It seems the guest was attempting to deliver a page fault exception (0x0e) but encountered an mmio page during delivery (in the IDT, TSS, stack, or page tables). Is this reproducible? If so it's easy to patch kvm to halt in that case and allow examining the guest via qemu. >> > > Have no idea yet why the box was frozen under this case, will try to write a test case, > hope it can help me to find the reason out. > Still did not know why linux kernel triggered it. I have posted a patchset to report an internal error for this case, hoping Fengguang can reproduce it after the patchset and Qemu's dump can help us to find the reason out. I will keep working on it. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
