    • RE: Ubuntu Live iso Hangs on XCP-ng 8.1.0; Guest Reports: 'watchdog: BUG: soft lockup' #371

      The final note on our problem:

      • It was not linked to the Linux kernel nor XCP-ng
      • The VM image we were using was built from an Azure VM and contained some Hyper-V libraries. They were the cause of the instability.

      Thus again, not a XCP-ng problem. Sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for your support.

      So on our servers, the C-STATES was already disabled.
      We are following another lead: to upgrade the linux Kernel to 5.4 (see https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=204071).
      We won't be able to test before sometimes but I'll let you know. If this is the problem then this is not related with XCP-ng.
      Sorry for the late feedback.

      Hi stormi and thank you for the information.
      I'll check the C-STATES status and will disable it if enable next time I will be on site (home working for now).
      I'll let you know the output, especially if the problem stops occurring after a few weeks.
      Any other suggestion is of course welcome.

      Hi Olivier,
      I understand the importance of an NTP server. In the industry I am in, there is usually no Internet access when we deploy on site (for security reasons).
      I'll ask but I don't think these networks provide a NTP server.
      Do you think this could be somehow linked to the problem we are experiencing?

      Below are the logs with better formatting. Let me know if you expect a specific one.

    • RE: Ubuntu Live iso Hangs on XCP-ng 8.1.0; Guest Reports: 'watchdog: BUG: soft lockup' #371

      Hi Olivier,
      I experienced the problem at 14:39:09 today (23/05/2020).
      Below some data, hoping it can help.

      Context:

      • 1 single physical machine: Server Dell PowerEdge R440 with Intel Xeon Silver 4110 (2,1GHz, 8C/16T, cache 11Mo, 9,6GT/s, 85W, Turbo, HT), mémoire DDR4 2400MHz
      • XCP-ng version 8.0
      • 2 imported VMs with Ubuntu server 18.04.1
      • Only one VM sometimes freezes (6 CPU). The other one never does (1 CPU).
      • The problem occurred when deploying a Kubernetes cluster from the other VM (using Rancher) to the one that froze. Thus, network and CPU were actively used at the time.
        Note that I did that same operation around 5 times before on the exact same 2 VMs (deployment tests) with no problem.
      • See attached screenshot of the frozen VM console output.VMConsoleOutput.PNG

      Server installation notes

      Actually I don't see the Xeon Silver 4110 in Citrix HCL for Hypervisor 8.0.0/8.0.1.
      So I don't know if it is worth looking for the root cause.
      However I note that wsciaroni reported CPU is listed (Xeon(R) E5-2640 v3)

      @olivierlambert
      You are absolutely right for the reporting part.
      The problem happens randomly and we haven't identified a pattern that would trigger it in a deterministic way.
      Now it is reassuring that the problem seems very specific. On our side it occurs on two servers with the exact same configuration.

      I would be happy to report details next time it happens. As to be efficient, I would appreciate some specifics on what to report.

    • RE: Ubuntu Live iso Hangs on XCP-ng 8.1.0; Guest Reports: 'watchdog: BUG: soft lockup' #371

      Hi all,
      We are experimenting the same error but with XCP-ng version 8.0.
      Our configuration:

      • XCP-ng version 8.0
      • VM with Ubuntu server 18.04.1
      • Server Dell PowerEdge R440 with Intel Xeon Silver 4110 (2,1GHz, 8C/16T, cache 11Mo, 9,6GT/s, 85W, Turbo, HT), mémoire DDR4 2400MHz

      We don't have any problem deploying our VM image with Ubuntu server 18.04.1, but randomly when the VM executes we have the following error:
      watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#1 stuck for ...
      Then no other choice than restarting the VM.

      Note that we have the following warnings after the error:
      rcu: INFO: rcu_sched detected expedited stalls on CPUs/tasks: ...
      rcu: blocking rcu_nodes structure: ...

      As we are getting ready to go to production in the coming month, we will have to change hypervisor if a fix cannot be made. I'm sad to see that the error is still present in v8.1
