VBoxManage 'start --type headless' cannot be correctly closed by 'controlvm acpipowerbutton'

Reported by: Q2K3 Owned by:
Component: VM control Version: VirtualBox 6.1.26
Keywords: VBoxManage Cc:
Guest type: Linux Host type: Windows

Description

After using:

VBoxManage startvm CentOS7-1 CentOS7-2 CentOS7-3 --type headless

CentOS7-1, 2, 3 are individual vms created by meself and started correctly.

After using:

VBoxManage controlvm CentOS7-3 acpipowerbutton

The vm named CentOS7-3 should have been closed correctly.

But after using:

VBoxManage startvm CentOS7-3 --type headless

It fails and outputs as below:

Waiting for VM "CentOS7-1" to power on...
VBoxManage.exe: error: The VM session was closed before any attempt to power it on
VBoxManage.exe: error: Details: code E_FAIL (0x80004005), component SessionMachine, interface ISession

you can find more detail infos in the topic I posted  https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=103980

What's more, through log file named VBoxHardening.log.I find log file which is closed incorrectly lack two lines outputs comparing to log file which is closed correctly:

3fd0.3fd4: supR3HardNtChildWaitFor[2]: Quitting: ExitCode=0x0 (rcNtWait=0x0, rcNt1=0x0, rcNt2=0x103, rcNt3=0x103, 604653 ms, the end);
3f98.3f9c: supR3HardNtChildWaitFor[1]: Quitting: ExitCode=0x0 (rcNtWait=0x0, rcNt1=0x0, rcNt2=0x103, rcNt3=0x103, 605077 ms, the end);

Hope this additional msg can help pro devs to solve this problems. Thx for devs attention and contributions!

Replying to Q2K3: I think the state awaitsfeedback means waiting for feedback from the reporter, so perhaps you want to change it back. ;)

In the corresponding forum thread, Q2K3 reported that the issue does not occur with VirtualBox 6.1.24, meaning that the issue was introduced between 6.1.24 and 6.1.26.

Additionally, Q2K3 reported that all 3 nested VBoxHeadless processes keep running. A third affected forum user reported that only 1 of the 3 processes is left running.

This issue should be fixed in the VirtualBox test builds 6.1.27r147422 and newer.
