Summary:
- 2.6.29.1-111.fc11.x86_64 on an amd64 machine
- seen while installing RHEL5.3
- Hitting this BUG():
asmlinkage void kvm_handle_fault_on_reboot(void)
{
if (kvm_rebooting)
/* spin while reset goes on */
while (true)
;
/* Fault while not rebooting. We want the trace. */
BUG();
}

Possibly relevant thread: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.kvm.devel/25326 Plenty of examples of this on kerneloops.org: http://www.kerneloops.org/search.php?search=kvm_handle_fault_on_reboot So the trigger here is the vbox driver. From kerneloops: Module stats Oops number: #79008 (107 times) vboxdrv 106 kvm_handle_fault_on_reboot should handle these exceptions in a nicer way. (In reply to comment #3) > So the trigger here is the vbox driver. Indeed, I missed this: qemu-kvm Tainted: P D Closing as WONTFIX; if upstream can make the warning go away, that would be good, but working around issues caused by proprietary modules isn't a priority for us in Fedora |
