Thread-topic: [Xen-devel] FW: megaraid sas driver failing in Xen-3.4 unstable version

 

I found 2:9.0 in xmdmesg but not 02:09.0

 

Where you found 02:09.0?

 

Yes, 02:09.0 is not showed in lspci –v

 

Why you are so specific to 02:09.0?

 

Device 02:0e.0 is the MegaRAID SAS controller not 02:09.0

Yes I used docs/misc/vtd.txt

 

Device 02:0e.0 is the MegaRAID SAS controller not 02:09.0

 

I am attaching the lspci output and the log messages of Xen & HVM. Please find them with this email

 

Xen log messages (xmdmesg)

HVM guest kernel log messages (hvm_dmesg_with_msi_1st_time)

Domain0 Kernel log messages (dom0_var_log_messages)

 

Now I destroyed the HVM guest and created HVM guest again

 

HVM guest kernel log messages (hvm_dmesg_with_msi_2nd_time)

Did you use VT-d followed docs/misc/vtd.txt?

 

Per xmdmesg file, device 02:09.0 didn't be mapped in context sucessfully. Is device 02:09.0 the MegaRAID SAS controller? Can you post "lspci -v" output?

VT-d support is enabled

 

Here I am attaching three files dmesg (hvm dmesgs), dom0_varlogmessages and xmdmesg

 

Thanks,

Ramesh

you mean you assign MegaRAID SAS controller with VT-d to your guest?

 

You'd better provide more info, such as serial output, so people can be easy to help you.

Weidong

Subject: megaraid sas driver failing in Xen-3.4 unstable version

 

 

On Xen-3.4 (unstable version), I have created CentOS HVM guest & WS2K8 HVM guest and dedicated MegaRAID SAS controller but I am not able to see the disk which is connected to MegaRAID SAS controller when I do fdisk l (vtd support is enabled in Xen).

 

Looks like the pci device(MegaRAID SAS controller) is getting dedicated successfully as I can see the device in the list of pci devices shown by lspci(on CentOS HVM).

 

00:06.0 RAID bus controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic MegaRAID SAS

 

 

However the driver is not getting attached properly and fails with the following error

 

=======================================================================================

“dmesg” of HVM CentOS

megasas: Failed to init firmware

ACPI: PCI interrupt for device 0000:00:06.0 disabled

 

 

“/var/log/messages”

pciback 0000:02:0e.0: seizing device

 PCI: Enabling device 0000:02:0e.0 (0190 -> 0192)

 ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:02:0e.0[A] -> GSI 66 (level, low) -> IRQ 25

 ACPI: PCI interrupt for device 0000:02:0e.0 disabled

=======================================================================================

 

 

 

On WS2K8 HVM, I am able to see MegaRAID SAS controller under “Storage Controllers” on WS2K8 HVM and the status of device is

 

=========================================================================================================================================================

This device cannot start.(Code 10)
