Title:
[UBUNTU 20.04] virtio-blk disks can go dissfunctional when swiotlb
fills up
Status in The Ubuntu-power-systems project:
In Progress
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
In Progress
Bug description:
virtio-blk disks can go dissfunctional when swiotlb fills up
virtio-blk hw queue gets possibly permanently stopped when swiotlb full
For example, with a PV guest choose a small swiotlb (30MB) and create
IO load on several virtio-blk disks simultaneously. It actually should
not matter what causes the swiotlb pressure (can be virtio-net as
well).
