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 Jingjing Shao 2017-07-05 08:28:35 UTC
Description of problem:
Guest OS will down when scsi controller enable the IOMMU for Virtio

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
qemu-kvm-rhev-2.9.0-14.el7.x86_64
host kernel: 3.10.0-691.el7.x86_64
guest kernel : 3.10.0-691.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. In host, add "iommu=pt intel_iommu=on" to kernel line
2. Add "intel_iommu=on" to kernel line of  q35  guest
3. Add the xml as below in the guest 
   <features>
    <ioapic driver='qemu'/>
  </features>
  ...
   <iommu model='intel'>
      <driver intremap='on' iotlb='on'/>
   </iommu>
 
4. Add the iommu='on' ats='on' to scsi controller and change the disk bus to scsi.
....
     <controller type='scsi' index='0' model='virtio-scsi'>
       <driver iommu='on' ats='on'/>
     </controller>
....
     <disk type='file' device='disk'>
      <driver name='qemu' type='qcow2' cache='none  iommu='on' ats='on'/>
      <source file='/nfs/rhel7.3-q35.qcow2'/>
      <target dev='vda' bus='scsi'/>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x07' function='0x0'/>
    </disk>


5. Start the guest and find the guest can not be accessed.


Actual results:
As the step 5 shows.


Expected results:
The guest can be accessed successfully

Comment 18 FuXiangChun 2017-11-28 07:24:16 UTC
Reproduced bug with seabios-1.10.2-3.el7.x86_64 & qemu-kvm-rhev-2.10.0-7.el7.x86_64 & kernel-3.10.0-798.el7.x86_64

result:
The guest OS will report  "No bootable device" 

Verified bug with seabios-1.11.0-1.el7.x86_64 & qemu-kvm-rhev-2.10.0-7.el7.x86_64 & kernel-3.10.0-798.el7.x86_64

Guest works well.

Steps:


For q35
1. In host, add "iommu=pt intel_iommu=on" to kernel line
2. Add "intel_iommu=on" to kernel line of q35  guest
3. iommu_platform=on,ats=on to "-device virtio-blk-pci...."
4. key qemu command

-machine pc-q35-rhel7.5.0
-device virtio-scsi-pci,id=scsi0,bus=pci.3,addr=0x0 -device virtio-serial-pci,id=virtio-serial0,bus=pcie.0,addr=0x5 -drive file=/home/seabio-new-system-disk.qcow2,format=qcow2,if=none,id=drive-virtio-disk0 -device virtio-scsi-pci,bus=pci.4,addr=0x0,id=drive-virtio-disk01,id=virtio-disk0,iommu_platform=on,ats=on -device scsi-hd,drive=drive-virtio-disk0,bootindex=1

5. For pc
/usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -name guest=q35-seabios,debug-threads=on -machine pc -cpu SandyBridge,vmx=on -m 8192 -realtime mlock=off -smp 4,sockets=2,cores=2,threads=1 -drive file=/home/seabio-new-system-disk.qcow2,format=qcow2,if=none,id=drive-virtio-disk0 -device virtio-scsi-pci,id=drive-virtio-disk01,id=virtio-disk0,iommu_platform=on,ats=on,disable-legacy=on,disable-modern=off -device scsi-hd,drive=drive-virtio-disk0,bootindex=1 -vnc :2 -monitor stdio
