Public bug reported: I am observing random memory corruption in Ubuntu 24.04.1 kdump kernel on Dell R760 servers with IOMMU on. At times, the corruption happens in mpi3mr driver(Broadcom's storage controller hosting the OS) and it caused crashdump collection failure. Sometimes the issue hits in other drivers like tg3.
tg3 traces looks as below: [ 33.189809] DMAR: [DMA Write NO_PASID] Request device [01:00.1] fault addr 0xfffa0000 [fault reason 0x71] SM: Present bit in first-level paging entry is clear [ 33.204800] DMAR: [DMA Write NO_PASID] Request device [01:00.1] fault addr 0xfffa0000 [fault reason 0x71] SM: Present bit in first-level paging entry is clear [ 33.374041] DMAR: DRHD: handling fault status reg 2 [ 33.379349] DMAR: [DMA Write NO_PASID] Request device [01:00.1] fault addr 0xfffa0000 [fault reason 0x71] SM: Present bit in first-level paging entry is clear [ 33.755334] tg3 0000:01:00.1 eno8403: NETDEV WATCHDOG: CPU: 0: transmit queue 0 timed out 5996 ms [ 33.764622] tg3 0000:01:00.1 eno8403: transmit timed out, resetting [ 35.043552] tg3 0000:01:00.1 eno8403: 0x00000000: 0x165f14e4, 0x20100406, 0x02000000, 0x00800000 [ 35.052650] tg3 0000:01:00.1 eno8403: 0x00000010: 0x9590000c, 0x00000000, 0x9591000c, 0x00000000 [ 35.061739] tg3 0000:01:00.1 eno8403: 0x00000020: 0x9592000c, 0x00000000, 0x00000000, 0x0a6b1028 [ 35.070829] tg3 0000:01:00.1 eno8403: 0x00000030: 0xfffc0000, 0x00000048, 0x00000000, 0x000002ff Notes: 1. The issue does not hit when IOMMU is turned off. 2. The issue does not hit with latest upstream kernel 6.12. 3. The issue hits with 6.8 upstream kernel release also. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: bot-comment -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2086188 Title: Ubuntu 24.04.1: memory corruption in kdump kernel To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/2086188/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
