To test this, we can use virtio-rng trace events. The trace events are not yet upstream, but I have posted a patch to do that. The trace events can be backported as part of this bug. Before this bug is fixed, the trace events will show the timer firing often in the function virtio_rng_process(), with a trace event like virtio_rng_requested_size rng 0x7f984c218758: 0 bytes requested, 4294967295 bytes quota left After the fix, such 0 bytes requested trace events should not occur. Fixed in upstream version 2.4. |
