In this year I am always experiencing crashes of domU only. dom0 was always stable. But last year, I hunted a very serious problem which causes nasty hangs/crashes in dom0 (which crashes domU as a consequence). See this mailing list post: http://lists.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2010-09/msg00556.html In my tests it clearly shows that if you have a CPU without ARAT and you don't have the patch from my post, your Xen 4.0.1 or 4.1.1 will crash under load and/or after a while.

We never had issues on the Xeon systems, so we may actually be suffering from the ARAT issue. Are you still using the patch you linked to in a production environment? I wonder why a cleaned up patch like that never made it into core. I'm going to do some testing (may take a while). Thanks, Roderick ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 24+ messages in thread

Just curious. I have seen other 'weird' performance issues between machines using the same hardware. Some CPU intensive algorithm could be twice as slow running on Dom0 compared to the same kernel without Xen. On other identical systems I didn't see that issue. I didn't have time to investigate, but I felt there may have been BIOS setting differences. > > >> I'm going to do some testing (may take a while). > > > Please let me know.

This looks quite similar to one particular bug where > the vectors were not migrated properly. I haven't tried Xen 4.1.2 yet. We likely had the issue on Xen 4.0.1 though our data is not conclusive. Was the Xen 4.1.2 bug you refer to also around in Xen 4.0.1? I'm still preparing our tests. Is there any special logging option which would be useful to log anything? All systems are now setup with serial consoles and we log Xen and Dom0 to there. Roderick ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 24+ messages in thread

The system in question is using PCI passthrough. On the serial console I remember seeing that the PCI device got unmapped from DomU and got mapped again in Dom0. The serial console log still had a lot of information about this DomU which I guess was going down. I guess it wasn't fully down yet.

I guess it wasn't fully down yet. One of the debug informations that gets printed with '*' is the guest PCI passthrough data. Such as which IRQ, BAR, etc are mapped in. Did any of those exist? My original thought of what is going on is that the interrupts either stopped completly working (does not look like - it looks like the interrupts are firring and the event channels that are bound to it have the bits set saying - hey I am pending). Oddly there are bunch of MSI ones that are masked which usually means they are disabled. Then there is the affinity:00000000,00000000,00000000,00000001 vec:c8 type=IO-APIC-level status=00000010 in-flight=0 domain-list=0: 16(-S--),1201: 16(--M-), affinity:00000000,00000000,00000000,00000010 vec:65 type=PCI-MSI status=00000010 in-flight=0 domain-list=1201: 55(--M-), The guest has masked both interrupts - so it is off//dying, but somehow the unmapping has not happend. In other words, what you just analyzed and found out. Sadly, there is no smoking gun.. So a couple of things that I would do is to ensure that the Xen hypervisor boots with 'sync_console console_to_ring' and when this crash happens see if I can get a stack trace from both the Xen hypervisor (there are some debug parameters to get that - I think it is 'r'?), and also from the Linux kernel. But also see if the problem disappears with the latest 4.1.x hypervisor. And it might also be worth upgrading the dom0 to a 3.0. Hmm, it would be very interesting to see where the dom0 _is_ stuck at. The hypervisor is running fine so it all points to dom0 crashing somewhere.. Can you make sure that dom0 runs with 'debug loglevel=8' as well. That should give some wealth of information when/if a crash happens. Oh, and try to pass in Ctrl-Alt-SysRQ-t (on serial concentrators I think you just need to type 'break' on the telnet line)and then t. But I am not entirely sure about it - might want to double check Google and see how to enable Alt-SysRQ. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 24+ messages in thread

It worked fine on some of my other machines (sysrq= 'shift-control-o'), but not on this broken box. Apparently the kernel is stuck in some place where SysRq doesn't work. I'm going to retest with the relevant logging turned on. I also upgraded to the latest 2.6.32 kernel (.48 I think). I will also upgrade to the latest 4.1.x build from the mercurial repository. It will take a few days before I get crash. Thanks so far! Roderick ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 24+ messages in thread

This morning I had another of my stress machines with the problem. I never had it on this problem before and it didn't have any of the new logging / software updates yet. The system was in the same state as the other machine which I reported about before. I tried SysRq stuff and other things. While I was about to reboot the system, a login prompt appeared again on the VGA. I don't know whether any of the stuff I did triggered it or not. Anyway it means Linux is not really dead. I tried logging, but I don't even see characters appearing. The system feels to be very, very, very slow. The other tests are still running.

