file has disappeared!


{{{
$ ls -lah output | grep vdi

}}}

Which means something went wrong somewhere I suppose, but I tend to believe that some output should tell so?

Similar segfaults have been observed by others in the forums. As noted by some, the Virtualbox logs do not indicate a problem at the time of the crash.
Shared Clipboard is DISABLED for the guests.  I do not make use of this feature and so turn it off for my guest machines.

Host: Fedora 32 Linux running kernel 5.11
Virtualbox installation via virtualbox.org site: Fedora repo and manually downloaded extension pack.

I've noticed the problem since upgrading from Virtualbox 5.2 to Virtualbox 6.x as part of an upgrade from Fedora 30 to Fedora 32 several months ago.

The problem has persisted through a recent upgrade to Virtualbox 6.20.

If I do not log into the Guest after booting the guest, but shut it down from the Guest login screen, the guest shuts down without crashing.  I'm assuming that this is related to engaging some part of the Guest additions services after logging into the guest.  Again, Shared Clipboard has been turned off in the guest's options within the Virtualbox control GUI.

As I understand it, the shared clipboard will run services on both the host and the guest to manage the data exchange.  It appears that something may trigger a poling of the clipboard from the host side during guest shutdown, independent of whether the service is running on the guest.

My host setup:
* OS: Ubuntu 20.04.1
* Kernel: tested with 5.8.0-41-generic (Ubuntu) and 5.9.16-050916-generic (mainline)
* System: HP ProBook 650 G8
* CPU: 11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-1135G7 @ 2.40GHz
* VirtualBox: tested with 6.1.16 (Ubuntu's repo) and 6.1.18 r142142 (Oracle's repo)

Conditions that do not cause a crash:
* running the VM in safe mode
* running the VM in a different host with Ubuntu 20.04.1, kernel 5.8, Virtualbox 6.1.18 r142142, CPU AMD Ryzen 9 3900X
* converting the VM's vdi file to qcow2 and running it with KVM

What have been tested without success (VM still crashes):
* running it with a different CPU profile, ""i7-6700K"" instead of ""host""
* uninstalling the VirtualBox Guest Additions

When the vitual hdd is defined during VM creation, I selected a dynamically allocated VDI. As far as I can tell, the size selected will be the maximum size of the hdd on the host and that less space will be allocated initially and extended as needed during guest operation. Correct?

My situation is a VM with a dynamically allocated hdd of 384GB. Right now it's at 45GB or so but is trying to extend the size. The guest is reporting disk problems and out of space problems and has now changed one partition to read only. What I think is happening is that the guest has a code path which Virtual Box intercepts, does some magic to add space, restart the operation. This is apparently NOT happening. The path through Virtual Box may or may not be trying to handle this situation but then appears to let the error(s) continue through the guest OS (5.12.0-0.rc5.180.fc35.x86_64).

Here's what the host thinks of the partition where the VDI is located:

{{{
Filesystem                         1K-blocks        Used   Available  Really_Available Use% Mount_Point
/dev/sda8                         1735405656   485065980  1250569508        1250339676  28% /export/home
}}}

The guest thinks it's VDI is:

{{{
Filesystem     1K-blocks     Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda2        1992552   164592   1706720   9% /

/dev/sda6       65478188   936844  61169520   2% /opt
}}}

Which is considerably less than 384GB.

Additionally, the guest is throwing numerous messages like these:

I have added a static mapping between the guests NIC MAC addresses and their assigned IPs. The NatNetwork-Dhcpd.config file shows what I mean:

    <Config MACAddress=""08:00:27:00:00:01"" name=""59c98231-ac44-4e62-8bfe-1bd937c3fff1/0"" fixedAddress=""192.168.40.101""/>

The same information is reflected in `VirtualBox.xml` (the global config file) though when using `VBoxManage` to set up the mapping I did use the first NIC of each guest to set the mapping hence the `/0` after the guest VM UUID:


    <Config MACAddress=""08:00:27:00:00:01"" name=""59c98231-ac44-4e62-8bfe-1bd937c3fff1/0"" fixedAddress=""192.168.40.101""/>

    <Config MACAddress=""08:00:27:00:00:02"" name=""824e3a1b-2542-454d-bfee-c8aad2ad1c90/0"" fixedAddress=""192.168.40.102""/>

Now it comes the twist: DHCP Client ID in machines running Systemd-Network use /etc/machine-id to construct it but both machines have the same contents (due to cloning, you know) in this file hence the Client ID sent to the DHCP is always the same (as seen in NatService-Dhcpd.log)... and the dhcp server in the Nat Service returns the same IP address for both guests.

2) ""Kali Linux"" and ""Shellter"" still running. They got a log entry saying:

01:57:46.655025 VirtualBoxClient: detected unresponsive VBoxSVC (rc=NS_ERROR_CALL_FAILED)

01:58:16.598405 VirtualBoxClient: detected unresponsive VBoxSVC (rc=NS_ERROR_CALL_FAILED)

A popup at each of the two instances tells the instance needs to finish. I ignore these messages and let them run to the end.

3) After the remaining scripts are finished, data from them also appears on disk but not in the Manager. All three are written correctly.

4) After killing (both with SIGTERM) the manager and the server, starting the manager again all appears in the list and can be run.

Bug entry message from VBoxSVC is:

This has been mentioned in a comment(thanks!) in https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/20055#comment:16

I'm happy to test any patches, or if you think the issue is on the kernel side...

Here are my notes, I'm not sure how useful all this is but I'm happy to do more things if you tell me what:

no crash now with the following .config diff (compared to previous):
{{{

+CONFIG_INLINE_WRITE_UNLOCK=y
+CONFIG_INLINE_WRITE_UNLOCK_IRQ=y
-CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK=y
+# CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK is not set
}}}
so to avoid crash, you need(at least):

CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK=n (which forces CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC=n)

but doesn't matter if =y on the following:
{{{
CONFIG_DEBUG_RT_MUTEXES=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKING_API_SELFTESTS=y
}}}
-------
nvmTODO: try with:
{{{
+# CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK is not set
}}}
but with
{{{
CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC=y
}}}
Can't, because if CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC=y then it's forced that CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK=y !

However, while attempting to use the Java SDK to select this controller through vboxwebsrv, we get an error. This seems to be related to using vboxwebsrv, as selecting the virtio-scsi controller in the UI of Virtualbox or vboxmanage works as expected.

Since the virtio scsi controller is new in 6.1, we suspect that vboxwebsrv has not been modified to accept/handle the new controller type, but we can't be sure.

The error we get back is
{{{

The Java code is:

waitFor(ova.read(ovaName));
ova.interpret();
waitFor(ova.importMachines(List.of(ImportOptions.ImportToVDI)));

machine.lockMachine(session, LockType.Write);

The fault is ""VCPU0: Guru Meditation -2301 (VERR_REM_VIRTUAL_CPU_ERROR)""

The host is Fedora 28 - the details are in your logs, attached.

I did not attach the .PNG files because they consist of (only) a black screen.

However, prior to that, I do see the splash screen, ""Welcome to Grub"",
then the crash.  I use a detachable start - but a ""normal"" start has
the same symptom.

this looks like a regression in 6.1.2 and 6.0.16 since I cannot duplicate with 6.0.14.
The VM simply disappears from the screen. Sometimes with no visible reason, but every few USB unplug/replug cycles. I found the USB part since I write some code that communicates to a USB device (CDC-ACM aka ComPort emulation). One of the actions does cause the device to reboot (on purpose).

