I move HaveRunPost = 1 to handle_post() (after make_bios_writable()), and I have tested for 1 day with continuously resetting, it seems works well! Does following patch have some side effects?
Thanks. I'll be traveling for the next two weeks. I'll take a look when I return.
Hi, Kevin: Welcome journey back! I keep on this problem for about 1 month. Here, I provide some detail information and wish you could pay a little time thinking about this.
My test script is very easy:
#!/bin/bash vmname=$1 while [ 1 ] do virsh reset $vmname & virsh reset $vmname & sleep 5 done
1. This problem seems have relations with PIC irq0 and host CPU feature: On one of my host, this problem never happens while on another, it's very easy to happen (both of hosts have the same kmod,qemu,libvirt and SeaBIOS, SeaVGABIOS, except for the CPU feature).
2. SeaBIOS log tells me once VM halts at allocate VGA stack, it also has something wrong printing handle_smp log.
3. If i disconfig CONFIG_VGA_ALLOCATE_EXTRA_STACK, the VM will halt at Grub stage, and SeaVGABIOS log stop at printing "set VGA mode 114", then BIOS will loop handle_pwhic1.
For now, i guess whether if SeaBIOS can not handle the hardware interrupt correctly when a host CPU has some advanced feature (x2apic? avx? xsave? tsc-deadline?).
