cpu_set <n+1> online causing a guest to hang.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

Wanted to check about the current status of the cpu hotplug support in KVM 
guests.

Pl. excuse me if the following is a known issue (pl. point me to 
the appropriate status/issue/bug-report if it is). 

I have an RHEL6.2 (x86_64)+ KVM host with a KVM guest running RHEL 6.2.

The guest is up and configured with 8 vCPUs (0-7) 

[root@testvm1 cpu]# ls
cpu0  cpu2  cpu4  cpu6  cpufreq  kernel_max  online    present
cpu1  cpu3  cpu5  cpu7  cpuidle  offline     possible


(I had set the maximum vcpus to 12).

I tried to hotplug add a new cpu and so I tried the following command from my 
host. 

[root@host ~]# virsh qemu-monitor-command testvm1 --hmp cpu_set 8 online


The guest hung and was non responsive. 

Did I miss any step or is some functionality missing?

Any help/pointers would be appreciated. 

Thanks
Vinod
