Bug#786936: xen-hypervisor-4.4-amd64: Upgrade dom0 from wheezy to jessie on Dell R610 results in dom0 unaccessible with xen_netback issue
Package: xen-hypervisor-4.4-amd64 Version: 4.4.1-9 Severity: critical Justification: breaks the whole system Dear Maintainer, After upgrading the R610 server from Debian 7 to Debian 8, the dom0 becomes unresponsive via ssh after an hour or so, although the domUs still remain accessible. Initially we thought it may be a disk space issue on / or /boot so action was taken to increase those petition sizes but it has no effect. We get the following trace in /var/log/syslog: May 26 09:18:59 servername kernel: [31526.937788] BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at c90013a4b158 May 26 09:18:59 servername kernel: [31526.937798] IP: [] xenvif_get_ethtool_stats+0x50/0x80 [xen_netback] May 26 09:18:59 servername kernel: [31526.937807] PGD b243c067 PUD b243d067 PMD 8a56c067 PTE 0 May 26 09:18:59 servername kernel: [31526.937813] Oops: [#1] SMP May 26 09:18:59 servername kernel: [31526.937817] Modules linked in: dm_snapshot dm_bufio binfmt_misc xt_tcpudp xt_physdev iptable_filter ip_tables x_tables xen_netback xen_blkback xen_gntdev xen_evtchn xenfs xen_privcmd nfsd auth_rpcgss oid_registry nfs_acl nfs lockd fscache sunrpc ib_iser rdma_cm iw_cm ib_cm ib_sa ib_mad ib_core ib_addr iscsi_tcp libiscsi_tcp libiscsi scsi_transport_iscsi bridge stp llc nls_utf8 nls_cp437 vfat fat joydev intel_powerclamp coretemp crc32_pclmul ghash_clmulni_intel ttm evdev aesni_intel ipmi_devintf iTCO_wdt iTCO_vendor_support aes_x86_64 drm_kms_helper acpi_power_meter dcdbas lrw gf128mul glue_helper tpm_tis tpm drm i2c_algo_bit ablk_helper processor i2c_core lpc_ich ipmi_si ipmi_msghandler i7core_edac thermal_sys cryptd mfd_core button psmouse pcspkr serio_raw shpchp wmi edac_core loop autofs4 ext4 crc16 mbcache jbd2 dm_mod hid_generic usbhid hid sg sr_mod cdrom ses sd_mod enclosure ata_generic crc32c_intel lpfc crc_t10dif crct10dif_generic ehci_pci uhci_hcd crct10dif_pclmul ata_piix ehci_hcd scsi_transport_fc libata megaraid_sas scsi_tgt usbcore scsi_mod usb_common crct10dif_common bnx2 May 26 09:18:59 servername kernel: [31526.937917] CPU: 0 PID: 1311 Comm: snmpd Not tainted 3.16.0-4-amd64 #1 Debian 3.16.7-ckt9-3~deb8u1 May 26 09:18:59 servername kernel: [31526.937922] Hardware name: Dell Inc.

