Description

Hi,

I have a Window7 VDI file which works perfectly with VB 5.0.20 when I run a older kernel like 4.5.

But with the same VDI file VB crashes under kernel 4.6.0 giving VirtualBox - Guru Meditation A critical error has occurred while running the virtual machine and the machine execution has been stopped.

This is Gentoo. Does it use the same configuration for Linux 4.5 as for Linux 4.6 or is there any difference?

Hello,

I can confirm this issue running openSUSE 13.2 x64 with kernel 4.6.0. It makes no diffenrence if a Windows-VM or Linux-VM is started. I get error code -2708: Guru Meditation -2708 (VERR_VMM_SET_JMP_ABORTED_RESUME)

I also did a rollback to kernel 4.5.4 using the same configuration as kernel 4.6.0. There were no crashes anymore. So it seems to be related to some change in the kernel 4.6.0

After looking at Archlinux change for kernel config file, I noticed that CONFIG_X86_INTEL_MEMORY_PROTECTION_KEYS seems to be guilty here. It is also enabled in both config-4.6.0-gentoo and config_4.6.0_Intel

Looking at this option man page...

http://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/X86_INTEL_MEMORY_PROTECTION_KEYS.html

Just an educated guess, of course :)

Thx for the hint. Compiling a new kernel without CONFIG_X86_INTEL_MEMORY_PROTECTION_KEYS enabled at the moment. Will come back to you...

Replying to Platypus:

No luck. Got same error again...

Ouch. I was looking at changes in kernel config between 4.5.x and 4.6.0. This option was always present.

Could be CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PKEYS ? CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ABSOLUTE_PERCPU ? CONFIG_KALLSYMS_BASE_RELATIVE ? ONFIG_HAVE_STACK_VALIDATION ? CONFIG_ARCH_USES_HIGH_VMA_FLAGS ?

All options were added in 4.6.x code.

Having the same problem with Virtualbox 5.0.20 here on kernel 4.6 (gentoo, not sure if it worked with < 4.6).

In my case vbox crashes when running win10 / installing win7 in a fresh vm.

Attached both the log and the kernel config.

comment:11 by Frank Mehnert, 8 years ago

Unfortunately I'm still unable to reproduce this problem on a Debian host with a self-compiled vanilla 4.6.0 kernel. So it's most likely that a compile option is responsible for these problems. So far no time to check every single difference between my config and the Gentoo / ArchLinux config.

comment:12 by fbe, 8 years ago

Hi frank,

can you post the kernel configuration and your compiler you were using on your debian test? I'll retry it with the vanilla sources (unpatched) 4.6.1 and report if this doesn't work.

Update: problem exists with the unpatched vanilla sources and my posted kernel configuration in 4.6.1, too.

GCC-Version used for kernel / vbox compilation: 4.9.3

fbe, done. I'm using gcc 5.3.1 on Debian.

comment:14 by fbe, 8 years ago

Additional information: my vbox doesn't crash immediately. For example i can perform the first setup steps for a windows 7 installation and it crashes after the first reboot of the installation.

My win10 machine crashes suddently, too.

comment:15 by fbe, 8 years ago

as mentioned by FredBezies i can confirm that deactivating

CONFIG_X86_INTEL_MEMORY_PROTECTION_KEYS

in my vanilla 4.6.1 helps (vbox working stable now).

Edit: Problem still exists, but my windows 7 installation in virtualbox crashes "later" than with activated MEMORY_PROTECTION_KEYS :(

Kernel .config of my Gentoo kernel 4.6.0 machine

comment:17 by Anybody, 8 years ago

I'm also suffering from this problem. Running a Gentoo Host with 4.6.0 kernel and two guests. Guest "Windows 10" has not crashed so far, while guest "CentOS 7" gets stuck about once a day at random times of day. The reason why the Windows guest has not crashed might be that it's not used heavily. But then again the CentOS guest crashes at random times and not at times of high usage. So perhaps it is something else.

The difference in guest configuration is: more RAM (7GB for CentOS, 2 for Windows), more CPU (4 for CentOS, 1 for Windows) and two options under System: PAE/NX and KVM Paravirtualization was on for CentOS and off for the Windows guests.