Other times it sits in the background and when I want to open the VM window again, it is gone. Then sometimes it crashes immediately at start or shortly after. A host reboot brings it back to work (until it crashes randomly again).
Host and guest are running with latest updates.

G: Win10-64, 19H2 (but also showed at 19h1)

I have not seen a crash with Linux guests, but do not use them often right now.

In the logs I did not find useful hints, I hope you do. Let me know when I can help with debugging.

to increase the performances of Adobe Lightroom in a Windows 7 VM, I tried recently to increase the number of cores in my Windows 7 VM and I noticed a serious drop in 2D graphics performances.

I first believed it was due to some regression in recent versions of VirtualBox, so I did some benchmarks (using PassMark 9) in the VM with VirtualBox 5.2.x and 6.1.x, and I got the same performance drop for 2D graphics, whatever the VirtualBox version, when I increased the number of cores in the VM. So, it's not a regression.

I have a very powerful machine, with 16 physical cores and 128 GB RAM, so I was able to plot the PassMark 2D score vs the number of cores (2, 4, 8 or 16) in the VM. Then I exported my VM to VMware Player, and I did the same benchmark. The attached image 'figure_2D.png' shows the results (higher score is better). As you can see, the 2D graphics score for VirtualBox linearly decreases as the number of cores increases. The 2D score is divided by ~4 between 2 cores and 16.

However, this is not the same for VMware, where one can see a small decrease of 15% between 2 cores and 16.

I also plotted the CPU score of PassMark vs the number of cores in the VM (image 'figure_CPU.png', higher score is better). For this benchmark, VirtualBox and VMware perform the same until 8 cores, but VMware gives a much better result for 16 cores.

I tried many parameter tweaks in VirtualBox but I was not able to improve the situation. I also tried with another PC that has less cores, and I saw the same performance drop...

Note that the performance drop I see in PassMark scores (in a Windows 7 VM) reflects what I see as a user in the windows 7 VM. This is not an artefact of using PassMark in a VM. For example, with 16 cores in a VirtualBox VM, moving a window is painfully slow. The CPU load is very high even when I do nothing, the fans are at maximum speeds, etc. Those problems do not arise in VMware player: the CPOU load is low, and the VM is very snappy, whatever the number of cores.

To me, there should be no interaction between increasing the number of cores and the 2D graphics performance. It's clearly a bug or perhaps a side effect of the way multicore processing is done in VirtualBox...

Under GNOME settings, there is a testing option under sound preferences, no sound is available in the test.

If there is a video in a web page, like YouTube, sometimes sound can play 2-3 seconds but then the video will be muted, and frames are freezed as well, not only sound is unavailable but the video is affcted as well.

I tried to remove Pipewire and install Pulseaudio, everything is ok and back to normal again.

Mouse click stops working on host/guest due to window focusOutEvent problem in Qt GUI

Postby Cryptkeeper » 7. May 2021, 17:37
Hi,

for more than two years now (so probably since VB version 6.0 or so) from time to time I am affected by a very anoying bug. Then mouse clicks stops working on the host and the guest as well. I can still move the mouse pointer but clicks are not recognized anymore. The only solution then is to shut down *all* running guest instances. Then the mouse clicks starts working again.

I am sure it is not a drag and drop problem like in https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/14743

There will be no entry in the logs, when the bug occurs. It happend very randomly to me but after a while with a screen record I figured out the following steps to reliable reproduce the bug:

1) Click on the taskbar to restore VM window from minimized state
2) Press down the mouse button on the taskbar and keep it pressed
3) Release the mouse button and immediatly press it again
4) Now no further clicks are registered until VM is shut down

(I agree that this looks like a very special and rare circumstance - however I think that this bug is a race condition and as I often switch between different windows with the taskbar I'm hit by it very often.)

Here is a screencast of the bug as GIF: https://s3.gifyu.com/images/vbox-bug.gif

When the bug occurs *xprop* on the hosts exits with the error ""xprop: error: Can't grab the mouse"" - on the guest it just hangs as no click is registered. Also the bug only occurs with the Qt front end of VirtualBox - with the SDL front end I couldn't reproduce the error.

From the steps I assume that the bug is kind of a race condition on the minimize respectively focus out / focus in event of the window. So I tried to build VirtualBox from source and try to trace the bug. And indeed I figured out, that the bug does not occure if I comment out the following 3 lines in the file src/VBox/Frontends/VirtualBox/src/runtime/UIMachineView.cpp.

Code: Select all   Expand view
    void UIMachineView::focusOutEvent(QFocusEvent *pEvent)
    {
        /* If native event filter exists: */
        if (m_pNativeEventFilter)
        {
            /* Uninstall/destroy existing native event filter: */
               
            //qApp->removeNativeEventFilter(m_pNativeEventFilter);
            //delete m_pNativeEventFilter;
            //m_pNativeEventFilter = 0;
        }

        /* Call to base-class: */
        QAbstractScrollArea::focusOutEvent(pEvent);
    }



I tried to dig deeper but I'm kind of stuck. Because I don't know what this native event filter is used for and why it is destroyed on focus out event.

Can anyone help me to debug this further?

Thanks a lot!",Seann

I have a pretty boring problem with virtualbox installed on Kali host and windows 10 as guest. When I use windows 10, after an indefinite time (sometimes immediately, sometimes after a few minutes of use), the touchpad or mouse stops working in both the host system and the guest system. More specifically, the keyboard works correctly, while the click of the touchpad or mouse does not work. The only way to fix this is to shut down the Windows virtual machine.

== Affected Software ==

Oracle VM VirtualBox 6.1.22



== Description of Vulnerability ==

This vulnerability allows guest VM to cause denial of service in the context of the host hypervisor. High privileged code on the target guest system is required to exploit this vulnerability. 



== Technical Details ==

VirtualBox provide a HostService named **""VBoxSharedClipboard""** to perform the operation of shared clipboard between Host and Guest. The guest sends the request through **HGCM (Host-Guest Communication Manager)**. The vulnerability is when guest quickly send `VMMDevReq_HGCMDisconnect` and `VMMDevReq_HGCMCall64` to the same service sequentially. That service will operate the `VMMDevReq_HGCMCall64` after the `VMMDevReq_HGCMDisconnect`. So `pvClient` the internal object used in service has been released when it perform disconnect function. But Later **HGCMCall** will use that freed object to operate guest requested function and cause use after free.

In code [1], it free the pCtx and later will be used in **HGCMCall**

`svcDisconnect` -> 
    `ShClSvcImplDisconnect`

When the guest send a `VBOX_SHCL_GUEST_FN_REPORT_FORMATS` request and guest's uMode is set to `VBOX_SHCL_MODE_BIDIRECTIONAL` or `VBOX_SHCL_MODE_GUEST_TO_HOST`
which is `not` default setting in code [2], it will perform the following function. In function `XtAppAddTimeOut`, it will get crashed.

