           Summary: IO_PAGE_FAULT while starting xorg
           Product: Virtualization
           Version: unspecified
    Kernel Version: 3.2.6
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: kvm
        AssignedTo: virtualization_kvm@kernel-bugs.osdl.org
        ReportedBy: fuffi.il.fuffo@gmail.com
        Regression: No


Hi,

I got this error while doing startx with 3.2.6 kernel and I can't start xorg:

[   54.683907] AMD-Vi: Event logged [IO_PAGE_FAULT device=01:00.0
domain=0x0018 address=0x0000000220583200 flags=0x0010]

I saw the same error in this mailing list
(http://www.spinics.net/lists/kvm/msg48472.html) so I thought it was
the right ml for reporting this problem, am I wrong?

I attached the output of dmesg, lspci -vv and dmidecode.

disabling amd_iommu allow X to start but it's only a workaround.

This is the relevant part of my grub.cfg file:

# (0) Arch Linux
menuentry 'Arch Linux' {
 set root='(hd0,1)'; set legacy_hdbias='0'
 legacy_kernel   '/boot/vmlinuz-linux' '/boot/vmlinuz-linux'
'root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/a4259127-650c-4767-af64-9c86cdc1a5e1' 'ro'
'vga=773' 'amd_iommu_dump' '3'
 legacy_initrd '/boot/initramfs-linux.img' '/boot/initramfs-linux.img'

 # (1) Arch Linux
}


Thanks in advance,

EDM.

You are using the closed-source NVidia driver which apparently has a bug. The
driver seems not to use the DMA-API properly and tries to DMA to an invalid
handle.

Please try the open source NVidia drivers or report the problem to NVidia
directly.

I have it too (but using radeon kms):

RHBZ: Bug 827123 - f17 AMD-Vi: Event logged on device device=01:00.0 (it is the
VGA card) fx6100 990fx caicos

In my case, it only happens at POWER-ON, not when doing a RESET.
So to reproduce it one must POWER-CYCLE.

The addresses where the page-fault happens look strange: 0xf00420800.

This address is beyond TOM2 which means it does not point to system RAM. To me
this looks like this happens during firmware load (which explains why it
happens at power-on but not on reset).

I Cc Alex Deucher, maybe he has an idea.

Thanks for the answer.

Check comment #3 from:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42921

A similar motherboard Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3
(mine is sabertooth 990fx)

There the "page faults" are with the NIC.

I booted with iommu=pt kernel parameter and i stopped getting these messages.

I am experimenting with pcie kvm pass-through, so i ended using that parameter.
Sadly the whole host freezes when i power on the guest, but that is outside of
this bug-report.

I don't think that was actually not 100% accurate.

I have this problem as well.  In my case it seems to be a regression.  My
2.6.37-r4 kernel boots properly and X starts without error.

Been trying sense March to get any stable 3.x.x kernel to boot and start X
properly.  I have had no problems getting them to boot but none would allow me
to start X.

Attempting to start X produces these errors in demsg.

Early in the kernel boot process all my kernels were reporting,
Please enable the IOMMU option in the BIOS setup
This costs you 64 MB of RAM
I verified that IOMMU was in fact enabled in my BIOS.  So I am not sure if that
is just a suggestion or that the kernel isn't detecting the IOMMU settings.

After much research I narrowed the problem down to AMD_IOMMU.  I can boot my
3.4.9-kernel, (configured and striped to absolute essentials for testing) and
start X properly only if I boot it with amd_iommu=off.