You can find my kernel .config and the crashlog in the attachments directly above. I have now downgraded to kernel 4.5.7.

Hi all,

for me it seesm to to work stable now:

  • updated to VirtualBox 5.1 BETA2
  • rebuild my kernel and played around. You can find my working config as attachement

My Windows 7 VM is running stable now since a few hours. Also the openSUSE VMs do not crash anymore. I had three running VMs in parallel and produced heavy load. Everything is working fine so far.

comment:19 by Frank Mehnert, 8 years ago

Looks to me like CONFIG_PREEMPT_NOTIFIERS=y is responsible. If this option is set, all is fine. Without this option, the above Guru is raised. This option depends on CONFIG_VIRTUALIZATION.

comment:20 by Frank Mehnert, 8 years ago

In other words: I believe that enabling CONFIG_VIRTUALIZATION works around this bug.

comment:21 by fbe, 8 years ago

Hi frank,

i enabled CONFIG_PREEMPT_NOTIFIERS by activating KVM support (which is required for MPREEMPT_NOTIFIERS, too).

Result is, that my virtualbox kernel module crashes when starting a new machine..

sorry, messed up my installed kernels while debugging, didn't rebuild the virtualbox modules properly, so please ignore this.

fbe, did you recompile your VBox kernel modules after you booted into the kernel with the new configuration?

comment:23 by fbe, 8 years ago

Hi frank,

sorry, my fault, messed up my kernel builds.

With CONFIG_PREEMPT_NOTIFIERS enabled i can confirm that it works here on gentoo with 5.0.20 and kernel 4.6.2 (amd64), no more crashes yet.

comment:24 by Frank Mehnert, 8 years ago

FYI, 5.0.22 has not a fix for this problem. At the moment we only have the above workaround but no fix available (yet).

comment:25 by FredBezies, 8 years ago

Well, CONFIG_PREEMPT_NOTIFIERS=y is not a working workaround for Archlinux based system.

It is enabled on archlinux kernel, and even with 5.0.22, I got 2 crashes in 5 minutes while trying to install a Manjaro based system.

Attachment: config-4.6.0-pf1_hekarath added

comment:26 by Hekarath, 8 years ago

Issue still present with 5.0.22. Checked on Gentoo Linux with kernel 4.6.0-pf1 and 4.6.2-gentoo. I'm using voluntary preemption, since preemptive kernel is not supported by Broadcom STA driver:

$ grep PREEMPT .config
# CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE is not set
CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY=y
# CONFIG_PREEMPT is not set

VirtualBox version:

$ vboxmanage -v
5.0.22_Gentoor108108

Module versions:

$ modinfo vboxdrv vboxnetflt vboxnetadp | grep '^filename:\|^version:'
filename:       /lib/modules/4.6.0-pf1/misc/vboxdrv.ko
version:        5.0.22 r108108 (0x00240000)
filename:       /lib/modules/4.6.0-pf1/misc/vboxnetflt.ko
version:        5.0.22 r108108 ((0xA2CDe001U))
filename:       /lib/modules/4.6.0-pf1/misc/vboxnetadp.ko
version:        5.0.22 r108108 ((0xA2CDe001U))

VBox.log (VBox.log_hekarath.log) and kernel config (config-4.6.0-pf1_hekarath) attached.

For 5.0.22r, the CONFIG_PREEMPT_NOTIFIERS=y is work for the kernel 4.6.2 customized on Debian sid, x86_64. But disabling 2d and 3d hardware acceleration is also needed.

The most recent 5.0 test builds have a fix for this problem, at least it works here. Could you confirm?

comment:29 by Frank Mehnert, 8 years ago

Any feedback yet for these builds?

For what it's worth, on my setup, the 5.0.23-108298 build no longer has Guru Mediations. I've only been testing it for an hour though, but had a pretty sure way to reproduce them.

Host kernel is 4.6.2.

Resolution: fixed
Status: newclosed

Fix is part of VBox 5.0.24.