== The POC ==

The following are step by step guide for replicating the bug:
1. Upload the file `poc.c` and `internal.h` into the guest
2. Compile the poc by `gcc poc.c -o poc`
3. Run `poc` as root



== Requirements ==

* The Host OS must be Linux
* Attacker must be able to run **high-privileged** code on the guest
* The setting of Shared Clipboard need to be `Guest to Host` or `Bidirectional`",info_starlabs

20365,Linux guest won't boot unless hard disk is set as the priority,Linux,VirtualBox 6.1.22,2021-05-13T19:11:02Z,2021-05-14T10:33:56Z,2021-05-14T10:33:56Z,"After installing the latest CentOS 7.8
The OS refuses to boot unless the boot order for the VM is specifically changed so that the VM boots from the disk first.
If I set the boot order to something else (for example network for IPXE testing),the operating system instead shows an error ""fatal: int18: BOOT FAILURE"".
Most of what I found online talks about installing the disk in GPT vs MBR, but that shouldn't have much bearing since I know I installed the VM as MBR. None the less, I still tried to change the VM to UEFI since that is what the online community instructs.  However, no effect was detected besides the VM booting into the UEFI shell. However, if the boot order for the VM is changed, even though the other boot options are not being used and the option for disk is eventually reached, the boot option for the disk will eventually show the error.

20363,building kernel modules on a multiarch host fails,other,VirtualBox 6.1.22,2021-05-13T15:17:30Z,2021-05-13T15:17:30Z,2021-05-13T15:17:30Z,"In the Makefile-header.gmk of the three actual kernel modules, the BUILD_TARGET_ARCH_DEF variable, that reflect in BUILD_TARGET_ARCH, the actually used one, is set by the shell command

But on a multiarch environment is perfectly sane having a 32 bit version of dpkg-architecture, even if running a 64 bit kernel or building for a 64 bit kernel installed but not running at the moment of building.
In such a case, the build fails because BUILD_TARGET_ARCH is set to i686.
Maybe it's a bug in dpkg, but please consider using a different method to find the target kernel architecture.

This is annoying when searching for an selection that you don't know exactly where it is located or if accidentally clicking the neighboring menu by mistake.

Reproduce:
1) Start a guest (any guest, doesn't matter what OS)
2) Disable pinning on VirtualBox toolbar
3) Click on any Menu, let's take [Help] as an example.
4) Try to highlight (i.e. NOT selecting/clicking) [Help] -> [About VirtualBox...] -> (back to top again) -> [Devices] -> [Audio]  and do this *without* clicking the mouse again.

Result:
Toolbar will disappear approximately one second after [Help] is clicked, making navigating between different top menus impossible without  having to raise the toolbar again (done by clicking somewhere outside the now ""floating"" Help-sub menu and then moving mouse back to toolbar.

Expected result:
Toolbar remains active until any sub menu selection is selection is activated/clicked",utforskaren

I have created 5 VMs based on Debian 10, with Natnetwork configured (because i need to let the VMs talk to each others and access the Vpn on the host).

Each one has static IP, no specific tunning or special configuration. just Debian Vms and default natnetwork configured.

All Vms are working without any problems, i can access it with port forwarding. and after a while (one minute, 3 minutes...), the IP connectivity is suddenly cut, the ssh connections are stuck !

I must restart the natnetwork with VBoxManage ... Same result with paravirtualized network interface or Intel Pro desktop.
So, it s impossible to work in theses conditions.

it seems that problem exists for years or i missed something ?

Thanks to do something on that issue.

Testing conditions were as follows:

Setting up a fresh Debian Bullseye installation on amd64 from a debian-11.1.0-amd64-DVD-1.iso installer image with package groups ""Debian desktop environment"", ""Xfce"" and ""Standard System Tools"" selected. System local language is ""de_DE.UTF-8"".

Next installing virtualbox-6.1_6.1.26-145957~Debian~bullseye_amd64.deb by Debian package management tools of the distro from repo
""deb [arch=amd64] https://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian bullseye contrib""

Now standard functionality (configuration of VMs, running VMs, etc) provided by the VirtualBox components and tools (hypervisor, GUI-App, VBoxManage) looks like working fine out of the box.

Unfortunately, this doesn't hold true for the Python wrapper of the API of VirtualBox. Starting vboxshell.py by the python3.9 interpreter of the distro provides the above mentioned error!

The issue appears to be related to issues #19644 (which relates to a newer base kernel version) and #20488 (which relates to the Guest Additions, not the host drivers), both associated with the symbol `map_vm_area` no longer being exported by the kernel.

This was initially observed with VirtualBox 6.0, but it still occurs with VirtualBox 6.1.26, as installed via the official VirtualBox-6.1-6.1.26_145957_el8-1.x86_64 RPM.

Things that didn't work were:
using the display settings within the OS to set a resolution
Using the View menu to set Auto-resize Guest Display and then use the View menu to set the display size for Virtual Screen 1.
In both cases the screen would resize as expected but, after a reboot and logging in again the screen size would jump back to 2014X768. When 3D acceleration was turned off I could see that the screen size was initially at the selected size before jumping back to 1025X763. With 3D acceleration turned on I cannot see the jump.

This was first reported at https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1192338 where the reporter noted that he could not attach an iPhone to iTunes through his Windows 10 VM on an openSUSE Leap 15.3 host. He also notes that when the VM is closed, there is no power on the USB port until he reboots.

I further tested using an RTL8188EUS Wifi dongle passed through to a Windows 7 or 10 guest from an openSUSE Tumbleweed host. In this case, the Windows software creates a network device, but is unable to complete setting it up. This operation worked with 6.1.26.

20669,Multicast originating from different subnet does not reach Guest only on Ubuntu(Linux?) Host,Linux,VirtualBox 6.1.28,2021-11-15T17:07:49Z,2021-11-17T19:07:55Z,2021-11-17T19:07:55Z,"Hello,

I have run into an issue that I now believe is a bug.

Basically, I am receiving status updates from various devices on the network in my VM. They use multicast on 224.0.0.50.
The devices are on a different subnet from the Host and the Guest (the host and the guest are on the same subnet), but everyone can communicate between each other just fine.
This works on Host Windows 10 but not on Host Ubuntu 18.04. 
Using Virtualbox 6.1.28. 

Also, tried:
- 6.1.26
- 6.1.29 revision 148164 test build
- 6.1.97 development revision 148162

All the above w/ extpack

The guest is using bridged networking.
On Windows it's using Intel PRO/1000 MT Desktop (82540EM). 
On the Ubuntu host I've tried them all with no luck.
On Windows promiscuous mode is set to Deny and greyed out, on the Ubuntu host I tried enabling it to Allow-All, no luck.

Both hosts receive the multicast packet (used wireshark on windows and tcpdump on linux to verify on both the hosts and the guests), but only on the Windows 10 host will it manage to be picked up by the Guest.
I'm attaching a screenshot from a packet capture from inside the Guest with Windows 10 as a host. These two packets are the expected behavior. On Ubuntu Host, only the first one (the direct reply) makes it all the way to the Guest. The multicast packet is lost.

It is worth mentioning that it's the exact same VM copied from Windows to Linux to make this test as good as possible.

Multicast packets originating from the same subnet are well-received.
I also tried mimicking network routes on the Ubuntu host as seen on the Windows host but to no avail.
I tried nuking the routes on the windows host to see if it affected the Windows Guest receiving it but it did not.

All is well on 6.1.26. Upgrading to 6.1.28 causes all guests to fail on startup, with the following error message.

{{{

I further attempted to export the guests from 6.1.26, and import them into 6.1.28, but that made no difference.

Downgrading back to 6.1.26 restores correct functionality, so luckily, that's easy. This operation also proves that there's nothing amiss with the machines themselves.

Even worse, newly-created VMs exhibit the same error, so to put it bluntly, 6.1.28 does not work at all on this system.

