I can't reproduce it locally, could you prove an access to system where bug reproduces? Hi Juzhang and Igor, I have sent a mail just now to provide the access info to the system. And r7.1 is ready to use to reproduce the issue. Please have a look, thank you very much! Fixed upstream (2.7): 056b68af fix qemu exit on memory hotplug when allocation fails at prealloc time Fix included in qemu-kvm-rhev-2.6.0-21.el7 Reproduce: qemu-kvm-rhev-2.6.0-2.el7 kernel-3.10.0-497.el7.x86_64 Steps: 1. prepare host env # cat /proc/meminfo | grep -i huge AnonHugePages: 8192 kB HugePages_Total: 4 HugePages_Free: 4 HugePages_Rsvd: 0 HugePages_Surp: 0 Hugepagesize: 1048576 kB # cat /sys/devices/system/node/node*/hugepages/hugepages-1048576kB/nr_hugepages 1 1 1 1 # mount hugetlbfs on /dev/hugepages/libvirt/qemu type hugetlbfs (rw,relatime,seclabel,pagesize=1G) 2.

So the bug is reproduced. Verify: qemu-kvm-rhev-2.6.0-22.el7 kernel-3.10.0-497.el7.x86_64 With same steps as above, QEMU print "os_mem_prealloc: Insufficient free host memory pages available to allocate guest RAM", and guest work well. So the bug is fixed. Since the problem described in this bug report should be resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a resolution of ERRATA.
