Description Xuesong Zhang 2013-06-13 09:30:52 UTC
Description of problem
It should report error while the bps or iops values are not supported by guest.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
libvirt-1.0.6-1.el7.x86_64
kernel-3.9.0-0.55.el7.x86_64
qemu-kvm-1.5.0-2.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps
1. prepare one running guest.

2. Set iotune total_bytes_sec
# virsh blkdeviotune b hda --total-bytes-sec 12212221112000930000
error: Unable to change block I/O throttle
error: internal error Unexpected error

3. Set iotune total_bytes_sec with option --config
#virsh blkdeviotune b hda --total-bytes-sec 12212221112000930000 --config

4. check in the inactive dumpxml
# virsh dumpxml b --inactive |grep -A 5 disk
    <disk type='file' device='disk'>
      <driver name='qemu' type='qcow2' cache='none'/>
      <source file='/var/lib/libvirt/images/kvm-rhel6.4-x86_64-qcow2.img'/>
      <target dev='hda' bus='ide'/>
      <iotune>
        <total_bytes_sec>12212221112000930000</total_bytes_sec>
......
5. destroy this domain and start it again.
# virsh destroy b
Domain b destroyed

# virsh start b
error: Failed to start domain b
error: internal error process exited while connecting to monitor: char device redirected to /dev/pts/1 (label charserial0)
qemu-kvm: -drive file=/var/lib/libvirt/images/kvm-rhel6.4-x86_64-qcow2.img,if=none,id=drive-ide0-0-0,format=qcow2,cache=none,bps=12212221112000930000: bps and iops values must be 0 or greater


Actual results:
as steps

Expected results:
It should report error in step3 if the bos or iops valuses are not supportted by guest.
The error message should be same as the one in step 2.

    qemu: check if block I/O limits fit into long long
    
    We can only pass values up to LLONG_MAX through JSON
    and QEMU checks if the int64_t number is not negative
    at startup since 1.5.0.

Comment 4 hyao@redhat.com 2013-06-28 05:46:24 UTC
Reproduce the bug with same version 
#rpm -qa libvirt qemu-kvm kernel
qemu-kvm-1.5.0-2.el7.x86_64
libvirt-1.0.6-1.el7.x86_64
kernel-3.9.0-0.55.el7.x86_64

Comment 5 Shanzhi Yu 2013-07-03 02:41:40 UTC
verify this bug with libvirt-1.1.0-1.el7.x86_64.

Steps:
1. prepare one running guest.

2. Set iotune total_bytes_sec
# virsh blkdeviotune kvm-rhel6.3-x86_64-qcow2-virtio vda --total-bytes-sec 12212221112000930000
error: Unable to change block I/O throttle
error: numerical overflow: block I/O throttle limit value must be less than 9223372036854775807

3. Set iotune total_bytes_sec with option --config
#virsh blkdeviotune kvm-rhel6.3-x86_64-qcow2-virtio hda --total-bytes-sec 12212221112000930000 --config
error: Unable to change block I/O throttle
error: numerical overflow: block I/O throttle limit value must be less than 9223372036854775807
4. check in the inactive dumpxml
# virsh dumpxml kvm-rhel6.3-x86_64-qcow2-virtio --inactive |grep -A 5 disk
    <disk type='file' device='disk'>
      <driver name='qemu' type='qcow2' cache='none'/>
      <source file='/var/lib/libvirt/images/kvm-rhel6.3-x86_64-qcow2.img'/>
      <target dev='hda' bus='virtio'/>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x06' function='0x0'/>
    </disk>
......
The error is clear, so verify this bug.