When i am in Virtualbox Manager and want to edit a setting of a VM that is NOT running, i get a warning that the VM is running and not all settings are stored or changed.. every time that script is called. The exact warning is in Dutch, but from the forum is got this in English:

'''""The virtual machine you are changing has been started. Only certain settings can be changed while a machine is running. All other changes will be lost if you close this window now""'''

The line in the bash script is:
'''""vboxmanage showvminfo ""W7_64"" | grep -c ""running (since"" ""'''

So calling ""vboxmanage showvminfo"" creates a warning that the VM is running when you try to edit guest settings.

To create this situation, open vbox manager, click on usb settings an leave that open, then go to the terminal and start ""vbmanage showvminfo"". The warning pops up that the VM is running.

20762,VM crash after KVMS switch,Linux,VirtualBox 6.1.30,2022-01-07T02:17:10Z,2022-01-07T02:17:10Z,2022-01-07T02:17:10Z,"See [https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=104891&sid=51cd5f0216603e8bec8562fd1da4b3bc] for more information.

Environment:

I have multiple PCs connected by a keyboard-video-mouse-switch (KVMS, to clearly distinguish from kvm, the kernel virtualization subsystem).  The KVMS is a FJGear USB2.0 HDMI KVM model FJ-401HUA.  I will refer to these PCs as A, B, and C.  All 3 boxes are hosting Devuan Beowulf, and all VMs running on all boxes are running Devuan Beowulf Ascii, Beowulf, or Chimaera under virtualbox 6.1.30.  All hosts are running the latest virtualbox extensions, and guests are running the latest virtualbox guest additions.

Description of the Problem:

The problem is that switching between two of these boxes causes a VM running USB 3 to crash.  After an initial switch from A to B and back to A, one VM running USB 3 on A had crashed.  In one instance, switching a second time after this from A to B and back to A, all but one VM running USB 3 had crashed and even a VM running USB 2 had also crashed.  

Detail:

I run virtualbox on PCs A and B.   I use PC A for most of my regular activities; B and C are ""test"" boxes.  However, despite B being a testbox, I do have the VMs on B networked together with some of the VMs on A.  The 3 PCs are networked through an electronic ethernet switch.

The KVMS does work, although there is a bit of a wait for the video to re-sync after a switch.   The KVMS is capable up to 1920x1080, which matches my monitor's resolution.   Normally, I don't notice any peculiar behavior related to using the manual buttons on the face of the unit.  There are some messages logged after each switch, but they have never caused an issue until I changed the VM (the one that crashed) to USB 3.

I have attached the log for the crashed VM (see above link).  These logs were created by saving them from the log dialog box in the virtualbox GUI.  I have not modified them other than to obfuscate private information.  The logs are cut short for some reason, but it is NOT related to the obfuscation script.  I can save the logs again, from the GUI again, and the same results occur.   The line counts of the log files match before and after obfuscation.

I have a bug that I've been facing for approaching 2-years (19-months, actually). No matter what I do, the bug remains. Let me explain.

The bug, which I describe further below, first appeared in '''August''' of '''2020''' on '''Fedora-32 64-bit''', which is the '''HOST''' O/S. Back then, I had hoped that the bug would be confined to a particular '''Fedora Kernel''' and waited for the next one; but as I upgraded Fedora-32 Kernels, the bug persisted.

Then, I eventually upgraded to '''Fedora-33''' (again, the '''HOST'''), and the bug persisted through that Fedora version and through all of its Kernels, as well. The same occurred with '''Fedora-34'''.

For '''Fedora-35''', I decided to reinstall everything from scratch: I reinstalled '''Fedora-35''' ('''HOST''') from scratch; as well as reinstalled '''Windows-10''' ('''GUEST'''). Without customizing much, except to apply the '''Extension Pack''' and '''Guest Additions''', I launched a Windows-10 VM (with everything fresth). The bug immediately surfaced. It always takes about ~5 to 10 minutes to occur, by the way.

Now, all of this was on a '''Lenovo''' '''Y700-17isk''' Laptop.

So, I decided to do the same procedure on an '''ASUS G750 Rogue''' Laptop: I installed '''Fedora-35''' ('''HOST''') from scratch; as well as installed '''Windows-10''' ('''GUEST''') from scratch. Without customizing much, except to apply the '''Extension Pack''' and '''Guest Additions''', I launched a Windows-10 VM (with everything fresh). The bug immediately surfaced. 

No matter what I do, I cannot get rid of this bug. I think that circa '''August 2020''', either '''Fedora''' and/or '''VirtualBox''' changed something that is causing this long-running bug.

'''THE PROBLEM''':

-- I first reported this problem on '''August 2020''' ('''Lenovo Y700-17isk''' laptop) [https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=99328 here]

-- Then, I reported this problam again yesterday, '''February 2022''' ('''ASUS G750 Rogue''') [https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=105295 here]


Here is a paste of yesterdays description for your convenience:


{{{
VirtualBox Version..................: 6.1.32_rpmfusion
HOST O/S............................: Fedora-35
HOST Kernel.........................: 5.14.10-300.fc35.x86_64
GUEST O/S (with latest updates......: Windows-11 (happens with Windows-10, as well)

}}}


What happens is this: VirtualBox is working perfectly (Network, Audio, Shared Drive, Cut & Paste, Keyboard & Mouse Capture, Mapped USB Devices, etc); but then suddenly, after, say, 5 to 10 minutes, the Keyboard stops responding to Keystrokes, and the Touchpad stops responding to Taps. The only thing that responds is moving the mouse-cursor around by swiping around the Touchpad, but that's it. This happens whether or not the GUEST (Windows 10 / 11) is in Fullscreen mode or Window mode. Except for being able to move the mouse-cursor around, Keystrokes and Touchpad Taps stop working inside the GUEST window, or around it on the HOST. The only option I have to to crash the Laptop by holding the power-button down. Actually, I did try to SSH into the HOST from another server, and while it does initiate the SSH connection, it never can never actually log in. So the HOST is still quote/unquote kind of running, but in a hobbled state.

I should also mention that this issue arises even with more basics setups: USB disabled; Audio disabled; Network with LAN or Bridged; etc.

Please help me. I think this is a real bug. It persists no matter what I do. For the better part of two-years, I haven't been able to use VirtualBox.

I can upload or add more information. Just let me know what you need.

To clarify, lockup means that Virtualbox locks up, not the guest; pressing the reset button in virtualbox does nothing. The window will not close unless I issue a ""killall VirtualBoxVM"", but the UI remains mostly responsive. This has been happening since around 6.1.24. 6.1.22 is the latest version that works fine. On the host, I am using ALSA without pulseaudio. I normally use a very customized asoundrc file, but even without my special ALSA configs, the issue still occurs. 

On a WinXP guest, I am experiencing a complete freeze when attempting to move the volume slider and sometimes audio playback causes a freeze. 

