[SOLVED] Virtualbox (6.1.12-4) when starting VM freezes and locks-up

In a fully upgraded system when virtualbox starts a VM after 1 or 2 seconds the system completely locks-up. Can't even drop in a tty.
There is a similar topic https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=258118 but it is marked as solved and there is a suggestion to start a fresh topic.

The system runs
linux 5.8.1-arch1-1
virtualbox 6.1.12-4
virtualbox-host-modules-arch 6.1.12-9
virtualbox-ext-oracle 6.1.13.139853-1

The same happens with the previous ext additions (6.1.12)

Have you checked your VM logs if there are any errors?

Re: [SOLVED] Virtualbox (6.1.12-4) when starting VM freezes and locks-up

Uninstalling the Extension pack and turning USB to 1.1 from 2 eliminates the problem...
Maybe wait for a fix with an update?

Re: [SOLVED] Virtualbox (6.1.12-4) when starting VM freezes and locks-up

How about enabling USB3 Controller?
I'm only comparing from my system. USB3 enabled with extension installed.
There seems to be new issues with USB in this new kernel so virtualbox is probably affected.

Re: [SOLVED] Virtualbox (6.1.12-4) when starting VM freezes and locks-up

same issue here - VMs do not start.
To solve it is enough (for me) to use USB-1.1 or disable USB at all.
ExtPack 6.1.12r139181 still installed.

What version of the Extension Pack does VirtualBox itself report:

VBoxManage list extpacks

Re: [SOLVED] Virtualbox (6.1.12-4) when starting VM freezes and locks-up

I tried both 6.1.12.139181 and 6.1.13.139853 from the AUR with the similar outcome.
I see that some of us disabling USB 2/3 just works, but for me if the extension pack is installed then the system locks-up.
It doesn't matter if I disabled USB 2/3...

I have the same issue. It was all working fine, I was using virtualbox 6.1.12-3 and virtualbox-host-modules-arch 6.1.12-5 as recommend in another post and today VMs just did not open. I tried updating both packages and the error persists.

It would be good as suggested to pavlosdec to post VM logs. Individuals might have different problems and we can all have a look at the logs together.

Re: [SOLVED] Virtualbox (6.1.12-4) when starting VM freezes and locks-up

Failed to load ring-0 module 'VBoxEhciR0.r0' for device 'usb-xhci'

This seems to be the culprit. Slightly different from pavlosdec which is 'usb-ehci'.
I am suspecting - and this is pure guess - this is a bug in the new kernel which affects some USB hardware devices. I am not experiencing these problems because of a different hardware. See this thread for some discussion regarding this.
pavlosdec is able to continue by running with downgraded USB controller in the VM. I can only suggest experimenting with the current and previous extension packs and trying out different USB controller in the VM. Or disabling the USB controllers in the VM entirely.
Otherwise the solution might be a kernel and virtualbox downgrades.
Also this looks like a good candidate for a bug report. I'm just not sure which package should handle it.

Re: [SOLVED] Virtualbox (6.1.12-4) when starting VM freezes and locks-up

Yes it's probably worth reporting. You really shouldn't be stuck with USB1. We're in 2020!
At the same time, the solution might lie with virtualbox and should be reported there?
Just the same I think it's worth reporting just to make them aware there is a problem.

Another data point for you all, I had the same issue with my VM not starting, I had to discard my saved state, set my USB down to 1 and then I could start the VM.

Definitely a bug here!

For the people pointing out setting the VM to USB 1 works, it doesn't for me. (no extension packs installed)

Re: [SOLVED] Virtualbox (6.1.12-4) when starting VM freezes and locks-up

Similarly, I have just installed Virtualbox, without any extensions, as VMware unable to run any VM after upgrading Linux to 5.8.1. I then experience a complete lock-up during a VM load in Virtualbox.

@d_fajardo, I must be missing something. I'm not able to actually launch the VM. It simply hangs now. Are those logs accessible from outside the VM?

Re: [SOLVED] Virtualbox (6.1.12-4) when starting VM freezes and locks-up

I can confirm I had the same issue with 5.8.1 and VirtualBox on the August 14.

Using current LTS kernel the issue doesn't happen.
