Not able to launch guests in ppc64le P9 OPAL Description of problem: Not able to launch guests in ppc64le P9 OPAL Steps to reproduce: 1. In a RHEL8 using 4.18.0-305.3.1.el8_4.ppc64le create a Fedora CoreOS VM using kernel-5.15.17-200.fc35.ppc64le. 2. Inside the FCOS vm run: ``` virt-install --import \ --name buildvm-ppc64le-fcos01.iad2.fedoraproject.org \ --memory=32768,maxmemory=32768 \ --vcpus=16,maxvcpus=16 \ --feature nested-hv=on \ --network bridge=br0,model=virtio,mac=RANDOM \ --autostart \ --memballoon virtio \ --watchdog default \ --rng /dev/random \ --noautoconsole \ --disk path=$PWD/fcos-ppc64le-builder.ign,format=raw,readonly=on,serial=ignition \ --disk bus=virtio,path=/dev/vg_guests/buildvm-ppc64le-fcos01.iad2.fedoraproject.org,cache=unsafe,io=threads ``` 3. Try to run it again and you will get: ``` KVM: Failed to create TCE64 table for liobn 0x71000002 KVM: Failed to create TCE64 table for liobn 0x80000000 KVM: unknown exit, hardware reason ffffffffffffffc9 NIP 0000000000000100 LR 0000000000000000 CTR 0000000000000000 XER 0000000000000000 CPU#0 MSR 8000000000001000 HID0 0000000000000000 HF 6c000004 iidx 3 didx 3 TB 00000000 00000000 DECR 0 GPR00 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 000000007fe00000 GPR04 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 GPR08 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 GPR12 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 GPR16 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 GPR20 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 GPR24 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 GPR28 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 CR 00000000 [ - - - - - - - - ] RES ffffffffffffffff SRR0 0000000000000000 SRR1 0000000000000000 PVR 00000000004e1202 VRSAVE 0000000000000000 SPRG0 0000000000000000 SPRG1 0000000000000000 SPRG2 0000000000000000 SPRG3 0000000000000000 SPRG4 0000000000000000 SPRG5 0000000000000000 SPRG6 0000000000000000 SPRG7 0000000000000000 HSRR0 0000000000000000 HSRR1 0000000000000000 CFAR 0000000000000000 LPCR 0000000000560413 PTCR 0000000000000000 DAR 0000000000000000 DSISR 0000000000000000 ``` Additional information: Fedora xml: ``` buildvm-ppc64le-fcos01.iad2.fedoraproject.org ed30c95e-b7c0-4c25-a6ba-b739459f101b 33554432 33554432 16 /machine hvm POWER9 destroy restart destroy /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm
