Description
Observation¶
openQA test in scenario microos-Tumbleweed-MicroOS-Image-x86_64-microos_qemu@64bit fails in
kvm
Did not really spot what is going on - but whenever this runs on OW4, it passes, while it fails on OW21/OW22
Test suite description¶
Reproducible¶
Fails since (at least) Build 20230816
Expected result¶
Last good: 20230815 (or more recent)
Further details¶
Always latest result in this scenario: latest
- Related to action #134285: [tools] Openqa bootstrap: test fails in test_results size:M auto_review:"Test died: no candidate needle with tag.+openqa-testresult" added
With the qemu monitor and debug logs it's visible that KVM never makes any progress. It tries to run the vcpu but it never runs the first instruction. IP is stuck at FFF0.
I suspect a kernel bug, probably on the (openQA) VM host side. Using the latest TW kernel on the worker didn't help though.
- Status changed from New to Rejected
Confirmed as product bug meanwhile.
I used ow19 for performing some tests (and building test kernels. The workers are nice kernel build hosts!).
We could identify that the latest upstream kernel 6.5-rc7 works (while -rc6 is broken). I'll keep ow19 reserved for a bit still to test a kernel with backported fixes.
- Status changed from Rejected to Blocked
- Assignee set to okurz
- Target version set to Ready
Then let's keep this ticket open as tracker until we can again run the latest stable distribution kernel. I will track the bug. Should be downgrade and lock the older kernel version on more hosts? What if we upgrade more workers to Leap 15.5?

15.4 and 15.5 are equally affected. As a workaround, kernel 6.5-rc7+ can be installed or spec_rstack_overflow=off added to the cmdline.