As in some code starts running really, really slowly. Local TCP 'heartbeat' like mechanism from Dom0 to a DomU timing out. Code which should execute quickly becoming orders of magnitude slower for no obvious reason. Typically we see evidence of this in logging. I felt there was a connection between this slowness and the 'unresponsive Dom0' but I haven't been able to confirm this. Normally we see weird things in our logs, but on the unresponsive systems I didn't see anything strange in the logs yet. Most likely the logs weren't synced to disk yet. After more investigation it seems that in my case all issues, seem to happen after the DomU is up and we somehow 'start' using it. During startup of our own software, both DomU and Dom0 would at least see a spike in cpu/disk activity before things settle down a bit. My feeling is (based on some logs) that this is when Dom0 sometimes becomes unresponsive. I'm still running tests on a number of machines, but it takes ages to get results.

To explain the setup, I'm running tests across a couple of similar machines. On some of the machines I updated to latest 2.6.32.x and Xen 4.1.x (and I upgrade every machine which goes down). The machine which just went down wasn't using the latest versions yet, but some more logging was enabled in 'dmesg'. This box still had Xen 4.1.2 and 2.6.32.37. I'm not sure if the logging is too useful, yet but it may be of some use. The log output is mostly from the serial console. I looked at some log files on disks. Some files give clues, but some important log files didn't get synced to disk before bad things happened. The last timestamp I was able to find was at '16:13:55' which some of our own software wrote some line to its logs. The few log files which got synced to disk tell that the VM started around 16:13:02 which matches PCIe device ownership to the VM: (XEN) [2011-12-10 16:13:03] [VT-D]iommu.c:1501: d0:PCIe: unmap bdf = 3:0.0 (XEN) [2011-12-10 16:13:03] [VT-D]iommu.c:1374: d1109:PCIe: map bdf = 3:0.0 (XEN) [2011-12-10 16:13:03] [VT-D]io.c:304: d1109: bind: m_gsi=55 g_gsi=32 device=4 intx=0 (XEN) [2011-12-10 16:13:23] [VT-D]io.c:328: d1109: unbind: m_gsi=55 g_gsi=32 device=4 intx=0 (XEN) [2011-12-10 16:13:23] [VT-D]io.c:386: d1109 unmap: m_irq=55 device=4 intx=0 (XEN) [2011-12-10 16:13:23] [VT-D]io.c:304: d1109: bind: m_gsi=16 g_gsi=32 device=4 intx=0 We are using the tapdisk driver for disk 'xvdc' which is referred to as 'tdc' I guess.

Perhaps you can run the C code (attached) on the serial console and see _what_ (or perhaps _when_) the interrupts stops (and also verify that the timeouts and 'frozen' happen due to no interrupts being received). There are a couple of bugs that were discovered in the interrupt code (that had been there since 2.6.27!) that went to the stable tree - so they should been backported to 2.6.32.x tree - but I honestly don't recall the names.

Let me first summarize what tests were running. In total I had 4 machines. All systems had at least Xen 4.1.2 + Linux 2.6.32.48 (and one had a Xen 4.1.3 snapshot). I divided the systems into 2 groups and each group ran a different test. There are 2 differencess between the groups: 1) one was the use of blktap vs not using blktap. The main reason for having the blktap systems in even though it adds noise, is that it kept some of tests close to what they previously were. 2) the non-blktap systems used a different cpu pinning configuration. Previously Dom0 was using 0-3 and DomU 4-7, but due to hyperthreading both VMs used the same cores (0 and 4 are on the same physical core). Now to the initial results. - so far each machine has been up for 10 days. - one machine failed early on due to a PCI device assignment issue. I suspect that at some point due to a race condition, ownership of the PCI device wasn't transferred correctly back from DomU to Dom0 on VM shutdown. Xm and Xl respectively fail with 'Error: failed to assign device 03:00.0: maybe it has already been assigned to other domain, or maybe it doesn't exist.' From a quick glance at the logs it looks like on shutdown of a previous VM, the 'unmap bdf' never happened. Not sure why, but I guess due to a potential toolchain bug. - One of the non-blktap machines had a kernel Oops. It happened on VM shutdown and I wouldn't be surprised if it was similar to the crashes we wanted to debug. The system is in a usable state though, but this may have been due to the use of Linux 2.6.32.48 or the different CPU pinning configuration.

I have some experience with gnttab/gntdev, but don't > know the inner parts of it very well. It certainly looks that way. Or rather that we hit a race - what mmu_notifier_unregister tried to call was already de-allocated. [edit: Perhaps this is related to a TLB flush fix: 7899891c7d161752f29abcc9bc0a9c6c3a3af26c xen mmu: fix a race window causing leave_mm BUG()] That would explain the hang you got. The qemu-dm is stuck waiting for gntdev to respond (you should be able to verify this by attaching gdb to qemu-dm and seeing the backtrace - it should be stuck at some ioctl call). And the kernel sees that this particular process is not doing anything. Also we have some gntdev in a bad state (but that should be OK to the other processes) - so I am not sure how that "hangs" your box. The interrupts being disabled does not seem to occur with this crash? Does read_interrupts code you are running is still spewing data right? Or does it stop as well? But lets fix one thing at a time. Looking at the code in 2.6.32 it is the version that went upstream as git commit ab31523c2fcac557226bac72cbdf5fafe01f9a26 and it has not had any of the features/bug-fixes that went with the upstream version: ab31523 xen/gntdev: allow usermode to map granted pages 8d3eaea xen/gntdev: add VM_PFNMAP to vma 9329e76 xen: gntdev: move use of GNTMAP_contains_pte next to the map_op ba5d101 xen/gntdev: stop using "token" argument f0a70c8 xen/gntdev: Fix circular locking dependency a12b4eb xen gntdev: use gnttab_map_refs and gnttab_unmap_refs ef91082 xen-gntdev: Change page limit to be global instead of per-open a879211 xen-gntdev: Use find_vma rather than iterating our vma list manually 68b025c xen-gntdev: Add reference counting to maps aab8f11 xen-gntdev: Support mapping in HVM domains bdc612d xen/gntalloc,gntdev: Add unmap notify ioctl 90b6f30 xen-gntdev: Fix memory leak when mmap fails 0ea22f0 xen-gntdev: Fix unmap notify on PV domains 84e4075 xen-gntdev: Use map->vma for checking map validity b57c186 xen-gntdev: Avoid unmapping ranges twice 12996fc xen-gntdev: Avoid double-mapping memory 9960be9 xen-gntdev: prevent using UNMAP_NOTIFY_CLEAR_BYTE on read-only mappings 77c35ac xen-gntdev: Fix incorrect use of zero handle f4ee4af xen-gntdev: Add cast to pointer 38eaeb0 xen: gntdev: fix build warning d79647a xen/gntdev,gntalloc: Remove unneeded VM flags ca47cea xen-gntdev: Use ballooned pages for grant mappings 12f0258 xen-gntdev: return -EFAULT on copy_to_user failure a93e20a xen-gntdev: unlock on error path in gntdev_mmap() The big question is whether the bug you are hitting is fixed by one of those git commits or that an unrelated fix (like the vmalloc_sync_all or the kmap_atomic one) which are: 461ae488ecb125b140d7ea29ceeedbcce9327003 mm: sync vmalloc address space page tables in alloc_vm_area( 2cd1c8d4dc7ecca9e9431e2dabe41ae9c7d89e51 x86/paravirt: PTE updates in k(un)map_atomic need to be synchronous, regardless of lazy_mmu mode But the errors that one gets without those two git commits is much different from what you get. So I doubt it is one of those. The CPU time going backwards is disturbing. It does imply that the Xen hypervisor has stopped updating the timer information. Or maybe it has not, but the gntdev has crashed and left all the interrupts disabled. So three questions: 1). Is the read_intr printing any data after the crash? 2). If you attach gdb to qemu-dm can you see where it is stuck at? 3). Is the console activate at all? If not, can you SSH in (some network cards switch to polling so you can still login in a machine even if the interrupts are turned off - the atl1c something can do it and I think the r8169 as well, but not sure). 4). If you had configured your dom0 console to use the serial console instead of going through the Xen hypervisor console (so console=ttyS0 on Linux, and no com1=XXX and console=com1 on Xen hypervisor line), could you get a back-track of where the Linux kernel is at using Alt-sysRq?

I tried to get some Alt-sysRq output just now. After two tries, the kernel wasn't too happy with me and died for good. I hope the limited information is of some use.

What I was wondering about is 'gntdev_release'. static int gntdev_release(struct inode *inode, struct file *flip) { struct gntdev_priv *priv =3D flip->private_data; .. spin_lock(&priv->lock); <do cleanup> spin_unlock(&priv->lock); mmu_notifier_unregister(..); kfree(priv); return 0; } I don't know enough about the file descriptor code in Linux. What happens if multiple applications (or threads) open gntdev, do they get the same "flip"? If they do then it looks like there can be a race if two threads call this code close to each other. I remember there being some ref counting mechanism on file descriptors, so I guess this is not the problem.

Just coming back from holidays. > One of the 'blktap' machines is still running tests. It is running Linux 2.6.32.48 and Xen 4.1.3-rc1. By now it has probably ran a 5000 VMs and it has been up for about 20 days. Before it wouldn't survive ~1000 VMs and 5 days. It would then get into that very, very slow state. My feeling is that Linux 2.6.32.48 had some fixes which the problems I was having. Before I ran Xen 4.1.3-rc1 in combination with Linux 2.6.32.37 on it and it had the slowness problem. It would be nice if we can get that other bug fixed as well. It could be around in 3.x kernels as well. I would love to move to Linux 3.2, but it requires a lot of testing which will take 1-2 months. At least 2.6.32.48 feels more stable and we may be able to fix a few more bugs in it. Thanks for your help! Roderick ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 24+ messages in thread
