Description Frank DeLorey 2018-08-31 15:59:53 UTC
Description of problem: The ssbd and spec_ctrl cpu flags are missing after upgrading host to rhvh-4.2.5.2-0.20180813 and hence host is not able to join the existing cluster.The flags return after booting with with rhvh-4.2.4.3-0.20180622.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

RHV 4.2.5
rhvh-4.2.5.2-0.20180813


How reproducible:

Every time


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Upgrade RHV host to rhvh-4.2.5.2-0.20180813

Actual results:

Host fails to join cluster.

Expected results:

Host should join cluster without any errors.

This is not related to RHVH. We don't touch these profiles.

Can you please capture cpuinfo and virsh capabilities before and after the upgrade so I can move to the appropriate team? I'm not sure whether this is ovirt-engine or libvirt, since comments on https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1584219 indicate that libvirt may cache microcode "forever", and microcode changes may need a cache flush

Comment 5 Michal Skrivanek 2018-09-01 05:36:05 UTC
Flags show it’s not running recent enough firmware and it doesn’t support spec_ctrl nor ssbd. 
Can you add the same output from the same host when running rhvh-4.2.4.3-0.20180622?

Comment 8 Michal Skrivanek 2018-09-07 18:30:39 UTC
Microcode versions differ. Are they really the same host? How’s that possible?

Comment 17 cshao 2018-09-13 09:12:29 UTC
QE can reproduce this issue.

Test version:
rhvh-4.2.4.3-0.20180622.
rhvh-4.2.5.2-0.20180813
rhv-4.2.6-4

Test steps:
1. Install rhvh-4.2.4.3-0.20180622.
2. Register to engine.
3. Upgrade to rhvh-4.2.5.2-0.20180813 via RHVM GUI.

Test result:
Host "hostname" moved to Non-Operational state as host does not meet the cluster's minimum CPU level. Missing CPU features : spec_ctrl

Chen, can you please try to reproduce with latest released 4.2.6 RHV-H?
If microcode_ctl related, 4.2.6 should have the right one included.

Can't reproduce this issue with latest released 4.2.6 RHV-H.

Test version: 
Upgrade from rhvh-4.2.4.3-0.20180622
to: RHVH 4.2.6 async - rhvh-4.2.6.1-0.20180907.0+1
to: RHVH 4.2.7 - rhvh-4.2.7.0-0.20180918.0+1

Test steps:

1. Install rhvh-4.2.4.3-0.20180622.
2. Register to engine.
3. Upgrade to 4.2.6 / 4.2.7 via RHVM GUI.

Test result:
Upgrade can succeed, RHVH can up.

So the bug is fixed, change bug status to VERIFIED.
