Description Gal Hammer 2019-08-05 09:56:35 UTC
Description of problem: QEMU coredump after "device_add e1000e,id=net0,bus=pcie_extra_root_port_0"

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Upstream QEMU emulator version 4.0.93 (v4.1.0-rc3-3-g02ac2f7f61)

How reproducible: 100% (but might require several attempts).

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Start qemu with a Linux guest (I used Fedora 29):

qemu-system-x86_64 -m 2G -smp 2 -enable-kvm -M q35 -nodefaults \
	-device pcie-root-port,id=pcie_extra_root_port_0 \
        -monitor stdio \
	-vga cirrus \
        -device ide-drive,drive=drive-virtio0-0-0,id=virtio0-0-0,bootindex=1 \
        -drive file=fedora-29.qcow2,if=none,id=drive-virtio0-0-0,format=qcow2,werror=stop,rerror=stop,cache=none

2. Add an e1000e device: device_add e1000e,id=net0,bus=pcie_extra_root_port_0

3. If the no crash has occur, try to "device_del net0", wait a few seconds till device is removed and try plugging it again.

Actual results:

Comment 2 Pei Zhang 2019-08-06 06:23:31 UTC
Thanks Gal for reporting this issue.

I tried to reproduce. This bug can be triggered when only hot plug e1000e device but without tap. If we hot plug a tap device first, then hot plug e1000e, qemu will work well. 

(qemu) netdev_add tap,id=hostnet1
(qemu) device_add e1000e,netdev=hostnet1,id=net1,mac=88:66:da:5f:dd:02,bus=root.5
(qemu) 

As tap is a necessary device for e1000e when guest communicate with external servers. So we usually hot plug a tap device first, then hot plug an e1000e device in our past testings.

Comment 6 Ademar Reis 2020-02-05 23:02:01 UTC
QEMU has been recently split into sub-components and as a one-time operation to avoid breakage of tools, we are setting the QEMU sub-component of this BZ to "General". Please review and change the sub-component if necessary the next time you review this BZ. Thanks

Comment 7 John Ferlan 2020-02-06 21:04:18 UTC
This looks like Yan forgot to set the Triaged keyword when changing the subcomponent and reassigning to virt-maint.

I'll place the needinfo on Yan to double check - Yan - if you want this back, then just reassign to yourself; otherwise, just clear the needinfo

Sorry, John. Reassigning back to myself.

Yes, this is a fix.

Comment 11 John Ferlan 2020-04-21 16:49:28 UTC
Setting the ITR to 8.3.0 since having a bug in POST in the backlog (ITR = '---') doesn't make sense.   Also setting the devel_ack+.

NB: Fix is included in qemu-5.0 (commit id f22a57ac09abdd5afd8a974b52c19eda9347cffd)

Comment 12 Quan Wenli 2020-06-28 05:31:06 UTC
Reproduce it with qemu-kvm-4.2.0-26.module+el8.2.1+7079+67e06423.x86_64. 

hotplug and unhotplug e1000e nic 6 times, the qemu was crashed. 

(qemu) device_add e1000e,id=net0,bus=pcie_extra_root_port_0 
(qemu) device_del net0
(qemu) 156579 Segmentation fault      (core dumped) /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -m 2G -smp 2 -enable-kvm -M q35 -nodefaults -device pcie-root-port,id=pcie_extra_root_port_0 -monitor stdio -vga cirrus -device ide-drive,drive=drive-virtio0-0-0,id=virtio0-0-0,bootindex=1 -drive file=/root/rhel830-64-virtio.qcow2,if=none,id=drive-virtio0-0-0,format=qcow2,werror=stop,rerror=stop,cache=none


Retried with qemu-kvm-5.0.0-0.module+el8.3.0+6620+5d5e1420 with 10 times. the qemu works well. 


Once it's on_qa status, will set it to VERIFIED.

Comment 13 Quan Wenli 2020-06-29 07:07:14 UTC
Base on comment #12, set it to verified.

Comment 15 Jeff Nelson 2021-01-08 16:59:45 UTC
This BZ was not attached to an advisory and therefore was not closed when RHEL AV was shipped. Correcting this now by marking the BZ CLOSED CURRENTRELEASE.
