Bug 219556: emulators/virtualbox-ose: VBoxSVC consumes 100% CPU and does not
exit
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D219556



--- Description ---
Since a few days (I believe since the upgrade of mesa to 17.1.0) VBoxSVC
continuously consumes 100% CPU and does not shut down after all sessions ha=
ve
closed.

This happens if any graphical window is used (VirtualBox). If using only
VBoxHeadless, VBoxSvc behaves normally.

Also, this happens on one of two systems only: The affected one has an Intel
CPU and uses an Nvidia graphics card + proprietary driver, whereas the norm=
al
one uses an AMD CPU and displays graphical output over the network (X11
connection).

When exiting VirtualBox via the "exit" menu command, the window vanishes, b=
ut
VBoxSVC continues to run at 100% CPU, and the VirtualBox process remains (at
0%). In this case, VBoxSVC can be killed -1, which will then also terminate
VirtualBox and VBoxXPCOM.

All ports up-to-date as of now.
