cpus: Fix event order on resume of stopped guest
When resume of a stopped guest immediately runs into block device
errors, the BLOCK_IO_ERROR event is sent before the RESUME event.
Reproducer:
1. Create a scratch image
$ dd if=/dev/zero of=scratch.img bs=1M count=100
Size doesn't actually matter.
2. Prepare blkdebug configuration:
$ cat >blkdebug.conf <<EOF
[inject-error]
event = "write_aio"
errno = "5"
EOF
Note that errno 5 is EIO.
3. Run a guest with an additional scratch disk, i.e. with additional
arguments
-drive if=none,id=scratch-drive,format=raw,werror=stop,file=blkdebug:blkdebug.conf:scratch.img
-device virtio-blk-pci,id=scratch,drive=scratch-drive
The blkdebug part makes all writes to the scratch drive fail with
EIO. The werror=stop pauses the guest on write errors.
4. Connect to the QMP socket e.g. like this:
$ socat UNIX:/your/qmp/socket READLINE,history=$HOME/.qmp_history,prompt='QMP> '
Issue QMP command 'qmp_capabilities':
QMP> { "execute": "qmp_capabilities" }
5. Boot the guest.
6. In the guest, write to the scratch disk, e.g. like this:
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/vdb count=1
Do double-check the device specified with of= is actually the
scratch device!
7. Issue QMP command 'cont':
QMP> { "execute": "cont" }
After step 6, I get a BLOCK_IO_ERROR event followed by a STOP event. Good.
After step 7, I get BLOCK_IO_ERROR, then RESUME, then STOP. Not so
good; I'd expect RESUME, then BLOCK_IO_ERROR, then STOP.
The funny event order confuses libvirt: virsh -r domstate DOMAIN
--reason reports "paused (unknown)" rather than "paused (I/O error)".
The culprit is vm_prepare_start().
/* Ensure that a STOP/RESUME pair of events is emitted if a
* vmstop request was pending. The BLOCK_IO_ERROR event, for
* example, according to documentation is always followed by
* the STOP event.
*/
if (runstate_is_running()) {
qapi_event_send_stop(&error_abort);
res = -1;
} else {
replay_enable_events();
cpu_enable_ticks();
runstate_set(RUN_STATE_RUNNING);
vm_state_notify(1, RUN_STATE_RUNNING);
}
/* We are sending this now, but the CPUs will be resumed shortly later */
qapi_event_send_resume(&error_abort);
return res;
When resuming a stopped guest, we take the else branch before we get
to sending RESUME. vm_state_notify() runs virtio_vmstate_change(),
among other things. This restarts I/O, triggering the BLOCK_IO_ERROR
event.
Reshuffle vm_prepare_start() to send the RESUME event earlier.
Fixes RHBZ 1566153.
