Up to date Arch Linux on host and guest. linux 5.2.11. QEMU 4.1.0. Full command line at bottom.
Host gives QEMU two thin LVM volumes. The first is the root filesystem, and the second is for heavy I/O, on a Samsung 970 Evo 1TB.
When maxing out the I/O on the second virtual block device using virtio-blk, I often get a "lockup" in about an hour or two. From the advise of iggy in IRC, I switched over to virtio-scsi. It ran perfectly for a few days, but then "locked up" in the same way.
By "lockup", I mean writes to the second virtual block device permanently hang. I can read files from it, but even "touch foo" never times out, cannot be "kill -9"'ed, and is stuck in uninterruptible sleep.
When this happens, writes to the first virtual block device with the root filesystem are fine, so the O/S itself remains responsive.
The second virtual block device uses BTRFS. But, I have also tried XFS and reproduced the issue.
In guest, when this starts, it starts logging "task X blocked for more than Y seconds". Below is an example of one of these. At this point, anything that is or does in the future write to this block device gets stuck in uninterruptible sleep.

In guest, there are no other dmesg/journalctl entries other than "task...blocked".
On host, there are no dmesg/journalctl entries whatsoever. Everything else in host continues to work fine, including other QEMU VM's on the same underlying SSD (but obviously different lvm volumes.)
I understand there might not be enough to go on here, and I also understand it's possible this isn't a QEMU bug. Happy to run given commands or patches to help diagnose what's going on here.
I'm now running a custom compiled QEMU 4.1.0, with debug symbols, so I can get a meaningful backtrace from the host point of view.

When writes are hanging, on host, I can connect to the monitor. Running "info block" shows nothing unusual.
