If a secure kernel is started in a non-protected VM, the OS will hang
during boot without giving a proper error message to the user.
Most of the time you see nothing in the console because libvirt is too slow. If
you start the VM in paused mode, attach a console and then resume it, then
you'll see a nice error message.
If you wait long enough, the VM fails to mount / and falls into the dracut
initrams.
I have the feeling that we're not talking about the same thing here.>
> A PV VM always starts out as a non-PV VM and is put into PV mode via two
diag308 subcodes (8 & 10). ALL PV subcodes (8 - 10) are spec exceptions if the
host isn't enabled for PV.
The corner case this patch is trying to address is for a PV-enabled host,
a secure enabled OS and !PV-enabled QEMU.
Please run this command on a secure disk image :
qemu-system-s390x -M s390-ccw-virtio -accel kvm -drive
file=<file>,if=virtio,format=qcow2 -nographic -nodefaults -serial mon:stdio
and tell me what you get.
qemu-system-s390x -M s390-ccw-virtio -accel kvm -drive
file=u2204.qcow2,if=virtio,format=qcow2 -nographic -nodefaults -serial mon:stdio
LOADPARM=[ ]
Using virtio-blk.
Using SCSI scheme.
