IIRC, that error usually really means 'qemu dropped dead unexpectedly' or something like that. Can you try running the same qemu command (modified as minimally as possible to run outside of openqa) manually and see what happens? You could also try https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2019-bee032bb21 , which is what's running on staging now and I think is not having this problem there. I tell a lie - our p8 worker host *is* hitting this, e.g. https://openqa.stg.fedoraproject.org/tests/665001/file/autoinst-log.txt . the p9 worker hosts are not hitting it. Note I did notice this problem with virt-install on the p8 box as well: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1768551 these could possibly be the same bug... OK, yeah, I think my theory is adding up. Try with `-M pseries-3.1` and I bet you'll find it works. I think the issue is that qemu after this commit: https://github.com/qemu/qemu/commit/2782ad4c4102d57f7f8e135dce0c1adb0149de77 expects firmware support for this SPAPR_CAP_WORKAROUND mitigation, but our affected machines do not have a new enough firmware. I've filed https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/issue/8365 to request the firmware on our infra box be updated. Can you check this and if you think I'm right, we can probably close this as a dupe of 1768551 ? as per Adam Williamson investigation of bug#1769600, I redo a test on my P8 machine adding "QEMU_APPEND=-M pserie-3.1" as openQA ppc64le machine, and was able to run tests. So eturn this bug as duplicate of new bug. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 1769600 *** Michel: I think bug#1768551 and bug#1769600 are different. bug#1768551 happens on our P8 worker host, and in that case qemu just exits out immediately on launch. bug#1769600 happens on our P9 worker host, and in *that* case qemu runs, but cannot boot much past the bootloader. Both can be worked around by changing the machine type, but I don't think they're exactly the same bug. As the machine and symptoms here match bug#1768551 , let's make this a dupe of that, not the P9 one. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 1768551 *** BTW, for openQA purposes there is actually a `QEMUMACHINE` variable you can just set to `pseries-3.1` (or `pseries-3.1,usb=off` to match a baked-in default in os-autoinst, if you prefer...if you don't set `QEMUMACHINE` on ppc, os-autoinst automatically sets it to `usb=off`, so I guess there's some reason to preserve that in a custom setting). I only figured this out halfway through yesterday though :P |
