            Bug ID: 219556
           Summary: emulators/virtualbox-ose: VBoxSVC consumes 100% CPU
                    and does not exit
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)
          Assignee: vbox at FreeBSD.org

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 have
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 normal
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, but
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.
