mainlining shenanigans
QEMU keeps a vram reference to the last QXLCursorCmd it received. This QXLCursorCmd command points to a QXLCursor instance (stored in vram too). However, while the QXLCursorCmd memory is pinned, the QXLCursor memory is not. When booting a recent Fedora to its login screen while monitoring the QXLCursorCmd QEMU holds, it's possible to see the QXLCursor memory becoming invalid shortly after boot. Pinning that memory ensures that that QXLCursor memory is not going to be moved by the guest kernel. Moving the pin/unpin to qxl_release_list_add()/qxl_release_free_list() would be a more generic fix. However, doing this quickly exhausts QXL video memory, so more fixing would be needed before this is workable.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
