I was finally able to trigger this by using my workstation:
Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-8259U CPU @ 2.30GHz
Debian/buster
QEMU 3.1.0 (Debian 1:3.1+dfsg-8+deb10u8)
instead of my build server:
Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2697 v4 @ 2.30GHz
Debian/bullseye
QEMU 5.2.0 (Debian 1:5.2+dfsg-3)
I don't know what factors contributed, but I wanted to share my success
in reproducing the reported problem. Instead of using lkp, I am manually
booting with:
$ kvm -cpu host -smp 2 -m 8G -nographic \
-kernel bzImage -append "console=ttyS0,115200 loglevel=6" \
-initrd initrd
My initrd is a minimal busybox rootfs that runs:
# modprobe rcutorture onoff_interval=3 onoff_holdoff=30 torture_type=tasks
(Those are the same modprobe parameters used by the lkp job.)
After about a minute I see:
[ 47.268292] tasks-torture: rcu_torture_read_exit: Start of episode
[ 51.273365] tasks-torture: rcu_torture_read_exit: End of episode

[ 55.848524] tasks-torture:torture_onoff task: online 0 failed: errno -5
I will start to debug this now.