On a Ubuntu 16.04 guest (kernel 4.4), audio playback happens too fast/slow sporadically. When this happens, I see lines like these in dmesg on the guest.
[    9.025442] snd_intel8x0 0000:00:05.0: intel8x0_measure_ac97_clock: measured 55894 usecs (2880 samples)
[    9.025446] snd_intel8x0 0000:00:05.0: clocking to 44715
When that value (44715) is below 48k, audio is slow. When above, it's fast. Rebooting the VM seems to randomly change this ""clocking to ..."" value. Also, occasionally, after a long audio playback session with google chrome + youtube the VirtualBox instance will hang on shutdown (VM guest shuts down, but window remains open).",li200

I tried to connect JMicron Icy Box IB-G1826MF-C31 inside with a Crucial P5 Plus 500GB nvme m.2 ssd through USB to the guest system but I get only notification to the device connection but no drive assigned to it. If I add the drive letter manually in the disk manager of the guest system then I can browse the files on it, but only read only. The host system is a Fedora 35, the guest system which I tried was Windows 10 and Windows 7 fully updated. Any other USB devices are working, for ex. Kingston 128GB stick, or webcam, etc. If I connect this USB kit to the host system I can read and write files and folders, its the same when I use it on windows based host system. I need to use it like an usb device because the Rekordbox software (shared folders way not a solution).

From time to time I experience different kinds of freezes. Sometimes, when I am in the VM I can contiue to work in the VM, but can't select another window from the host. Sometimes, when I am outside of the VM I can continue to work in all windows of the host, but can't switch back to the guest. In all cases so far I was able to switch to the console (Ctrl-Alt-F2) and back to the GUI. The mouse continues to work.

Often the system went back to normal after waiting for a couple of seconds. But some times, even waiting for 10 minutes, does not solve the problem and the poweroff via the CLI from the console helps: ""VBoxManage controlvm poweroff"".

I had this problem also seldomly on KUbuntu 18.04. It was so rare that I did not bother. Now it is happening more often and I already tried to find a solution via Google.

By now I am quite certain that it is caused by copy-and-paste in the Windows VM and keeping things selected. Especially when working with Excel. This forum post seems to describe the same issue: https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?t=99685

I've also asked on askubuntu: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1406257/kubuntu-22-04-jammy-host-virtualbox-6-1-32-windows-guest-gui-freezes-in-both-d
At the time I thought it might be related to using shared folders, but by now I am quite certain that copy and pasting from Windows to Linux causes the problem.

20994,PXE UNDI driver transmit seems to be mapping existing transmit buffer instead of making a copy,other,VirtualBox 6.1.34,2022-06-19T04:07:03Z,2022-06-19T04:07:03Z,2022-06-19T04:07:03Z,"To be fair, haven't dug that far into VirtualBox code (don't really use SVN, and don't have an easy web interface to search the code for what I'm looking for) but, the most recent code I could find on GitHub for VBox seems to suggest it's mapping the supplied transmit buffer and not copying it before return: https://github.com/TedHartDavis/VBoxMirror/blob/3d7f37ab5b248566e1dc17df8ee495628bb007e5/src/VBox/Devices/EFI/FirmwareNew/OptionRomPkg/UndiRuntimeDxe/Decode.c#L1214, https://github.com/TedHartDavis/VBoxMirror/blob/3d7f37ab5b248566e1dc17df8ee495628bb007e5/src/VBox/Devices/EFI/Firmware/OptionRomPkg/UndiRuntimeDxe/E100b.c#L1100

Given that, I'm currently the following behavior running GRUB in VirtualBox and it sending DNS:

1. GRUB (2.06) allocates a single, fixed scratch-space buffer for sending packets via PXE UNDI; this buffer is reused for every packet send. (See https://github.com/rhboot/grub2/blob/ef36b3c93d27bdfc7a68469be33bd8be95630e6a/grub-core/net/drivers/i386/pc/pxe.c#L259)
2. When running in VirtualBox, I can get GRUB to send DNS requests manually with the net_nslookup command.
3. When GRUB is in prefer-ipv4 mode (default), it tries to send one A DNS request followed by an IPv6 AAAA request.
4. Looking in Wireshark, I can see it just sending two AAAA requests instead (seems like the AAAA query contents are somehow clobbering the A query), separated by about 0.2ms.
5. When I set debug=dns in GRUB, the delay of debug-print-to-console seems to introduce enough delay that I see separate A and AAAA requests in Wireshark (now separated by about 1ms).

The best explanation I have for these observations is that VirtualBox's UNDI/PXE implementation is not mixing well with GRUB's extreme transmit buffer reuse, and causing a sufficiently quick sequence of transmits to clobber previous packets' contents.

I'm not that familiar with PXE or UNDI API requirements, but it seems like the driver should not return without at least making a copy of the data buffer, even if it doesn't transmit the packet immediately? In any case, would hope someone can take a look at the spec and determine whether this is actually a bug on VirtualBox's side or GRUB's.

20928,"Wrong IPC socket being deleted when VirtualBox is run via su on Linux, leading to possible disk corruption in VMs",all,VirtualBox 6.1.34,2022-05-05T13:10:54Z,2022-05-05T13:10:54Z,2022-05-05T13:10:54Z,"This is related to ticket #17029 which has the same symptoms, but I'm not sure if it is caused by the same issue.

!VirtualBox, via src/VBox/Installer/linux/VBox.sh, checks for the presence of a VBoxSVC process owned by the current user and will delete a user-specific directory in /tmp if no process is found. But the process check uses the ""whoami"" command to get the current username and the deletion uses the environment variables $LOGNAME or $USER. Certain implementations of su, such as the one from util-linux, does not update $LOGNAME or $USER when switching to the root user, but whoami will return ""root"". Thus, if a user named ""vmuser"" runs !VirtualBox through su, it will search for processes owned by root but delete the socket belonging to vmuser.

The removal of these files will then lead to bad side effects for VMs that were previously running, as future calls to !VirtualBox will create a new IPC socket in /tmp. When using this new socket, all VMs will be shown as being powered off when they might still be running. It is also possible to start another instance of a running VM, which leads to disk corruption when both instances attempt to write to the same disk image.

Not all implementations of su seem to behave in this way, and using sudo or ""sudo su"" can sometimes cause $LOGNAME and $USER to be changed to ""root"", mitigating the issue. Using su by itself seems to have the highest chance of triggering this bug.

Replication steps:
1. Start any VM using ""{{{vboxmanage startvm <VM_NAME> --type headless}}}"" (take a snapshot beforehand in case of disk corruption).
2. Check that two files called ""ipcd"" and ""lock"" are present using ""{{{ls -l /tmp/.vbox-$USER-ipc}}}"".
3. Try to start the same VM again, this should fail with a message that the VM is already locked by a session.
4. Switch to the root account using ""{{{su}}}"" and run ""{{{vboxmanage list vms}}}"".
5. Exit the root shell and run ""{{{ls -l /tmp/.vbox-$USER-ipc}}}"" again to see that the files from step !#2 are now missing.
6. Try to start the VM with the same command as in step !#1, this should now succeed.
7. Run ""{{{ps aux | grep -i vboxheadless}}}"" and see that there are now two processes started for the same VM.

The expected behavior would be that the files in /tmp/.vbox-$USER-ipc/ remain untouched and that step !#6 should refuse to start another VM instance.

While this issue only seems to occur when su does not update $LOGNAME and $USER, I'd argue that either whoami or $LOGNAME/$USER should be used instead of having a mix of both. While running !VirtualBox as root is not recommended, it would be nice if accidentally running ""{{{vboxmanage list vms}}}"" as root did not immediately break existing IPC sessions. I have attached a small patch to replace the use of whoami with $LOGNAME/$USER, and hereby make this modification available under the MIT license.

