PATCH 1/1 kvm: notify host when guest panicked

We can know the guest is panicked when the guest runs on xen. But we do not have such feature on kvm.

Another purpose of this feature is: management app(for example:
libvirt) can do auto dump when the guest is panicked. If management app does not do auto dump, the guest's user can do dump by hand if he sees the guest is panicked.

We have three solutions to implement this feature:
1. use vmcall
2. use I/O port
3. use virtio-serial.

We have decided to avoid touching hypervisor. The reason why I choose choose the I/O port is:
1. it is easier to implememt
2. it does not depend any virtual device
3. it can work when startint the kernel

PATCH 1/3 start vm after reseting it

The guest should run after reseting it, but it does not run if its old state is RUN_STATE_INTERNAL_ERROR or RUN_STATE_PAUSED.

I am not sure whether we should call it here. I think you may be right, so I will do it as you suggested.

Hmm, if we drop the runstate_set() call here, we should update runstate_transitions_def too.

PATCH 3/3 deal with guest panicked event

In reply to Wen Congyang

When the guest is panicked, it will write 0x1 to the port 0x505. So if qemu reads 0x1 from this port, we can do the folloing three things according to the parameter -onpanic:
1. emit QEVENT_GUEST_PANICKED only
2. emit QEVENT_GUEST_PANICKED and pause VM
3. emit QEVENT_GUEST_PANICKED and quit VM

Note: if we emit QEVENT_GUEST_PANICKED only, and the management application does not receive this event(the management may not run when the event is emitted), the management won't know the guest is panicked.

Re: [PATCH 3/3] deal with guest panicked event

Quoted 106 lines · Wen Congyang

When the guest is panicked, it will write 0x1 to the port 0x505. So if qemu reads 0x1 from this port, we can do the folloing three things according to the parameter -onpanic:
1. emit QEVENT_GUEST_PANICKED only
2. emit QEVENT_GUEST_PANICKED and pause VM
3. emit QEVENT_GUEST_PANICKED and quit VM

Note: if we emit QEVENT_GUEST_PANICKED only, and the management application does not receive this event(the management may not run when the event is emitted), the management won't know the guest is panicked.

Not sure if the discussion about the PV channel already settled, but if PIO is the way to go, please model this as a proper QEMU device (e.g. "panic", implemented in hw/kvm/panic.c), not just an open-coded PIO range.

Having the data argument is not needed/wanted. The mngt app can guess it if it needs to know it, but I think it doesn't want to.

Libvirt will do something when the kernel is panicked, so it should know the action in qemu side.

Libvirt will do something when the kernel is panicked, so it should know the action in qemu side.

But the action will be set by libvirt itself, no?

Sure, but the whole world isn't libvirt. If the process listening to the monitor is not the same as the process which launched the VM, then I think including the action is worthwhile. Besides, the way Wen has done this is identical to what we already do with QEVENT_WATCHDOG and I think it is desirable to keep consistency here.

That's right, I had forgotten about the WATCHDOG event. Maybe it would make more sense to have this info in a query- command though, specially if we plan to have a command to change that setting.

But I won't oppose having it in the event.

Quoted 159 lines

We can know the guest is panicked when the guest runs on xen. But we do not have such feature on kvm.

Another purpose of this feature is: management app(for example:
libvirt) can do auto dump when the guest is panicked. If management app does not do auto dump, the guest's user can do dump by hand if he sees the guest is panicked.

We have three solutions to implement this feature:
1. use vmcall
2. use I/O port
3. use virtio-serial.

We have decided to avoid touching hypervisor. The reason why I choose choose the I/O port is:
1. it is easier to implememt
2. it does not depend any virtual device
3. it can work when startint the kernel

We have three solutions to implement this feature:
1. use vmcall
2. use I/O port
3. use virtio-serial.

We have decided to avoid touching hypervisor. The reason why I choose choose the I/O port is:
1. it is easier to implememt
2. it does not depend any virtual device
3. it can work when startint the kernel

Havent looked deeply into that, butz wouldnt kvm_hypercall0 also fulfill all of these points? You just have to define the number for each architecture and then it should be possible to write a simple panic driver that works on all architectures.

ignoring the above, shouldnt a port number go into an architecture specific file?

kvm_hypercall0? Avi said that we should avoid touching hypercall.

I am not sure whether it should be put into an architecture specific file.

Because PIO is x86 thing.
