Title:
  console.log grows indefinitely

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Confirmed
Status in OpenStack Security Advisory:
  Won't Fix
Status in libvirt package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in nova package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in qemu-kvm package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  KVM takes everything from stdout and prints it to console.log. This
  does not appear to have a size limit, so if a user (mistakenly or
  otherwise) sends a lot of data to stdout, the console.log file can
  fill the entire disk of the compute node quite quickly.
