To reproduce the failure: 1. Set up two guests with a Windows 2016 or 2019 server operating system. 2. Set up the e1000 interface for the guests. 3. Pressurize the network slightly between two guests using the iPerf tool. The network goes down after a few days (2-5days), and the issue is the result of not adhering to the e1000 specification. Refer to the details of the specification at the following link: https://www.intel.com/content/dam/doc/manual/pci-pci-x-family-gbe-controllers-software-dev-manual.pdf Chapter 3.2.6 describe the Receive Descriptor Tail register(RDT) as following: This register holds a value that is an offset from the base, and identifies the location beyond the last descriptor hardware can process. Note that tail should still point to an area in the descriptor ring (somewhere between RDBA and RDBA + RDLEN). This is because tail points to the location where software writes the first new descriptor. This means that if the provider—in this case, QEMU—has not yet loaded the packet, RDT should never point to that place. When implementing the emulation of the e1000 interface, QEMU evaluates if the receive ring buffer is full once the RDT equals the RDH, based on the assumption that guest drivers adhere to this criterion strictly. We applied the following log patch to assist in analyzing the issue and eventually obtained the unexpected information.

But in reality, the state of the ring buffer is empty because the producer only used one descriptor the last time, and the ring buffer was not full after that. To sum up, QEMU claims that the receive ring buffer is full in the aforementioned scenario, placing the packet in the self-maintained queue and unregistering the tap device's readable fd handler and then waiting for the guest to consume the receive ring buffer. This brings down the network since guests have nothing to consume and never update the RDT location. In the above scenario, QEMU assert that the ring is full, put the packet on the queue, unregister the readable fd handler of the tap device, waiting the guest to consume the receive ring. While, guest have nothing to consume on the receive ring and never update the RDT location, this makes the network down. To get around this issue, just mark the overrun if RDH equals RDT at the end of placing the packet on the ring buffer for the producer.
