Description of problem:
tuned-adm (and other) parameters are updated in the /proc/cmdline only if the VM is rebooted.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
CNV 4.14.0
RHEL 8.7
How reproducible:
Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
Create a RHEl 8.7 VM by following https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/4.14/virt/monitoring/virt-running-cluster-checkups.html#virt-building-vm-containerdisk-image_virt-running-cluster-checkups
2.
Run a guest VM by applying the attached vmi-under-test.yaml.
- Note that this VM uses the image created in the previous section.
- This is the image that is supposed to be used for the DPDK checkup, by setting it as the value for `spec.param.trafficGenContainerDiskImage` and `spec.param.vmUnderTestContainerDiskImage`.
3.
After the VM is running - enter it's console and check for the /proc/cmdline:
$ virtctl console vmi-under-test-nhkh2
Successfully connected to vmi-under-test-nhkh2 console. The escape sequence is ^]
[cloud-user@vmi-under-test-nhkh2 ~]$ cat /proc/cmdline
BOOT_IMAGE=(hd0,gpt3)/boot/vmlinuz-4.18.0-425.19.2.el8_7.x86_64 root=UUID=1496f40e-6254-4df7-823c-4dc607c943f3 console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200n8 no_timer_check net.ifnames=0 crashkernel=auto default_hugepagesz=1GB hugepagesz=1G hugepages=8 isolcpus=2-7
4.
Reboot the VM
[cloud-user@vmi-under-test-nhkh2 ~]$ sudo reboot
5.
After the VM is up again - repeat the check from section 3:
$ cat /proc/cmdline
BOOT_IMAGE=(hd0,gpt3)/boot/vmlinuz-4.18.0-425.19.2.el8_7.x86_64 root=UUID=1496f40e-6254-4df7-823c-4dc607c943f3 console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200n8 no_timer_check net.ifnames=0 crashkernel=auto default_hugepagesz=1GB hugepagesz=1G hugepages=8 isolcpus=2-7 skew_tick=1 nohz=on nohz_full=2-7 rcu_nocbs=2-7 tuned.non_isolcpus=00000003 intel_pstate=disable nosoftlockup
Actual results:
The following values appear only after reboot:
skew_tick=1 nohz=on nohz_full=2-7 rcu_nocbs=2-7 tuned.non_isolcpus=00000003 intel_pstate=disable nosoftlockup
Expected results:
All values should be updated on the guest VM first start-up.
