Subject: [PATCH 2/2] numa: prevent usage of -M memory-backend and -numa memdev at the same time
Date: Mon, 11 May 2020 10:11:03 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200511141103.43768-3-imammedo@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200511141103.43768-1-imammedo@redhat.com>
Options -M memory-backend and -numa memdev are mutually exclusive,
and if used together, it might lead to a crash in the worst case.
For example when the same backend is used with these options together:
-m 4G \
-object memory-backend-ram,id=mem0,size=4G \
-M pc,memory-backend=mem0 \
-numa node,memdev=mem0
QEMU will abort with:
exec.c:2006: qemu_ram_set_idstr: Assertion `!new_block->idstr[0]' failed.
and following backtrace:
abort ()
qemu_ram_set_idstr ()
vmstate_register_ram ()
vmstate_register_ram_global ()
machine_consume_memdev ()
numa_init_memdev_container ()
numa_complete_configuration ()
machine_run_board_init ()
add a check to error out in case the user tries to use both options at
the same time.
