FreeBSD-amd64 fails to start with SMP on quemu-kvm

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

 



Hello,

When i try to run FreeBSD-amd64 on more than 1 vcpu in quemu-kvm (Fedora Core 17) eg. to run FreeBSD-9.0-RELEASE-amd64 with:

qemu-kvm -m 1024m -cpu host -smp 2 -cdrom /storage/iso/FreeBSD-9.0-RELEASE-amd64-dvd1.iso

it freezes KVM with:

KVM internal error. Suberror: 1

so just prior to probing of SMP.

This also applies to FreeBSD-7.3-RELEASE-amd64 and FreeBSD-9.1-RC3-amd64 (other releases not tested).

When quemu-kvm is started without SMP (1 vpcu) amd64 FreeBSD kernel boots correctly. I did not notice this problem (SMP) for the i386 versions (FreeBSD-7.3-RELEASE-i386, FreeBSD-9.0-RELEASE-i386, FreeBSD-9.1-RC3-i386).

power management:

- kernel (from FC17 repo):
3.6.9 (kernel-3.6.9-2.fc17.x86_64)
- quemu version:
qemu-kvm 1.0.1 (qemu-kvm-1.0.1-2.fc17.x86_64)
- neither the -no-kvm-irqchip nor -no-kvm-pit switch helps
- with he -no-kvm switch FreeBSD boots correctly
- linux guest (x86_64 with SMP) works perfectly ok

I suspect that this bug is related in some way with the hardware. I tested the same KVM-host system (exact clone) with the same guest (FreeBSD-amd64) on another machine (i3-2120 workstation) and have not noticed a similar problems witch SMP.

I will be grateful for any hints.
