hi , I am confused by pinvcpu before migration.
I have two physical machine. One has 12 CPUs (E5645 2*6 ) as src and the other
has 8 CPUs (2*4) as des.
Step 1 : VM is running on src host (E5645 2*6 CPUs) with its VCPUs pinned on
some PCPUs
Step 2 :Because PCPU count is different between src and des , I should pin
VCPUs to all PCPUs .
virsh vcpupin vmname 0 0-11 --config --live
Step 3: Do migrate ,and it failed with error in des libvirt log "Unable to set
cpuset.cpus: Invalid argument"
I find that VM's cpu bitmap on src turns to <vcpupin vcpu='0' cpuset='0-11'/> .
vm start fails on des due to its pin info cpuset='0-11' in vm->def.
In usual case, after I pin VCPU to all PCPU, vcpupin info will be deleted in
vm->def.
-- qemuDomainPinVcpuFlags
-- if (virBitmapIsAllSet(pcpumap, pCpuCount))
doReset = true;
-- if (doReset)
if (virDomainVcpuPinDel(vm->def, vcpu) < 0)
I debug libvirt and find that on src which PCPU count is 12 (2*6)
virBitmapIsAllSet(pcpumap, pCpuCount) return false
pcpumap->max_bit is 16. pcpumap = virBitmapNewData(cpumap, maplen) --> bitmap
= virBitmapNew(len * CHAR_BIT); //here len is 2.
Although my physical machine only has 12 PCPUs , but here pcpumap->max_bit is
len*CHAR_BIT . So bitmap is 0000 1111 1111 1111 ,and it's not ALL SET (ALL SET
is 1111 1111 1111 1111).
I tried to fix the bug in this case , but I have not found a good solution.
Any suggestions will be thankful.
Best Regards,
