Kernel Version: 3.10.0-rc5+ Libvirt Version: 1.0.6 Qemu Version: 1.5.50 Steps to reproduce the issue: 1. Booted the VM with : qemu-system-x86_64 VM1.qcow2 -enable-kvm -watchdog i6300esb -watchdog-action reset -smp 2 -m 2000 2. Edit the /boot/grub/grub/grub.conf with "nmi_watchdog = 1" before the initrd image. 3. Restart the guests, the NMI counter in /proc/interrupts was 0 4. Installed the watchdog rpm and ran chkconfig watchdog on 5. Restart the guest, even then the NMI counter did not increment 6. Changed the /boot/grub/grub/grub.conf with "nmi_watchdog = 1" to /boot/grub/grub/grub.conf with "nmi_watchdog = 2" and restarted the guest. Even then NMI conuter did not increment (The NMI counter was showing 0 all the time for all the above steps). ** Affects: libvirt (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1192847 Title: NMI watchdog fails to increment the NMI counter in /proc/interrupts To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/+bug/1192847/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
