Testreport Master-branch (4.3, github June 3rd, 23:15 MTZ (+2)

* Hardware: 

Supermicro H8D3II+-F, 1x Opteron 2376 (AMD 5690+5670 chipset, IOMMU enabled,
iommu=1, iommu=pt, has bad bios: used patch to forced enabled IOMMU - some
ignored wrong tables)

20GB RAM (should''ve been 24Gigs, probing Bios messages next days)

AMD 6450 for passthrough

10GBit Broadcom NIC ("bridge1")

 

* Software: 

Ubuntu 12.04 x64, kernel 3.9.4 custom

 

* Guest operating systems:

Windows 2008 R2 x64 (HVM), old installation automatically (unintentionally)
migrated from KVM ;)

 

* Functionality tested:

xl

VGA passthrough

PV SCSI

PV net (10Gig, BCM57810)

 

* Comments:

It did not boot the installation-cd but directly the old (forgotten)
installation found in the 100gb-raw-image-file. Immediately updated to PV
drivers (SCSI, e1000@1GBit->Xen-Net@10Gbit, XEN PCI) and demanded reboot.
After reboot, the GPU Passthrough (AMD 6450 passive) was present and used
connected AV-Receiver->Beamer. Full System update and installation of newest
AMD-drivers (13.6 beta) sound device was present and working (AMD High
Definition, over HDMI->AV-Receiver).

 

IMPORTANT! It only went beyond "BSOD" when reducing RAM to <4GB!
This is
only badly written on any WIKI, I found it after many frustrating hours in a
forum. I thought this a KVM-problem. :/ On a 64bit-host a 64-bit-guest
should not have these problems.?!

 

Config:

#####

builder = "hvm"

vcpus = 2

memory = "2048"

 

##### Disks

disk = [

''file:/recording/virtual/w2k8r2x64.img,hda,w'',

''file:/recording/archiv/Systeme/w2k8r2x64/w2k8r2x64_X15-50367.img,hdc:cdrom,
r'',

#''phy:/dev/sr0,hdd:cdrom,r''

]

##### Hostname

name = "w2k8r2x64"

##### Networking

vif =
[''model=e1000,ip=172.16.1.252,mac=00:26:B9:48:74:d9,bridge=bridge1'']

##### Behavior

on_poweroff = "destroy"

on_reboot = "restart"

on_crash = "restart"

##### Monitoring

vnc=1               # Enable VNC

vncconsole=1    # 

gfx_passthrough = 1

pci = [''01:00.0'',''01:00.1'']

keymap = "de"

boot = "d"

Glad to hear it, thanks for reporting back.

From the date you give I suspect this was testing 
        
        commit 5cffb77c4072fa5b46700a2dbb3e46c5a54eba6d
        Author: Aravindh Puthiyaparambil <aravindp@cisco.com>

            x86/MCE: disable if MCE banks are not present
            
which was the only commit on that day, does that sound right?

The previous commit was
        commit b14fed71515bc6887d288169890c02f7bbe5d960
        Author: Christoph Egger <chegger@amazon.de>
        Date:   Thu May 30 14:24:57 2013 +0200
        
            tools/libxl: fix array subscript has type ''char''
so I guess it depends a bit on when github updates its copy.

This might be because of the issue/bug described in the xen-devel thread:
"[Xen-devel] GPU passthrough issue when VM is configured with 4G
memory"

There''s also a patch in that thread, feel free to try if that fixes
your issue with >= 4GB memory for the guest.

see that TestDays are getting increasing attention, and hence becoming
more and more useful! :-)

We''re planning to have another one one next Wednesday (proper announce
to follow in next days) during which we''ll test something *really*
close
to what Xen 4.3 will probably be... See you there. :-D
