Title:
5.15.0-1013-oracle: Unable to boot large memory SEV guest without
setting swiotlb parameter.
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
When launching a SEV Ubuntu22.04 guest with e.g. memory > 16876M, Ubuntu
kernel
5.15.0-1013-oracle panics unless swiotlb=262144 is specified on guest kernel
parameters. It seems that the kernel tries to adjust swiotlb buffer size but
can not do that and crashes. With a memory size such as 8G, the guest boots
fine.
