ISST-LTE:KVM:Ubuntu18.04:BostonLC:boslcp3:boslcp3g3:Guest conosle hangs after hotplug CPU add operation.

[bugproxy]

Problem Description:
===================
Performed HOTPLUG cpu attach operation for the guest and guest console becomes unresponsive.

Steps to re-create:
==================
1. updated boslcp3 host BMC :116 & PNOR: 20180302 levels

2. Installed Ubuntu1804 on boslcp3 host & guests with trap issue fixes

root@boslcp3:/home# uname -a
Linux boslcp3 4.15.0-12-generic #13+leo20180320 SMP Tue Mar 20 13:10:42 CDT 2018 ppc64le ppc64le ppc64le GNU/Linux

3. Started HTX & stress-ng for on guest for 10-15 min

4. Cleaned up the tests to perform hot-plug and ensure enough memory and cpu was there (killed all Process using kill)

5. Performed cpu hot-plug and guest went into hung state

Before Hotplug:

Hotplug add CPU:

8. Took dump for the guest, attache vmcore & other logs.

Thanks to the Linux block community, I'm now aware of two commits that should fix this issue.

https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/20e4d813931961fe26d26a1e98b3aba6ec00b130

 blk-mq: simplify queue mapping & schedule with each possisble CPU

 The previous patch assigns interrupt vectors to all possible CPUs, so
 now hctx can be mapped to possible CPUs, this patch applies this fact
 to simplify queue mapping & schedule so that we don't need to handle
 CPU hotplug for dealing with physical CPU plug & unplug. With this
 simplication, we can work well on physical CPU plug & unplug, which
 is a normal use case for VM at least.

 Make sure we allocate blk_mq_ctx structures for all possible CPUs, and
 set hctx->numa_node for possible CPUs which are mapped to this hctx. And
 only choose the online CPUs for schedule.

https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/84676c1f21e8ff54befe985f4f14dc1edc10046b

 genirq/affinity: assign vectors to all possible CPUs

 Currently we assign managed interrupt vectors to all present CPUs. This
 works fine for systems were we only online/offline CPUs. But in case of
 systems that support physical CPU hotplug (or the virtualized version of
 it) this means the additional CPUs covered for in the ACPI tables or on
 the command line are not catered for. To fix this we'd either need to
 introduce new hotplug CPU states just for this case, or we can start
 assining vectors to possible but not present CPUs.

Hi Jose,

I have applied the above patch on latest kernel on boslcp3g3 guest and did not hit with guest hung issue with 50+ l hours of regression run.

Hi Indira,

Excelent news. The backport is already merged into Ubuntu, so it should be available in the next bionic update.

Thank you

Hello Indira!

Not yet. I just checked the most recent upstream version and the code fix isn't there. I'll keep my eye on the next updates.

[Seth Forshee (sforshee)]

I think the patches from this bug are causing a problem. See LP: #1765232 for details.

I've identified a number of upstream fixes for these patches, listed on that bug. We are days out from release though, and the last of them (d3056812e7df "genirq/affinity: Spread irq vectors among present CPUs as far as possible") will require backporting or additional commits. We don't have a lot of time to get testing on this.

As I read the description of this bug, the issue can be summed up as, "stress the system, do CPU hotplug, then the system becomes unresponsive." The other issue is summarized as, "my system hangs during boot." Since the latter will prevent installation of 18.04 I regard it as the more serious issue.

Given all of this, I'm strongly inclined towards reverting these patches for the release, then we can look at SRU-ing them along with all necessary fixes. If the issue here is more serious than my reading of it (i.e. it will prevent booting and installation of 18.04) please speak up ASAP.

Hello Seth,

Without those patches CPU hoplug doesn't work but the issue related on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1765232 looks more urgent yet. I agree to revert it if necessary.

Thanks

Hi Seth,

Just another point is that it's related (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1765232) to kernel 4.15.0-15 but as per comment #11 these patches were applied in 4.15.0-16.

[bugproxy (bugproxy)]

------- Comment From <email address hidden> 2018-04-21 15:29 EDT-------
Ah, forget it, it's in 4.15.0-15.16 not 4.15.0-16. Anyway, you can revert it if required.

Thank you

[bugproxy (bugproxy)]

------- Comment From <email address hidden> 2018-04-27 16:54 EDT-------
I was told to write a small documentation describing what happens without the two patches mentioned in my comment #20.

We basically lose the ability to hotplug/unplug CPUs into virtual machines. Considering that blk-mq enqueue tasks using 'for_each_present_cpu()' (that iterates over CPUs in systems that don't support CPU hotplug - refer to those patches for technical details) we can also have problems if tasks are scheduled to CPUs present but not online.

So I suggest to *not* run VMs with extra CPUs to be hotplugged later, like:

-smp 8,sockets=1,cores=2,threads=8,maxcpus=16

or

<vcpu placement='static' current='8'>16</vcpu>

If we want a guest with 16 CPUs it's better to define it beforehand, for instance:

-smp 16,sockets=1,cores=2,threads=8

or

<vcpu placement='static'>16</vcpu>

[bugproxy (bugproxy)]

------- Comment From <email address hidden> 2018-05-09 18:03 EDT-------
addendum: According to my last investigation[1] the problem is in the blk_mq only. If we don't use blk_mq devices we can hotplug and hot-unplug CPUs without any problem.

Hello Frank,

Just to reinforce what Ziviani told in some comments before, the issue being discussed here, even though affecting CPU hot plug on Power, is not specifically related to Power. The issue we are seeing with CPU hot plug is just a side effect of a more serious bug in blk_mq.

The blk_mq problem that the patches pointed in this issue fix is a general blk_mq issue affecting all platforms that use this infrastructure. My understanding is that there has been lots of bug fixing in this area upstream lately.

[Manoj Iyer (manjo)]

These patches were accepted and are in route for 18.04.1.

[Brad Figg (brad-figg)]

This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-bionic' to 'verification-done-bionic'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-bionic' to 'verification-failed-bionic'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

Could you please verify the fix(es) with the Bionic kernel currently in -proposed?

Hello,

From the the development side it looks very good: both hotplug and hot unplug are working good.

Thank you very much,
