Subject: [Bug 209333] New: VM not starting anymore with 5.8.8 - lots of page faults
Date: Sun, 20 Sep 2020 08:37:16 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <bug-209333-28872@https.bugzilla.kernel.org/> (raw)

            Bug ID: 209333
           Summary: VM not starting anymore with 5.8.8 - lots of page
                    faults
           Product: Virtualization
           Version: unspecified
    Kernel Version: 5.8.8
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: kvm
          Assignee: virtualization_kvm@kernel-bugs.osdl.org
          Reporter: kernel@martin.schrodt.org
        Regression: No

Host system is a Threadripper 1920x on a X399 Motherboard.
I have a VM here, that I pass through a Samsung 960 EVO SSD. 

> 08:00.0 Non-Volatile memory controller: Samsung Electronics Co Ltd NVMe SSD
> Controller SM961/PM961

The VM starts up and works fine with Kernel 5.8.7, and when I start the VM with
a 5.8.8 kernel, libvirt/QEMU say the VM is started, but it doesn't come up, and
I see lots and lots of these in dmesg:

> AMD-Vi: Event logged [IO_PAGE_FAULT device=08:00.0 domain=0x002c
> address=0xfffffffdf8000000 flags=0x0008]

Now, one thing to mention is that the VM uses AMD AVIC to directly deliver
interrupts to the VM.

There are 2 IOMMU related changes in the 5.8.8 changelog that seem likely for
the layman that I am, both by Suravee Suthikulpanit from AMD:

iommu/amd: Use cmpxchg_double() when updating 128-bit IRTE
iommu/amd: Restore IRTE.RemapEn bit after programming IRTE

I observe the same behaviour with 5.8.10.

Happy to provide more info if needed!
