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 Pei Zhang 2022-01-11 09:17:33 UTC
Description of problem:
Disable SELinux on the host. Then boot VM with vhost-vdpa ports and start testpmd in VM, then hot unplug the vhost-vdpa port will cause qemu crash.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
5.14.0-39.el9.x86_64
qemu-kvm-6.2.0-2.el9.x86_64
libvirt-7.10.0-1.el9.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Disable SElinux

# setenforce 0

# getenforce 
Permissive

2. Setup vDPA env
# modprobe vhost_vdpa
# modprobe mlx5_vdpa

# echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:3b\:00.0/sriov_numvfs
# echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:3b\:00.1/sriov_numvfs

# vdpa mgmtdev show
pci/0000:3b:00.2: 
  supported_classes net
pci/0000:3b:01.2: 
  supported_classes net

# vdpa dev add name vdpa0 mgmtdev pci/0000:3b:00.2
# vdpa dev add name vdpa1 mgmtdev pci/0000:3b:01.2

3. Boot VM with 2 vhost-vdpa ports

<interface type="vdpa">
  <mac address="18:66:da:5f:dd:22" />
  <source dev="/dev/vhost-vdpa-0" />
  <model type="virtio" />
  <address bus="0x6" domain="0x0000" function="0x0" slot="0x00" type="pci" />
</interface>
<interface type="vdpa">
  <mac address="18:66:da:5f:dd:23" />
  <source dev="/dev/vhost-vdpa-1" />
  <model type="virtio" />
  <address bus="0x7" domain="0x0000" function="0x0" slot="0x00" type="pci" />
</interface>


4. Boot testpmd in VM and stop it.

# modprobe vfio enable_unsafe_noiommu_mode=Y
# modprobe vfio-pci

# dpdk-devbind.py --bind=vfio-pci 0000:06:00.0
# dpdk-devbind.py --bind=vfio-pci 0000:07:00.0

# dpdk-testpmd -l 1,2,3 -n 4  -d /usr/lib64/librte_net_virtio.so  -- --nb-cores=2 -i --disable-rss --rxd=512 --txd=512 --rxq=1 --txq=1
testpmd> stop

5. Hot unplug a vhost-vdpa device. Qemu crash. 

# cat /tmp/rhel9.0_vdpa_nic1.xml 
<interface type="vdpa">
  <mac address="18:66:da:5f:dd:22" />
  <source dev="/dev/vhost-vdpa-0" />
  <model type="virtio" />
  <address bus="0x6" domain="0x0000" function="0x0" slot="0x00" type="pci" />
</interface>

# virsh detach-device rhel9.0 /tmp/rhel9.0_vdpa_nic1.xml

Actual results:
qemu crash.

Expected results:
Qemu should not crash.

Additional info:
1. Disable SELinux is a key step to trigger this issue. If enable SElinux, this issue cannot be triggered.  

2. Physical cards: Mellanox Technologies MT2892 Family [ConnectX-6 Dx]

Comment 3 Laurent Vivier 2022-02-09 08:19:13 UTC
The backtrace looks really like BZ 2027208

Comment 5 Laurent Vivier 2022-02-11 17:55:24 UTC
The backtrace really looks like the one of BZ 2027208, so I think the same fix should apply.

Comment 9 Laurent Vivier 2022-02-14 12:18:26 UTC
Pei,

do you agree to close this BZ as a duplicate of BZ 2027208 ?

BZ 2027208 is easier to reproduce for me.

Thanks