The !VirtualBox log files are unlikely to contain any relevant information about this bug since it occurs in the initial shell wrapper script, but I can attach them if needed. Here are the results of running the replication steps on an unpatched installation (tested on Ubuntu 22.04 using !VirtualBox 6.1.34):

This error has been since VMSVGA came out and it seems that this is still not fixed. So it is not just VirtualBox 6.1.4 issue but much older one and exist in many former VirtualBox versions.

Graphics controller in VirtualBox machine settings
* in case of GNU/Linux by default VMSVGA 
* in case of MS Windows by default VBoxSVGA

'''The truth is that VMSVGA does not allow to resize guest display in GNU/Linux.''' I have to adjust display settings manually in Linux in order to resize display.
When using VBoxSVGA then guest resizing works in GNU/Linux but ''Invalid settings detected'' message is shown in virtual machine (VM) settings that suggest to use VMSVGA unless I have reason to not use. Well - currently I have reason as VMSVGA does not work properly.

Also in case of VBoxSVGA the resizing clutter appears - I need to maximize VM window and back in order to get guest display resizing work properly. This has to be done after every time I wake up my laptop from sleep or start the VM first time.

At the same time in case of MS Windows the VBoxSVGA is chosen by default which works also in case of MS Windows. Actually when to choose VMSVGA in case of MS Windows then you cannot start VM as it is considered invalid setting. Well - no need as VBoxSVGA works.

My proposal: either get VMSVGA to work properly in case of any supported guest OS or remove it permanently from VirtualBox.",Edmund Laugasson

I have been using Whonix 14 for a long time and everything have been working fine but unfortunately I need some soft as libreoffice which I can't download there because Whonix 14 isn't supported. I had to upgrade it. I should note that I used VirtualBox 5.3 with Whonix 14. I decided to make new one from scratch. Downloaded Whonix 15 and import it. I faced with the problem that clipboard didn't work. I decided download new version of VirtulBox = 6.1 This is solved the problem with clipboard but I faced with the bigger problem instead . Now after some time (different time ) VM just close without any reason and in main window of virtulbox I see the title ""Aborted"" . I have several VMs (Whonix 15, Whonix 15, Whonix 14) which usually work together (multiply workstation) and what is strange that one of them work normal (whonix 15) but the other two often crash together in one time. The difference between two whonix 15 is that in one installed psi+ v0.16 . I paid attention to version on psi+ special because it's the version for jessie, some plugins in it work better than in new one. Maybe is that the reason? One more thing I want to note is that I am not cloned first Workstation 15 when I made second Workstation 15 , I just imported all machines again from OVA and then delete second gateway which I didn't need , leaving the second workstation 15.

- Windows 7 SP1

2. Take a online snapshot ""Snapshot 1"";
3. Shutdown the machine and restore to ""Snapshot 1"";
4. Boot the guest VM from ""Snapshot 1"" (directly into the Windows desktop);
5. Reboot/Reset the guest VM;
6. The VM resets, and shows a brief Windows Vista-style loading progress bar, and the VirtualBox (on host machine) freezes before crashing.

Notes:

- I have tried Windows 7 and Windows 10 guests (as decribed above), both are reproducible.
- If Guest Addition is not installed / uninstalled, the bug does not occur.
- If guest VM is cold booted (e.g. after step 4, instead of resetting/rebooting it, just shutdown and boot it), the bug does not occur.

Side note (may not relate to this bug):

After VB freezes/crashes, the RAM for guest VM is simply ""taken away"" from the host and cannot be recovered without a reboot of the host -- My host has 32 GB RAM, and each time a guest with 4 GB RAM crashes, there are 4 GB of RAM taken away from the host. After 7 crashes, 28 GB RAM are taken away from the host. I tried to shutdown Xorg server and there are only a few running processes left (none of them are VirtualBox), the host system still reports there are ~30 GB RAM used (top, htop, free... not cache/buffer, just ""used""). I have to reboot the host system to recover the RAM.",wzyboy

19440,OVF import fails due to incorrect validation of SHA256 digests,all,VirtualBox 6.1.4,2020-03-27T15:38:37Z,2020-03-27T15:38:37Z,2020-03-27T15:38:37Z,"
When importing a virtual machine (VM) from .ovf file that is accompanied by a
.mf file that specifies file integrity hashes using SHA256, the importer (both
fom the GUI or using VBoxManage) check the integrity of the files as part of
the import process.

Specifically, the file I am seeing the issues is the hard drive of the VM,
provided in VMDK format. The importer exits with an error indicating that the
digest of the VMDK file does not match the one in the .mf file, but using tools
such as sha256 sum I see that the hash does match (see output below).

{{{
$ VBoxManage import ~/vms/testvm0146.ovf

}}}

However, sha256sum gives the following output:

{{{
$ sha256sum ~/vms/testvm0146-0.vmdk
03d3ec55ec53133041967054525ca1fbf8714208f9be242219e85a24f0745de9
/home/me/vms/testvm0146-0.vmdk
}}}

Additionally, sha246deep also provides the same hash:

{{{
$ sha256deep ~/vms/testvm0146-0.vmdk
03d3ec55ec53133041967054525ca1fbf8714208f9be242219e85a24f0745de9
/home/me/vms/testvm0146-0.vmdk
}}}

The contents of the testvm0146.mf file are:

{{{
$ cat ~/vms/testvm0146.mf
SHA256(testvm0146-0.vmdk)=
03d3ec55ec53133041967054525ca1fbf8714208f9be242219e85a24f0745de9
SHA256(testvm0146-1.nvram)=

7cbaf2f6dc9ada576ae99ba0f5ef001432650581ad401d4312f297d2737ced49
}}}

As can be seen, the output of sha256sum and the .mf file match
(`03d3ec55ec53133041967054525ca1fbf8714208f9be242219e85a24f0745de9`), but for
some reason virtualbox determines the SHA256 hash to be
`19ffb23de176d73835fe3528d5b4e5a5aac3c15b5e83fc7732f888c6c2d47f9d`, and thus the
comparison fails.

This has been seen both in Oracle Virtualbox packages (in Ubuntu) as well as Debian-packaged virtualbox (in Debian), which suggests the issue is probably upstream in virtualbox.

19423,full crash of host machine,Linux,VirtualBox 6.1.4,2020-03-23T02:23:17Z,2020-03-23T02:23:17Z,2020-03-23T02:23:17Z,"This report is going to be very incomplete for now.  I'll update it, if I can get some instruction on what and how to collect some better detail.  I am getting this crash half a dozen times a day when working in the environment

Environment:
Host Fedora 31 workstations 5.5.10-200.fc31.x86_64
dual monitors
16GB memory, 4 cores
Guest Fedora 31 workstations 5.5.10-200.fc31.x86_64
single monitor
6GB memory, 2 cores
Large window, slightly extending past the physical monitor size
scaled mode
Running guest application: qtcreator, debugging an application

The symptoms, just before the hard (black screen) crash of the host:

Attempt some operation in qtcreator, like clicking to create a new breakpoint.  The application freezes, the VM freezes, and all other applications windows except shells freeze.  Freeze might not be quite right.  Clicking on an application window on the host (2nd monitor) that is occluding a shell window activates the shell not the application window.  So the application might already be dead, and just a ghost of the window left on the desktop.  The shell window seems active, but not much time to look around.  In a few seconds, the host goes into full black screen crash, with a blinking text cursor.  Sometimes, in a few more seconds, the host login windows appears without any additional user actions.  Sometimes, ctrl+alt+del will initiate a reboot.

