[Bug 1538049] Re: xenstore crashes with SIGBUS in domain_can_read()
Installed a system with Debian testing and the crash does not happen there. That left two things: the additional security fixes we got or the kernel. And it was not the security fixes... Should have tried a different kernel sooner. Neither an old 4.2 based one nor the pending 4.4 are causing this. Only the current 4.3 based one. Maybe some Xen related stable patches did get mis-applied or not applied at all. Who knows. Will concentrate on the coming 4.4 and if I am happy, close this report. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to xen in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1538049 Title: xenstore crashes with SIGBUS in domain_can_read() To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xen/+bug/1538049/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
[Bug 1538049] Re: xenstore crashes with SIGBUS in domain_can_read()
Hint from upstream. Sounds plausible that this might be the upstream fix: 9c17d96500f78 "xen/gntdev: Grant maps should not be subject to NUMA balancing" I guess 4.3 started to be more aggressive there since I never saw this before 4.3 and there even on a non-NUMA system. But having a grant-table mapping taken away from the dom0 kernel without xenstored being involved would explain it tripping over that now bad pointer. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to xen in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1538049 Title: xenstore crashes with SIGBUS in domain_can_read() To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xen/+bug/1538049/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
[Bug 1538049] Re: xenstore crashes with SIGBUS in domain_can_read()
Crash also happens if dom0 is restricted to a single, pinned vCPU. So I guess it isn't an inconsistency. Only vague explanation I can think of is that the hypervisor for some reason invalidates the mapping without dom0(and xenstored running there) realizing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to xen in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1538049 Title: xenstore crashes with SIGBUS in domain_can_read() To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xen/+bug/1538049/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
[Bug 1538049] Re: xenstore crashes with SIGBUS in domain_can_read()
Hm, when repeating with a xenstored that prints additional trace
messages about domain->interface values, I now got a case where the
SIGBUS seems to have happened while the interface pointer looks valid.

[Bug 1538049] Re: xenstore crashes with SIGBUS in domain_can_read()
For the recent crashes the pointer seemed always consistent with previous mappings. Wondering whether the mapping might be invalidated by the hypervisor side. For additional information, when I start the domU, grant table debug shows the following at the beginning: (XEN) grant-table for remote domain:1 (v1) (XEN) [ 0]0 0x212992 0x0002 0 0x212992 0x19 (XEN) [ 1]0 0x212991 0x0002 0 0x212991 0x19 (XEN) [ 8]0 0x1d26b7 0x0001 0 0x1d26b7 0x19 when xenstored crashes, the middle entry goes away. But its impossible to say whether it goes away before the crash or just as a result of it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to xen in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1538049 Title: xenstore crashes with SIGBUS in domain_can_read() To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xen/+bug/1538049/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
[Bug 1538049] Re: xenstore crashes with SIGBUS in domain_can_read()
Not sure this has some meaning or is just a red herring but comparing the grant-rable debug output with Wily (Xen-4.5) it looks mostly similar except the entry #8 which has back then the same pin number as the other two...
