Bug 1736792

Hit same issue on slow train.

qemu-kvm-2.12.0-82.module+el8.1.0+3738+0d8c0249
kernel-4.18.0-116.el8.x86_64

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1736788 +++

Description of problem:

Boot guest with nvdimm device backed by /dev/dax0.0, set pmem=off, qemu core dumped with 'Bus error' during guest boot.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
qemu-kvm-4.0.0-6.module+el8.1.0+3736+a2aefea3
host kernel: 4.18.0-116.el8.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Emulate /dev/pmem by adding memmap=4G!4G to host kernel line
# cat /proc/cmdline 
BOOT_IMAGE=(hd0,msdos1)/vmlinuz-4.18.0-116.el8.x86_64 root=/dev/mapper/rhel_hp--dl385g10--02-root ro crashkernel=auto resume=/dev/mapper/rhel_hp--dl385g10--02-swap rd.lvm.lv=rhel_hp-dl385g10-02/root rd.lvm.lv=rhel_hp-dl385g10-02/swap console=ttyS0,115200n81 memmap=4G!4G

2. Create /dev/dax0.0 by ndctl

# ndctl create-namespace -m dax -e namespace0.0 -f -v -a 4096
{
  "dev":"namespace0.0",
  "mode":"devdax",
  "map":"dev",
  "size":"3.94 GiB (4.23 GB)",
  "uuid":"4635cd69-c9f1-4886-a9f6-b8f7aa4d4fc2",
  "daxregion":{
    "id":0,
    "size":"3.94 GiB (4.23 GB)",
    "align":4096,
    "devices":[
      {
        "chardev":"dax0.0",
        "size":"3.94 GiB (4.23 GB)"
      }
    ]
  },
  "align":4096
}
[root@hp-dl385g10-02 ~]# ndctl list
[
  {
    "dev":"namespace0.0",
    "mode":"devdax",
    "map":"dev",
    "size":4225761280,
    "uuid":"4635cd69-c9f1-4886-a9f6-b8f7aa4d4fc2",
    "chardev":"dax0.0",
    "align":4096
  }
]

3. Boot guest with /dev/dax0.0, set pmem=off

# /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -M pc,nvdimm   \
-m 1G,slots=256,maxmem=40G  \
-object memory-backend-file,id=mem2,share,mem-path=/dev/dax0.0,size=4G,align=128M,pmem=off \
-device nvdimm,memdev=mem2,id=nv2,label-size=2M \
/home/kvm_autotest_root/images/rhel810-64-virtio-scsi.qcow2 \
-monitor stdio -vnc :0

Actual results:
QEMU core dumped.
(qemu) Bus error (core dumped)

Expected results:
No core dump.

Additional info:
1. if set pmem=on, qemu quit and print error message,
qemu-kvm: -object memory-backend-file,id=mem2,share,mem-path=/dev/dax0.0,size=4G,align=128M,pmem=on: size property 4294967296 is larger than pmem file "/dev/dax0.0" size 4225761280

2. if set object size<4G, e.g. -object memory-backend-file,id=mem2,share,mem-path=/dev/dax0.0,size=2G,align=128M,pmem=off, guest can boot up well.