So, is there anything I can enable ahead of time, to get a log that might be useful for tracking this down?  What data can I collect after host reboot to include here?

I have other fc31 guest vms that are not crashing, so there is some interaction with the running applications.  But a misbehaving application should not crash the VM, and definitely should not crash the host machine.",mMerlin

19413,Silent fail of inotify_add_watch,all,VirtualBox 6.1.4,2020-03-18T10:13:21Z,2020-03-18T10:13:21Z,2020-03-18T10:13:21Z,"To watch new USB devices, ''VBoxSVC'' use ''inotify_add_watch'' on ''/dev/vboxusb''. If ''inotify_add_watch'' fails, USB redirection will silently fail (no log nor warnings).

''inotify_add_watch'' may fail if the limit of watches is already reached. The limit is quite low on a default stable debian install (8192) and several modern text editors use a lot of watches to... watch directories and subdirectories.

Step to reproduce the problem:
1] make sure that VBoxSVC isn't running
2] check that the limit is not too high ''cat /proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_watches'', if it is, just temporarily decrease it: ''echo 1000 | sudo tee /proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_watches''
3] drain all the watches (for example by executing ''inotifywatch -r'' on a folder with a lot of subfolders.
4] run ''VBoxSVC'', you may ''strace'' it to make sure that ''inotify_add_watch'' fails
5] run ''VBoxManage list usbhost''
6] observe that ''inotify_add_watch'' fails in ''VBoxSVC'' and that ''VBoxManage list usbhost'' returns nothing.
7] [optionnal] use this script to check who's using all the watches: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/fatso83/dotfiles/master/utils/scripts/inotify-consumers

''VBoxSVC'' should return an error that ''VBoxManage list usbhost'' and VirtualBox gui client could display to easily diagnose the problem and maybe hint on a solution (kill the process using all the watches or increase the limit).

There may be other use of ''inotify_add_watch'' in the VBox codebase and there may be other code path to check (for example, there is also a restriction on the number of inotify **instances**, cf. ''/proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_instances'', that may cause ''inotify_init'' to fail). ",elvanderb

On all systems, the linux app cheese works properly and displays the video stream from the camera. 

Windows clients have 2 webcams, and I can attach both to a client. The first does not result in a recognised device, the second does, but the video stream shows a blue rectangle. 

The laptop runs intel video and NVidia (MX1000 I think). Makes no difference, same effect. Audio is currently working perfectly, no detectable lag. VM performance is overall good. Windows VM's run with 2 cpu's, 8192MB Ram, virtio NIC and Hyper-V interface. No other issues. 

Under Linux the camera shows as

Both of us are unable to click within the virtualbox manager window, like create a new VM or import or export or access preferences, using wacom tablet (in my case Wacom Intuos Pen Tablet). 

For me up to a few days ago, when I was still running virtualbox 5.2.40 on Ubuntu 19.04 (and before on Ubuntu 18.04), this was not a problem. Upgrading to Ubuntu 20.04 means that python2 is no longer supported (which makes total sense) but now it looks like virtualbox manager has become unusable because it does not seem to register the mouse clicks. 

To clarify, when I hover over items in the virtualbox manager window the buttons seem to respond to the hovering, but when I click nothing happens. Clicking in any other program so far has not resulted into issues like this. Also interestingly I discovered today that when I import (using a regular mouse temporarily plugged in) several VMs that I am able to change the order of the VMs in the virtualbox manager window (sort/group them) but again not able to click them.

A solution is to set ''""Graphics Controller""'' from ''""VBoxSVGA""'' to ''""VBoxVGA""'' and disable 3D acceleration. Then you have to shut down and restart your VM properly (by OS shutdown functionality).

However, ''VBoxVGA'' is not recommended and 3D Acceleration is not available. Should be considered as a bug!

19614,Enabling Page Fusion cause Windows 10 guests to hang random time after booting,Windows,VirtualBox 6.1.8,2020-05-23T00:41:37Z,2020-05-23T00:41:37Z,2020-05-23T00:41:37Z,"I first posted in the [https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=98123&sid=51fc9f959284400beaac6aadba19f088 forums] and didn't get much direction.

Sometime after upgrading to 6.1.x (don't remember the exact version - .2 or .3 or maybe .4 I think) my Windows 10 guests would randomly freeze shortly after booting.  I built a new from DVD/ISO Windows 10 1909 VM and it didn't/wouldn't freeze.  In comparing the output of ""VBoxManage showvminfo"" I noticed that I had different settings for [https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/UserManual.html#guestadd-balloon Memory Balloning] and [https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/UserManual.html#guestadd-pagefusion Page Fusion].

The freezing behavior didn't change with adjustments to the memory balloning settings, but did for page fusion.  If page fusion was enabled on the ""old"" Windows or the ""new"" Windows guest they would freeze.  Disabling page fusion on the guests and they wouldn't freeze.  I could repeat this Page Fusion '''Enabled''' = Freeze, Page Fusion '''Disabled''' = No Freeze.

The guest additions version of the guest matched the host (6.1.8) when I did the final set of testing.

Bug Description:
When Shared Clipboard is enabled, it's possible to copy text from guest to host and vice versa, however when ""particular"" things like URL and other particularly formatted texts are copied (like from Chrome etc) those fail to be converted properly and therefore cannot be pasted to the host. On top of that, this might lead the guest to crash, which of course is bad.

After a recent upgrade from VirtualBox 6.1.40 to 7.0.2 on Arch Linux, all of my pfSense virtual machines hang at ""Configuring WAN interface"" during the boot process. Reverting VirtualBox back to 6.1.40 fixes it.

The pfSense VM (CE 2.6.0) is configured with EFI enabled and the WAN interface is a NAT virtual network adapter with ""virtio-net"". I've tried changing the adapter to either of the Intel PRO/1000 Server options and it does eventually boot after a 5 minute hang at the same point, but it is unable to get an IP and therefore doesn't work either.

I've also tried to create a brand new pfSense VM using the same settings as our currently running ones and while it installs properly, after the reboot it is stuck on ""Default interfaces not found -- Running interface assignment option."". This also works properly in 6.1.40. I've also tried setting the network interface to bridge mode and no change.

Edit: All other VM work properly, including other FreeBSD 13.1 virtual machines but same behavior with FreeBSD 12.3.

All the 3d CAD legacy programs I am trying to work, either default to software openGL or display nothing.

I tried running the openGL diagnostic program called glview from here https://realtech-vr.com/home/glview, it also displays the same behaviour (does not show anything but garbage).

All the legacy programs run fine on the same Windows 7 natively (non virtualised)

Any suggestions for a fix or a meaningful work around? Tnx.

If I set the paravirtualization interface to ""default"" or Hyper-V (which I guess is the default when windows 11 guest type is selected), then the Windows 11 guest hangs quite frequently. In fact, trying to start word is enough to systematically hang the guest OS. If I set the paravirtualization interface to KVM (which I guess is something that Win11 cannot talk to), then I have no hangs.

This means that every time I reboot my machine, VirtualBox refuses to operate until I go back and sign the newly-built kernel modules.

