Title: vmx_nm_test in ubuntu_kvm_unit_tests interrupted on X-oracle-4.15 / B-oracle-4.15 / X-KVM / B-KVM Status in ubuntu-kernel-tests: New Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in linux source package in Xenial: New Status in linux source package in Bionic: Fix Released Bug description: [Impact] When running kvm-unit-tests under a guest, it will be paused, requiring a reset. When running the same test on a host (vmx_nm_test), it will fail. [Test case] Grab kvm-unit-tests, build it and run: TESTNAME=vmx TIMEOUT=90s ACCEL= ./x86/run x86/vmx.flat -smp 1 -cpu host,+vmx -append "vmx_nm_test" If done inside a guest, when the host runs the bionic 4.15 kernel, the guest will pause. [Potential regressions] Nested KVM could stop working. Floating point could stop working on KVM guests, though the code that relied on this was already removed from Bionic. ------------------------------ This issue was first spotted on Mar.16 [1] The ubuntu_kvm_unit_tests will be interrupted on X-oracle-4.15 on both VM.Standard2.1 and VM.Standard2.16, this is not a regression since it can be reproduced with 4.15.0-1031-oracle #34~16.04.1: Running '/home/ubuntu/autotest/client/tmp/ubuntu_kvm_unit_tests/src/kvm-unit-tests/tests/vmx_nm_test' BUILD_HEAD=4671e4ba timeout -k 1s --foreground 30 /usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 -nodefaults -device pc-testdev -device isa-debug-exit,iobase=0xf4,iosize=0x4 -vnc none -serial stdio -device pci-testdev -machine accel=kvm -kernel /tmp/tmp.da3iFrsCzC -smp 1 -cpu host,+vmx -append vmx_nm_test # -initrd /tmp/tmp.h2DFw8L0AF enabling apic paging enabled cr0 = 80010011 cr3 = 477000 cr4 = 20 Test suite: vmx_nm_test client_loop: send disconnect: Broken pipe (node disconnected here) Before the test started, this can be found in syslog: Apr 13 06:26:25 selfprovisioned-phlin-kvm-unit kernel: [ 1073.529005] L1TF CPU bug present and SMT on, data leak possible.
