[Bug 1656112] Re: Power S822LC (8335-GTB) failes KVM guest cert test with kvm_init_vcpu failed: Invalid argument

 

Are you able to test various kernels?  If so, it might be good to test
the mainline kernel to see if the bug is already fixed in mainline.  It
is available from:

 http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.10-rc3

Title:
  Power S822LC (8335-GTB) failes KVM guest cert test with kvm_init_vcpu
  failed: Invalid argument

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in linux source package in Xenial:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Upon running the virtualization test from the certification test
  suite, the kvm guest test fails with the following error:

  kvm_init_vcpu failed: Invalid argument

  This same test works on multiple other IBM Power 8 and Openpower
  servers. kvm-ok tells us that kvm virtualization is supported. I have
  tried with SMT enabled and disabled. I have tried the latest cloud
  image as well as previous onces we had saved. I have tried running the
  qemu-system-ppc64 command found below manually with the same error.

  
  The full output from the test is as follows:
