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 Qianqian Zhu 2017-05-02 04:32:47 UTC
Description of problem:
qemu abort when live snapshot for multiple block device simultaneously with transaction and one is to a non-exist path.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Launch guest with two block device.

# gdb /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm

(gdb)  run -drive file=/home/rhel74-64-virtio-scsi.qcow2,format=qcow2,if=none,id=drive-scsi-disk0,werror=stop,rerror=stop,cache=none -device virtio-scsi-pci,id=scsi0 -device scsi-hd,drive=drive-scsi-disk0,bus=scsi0.0,scsi-id=0,lun=0,id=scsi-disk0 -monitor stdio -qmp tcp:0:5555,server,nowait -vnc :3 -netdev tap,id=hostnet0,script=/etc/qemu-ifup -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=hostnet0,id=virtio-net-pci0,mac=70:e2:84:14:0e:15 -drive file=/home/test.qcow2,format=qcow2,if=none,id=drive-scsi-disk1,werror=stop,rerror=stop,cache=none -device scsi-hd,drive=drive-scsi-disk1,bus=scsi0.0,scsi-id=1,lun=1,id=scsi-disk1

2. live snapshot simultaneously with transaction, "/home/test/test/test" below does not exist.
{ "execute": "transaction", "arguments": { "actions": [ { 'type': 'blockdev-snapshot-sync', 'data' : { "device": "drive-scsi-disk0","snapshot-file": "/home/sn1-a.qcow2","mode": "absolute-paths", "format": "qcow2" } }, { 'type': 'blockdev-snapshot-sync', 'data' : { "device": "drive-scsi-disk1","snapshot-file": "/home/test/test/test","mode": "absolute-paths", "format": "qcow2" } }]}}


Actual results:
qemu abort.

Expected results:
qmp prompt error like:
{"error": {"class": "GenericError", "desc": "Could not create file: No such file or directory"}}


Additional info:
1. This issue is ppc only, x86 works well.
2. qmp prompts error as expect and qemu works normally if replace step 2 with either:
{ "execute": 'blockdev-snapshot-sync', "arguments": { "device": "drive-scsi-disk1","snapshot-file": "/home/test/test/test","mode": "absolute-paths", "format": "qcow2" } }
or:
{ "execute": "transaction", "arguments": { "actions": [ { 'type': 'blockdev-snapshot-sync', 'data' : { "device": "drive-scsi-disk1","snapshot-file": "/home/test/test/test","mode": "absolute-paths", "format": "qcow2" } }]}}

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
qemu-kvm-rhev-2.9.0-1.el7.ppc64le
kernel-3.10.0-657.el7.ppc64le

How reproducible:
100%

Comment 3 David Gibson 2017-05-02 06:59:16 UTC
Please check if the same error occurs on x86, this seems relatively unlikely to be powerpc specific.

It's already mentioned in the description, under "Additional info" - seems like it is powerpc specific indeed.

Comment 5 Qianqian Zhu 2017-05-02 07:51:05 UTC
This works well on qemu-kvm-rhev-2.6.0-27.el7.ppc64le, so should be a regression.

Comment 7 Qianqian Zhu 2017-05-02 08:21:31 UTC
Sorry, I have tested on a wrong version for x86, this issue also exists on qemu-kvm-rhev-2.9.0-1.el7.x86_64. So it is not ppc specific.

Comment 12 Miroslav Rezanina 2017-06-13 16:33:57 UTC
Fix included in qemu-kvm-rhev-2.9.0-10.el7

Comment 13 Qianqian Zhu 2017-06-14 07:36:20 UTC
Verified with:
qemu-kvm-rhev-2.9.0-10.el7.x86_64
kernel-3.10.0-679.el7.x86_64

Steps exactly same as comment0.
Result:
As expected, qmp prompts error and does not perform any block job:
{"error": {"class": "GenericError", "desc": "Could not create file: No such file or directory"}}
