A live Void Linux ISO ;

Okay.

Indeed. VM core count + 1 such messages in dmesg.

I am using virt-manager, which is why the command line is so long.
And ;
$ qemu-system-ppc64 --version
QEMU emulator version 4.1.1 (qemu-4.1.1-1.fc31)

Workload at snapshot time, the VM was idle, I was compiling software
using a Gentoo ppc64 big endian chroot inside the Void Linux ppc64 big
endian headless live system.
And yes it is easy to reproduce, download that Void Linux ppc64 big
endian ISO, using virt-manager, create a ppc64 vm with a disk, set the
VM to 8192MB of RAM and 8 cores (less RAM and cores might work,
untested) and it should reproduce the issue. It seems that a 1 core,
512MB of RAM VM suffers from no issue with snapshotting.
Thanks!
