Summary: Segfault 284
Initial Comment:
Host
(2) Intel Xeon (E5430) Quad Core Processors (2.66GHz)
16G mem
Host OS: Ubuntu 8.10 (64bit)
kvm-72
libvirt 0.4.4
Guest OS Win2k3 Server (32 bit)
After running for 8 to 48 hours, Win2k3 guest system crashes with no warning.
Syslog shows the following segmentation fault:
Feb 25 16:12:02 host-b kernel: [448190.415857] kvm[25511]: segfault at 284 ip

386f sp 00007fff97fa3a70 error 4 in kvm[400000+19e000]
this error has been confirmed on 2 different machines with exactly the same
setup.
We are running KVM through libvirt with the following xml setup.

I'll start it up in gdb and watch it for the error. I'll post it when (if)
it happens again. My server was up for at least a week before this
occurred, so I may not be able to get it immediately.

Please generate a core dump and post a stack trace:

Sorry about the formatting of the kvm commandline I posted, I have
re-formatted it so that sourceforge does not automagically wrap it:
/usr/bin/kvm -S -M pc -m 1024 -smp 1 -name partridge \
-monitor pty -boot c \
-drive file=/dev/hare/partridge_root,if=ide,index=0,boot=on \
-drive file=/dev/hare/partridge_var,if=ide,index=1 \
-drive file=/dev/hare/partridge_opt,if=ide,index=2 \
-drive file=/dev/hare/partridge_home,if=ide,index=3 \
-net nic,macaddr=00:16:3e:30:99:7c,vlan=0 \
-net tap,fd=17,script=,vlan=0,ifname=vnet3 \
-serial none -parallel none -usb -vnc 127.0.0.1:0

Thanks for the reply.
The libvirt XML I posted calls kvm as follows:
/usr/bin/kvm -S -M pc -m 1024 -smp 1 -name partridge -monitor pty -boot c
\
-drive file=/dev/hare/partridge_root,if=ide,index=0,boot=on \
-drive file=/dev/hare/partridge_var,if=ide,index=1 \
-drive file=/dev/hare/partridge_opt,if=ide,index=2 \
-drive file=/dev/hare/partridge_home,if=ide,index=3 \
-net nic,macaddr=00:16:3e:30:99:7c,vlan=0 -net
tap,fd=17,script=,vlan=0,ifname=vnet3 \
-serial none -parallel none -usb -vnc 127.0.0.1:0

I am running an Ubuntu Hardy guest in KVM-72 (Ubuntu Intrepid host), and
got a similar segfault:
Apr 30 04:16:37 hare kernel: [726803.676199] kvm[4930]: segfault at 284 ip
000000000043386f sp 00007fff1d240dd0 error 4 in kvm[400000+19e000]
My hardware details are as follows:
HP ProLiant ML110 G5
Intel Xeon CPU 3065 2.33GHz (Dual core)
4GB RAM
I have four guests on the system, all Ubuntu Hardy. Only one of these
appears to have crashed. It is allocated one VCPU and 1024 MB of RAM.
The others are:
* 2 VCPUs & 1024MB RAM
* 2 VCPUs & 256MB RAM
* 1 VCPU & 256MB RAM
Additionally, I am also using libvirt. My (crashed) domain's XML looks
like this:
<domain type='kvm'>
<name>partridge</name>
<uuid>4f3bae26-359b-f633-9476-9d95fc2160b0</uuid>

<input type='mouse' bus='ps2'/>

Please let me know if I can provide more information on this. I will
likely upgrade to Ubuntu Jaunty this week (and with it KVM-84).

I just updated one of our machines with KVM-84 and I am getting the exact
same segfault as reported above. This is cricital. We are trying to run a
win2k3 server with exchange and it keeps crashing.
