https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=196149 Bug ID: 196149 Summary: QEMU causes a host hang / reset on PPC64EL when used in KVM + HV mode (kvm_hv module) Product: Virtualization Version: unspecified Kernel Version: 4.9 Hardware: PPC-64 OS: Linux Tree: Mainline Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P1 Component: kvm Assignee: virtualization_kvm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Reporter: tpearson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Regression: No QEMU causes a host hang / reset on PPC64EL when used in KVM + HV mode (kvm_hv module) on host kernels with a page size of 4k. After a random amount of uptime, starting new QEMU virtual machines will cause the host to experience a soft CPU lockup. Depending on configuration and other random factors the host will either checkstop and reboot, or hang indefinitely. The following stacktrace was pulled from an instance where the host simply hung after starting a fourth virtual machine.
