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 Min Deng 2012-10-23 05:33:28 UTC 
Description of problem:
The guest will hit BSOD(9F) while guest is undergoing crystal disk mark and iozone testing.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
virtio-win-prewhql-0.1-41

How reproducible:
3 times /1 reproduced

Steps to Reproduce:
1.boot up guest with the following CLI -
  /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -m 2G -smp 2 -cpu host,+x2apic -usb -device usb-tablet -drive file=win2k8-R2.qcow2,format=qcow2,if=none,id=drive-ide0-0-0,werror=stop,rerror=stop,cache=none -device virtio-blk-pci,drive=drive-ide0-0-0,id=ide0-0-0,bootindex=1 -netdev tap,id=hostnet0,script=/etc/qemu-ifup -device e1000,netdev=hostnet0,mac=10:10:1a:75:59:03,bus=pci.0,addr=0x4 -uuid `uuidgen` -rtc base=localtime -no-kvm-pit-reinjection -monitor stdio -name win2k8-64-fun -device virtio-balloon-pci,addr=0x6,bus=pci.0,id=balloon1 -chardev socket,id=111a,path=/tmp/monitor-win2k8-64-balloon-30,server,nowait -mon chardev=111a,mode=readline -cdrom /home/en_windows_server_2008_r2_standard_enterprise_datacenter_and_web_with_sp1_x64_dvd_617601.iso -drive file=disk1.qcow2,format=qcow2,if=none,id=drive-virtio1,cache=none,werror=stop,rerror=stop -device virtio-blk-pci,drive=drive-virtio1,id=virtio-blk-pci1 -drive file=disk2.qcow2,format=qcow2,if=none,id=drive-virtio2,cache=none,werror=stop,rerror=stop -device virtio-blk-pci,drive=drive-virtio2,id=virtio-blk-pci2 -drive file=disk3.qcow2,format=qcow2,if=none,id=drive-virtio3,cache=none,werror=stop,rerror=stop -device virtio-blk-pci,drive=drive-virtio3,id=virtio-blk-pci3 -drive file=disk4.qcow2,format=qcow2,if=none,id=drive-virtio4,cache=none,werror=stop,rerror=stop -device virtio-blk-pci,drive=drive-virtio4,id=virtio-blk-pci4 -global PIIX4_PM.disable_s3=0 -global PIIX4_PM.disable_s4=0 -spice disable-ticketing,port=5931 -vga qxl
2.install crystal disk mark and iozone and testing driver via the two third-party software in the guest.
3.do S3 for the guest (need installing qxl for the guest)
Notes,
Running two crystal disk mark for at least 2 disks at the same time.
Actual results:
The guest can hibernate&resume successfully.

Expected results:
It take much time for the guest to hibernate,and at last the guest got an BSOD error(9F).

Additional info:
QE will put dump files to win-team share folder after a while.
Comment 3 Min Deng 2012-10-23 08:59:02 UTC 
cache=none/writeback/writethrough can reproduce the bug.
Comment 5 Gal Hammer 2013-03-14 15:02:11 UTC 
Taking the risk of repeating myself :-).

Is it possible that the crash occurs even without the running the crystal disk mark and iozone testing? A simpler scenario which check if the disks are accessible after suspend/hibernate.

And does the SeaBIOS fix from bug 912561 fix the problem?
Comment 6 Ronen Hod 2013-03-14 17:10:51 UTC 
I think that Vadim said that it does not reproduce with upstream SeaBIOS.
Vadim, is it true?

I believe that is was mentioned several times before, the problem is not related to the crystal disk mark. Start->hibernate->resume->hibernate sequence without any additional manipulations in between should be enough to bring the system down. The problem is easily reproducible on a system with two virtio-scsi drives
(one system, one non-system). the problem also can be reproduced on virtio-blk,
but they need to be operating in IRQ mode. It is not reproducible in MSI mode.

And, yes. I tried both of them - scsi and block. With upstream BIOS they work good.

dawu ,

pls re-test this issue on the seabios attached in Bug 912561

Since https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=912561 cause lots of driver BOSD ,We could like to keep this one open and reverify it after Bug 912561 fixed .
Comment 10 Mike Cao 2013-07-19 03:29:51 UTC 
dengmin ,pls retest it on the latest virtio-win/ qemu-kvm-rhev/seabios package
Comment 12 Ronen Hod 2013-07-29 09:22:04 UTC 
QE,
We suspect that it is a regression that is already reported in several other bugs.
Can you please try the new BIOS and 6.4 drivers.
Thanks.

Hi Mike,
  Re-test the build via w/ virtio-win-1.6.5_6 & seabios-28,I cannot reproduce the issue.The guest works well from my opinions.
Thanks,
Min
