What's the libvirt behavior when a guest goes to vm_stop?  My only

manually stop it and restart it to continue.  Thanks,

That was ignorance on my part on the expected behavior of vm_stop(). 
So what you are suggesting is to stop the guest displaying an appropriate 
error/next-steps message and have the users do any 
data-collection/investigation 
and then manually kill the guest, if they so desire. Right ?

Sounds reasonable. As long as the guest is not touching the device, it should 
be okay.
Alex, Any comments ?

Thanks

What makes you think it hang? It stopped, precisely what it should do if
you call vm_stop(). Now it is possible for vm user to investigate what
happened and even salvage some data from guest memory.

I had used vm_stop(RUN_STATE_SHUTDOWN) earlier in my code. But while testing, 
guest ended up in a hang rather than exiting. There seems to some cleanup work 
which is being done as part of vm_stop. In our case, we wanted the guest to 
exit immediately. So use of hw_error() seemed appropriate.

Thoughts ?

I am thinking vm_stop(). Stopping SMP guest (and UP too in fact)
involves sending IPIs to other cpus running guest's vcpus. Both exit()
and vm_stop() will do it, but former is implicitly in the kernel and
later is explicitly in QEMU.

The thinking was that since this is a hardware error, we would want to stop the 
guest at the earliest. The hw_error() routine which aborts the qemu process was 
suggested by Alex and that seemed appropriate. Earlier I was using 
qemu_system_shutdown_request().  Any suggestions ?

We should know this already though, right?  Where's our call to
VFIO_DEVICE_GET_IRQ_INFO for this index?  I'd expect that should happen
in vfio_get_device where it can set some flag true, then this function
would exit immediately if that flag isn't set.  Then by the time we're
here, it's a legitimate error_report if we think this should work and
doesn't.

This is also a legitimate error_report.  In general, if kernel vfio-pci
does or doesn't support a non-critical feature, that's a DPRINTF.  If
it's told us the feature is there and something d

Usually this is not OK, but I guess this is not guest triggerable.

[PATCH v3 3/3] QEMU-AER: Qemu changes to support AER for VFIO-PCI devices

2013-02-03 Thread Pandarathil, Vijaymohan R
- Create eventfd per vfio device assigned to a guest and register an
  event handler

- This fd is passed to the vfio_pci driver through the SET_IRQ ioctl

- When the device encounters an error, the eventfd is signalled
  and the qemu eventfd handler gets invoked.

- In the handler decide what action to take. Current action taken
  is to terminate the guest.
