Description Shaolong Hu 2014-02-28 09:04:18 UTC
Description of problem:
--------------------------
numa emulation won't check duplicate node id.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
-------------------------------------------------------------
qemu-kvm-rhev-1.5.3-50.el7.x86_64


How reproducible:
-------------------
100%


Steps to Reproduce:
----------------------
some negative test for numa:

1.
-numa node,mem=1024,cpus=0,nodeid=0 -numa node,mem=1024,cpus=1-2,nodeid=1 -numa node,mem=1024,cpus=2-3,nodeid=2
QEMU 1.5.3 monitor - type 'help' for more information
(qemu) info numa
3 nodes
node 0 cpus: 0
node 0 size: 1024 MB
node 1 cpus: 1
node 1 size: 1024 MB
node 2 cpus: 2 3
node 2 size: 1024 MB

2.
-numa node,mem=1024,cpus=0,nodeid=0 -numa node,mem=1024,cpus=1-5,nodeid=1 -numa node,mem=1024,cpus=3,nodeid=2
QEMU 1.5.3 monitor - type 'help' for more information
(qemu) info numa
3 nodes
node 0 cpus: 0
node 0 size: 1024 MB
node 1 cpus: 1 2
node 1 size: 1024 MB
node 2 cpus: 3
node 2 size: 1024 MB

3.
-numa node,mem=1024,cpus=0,nodeid=0 -numa node,mem=1024,cpus=1-5,nodeid=1 -numa node,mem=1024,cpus=3,nodeid=1
QEMU 1.5.3 monitor - type 'help' for more information
(qemu) info numa
3 nodes
node 0 cpus: 0
node 0 size: 1024 MB
node 1 cpus: 1 2 3
node 1 size: 1024 MB
node 2 cpus:
node 2 size: 0 MB



1 and 2 is tolerable, 3 may be a little trouble, in this case, guest only see one node(node 0), but this check can be done by high level tools like libvirt, so WONTFIX is also acceptable, that's why priority is low though severity is high.

Comment 4 Eduardo Habkost 2014-07-10 20:01:42 UTC
Moving to qemu-kvm-rhev. Patches were included upstream and will be on QEMU 2.1.0.

Comment 6 langfang 2014-08-27 07:29:04 UTC
Reproduce this bug as follow version:
Host:

qemu-kvm-rhev-1.5.3-60.el7ev.x86_64

Steps
1)Boot guest with numa nodes (nodeid has same number)
 ...-numa node,mem=1024,cpus=0,nodeid=0 -numa node,mem=1024,cpus=1-5,nodeid=1 -numa node,mem=1024,cpus=3,nodeid=1


Results:
guest can boot up

Verify this bus as follow version:

# uname -r
3.10.0-144.el7.x86_64
# rpm -q qemu-kvm-rhev
qemu-kvm-rhev-2.1.0-2.el7.x86_64

Steps as same as reproduce

Results:

qemu-kvm: -numa node,mem=1024,cpus=3,nodeid=1: Duplicate NUMA nodeid: 1
