[Solved] Guru Meditation
[Solved] Guru Meditation
I have been using VirtalBox regularly , but something changed and suddenly I now get the Guru Meditation dialog and cannot start any of my VMs.
Can anyone tell me what is going on? I have no other virtualization running that I know of.. and this is a new phenomena for me.
Thanks
Ati

Re: Guru Meditation
You are not using VirtualBox. You are using a third party build (6.1.22_SUSE). This forum only supports official builds.
However, I can see that your error is "VCPU0: Guru Meditation -79 (VERR_INVALID_STATE)", which IME usually means you have KVM running.

Re: Guru Meditation
You're encountering a known issue with Linux kernel 5.13, which is not supported by VirtualBox 6.1.22.

You made my day! Thank you very much. That's it! After rebooting with kernel version 5.12 everything worked again.fth0 wrote:You're encountering a known issue with Linux kernel 5.13, which is not supported by VirtualBox 6.1.22.

Re: Guru Meditation
Can you please try Linux kernel 5.13 with and without the no5lvl and nohugevmalloc parameters and report back? If it doesn't help, please also try if the following command makes any difference (don't forget to replace "VM name" ):
You can revert it later by using
Code: Select all
VBoxManage setextradata "VM name" "VBoxInternal/RamPreAlloc" 1
Code: Select all
VBoxManage setextradata "VM name" "VBoxInternal/RamPreAlloc"

Re: Guru Meditation
Please try the VirtualBox test builds 6.1.23r145697 (or newer) that are supposed to fix VirtualBox issues on hosts with Linux kernel 5.13.
Re: Guru Meditation
I just upgrade to the newer kernel 5.13.1-1 and am using a newer build of virtualbox and kernel modules it all works fine.
It may not help, but under opensuse update installed version 6.1.22-604-1 of virtual box which have a changelog entry of:

- Add file "fix_random_stack_failure.patch" to fix CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_KSTACK_OFFSET_DEFAULT
problem with kernel 5.13 as shown in boo#118105.