  532 | RT_BF_ASSERT_COMPILE_CHECKS(VMX_BF_EPT_PT_, UINT64_C(0), UINT64_MAX,

The line in hm_vmx.h which is causing this:

RT_BF_ASSERT_COMPILE_CHECKS(VMX_BF_EPT_PT_, UINT64_C(0), UINT64_MAX,
                            (READ, WRITE, EXECUTE, MEMTYPE, IGNORE_PAT, IGN_7, ACCESSED, DIRTY, EXECUTE_USER, IGN_59_11,
                            SUPER_SHW_STACK, IGN_62_61, SUPPRESS_VE));

The cause is that the C preprocessor is replacing READ with '0' (and WRITE with '1') due to the linux kernel header file: tools/virtio/linux/kernel.h

which has (line 29):
/* generic data direction definitions */
#define READ                    0
#define WRITE                   1

I would say this is an unintended side effect and a small rename of the variables in hm_vmx.h would fix this

If I use the above combination I get frequent VM freezes (even if I leave it for hours).  This happens regularly especially  when I launch a browser (both MS edge and firefox exhibited this behaviour). The only way to recover is with a ""power off"" of the VM.

I have read in the forums (second post here: https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=107371) that this happens with VB7 and the solution for it is to enable 3D acceleration in the settings. I do that and the VM stops freezing BUT ...

The UI is almost unusable as it is broken in multiple ways (even when switching transparency off): broken borders, broken backgrounds, flickering, fonts looks rough, buttons disappear, etc etc etc.  For example when I launch MS Office, I get an empty (white) panel and nothing else. This is certainly related to 3D acceleration as when I set a regedit key (DisableHardwareAcceleration to 1) to disable 3D hardware acc. for office 365, this starts working normally.  But the rest of the OS still suffers from the visual glitches.

//Checking the forums, there seems to be several people reporting instances of their '''Windows 11 Guests''' freezing.  I have a situation with '''Linux Guests'''.  Below are some details in case you need a test case.//

I'm experiencing frequent freezes when 3D acceleration is enabled on Linux Guests.  There is no issue with a '''Windows 10 Guest'''.

The current work-around is to disable 3D acceleration.

I captured a core dump of the frozen Guest using '''vboxmanage debugvm dumpvmcore'''.  If there is any value, I can upload it to my G Drive.  It is 460 MB.

== Environment ==

=== Guest

I have tried to create a minimal test case using openSUSE MicroOS (immutable O/S).

Below are some of the highlight settings of the Guest.  However I suspect '''VBox.log''' may only be needed.

* Download latest MicroOS - https://get.opensuse.org/microos/#download
* Set up a new Guest VM:
  * Base memory:  3072 MB (4096 crashes)
  * Processor:  1
  * Storage:  
    * controller > Use Host I/O Cache
    * 30 GB vdi > Solid-state Drive (assuming you're using an SSD)
      * Current allocation is 8.02 GB
  * Display:
    * Video Memory:  128 MB
    * Graphics controller:
      * VMSVGA
      * Enable 3D Acceleration
* Using the MicroOS ISO, create a new Guest
  * Selected local TZ rather than UTC.
  * Select KDE desktop
* On first boot, the Guest will set up bootstrap apps.
* Use '''discover''' to install the '''Brave browser'''.  '''Discover''' is KDE's flatpak manager.  By default, it lives in the systray.  Its icon is a blue shopping bag.  :)
* I did some minor KDE tweaking (e.g. focus-follows-mouse, etc.)  If required, I could upload a tar-ball of the test user's $HOME.

=== Test Case

Using the test case below, the Guest may take upwards of a few hours to freeze.  Sometimes it freezes in a few minutes.

I run it in a '''Virtual Desktop''' and periodically check.

* Run two instances of '''Brave'''
* In each, go to web pages that auto-refresh periodically.  For example:
  * https://edition.cnn.com
  * https://www.theweathernetwork.com/fr/weather/ile-de-france/paris

=== Host

* openSUSE Tumbleweed - rolling distro
* Regularly kept up to date.
* As of this writing, kernel 6.1.8-1
* Using '''Prime offloading'''
  * iGPU - Intel UHD Graphics
  * dGPU - Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060 Max-Q

YES - I am aware that Fedora have HAD a problem with fetching the wrong version - and that's most likely why you don't do it ....... but this is FIXED now.

Fedora now has a new package in all repos, that should fix this problem - it is called kernel-devel-matched

This meta package is used to install matching core and devel packages for a given kernel.

21438,"VirtualBox ""forgetting"" that an instance is running -> data corruption",Linux,VirtualBox-7.0.6,2023-01-28T00:08:07Z,2023-01-28T08:54:30Z,2023-01-28T08:54:30Z,"I have seen this many times.

I'm not sure how to reproduce this, but something must be fundamentally broken if this is can happen, so you should be able to figure this out my looking at the code.

Here is what happens.

I am working with guests.
Suddenly, _something_ happens, which leaves the guest running, but gives VirtualBox the impression that it is not running any more.

So VirtualBox thinks that it's switched off.

This happens with both the GUI and if I use VBoxManager list runningvms.

Since it thinks it's off, clicking on it will start it again.

What happens then is that we get two instances running, with both having read-write access to the same underlying storage devices.

You can how this ends: with tears, blood and of course irrecoverable data corruption. (Two OSs writing to the same file system at the same time...)

This is messed up beyond words.

I am attaching a screenshot, which shows two instances of the UI, running on the same host, with the same user.

One shows the guest on, the other shows it off.

The only difference is that I have launched the other instance of the GUI a bit later, but there was no configuration change. There is no reason why would it show a different status.

You can also see the output of list runningvms on the same screenshot. (Empty.)

Btw the actual guest is only visible on the screen, which is showing another data corruption bug with virtio-scsi, about which I will open a separate bug report.

The host I/O cache is disabled.

Under medium IO load, I started to get I/O errors on the console of the guest within 15 minutes.

I'm attaching the log (which doesn't show any errors as far as I can tell), and a screenshot which shows the guest console.

I am aware that some related bugs were allegedly fixed for 7.0.4, but I'm on 7.0.6, and still see it.

21435,Vboxdrv module triggers IBT protection. VM's fail to start,all,VirtualBox-7.0.6,2023-01-26T15:14:43Z,2023-01-26T15:14:43Z,2023-01-26T15:14:43Z,"This has been a problem for a while: The vboxdrv triggers IBT (indirect branch tracking) protection on modern Intel cpu's. This causes the VM to refuse to load.

Disabling IBT (booting the kernel with `ibt=off`) will make the problem disappear, but the protections are there for a reason. IBT is enabled by default on Arch Linux, but I believe IBT will be enabled by default in the upcoming 6.2 linux kernel release for Intel CPU's from the 11th generation up to the current (13th) gen. More and more CPU's will be affected.

A full log from trying to start a VM is attached. Though it is very short, nothing more happens. Also attached is dmesg output showing the protection being triggered in the kernel when starting a VM.

A bug report was also made filed with the kernel (https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=216102) and in Arch (https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/75481), but the latter suggested to file a bug with Virtualbox, which is what I'm doing now. Please let me know if I can provide more information.

""vitualbox-x.y recommends linux-image"" removed.

1.

This dependency sometimes makes apt resolve conflicts by installing random ""linux-image-*"" packages (which provide ""linux-image"" virtual package).

This mostly includes Linux kernel images dedicated for cloud:
linux-image-*-azure, linux-image-*-gcp, linux-image-*-oracle, linux-image-*-aws

Automatically installing these makes an annoying mess in host's Linux installation,
and may also result in failed upgrades if /boot partition is too small to fit all these kernel images.

2.

At least 1 package providing ""linux-image"" is obviously most likely installed already in any Linux system, so this dependency is quite useless anyway.
