** Description changed: [SRU, Xenial] When running stress-ng on zVM and LPAR we are hitting SIGBUS errors because we have a sparsely allocated mmap'd backing file which due to over commit and a full file system causes pages not to be mapped in and causes memory accesses on unbacked pages to trigger a SIGBUS. [REPRODUCER + FIX] Run stress-ng --mmap 64 --maximize on a filesystem that is very nearly full and the SIGBUS triggers and the stressor exits early with SIGBUS. With the fix, the SIGBUS is caught and the stressor can continue without premature early exit. [REGRESSION POTENTIAL] I am requesting syncing with 0.05.24 micro release as this contains the fix plus a few SIGSEGV stack trapping fixes. stress-ng is a universe leaf project and the fixes touch just a few of the stress tests. These have been regression checked on various architectures and the code passes static analysis on cppcheck, CoverityScan and clang's scan-build, so regression potential is minimal. - - Changelog: - - Makefile: bump version - stress-mmap: handle SIGBUS signals (LP: #1569468) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Running stress-ng on s390 in all three modes. This seems to work ok in z/KVM, however, on zVM and LPAR as of a few days ago on Xenial the mmap stressor has started failing. I tried to get detailed logs but either don't know the correct switches or they simply aren't there. Here is the output when I used --log-file and --verbose on an LPAR: root@s1lp10-jefflane:~# less stress-ng-mmap-fail.log stress-ng: debug: [179421] 4 processors online, 4 processors configured stress-ng: info: [179421] dispatching hogs: 4 mmap stress-ng: debug: [179421] cache allocate: reducing cache level from L3 (too high) to L2 stress-ng: info: [179421] cache allocate: default cache size: 2048K stress-ng: debug: [179421] starting stressors stress-ng: debug: [179422] stress-ng-mmap: started [179422] (instance 0) stress-ng: debug: [179423] stress-ng-mmap: started [179423] (instance 1) stress-ng: debug: [179424] stress-ng-mmap: started [179424] (instance 2) stress-ng: debug: [179421] 4 stressors spawned stress-ng: debug: [179425] stress-ng-mmap: started [179425] (instance 3) stress-ng: debug: [179424] stress-ng-mmap: exited [179424] (instance 2) stress-ng: debug: [179422] stress-ng-mmap: exited [179422] (instance 0) stress-ng: debug: [179421] process [179422] terminated stress-ng: debug: [179421] process 179423 (stress-ng-mmap) terminated on signal: 7 (Bus error) stress-ng: debug: [179421] process [179423] terminated stress-ng: debug: [179421] process [179424] terminated stress-ng: debug: [179421] process 179425 (stress-ng-mmap) terminated on signal: 7 (Bus error) stress-ng: debug: [179421] process [179425] terminated stress-ng: info: [179421] unsuccessful run completed in 300.68s (5 mins, 0.68 secs) That is the only info I have for the failure, unfortunately.
