* xen 4.15.5: msr_relaxed required for MSR 0x1a2 @ 2023-11-16 16:15 James Dingwall 2023-11-16 16:32 ` Andrew Cooper 0 siblings, 1 reply; 11+ messages in thread From: James Dingwall @ 2023-11-16 16:15 UTC (permalink / raw) To: xen-devel [-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1002 bytes --] Hi, Per the msr_relaxed documentation: "If using this option is necessary to fix an issue, please report a bug." After recently upgrading an environment from Xen 4.14.5 to Xen 4.15.5 we started experiencing a BSOD at boot with one of our Windows guests. We found that enabling `msr_relaxed = 1` in the guest configuration has resolved the problem. With a debug build of Xen and `hvm_debug=2048` on the command line the following messages were caught as the BSOD happened: (XEN) [HVM:11.0] <vmx_msr_read_intercept> ecx=0x1a2 (XEN) vmx.c:3298:d11v0 RDMSR 0x000001a2 unimplemented (XEN) d11v0 VIRIDIAN CRASH: 1e ffffffffc0000096 fffff80b8de81eb5 0 0 I found that MSR 0x1a2 is MSR_TEMPERATURE_TARGET and from that this patch series from last month: https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/xen-devel/list/?series=796550 Picking out just a small part of that fixes the problem for us. Although the the patch is against 4.15.5 I think it would be relevant to more recent releases too.

The Viridian Crash isn't about the RDMSR itself - it's presumably collateral damage shortly thereafter. Does filling in 0 for that MSR also resolve the issue? It's model specific and we absolutely cannot pass it through from real hardware like that. Thanks, ~Andrew ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 11+ messages in thread

The guest is running Windows 10 and the crash happens in a proprietary hardware driver. A little bit of knowledge as they say was enough to stop the crash but I don't understand the impact of what I've actually done...

What's not really clear to me though is whether he'd also be okay to put a (cleaned up) patch along these lines into the tree. Andrew? Jan ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 11+ messages in thread

Hello James, We have in the past exposed MSRs in order to workaround OSes assumptions about such MSRs being unconditionally present, so it's not completely unacceptable that we might end up exposing this if strictly required. My question would be, is it possible for such driver to get fixed in order to avoid unconditionally poking at MSR_TEMPERATURE_TARGET, or that's impossible? From the Intel manual it seems like MSR_TEMPERATURE_TARGET is unconditionally present on certain models, and hence we might have no other option but to end up adding a dummy handler for reads. I do wonder whether returning all 0 is correct, as then the "thermal throttling" would be enable when the CPU temp > 0C, which is unrealistic. I assume that wouldn't matter much as long as drivers don't choke on such weird value. Thanks, Roger. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 11+ messages in thread
