Description Dr. David Alan Gilbert 2014-06-10 13:54:43 EDT

Description of problem:
Trivially able to seg qemu by attempting to migrate to a destination that isn't listening

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
qemu-kvm-rhev-2.0.0-1.el7ev.test.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Get a pair of machines connected via ib
2. Start a qemu 
3. migrate -d rdma:ibpair:4444
   where 'ibpair' is the IP address of the other host, which you can ping via it's ib interface but doesn't have a receiving QEMU running.

Actual results:
seg

Expected results:
a nice error

Comment 1 Dr. David Alan Gilbert 2014-06-12 06:02:08 EDT

Fixed by http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/321271/ that never got merged upstream.

Comment 3 Miroslav Rezanina 2014-08-26 10:03:52 EDT

Fix included in qemu-kvm-1.5.3-69.el7

Comment 5 Shaolong Hu 2014-10-15 05:29:27 EDT

Verified on qemu-kvm-1.5.3-75.el7.x86_64:

if des has no qemu-kvm listening:

(qemu) migrate x-rdma:192.168.100.1:5555
source_resolve_host RDMA Device opened: kernel name mlx4_0 uverbs device name uverbs0, infiniband_verbs class device path /sys/class/infiniband_verbs/uverbs0, infiniband class device path /sys/class/infiniband/mlx4_0, transport: (2) Ethernet
rdma_get_cm_event != EVENT_ESTABLISHED after rdma_connect: Resource temporarily unavailable
RDMA ERROR: connecting to destination!
migrate: RDMA ERROR: connecting to destination!


There is proper error report, and qemu-kvm works correctly.

Comment 6 Shaolong Hu 2014-10-15 05:53:01 EDT

During test, found another issue:

Bug 1152969 - Qemu-kvm got stuck when migrate to wrong RDMA ip

symptom is different, list here for reference.
