The error message is "qemu-system-x86_64: vhost_region_add_section: Overlapping but not coherent sections at 11a000". They mentioned that applying a specific patch fixed the issue, so I should look into what that patch does and how it relates to their problem. + +From their description, they're using QEMU with KVM acceleration, specifically on an AMD Ryzen system. The machine type is pc-q35-3.1, which uses the Q35 chipset model. They've also included a lot of details about their setup, including hardware specs and the command line arguments they use. + +The error seems to occur when adding sections in vhost, particularly with overlapping regions that aren't coherent. I know that vhost is involved in virtualized I/O for devices like network interfaces, so maybe this has something to do with how the hypervisor interacts with these devices. + +Looking at their command line, they're using a mem-path of /dev/hugepages and have mem-prealloc enabled, which suggests they're using hugetlbfs for memory. This could affect how QEMU allocates memory regions, especially if the alignment isn't handled properly. + +They mentioned that applying two patches helped: one to stop passing ram device sections in vhost and another to allocate synic as a ram device. The patch also fixed issues when running with pc-q35-4.0 machine type, where soundhw caused crashes. + +I think the core issue is how memory regions are being managed by QEMU's vhost code. Specifically, when initializing the SynIC (Hypervisor SYNchronous Interrupt Controller), it creates two memory subregions that might not be aligned with what vhost expects. The patch probably adjusts how these regions are handled so they don't conflict. + +The user also noted that this problem was fixed in QEMU 5.0 after applying their patch, which is now included as part of the release. So for future users encountering similar issues, updating to a newer QEMU version or applying the patch would be the solution. + +In summary, the error stems from overlapping memory regions not being coherent during vhost operations, especially when using certain machine types and hardware configurations. The fix ensures that these regions are properly aligned or managed so they don't cause conflicts. +</think> + +The user is encountering an issue with QEMU where the error message "qemu-system-x86_64: vhost_region_add_section: Overlapping but not coherent sections at 11a000" appears, which suggests a problem with memory region management in the vhost code. This occurs when running a VM with specific configurations, particularly on AMD Ryzen hardware using the pc-q35-3.1 machine type. + +The user has successfully applied a patch that fixes this issue by adjusting how certain memory regions are handled. Specifically, the patch stops passing ram device sections in vhost and allocates synic as a ram device, preventing overlapping sections from causing conflicts. This fix is included in QEMU 5.0, so updating to this version or applying the patch manually will resolve the problem. + +In summary: + +- **Problem**: Overlapping but not coherent memory regions during vhost operations. +- **Solution**: Apply the patch to correctly manage these regions or update to QEMU 5.0. +- **Outcome**: The issue is resolved with the fix, and no further errors are observed. + +The user can proceed by updating their QEMU installation to version 5.0 or later, which includes the necessary fixes. \ No newline at end of file |
