Summary | 0018539: kernel 3.10.0-1160.80.1.el7.x86_64 on Xeon E55xx crashes upon KVM startup | ||||
Description | Attempt to start qemu-kvm VM under kernel-3.10.0-1160.80.1.el7.x86_64 freezes any of 5 workstations with dual E5507 (all work OK under kernel-3.10.0-1160.76.1.el7.x86_64 or any previous version). Boot of the previous kernel (3.10.0-1160.76.1.el7.x86_64 ) resolves the issue. The workstations with E5-2609, E5-2650 or E5-2630 are not affected - all of them run qemu-kvm VM under kernel-3.10.0-1160.80.1.el7.x86_64 without problems. | ||||
Steps To Reproduce | (1) Install kernel-3.10.0-1160.80.1.el7.x86_64 on a Xeon E5507 system (2) Reboot (3) Start qemu-kvm => system freezes | ||||
Additional Information | Some more information could be found on CentOS mailing list, thread "[CentOS] Trouble with kernel-3.10.0-1160.80.1.el7.x86_64", including similar observation on Centos 8 with kernel-4.18.0-372.32.1.el8_6.x86_64 | ||||

This looks like a regression that can only be fixed by RedHat. Please open a bug at bugzilla.redhat.com and let them know about the issue. Once they release a fixed kernel, CentOS will pick it automatically. | |
Is there an update on this? My system was also affected by this, and the server no longer boots with the latest kernel version. I had to boot the second kernel option (the old one). | |
Any updates to fix problems like this have to come from Red Hat for RHEL first and then they get rebuilt for CentOS. You'd need to find someone at RH that could tell you the status of their fix for RHEL... | |
For those experiencing this bug, hopefully some of these discussions will either get Red Hat's attention or lead to someone finding a workaround: * red hat bug report[1] * forum discussion[2] * mailing list discussion[3] [1] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2143438 [2] https://forums.centos.org/viewtopic.php?f=48&t=79747&sid=843ac080c6058f07976c5805f92aa3d4 [3] https://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/2022-November/715739.html |

No-one from Red Hat ever reads the forums and I doubt if many read the CentOS mailing list either. The correct place to discuss this would be in the bugzilla entry. | |
According to the RHBZ referenced in note #39039, the fix is in kernel 3.10.0-1160.87.1.el7. So hopefully it will be in the next kernel update. | |
The fix is in kernel-3.10.0-1160.88.1.el7. | |
