bhyve: corrupting zfs pools?

2015-06-02 Thread Andriy Gapon

I am doing a simple experiment.

I get FreeBSD image from here:
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/snapshots/ISO-IMAGES/11.0/FreeBSD-11.0-CURRENT-amd64-r283577-20150526-memstick.img.xz

Then I run in bhyve with two additional "disks" created with truncate -s 4g:
$ bhyveload -m 1G -d
~/tmp/FreeBSD-11.0-CURRENT-amd64-r283577-20150526-memstick.img test
$ bhyve -A -HP -s 0:0,hostbridge -s 1,lpc -s 2:0,virtio-net,tap0 -s
3:0,virtio-blk,/home/avg/tmp/FreeBSD-11.0-CURRENT-amd64-r283577-20150526-memstick.img
-s 3:1,virtio-blk,/tmp/l2arc-test/hdd1,sectorsize=512/4096 -s
3:2,virtio-blk,/tmp/l2arc-test/hdd2,sectorsize=512/4096 -l com1,stdio -l
com2,/dev/nmdm0A -c 2 -m 1g test

Note sectorsize=512/4096 options.  Not sure if it's them that cause the trouble.

Then, in the VM:
$ zpool create l2arc-test mirror /dev/vtbd1 /dev/vtbd2
$ zfs create -p l2arc-test/ROOT/initial
$ tar -c --one-file-system -f - / | tar -x -C /l2arc-test/ROOT/initial -f -

Afterwards, zpool status -v reports no problem.
But then I run zpool scrub and get the following in the end:
$ zpool status -v
  pool: l2arc-test
 state: ONLINE
status: One or more devices has experienced an error resulting in data
corruption.  Applications may be affected.
action: Restore the file in question if possible.  Otherwise restore the
entire pool from backup.

The same issue is reproducible with ahci-hd.

My host system is a recent amd64 CURRENT as well.  The hardware platform is AMD.

bhyve: bhyveload, bhyve, bhyvectl --destroy

2015-06-02 Thread Andriy Gapon

I am very new to bhyve, so sorry if I am asking something silly or obvious.
I am using bhyve to speed up my testing and it seems that each time I need to
restart a VM I need to go through the cycle of destroying it with bhyvectl
--destroy, then re-loading a kernel with bhyveload and then actually booting the
VM with bhyve.  It seems that I have to do this even if I don't change th kernel
between reboots.  My first naive impression was that the point of bhyveload was
to load the kernel once.  Seems it ain't so?

Hi Andriy,

I am using bhyve to speed up my testing and it seems that each time I need to

 bhyveload does the job of what BIOS/boot0/1/2/loader would do on real 
h/w, so it has to be executed each time on restart.


 One optimization to the cycle you mentioned is that bhyvectl --destroy 
only has to be done when the VM is no longer needed i.e you can loop 
with bhyveload/bhyve.


later,

Peter.

Are you running -CURRENT, 10-STABLE, or 10.1?

I think there was talk recently of removing the requirement to destroy
the VM before running bhyveload again.

I think there was talk recently of removing the requirement to destroy

 That's been the case in 10.1/STABLE and CURRENT for quite a while (the 
original change was r267216).

I see now.  Thank you very much!

BTW, and probably you are already aware of this, the documentation could use
some work :-)  I noticed at least the following:
- bhyvectl is not documented
- bhyve(8) and bhyveload(8) refer to vmm(4), which does not exist
- bhyveload(8) does not mention that -d can be used multiple times
- bhyve(8) has at least one incorrect reference to bhyveload(*4*)
- bhyve(8) mentions vmnet - does that exist?

But these are very minor things. bhyve rules :)

vmnet does exist, it is a type of tap, I'll get it hooked up as an alias 
to the tap man page.

I used the following monstrous command line to reproduce the test in qemu:
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -smp 2 -m 1024 -drive
file=/tmp/livecd2/R2.img,format=raw,if=none,id=bootd -device
virtio-blk-pci,drive=bootd -drive
file=/tmp/l2arc-test/hdd1,if=none,id=hdd1,format=raw -device
virtio-blk-pci,drive=hdd1,logical_block_size=4096 -drive
file=/tmp/l2arc-test/hdd2,id=hdd2,if=none,format=raw -device
virtio-blk-pci,drive=hdd2,logical_block_size=4096 -drive
file=/tmp/l2arc-test/ssd,id=ssd,if=none,format=raw -device
virtio-blk-pci,drive=ssd,logical_block_size=4096 ...

And several other variations of logical_block_size and physical_block_size.
The tests a re very slow, but there are no checksum errors.

So, I suspect guest memory corruption caused by bhyve.  Perhaps the problem is
indeed specific to AMD-V.

Hmm...  I'm not seeing that here...  I just scp a new kernel into the
vm, install it, and run shutdown -r now which drops bhyve back to
loader, and loads the new kernel... I've been doing this quite
successfully over the last few months...

I am running a month old HEAD though...

I guess you are running bhyve through the shell script vmrun.sh?

Perhaps, but I wasn't able to repro this. I tried your recipe to repro
on two systems running -current at r283917.

- Intel Sandybridge server: Xeon E52650  with 8 cores/16 threads and 64GB memory
  - hdd1/hdd2 on UFS
  - hdd1/hdd2 on ZFS

- AMD Opteron server: Opteron 6230 with 8 cores and 16GB memory
  - hdd1/hdd2 on UFS

Can you provide some more details about your setup? I can then try to
repro on a system similar to your setup.

- uname -a
- sysctl hw.model
- sysctl hw.ncpu
- sysctl hw.physmem
- sysctl hw.vmm
- host filesystem underlying hdd1 and hdd2

Correct:
sh /usr/share/examples/bhyve/vmrun.sh -g 6444 -d mach10s.img -t tap0

It's nice.. shutdown -r now and shutdown -p now both work exactly as
you'd expect them to... :)

I am very new to bhyve, so sorry if I am asking something silly or obvious.
I am using bhyve to speed up my testing and it seems that each time I need to
restart a VM I need to go through the cycle of destroying it with bhyvectl
--destroy, then re-loading a kernel with bhyveload and then actually booting the
VM with bhyve.  It seems that I have to do this even if I don't change th kernel
between reboots.  My first naive impression was that the point of bhyveload was
to load the kernel once.  Seems it ain't so?


Hmm...  I'm not seeing that here...  I just scp a new kernel into the
vm, install it, and run shutdown -r now which drops bhyve back to
loader, and loads the new kernel... I've been doing this quite
successfully over the last few months...

I am running a month old HEAD though...


I guess you are running bhyve through the shell script vmrun.sh?
I am doing everything by hand.


Correct:
sh /usr/share/examples/bhyve/vmrun.sh -g 6444 -d mach10s.img -t tap0

It's nice.. shutdown -r now and shutdown -p now both work exactly as
you'd expect them to... :)



yes, vmrun.sh puts bhyve in a while loop.