While we work out a proper fix, since the error appears to be in the ethtool stats gathering code I suspect that there might be a workaround which would be to disable whichever code in dom0 (a monitoring daemon like nagios perhaps?) is calling this path. > May 26 09:18:59 servername kernel: [31526.937807] PGD b243c067 PUD b243d067 > PMD 8a56c067 PTE 0 > May 26 09:18:59 servername kernel: [31526.937813] Oops: [#1] SMP > May 26 09:18:59 servername kernel: [31526.937817] Modules linked in: > dm_snapshot dm_bufio binfmt_misc xt_tcpudp xt_physdev iptable_filter > ip_tables x_tables xen_netback xen_blkback xen_gntdev xen_evtchn xenfs > xen_privcmd nfsd auth_rpcgss oid_registry nfs_acl nfs lockd fscache sunrpc > ib_iser rdma_cm iw_cm ib_cm ib_sa ib_mad ib_core ib_addr iscsi_tcp > libiscsi_tcp libiscsi scsi_transport_iscsi bridge stp llc nls_utf8 nls_cp437 > vfat fat joydev intel_powerclamp coretemp crc32_pclmul ghash_clmulni_intel > ttm evdev aesni_intel ipmi_devintf iTCO_wdt iTCO_vendor_support aes_x86_64 > drm_kms_helper acpi_power_meter dcdbas lrw gf128mul glue_helper tpm_tis tpm > drm i2c_algo_bit ablk_helper processor i2c_core lpc_ich ipmi_si > ipmi_msghandler i7core_edac thermal_sys cryptd mfd_core button psmouse pcspkr > serio_raw shpchp wmi edac_core loop autofs4 ext4 crc16 mbcache jbd2 dm_mod > hid_generic usbhid hid sg sr_mod cdrom ses sd_mod enclosure ata_generic > crc32c_intel lpfc crc_t10dif crct10dif_generic ehci_pci uhci_hcd > crct10dif_pclmul ata_piix ehci_hcd scsi_transport_fc libata megaraid_sas > scsi_tgt usbcore scsi_mod usb_common crct10dif_common bnx2 > May 26 09:18:59 servername kernel: [31526.937917] CPU: 0 PID: 1311 Comm: > snmpd Not tainted 3.16.0-4-amd64 #1 Debian 3.16.7-ckt9-3~deb8u1 > May 26 09:18:59 servername kernel: [31526.937922] Hardware name: Dell Inc. > PowerEdge R610/0F0XJ6, BIOS 6.4.0 07/23/2013 > May 26 09:18:59 servername kernel: [31526.937927] task: 88008a86a250 ti: > 880002b4c000 task.ti: 880002b4c000 > May 26 09:18:59 servername kernel: [31526.937931] RIP: > e030:[] [] > xenvif_get_ethtool_stats+0x50/0x80 [xen_netback] > May 26 09:18:59 servername kernel: [31526.937939] RSP: e02b:880002b4fd70 > EFLAGS: 00010283 > May 26 09:18:59 servername kernel: [31526.937942] RAX: c90013a14f38 RBX: > 0230f940 RCX: 92008ea28c88 > May 26 09:18:59 servername kernel: [31526.937946] RDX: 88008ecadc00 RSI: > c90013a4b190 RDI: 88008da7c000 > May 26 09:18:59 servername kernel: [31526.937949] RBP: 880002b4fe10 R08: > a06827e0 R09: 0006 > May 26 09:18:59 servername kernel: [31526.937953] R10: 0010ebb8 R11: > 0246 R12: 0005 > May 26 09:18:59 servername kernel: [31526.937957] R13: 88008da7c000 R14: > a0682640 R15: 88008ecadc00 > May 26 09:18:59 servername kernel: [31526.937965] FS: 7f93bcc9e700() > GS:8800b2a0() knlGS: > May 26 09:18:59 servername kernel: [31526.937969] CS: e033 DS: ES: > CR0: 8005003b > May 26 09:18:59 servername kernel: [31526.937973] CR2: c90013a4b158 CR3: > 899ff000 CR4: 2660 > May 26 09:18:59 servername kernel: [31526.937977] Stack: > May 26 09:18:59 servername kernel: [31526.937979] 814225f1 > 000400114813 7fff3fff32a8 > May 26 09:18:59 servername kernel: [31526.937985] 880002b4ff18 > 001d3fff32a0 880002b4fde0 814039a6 > May 26 09:18:59 servername kernel: [31526.937990] 0005001d > 8805 81420455 7fff3fff3280 > May 26 09:18:59 servername kernel: [31526.937995] Call Trace: > May 26 09:18:59 servername kernel: [31526.938003] [] ? > dev_ethtool+0x921/0x1ac0 > May 26 09:18:59 servername kernel: [31526.938009] [] ? > ___sys_recvmsg+0x136/0x2a0 > May 26 09:18:59 servername kernel: [31526.938014] [] ? > netdev_run_todo+0x55/0x2f0 > May 26 09:18:59 servername kernel: [31526.938020] [] ? > dev_
