RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Mike Cao 2014-02-20 06:45:09 UTC 
Description of problem:


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
win7-32 guest
qemu-kvm-rhev-1.5.3-48.el7.x86_64
seabios-1.7.2.2-10.el7.x86_64
3.10.0-86.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Start VM with CLI:
/usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -M pc -cpu SandyBridge -enable-kvm -m 2G -smp 4,cores=2,threads=1,sockets=2 -name bcao_win-7-32-netkvm -uuid `uuidgen` -rtc base=localtime,clock=host,driftfix=slew -drive file=win7-32.qcow2,if=none,media=disk,serial=aaabbbccc,werror=stop,rerror=stop,cache=none,format=qcow2,id=drive-disk0 -device ide-drive,physical_block_size=4096,bus=ide.0,unit=1,logical_block_size=512,drive=drive-disk0,id=disk0 -drive file=en_windows_7_ultimate_with_sp1_x86_dvd_u_677460.iso,if=none,media=cdrom,id=aa -device ide-drive,id=aa1,drive=aa,bootindex=1 -drive media=cdrom,if=none,id=bb -device ide-drive,id=bb1,drive=bb -netdev tap,vhost=on,id=netdev0 -device e1000,netdev=netdev0,id=nic1,mac=1a:46:11:4a:bc:7a -vnc :2 -monitor stdio -usb -device usb-tablet,id=tablet0 -global PIIX4_PM.disable_s3=0 -global PIIX_PM.disable_s4=0 -monitor unix:/tmp/tt,server,nowait -boot menu=on -device virtio-balloon-pci,id=balloon0 -qmp tcp:0:5888,server,nowait -global PIIX4_PM.disable_s4=0
2.install VirtIO balloon driver and blnsrv.exe
3.{ "execute": "qom-get",
  "arguments": { "path": "/machine/peripheral/balloon0",
  "property": "guest-stats" } }

4.do s3 in the guest 
5.resume guest 
6.(qemu)balloon 512
7,repeat step3 

Actual Results:
After step 3
{"return": {"stats": {"stat-swap-out": 0, "stat-free-memory": 1678331904, "stat-minor-faults": 221, "stat-major-faults": 0, "stat-total-memory": 2147074048, "stat-swap-in": 0}, "last-update": 1392873981}}

After step 7
The return value is exactly same w/ step3


Expected Results:
After step7 ,the return values should changed and same as the guest shows 


Additional info :
after s3  ,qom-get still can return values after #blnsrv -u/-s/-p
Comment 3 Gal Hammer 2014-08-10 10:55:26 UTC 
What is the balloon driver version? Is it still reproducible?

> What is the balloon driver version? Is it still reproducible?

Re-Test this issue on virtio-win-prewhql-89 
3.10.0-121.el7.x86_64
qemu-kvm-1.5.3-62.el7.x86_64

Steps same as comment #0

Actual Results:
After step3 :
{"return": {"stats": {"stat-swap-out": 0, "stat-free-memory": 1606569984, "stat-minor-faults": 12, "stat-major-faults": 0, "stat-total-memory": 2147074048, "stat-swap-in": 0}, "last-update": 1407835556}}

After 7
{"return": {"stats": {"stat-swap-out": 0, "stat-free-memory": 172953600, "stat-minor-faults": 300, "stat-major-faults": 0, "stat-total-memory": 2147074048, "stat-swap-in": 0}, "last-update": 1407835629}}

in the guest the free mem is 164G

Based on above ,this issue does not exists in virtio-win-prewhql-89

This line should be "in the guest the free mem is 164M"
