Title:
early virtio console output is lost
Status in QEMU:
Expired
Bug description:
This is broken in git and reportedly in 2.5 through 2.7.
Running a Linux kernel which includes a testsuite in initrd sometimes
produces no output.
Reportedly the console is sometimes not open when the early userspace
tries to log output resulting in either the testsuite terminating
early or not writing the output.
Workaround patch is here:
https://git.zx2c4.com/WireGuard/commit/?id=d2de8b0862a7fbb51a7f2f958d58f0efe4648259
reportedly you would get -EBADF there when no output is generated.
Also this reportedly happens with virtio console only, not virtio
serial port.
It seems that the author of said testsuite did not report the problem
so I write it down so it does not get lost.
test (in bash):
n=0 ; while [ $n -lt 100 ] && grep -m 1 -F "WireGuard Test Suite on
Linux 4.8.6" <( /opt/qemu/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 -nodefaults
-nographic -machine q35,accel=kvm -cpu host
-smp 2 -m 64M -object rng-
random,id=rng0,filename=/dev/urandom -device virtio-rng-
pci,rng=rng0 -device virtio-serial,max_ports=2
-chardev stdio,id=stdio -device virtconsole,chardev=stdio
-chardev file,id=status,path=result.txt -device
virtserialport,chardev=status -monitor none -kernel
wireguard-testing-harness-bzImage-e87cb2a7-145c-4985-907f-17e81fae329b
-append "console=hvc0 initcall_debug=1 loglevel=7" ) ; do echo $n ;
n=$(expr $n + 1) ; pkill -f wireguard ; done
This typically does 10-20 iterations but sometimes tens of iterations
run without issue.
