thanks for the detailed report, we will look into that.

Just to be sure, when going back in time, what is the latest upstream
version where
this system/config works okay? is that 4.1 or later?

4.1 is good, 4.2 is not.




To reproduce it:

1. boot latest upstream kernel (v4.2-rc8 sha1 4941b8f, ppc64le)

2. Run:
sudo rmmod mlx4_en mlx4_ib mlx4_core
sudo modprobe mlx4_core num_vfs=4 probe_vf=4 port_type_array=2,2 debug_level=1

3. Run QEMU (just to give a complete picture):
/home/aik/qemu-system-ppc64 -enable-kvm -m 2048 -machine pseries \
-nodefaults \
-chardev stdio,id=id0,signal=off,mux=on \
-device spapr-vty,id=id1,chardev=id0,reg=0x71000100 \
-mon id=id2,chardev=id0,mode=readline -nographic -vga none \
-initrd dhclient.cpio -kernel vml400bedbg \
-device vfio-pci,id=id3,host=0003:03:00.1
What guest is used does not matter at all.

4. Wait till guest boots and then run:
dhclient
This assigns IPs to both interfaces just fine. This is essential -
if interface was not brought up since guest started, the bug does not appear.
If interface was up and then down, this still causes the problem
(less likely though).

5. Run in the guest: shutdown -h 0
Guest prints:
mlx4_en: eth0: Close port called
mlx4_en: eth1: Close port called
mlx4_core 0000:00:00.0: mlx4_shutdown was called
And then the host hangs. After 10-30 seconds the host console prints:
NMI watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 22s! [qemu-system-ppc:5095]
OR
INFO: rcu_sched detected stalls on CPUs/tasks:
or some other random stuff but always related to some sort of lockup.

i.e. may or may not mention mlx4.
The issue may not happen on a first try but maximum on the second.

so when you revert commit 68230242cdb on the host all works just fine?
what guest driver are you running?

To be precise, I did checkout 68230242cdb, checked that it does not work, then reverted 68230242cdb right there and checked that it works. I did not try reverting later revisions yet.

My guest kernel in this test has tag v4.0. I get the same effect with some 3.18 from Ubuntu 14.04 LTS so the guest kernel version does not make a difference afaict.


This needs a fix, I don't think the right thing to do is just go and
revert the commit, if the right fix misses 4.2 we will get it there
through -stable

v4.2 was just released :)
