This is works as designed. If we're using static huge pages we expect to get enough of them. If you do not have enough (reserved before), just use THP instead. Hi Dor, I think it should quit but not crash (In reply to comment #3) > Hi Dor, > I think it should quit but not crash You're right but we barely have the bandwidth to change it, raising an exception is not that awkward solution |
Description of problem: echo large mem to /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepage, and then run guest. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.188.el6.x86_64 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. echo large mem to /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepage 2. run guest usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -monitor stdio -drive file='/home/Auto/autotest-devel/client/tests/kvm/images/RHEL-Server-6.1-64-virtio.qcow2',index=0,if=none,id=drive-virtio-disk1,media=disk,cache=none,format=qcow2,aio=native -device virtio-blk-pci,bus=pci.0,addr=0x4,drive=drive-virtio-disk1,id=virtio-disk1 -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=idCnizDC,mac=00:e6:4a:94:f2:20,id=ndev00idCnizDC,bus=pci.0,addr=0x3 -netdev tap,id=idCnizDC,vhost=on,script='/home/Auto/autotest-devel/client/tests/kvm/scripts/qemu-ifup-switch',downscript='no' -m 4G -smp 2,cores=2,threads=1,sockets=1 -cpu cpu64-rhel6,+sse2,+x2apic -vnc :2 -rtc base=utc,clock=host,driftfix=none -M rhel6.2.0 -boot order=cdn,once=c,menu=off -usbdevice tablet -no-kvm-pit-reinjection -enable-kvm 3.
