Download Debian ppc64el mini.iso: + http://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/sid/main/installer-ppc64el/current/images/netboot/mini.iso +2. Run qemu on the host. Ensure that it runs with more than one CPUs. With a single CPU, I was unable + to reproduce the crash. + qemu-system-ppc64 -M pseries -cpu power9 -smp 2 -m 512 -cdrom mini.iso +3. SLOF prints the version info on the serial device, and proceeds to boot. +4. After a few seconds, the GRUB menu appears on the VGA screen. +5. Select one of the install options (I have tested with Default and Expert), and wait + for the Debian's text-mode installer (blue-gray-red) screen to appear. +6. Click Machine->Reset (or enter system_reset on the qemu monitor). +7. Notice that, on the serial device, SLOF has printed the version info. That is, the system + has reset and is attempting to boot again. +8. On the host cmd prompt, qemu dies after printing this fatal error and spewing the + contents of the CPU registers: + + qemu: fatal: Trying to deliver HV exception (MSR) 70 with no HV support + <CPU contents> (See attached out.txt for details) + Aborted (core dumped) + + +The HV exception is either + (a) 70 = HISI, which occurs when NIP contains an outright bogus or inaccessible value, or + (b) 69 = HDSI, which occurs when NIP happens to contain a somewhat saner value, and + the cpu attempts to run the instruction at that address. + +The exception can occur on either of the CPUs. It occurs when qemu is running the SLOF +code. + + + +If one continues with the iso, and installs the OS in the +guest, the rebooting of the guest from within the guest +OS too causes qemu to exit fatally. So, one can run +'systemctl reboot' or 'reboot' within the guest OS and +see qemu crash (immediately after SLOF prints version, +etc. as part of the reboot sequence, as described before). + +The QEMU project is currently considering to move its bug tracking to +another system. For this we need to know which bugs are still valid +and which could be closed already. Thus we are setting older bugs to +"Incomplete" now. + +If you still think this bug report here is valid, then please switch +the state back to "New" within the next 60 days, otherwise this report +will be marked as "Expired". Or please mark it as "Fix Released" if +the problem has been solved with a newer version of QEMU already. + +Thank you and sorry for the inconvenience. + +[Expired for QEMU because there has been no activity for 60 days.] + |
