Thread-topic: Megaraid SAS driver failing in Xen-3.3.0 but was working in Xen-3.2.2-rc3

 

Hi Randy,

 

I am attaching the complete output in a file.

 

But for your reference, a part of it I am pasting in the body.

==================================================================================

(XEN) PCI add device 02:0e.0

(XEN) [VT-D]iommu.c:775: iommu_page_fault: iommu->reg = ffff828bfff55000

(XEN) [VT-D]iommu.c:744: iommu_fault_status: Fault Overflow

(XEN) [VT-D]iommu.c:729: iommu_fault:DMA Write: 2:e.0 addr cddf2000 REASON 2 iommu->reg = ffff828bfff55000

(XEN) print_vtd_entries: iommu = ffff8300cde0db00 bdf = 2:e:0 gmfn = cddf2

(XEN)     root_entry = ffff83012bfe5000

(XEN)     root_entry[2] = 12779e001

(XEN)     context = ffff83012779e000

(XEN)     context[70] = 0_0

(XEN)     ctxt_entry[70] not present

(XEN) PCI add device 00:1b.0

(XEN) PCI remove device 02:0e.0

==================================================================================

 

02:0e.0 is the pci id of Megaraid SAS controller.

For some reason you can see that the device is removed.

I guess this output would give you some idea.

 

 

Thx,

Venkat

Venkat,

 

Can you post the serial console output?

On Xen-3.3.0, domain0 Megaraid SAS (SAS 1068 controller) driver is not loading correctly if vtd support in Xen is enabled.

It fails at the point of initializing firmware.

 

I wasn’t seeing this error with Xen-3.2.2-rc3 (Unstable version), though with vtd disabled in Xen-3.3.0, it is working.

 

Looks like a degrade problem.

 

Any clues?

Thx,

Venkat
