This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled kvm: Fix irq route entries exceeding KVM_MAX_IRQ_ROUTES to the 3.14-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: kvm-fix-irq-route-entries-exceeding-kvm_max_irq_routes.patch and it can be found in the queue-3.14 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From caf1ff26e1aa178133df68ac3d40815fed2187d9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Xiubo Li <lixiubo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 15 Jun 2016 18:00:33 +0800 Subject: kvm: Fix irq route entries exceeding KVM_MAX_IRQ_ROUTES From: Xiubo Li <lixiubo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit caf1ff26e1aa178133df68ac3d40815fed2187d9 upstream. These days, we experienced one guest crash with 8 cores and 3 disks, with qemu error logs as bellow: qemu-system-x86_64: /build/qemu-2.0.0/kvm-all.c:984: kvm_irqchip_commit_routes: Assertion `ret == 0' failed. And then we found one patch(bdf026317d) in qemu tree, which said could fix this bug. Execute the following script will reproduce the BUG quickly: irq_affinity.sh ======================================================================== vda_irq_num=25 vdb_irq_num=27 while [ 1 ] do for irq in {1,2,4,8,10,20,40,80} do echo $irq > /proc/irq/$vda_irq_num/smp_affinity echo $irq > /proc/irq/$vdb_irq_num/smp_affinity dd if=/dev/vda of=/dev/zero bs=4K count=100 iflag=direct dd if=/dev/vdb of=/dev/zero bs=4K count=100 iflag=direct done done ======================================================================== The following qemu log is added in the qemu code and is displayed when this bug reproduced: kvm_irqchip_commit_routes: max gsi: 1008, nr_allocated_irq_routes: 1024, irq_routes->nr: 1024, gsi_count: 1024. That's to say when irq_routes->nr == 1024, there are 1024 routing entries, but in the kernel code when routes->nr >= 1024, will just return -EINVAL; The nr is the number of the routing entries which is in of [1 ~ KVM_MAX_IRQ_ROUTES], not the index in [0 ~ KVM_MAX_IRQ_ROUTES - 1]. This patch fix the BUG above.
