FreeNAS kernel panics on initial boot

Hello,

I've moved a few VMs from XCP-ng over to Proxmox, to be able to use GPU passthrough properly. Alas, my FreeNAS VM has an issue when I start it up: the FreeBSD kernel starts then panics and drops me in the debugger, seems to be coming from an issue with the AT keyboard part. If I just issue a reboot from the debugger, the VM reboots (so it "stays up" as far as KVM is concerned) and FreeNAS boots fine.

Has anybody seen that issue before? I'm using Proxmox 6.1 on a Ryzen platform.

Thanks,

Clément
 
Do you still have this problem? Is there any useful output when the kernel panics?
 
Hi Dominic,

Yes, I still have the problem. FreeNAS sends a daily security e-mail if anything happens, unexpected reboots included - here's the relevant part of the output:
Code:

The remainder of the e-mail is the regular boot after I issue the reboot command inside the debugger.

Have you tried changing the cpu type of the virtual machine?
 
I can't - selecting anything else cause qemu to fail starting VMs - I would have to create a test one to give you the exact error message, but it boils down to some feature flags not being present on the CPU (it's a Ryzen 1700X).
 
Here's the error message when I set the CPU type to kvm64 (the default), qemu64 or EPYC:
Code: 
kvm: warning: host doesn't support requested feature: CPUID.01H:ECX.x2apic [bit 21]
kvm: Host doesn't support requested features
TASK ERROR: start failed: QEMU exited with code 1
 
Could you post the output of 'lscpu' and 'dmesg | grep -e apic -e avic -e irq -e interrupt -e iommu' on your PVE host?

What happens if you write into your VM config (/etc/pve/qemu-server/VMID.conf) the following line
Code: 
args: -cpu kvm64,-x2apic
(and remove the line "cpu: host")?
 
Thanks Dominic, that appears to be working :D

However I'll keep monitoring, because it did reboot OK one time with the previous settings - hopefully that'll prove more stable this time around.
