[Bug 1398718] Re: Live migration locks up Linux 3.2-based guests

2015-08-12 Thread Matt Mullins
Apologies for the delay.  I can't even seem to reproduce the original
issue on the affected hardware before upgrading, so I can't confirm the
fix in vivid or wily.

I'd be fine with closing this "can (no longer) reproduce"—maybe my
recollection is playing funny tricks on me.

[Bug 1061665] Re: Filter scheduler not respecting the force_hosts hint

2012-10-24 Thread Matt Mullins
I ran into the same problem.  It seems that HostState.passes_filters
gets called with different data in filter_properties than it expects.
The attached patch makes it work, but I doubt it's a completely correct
solution, since I don't handle more than one host in the force_hosts
list.

Then perhaps this is a documentation bug instead.  "--hint force_hosts"
is the currently-documented method in the Compute Administration Manual:

host-to-boot-instances-on.html

[Bug 1291321] Re: migration fails between 12.04 Precise and 14.04 Trusty

2014-06-16 Thread Matt Mullins
This is also blocking a precise -> trusty migration for me.

Would it be possible / feasible to provide a "pc-1.0-precise" machine
type in qemu for trusty and an updated libvirt for precise that allows
you to change the machine attribute on the  element for migration,
so I could specify a migration-compatible domain configuration?

[Bug 1291321] Re: migration fails between 12.04 Precise and 14.04 Trusty

2014-08-10 Thread Matt Mullins
That's awesome.  I just got a chance to test it out, and with a couple
hiccups (below), I seem to have successfully migrated a guest from a
precise host to a new trusty one.

It looks like qemu failed to build in Serge's PPA due to the spice that
also lives in that PPA.  I built the qemu from the source in that PPA,
and it built without modification.

I also got 'pci_add_option_rom: failed to find romfile "pxe-
virtio.rom.12.04"' the first time I did the migration with libvirt; a
symlink seems to have papered over that problem.  libvirt is passing
"virtio-net-pci.romfile=pxe-virtio.rom.12.04", but nothing provides that
file.

[Bug 1398718] [NEW] Live migration locks up Linux 3.2-based guests

2014-12-02 Thread Matt Mullins
Public bug reported:

In the thread at
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.kvm.devel/127042/focus=129294,
three commits were identified to fix live migration for qemu 2.0 (at
least), which I am using on trusty. I would like to get these pulled-in
by the package maintainer.

I have cherry-picked those three commits (with some considerable fix-up
for the first , which may or may not be correct; the others apply
cleanly) and built packages locally.  Installing that on the migration-
receiver seems to fix my guest lockups after live-migrating.  I can
attach the patches I'm using if someone is able to review my fix-ups to
the first one.

My original problem description was:
Somewhere between kernel 3.2 and 3.11 on my VM hosts (yes, I know that narrows
it down a /whole lot/ ...), live migration started killing my Ubuntu precise
(kernel 3.2.x) guests, causing all of their vcpus to go into a busy loop.  Once
(and only once) I've observed the guest eventually becoming responsive again,
with a clock nearly 600 years in the future and a negative uptime.

I haven't been able to dig up any previous threads about this problem, so my
gut instinct is that I've configured something wonky.  Any pointers toward
/what/ I may have done wrong are appreciated.

It only seems to happen if I've given the guests Nehalem-class CPU features.
My longest-running VMs, from before I started passing-through the CPU
capabilities into the guest, seem to migrate without issue.

It also seems to happen reliably when the guest has been running for a while;
it's easily reproducible with guests that have been up ~1 day, and I've
reproduced it in VMs with an uptime of ~20 hours.  I haven't yet figured out a
lower-bound, which makes the testing cycle a little longer for me.

The guests that I reliably reproduce this on are Ubuntu 12.04 guests running
the current 3.2 kernel that Canonical distributes.  Recent Fedora kernels
(3.14+, IIRC) don't seem to busy-spin this way, though I haven't tested this
case exhaustively, and I haven't written down very good notes for the tests I
have done with Fedora.

The hosts are dual-socket Nehalem Xeons (L5520), currently running Ubuntu 14.04
and the associated 3.13 kernel.  I had previously reproduced this with 12.04
running a raring-backport 3.11 kernel as well, but I (seemingly erroneously)
assumed it may have been a qemu userspace discrepancy.
