https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=292961 Bug ID: 292961 Summary: Microsoft SQL Server inside a Linux VM on bhyve host Product: Base System Version: 15.0-RELEASE Hardware: amd64 OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: bhyve Assignee: virtualization@FreeBSD.org Reporter: rob2g2-freebsd@bitbert.com For a testing project I wanted to deploy mssql Server inside a Linux VM. I am proficient in using docker on Linux. First, I tried to get the image to run inside my Kali Linux VM - it started, did not produce any errors, but the process kept running at 100% CPU. The same happened on another fresh Debian 13 VM. This was on my FreeBSD 15.0-RELEASE host (p2) with a AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 8-Core Processor and 64GB of ECC-RAM. I was suspicious and tried another vm on my small server, FreeBSD 15.0-RELEASE (p2) with a Intel(R) Atom(TM) CPU C3558 @ 2.20GHz (2200.21-MHz K8-class CPU) and 32GB ECC-RAM. The same behaviour. It did not have an issue when using a Linux notebook without virtualization, so I dug deeper. Then, I installed Debian 13 on my oldish HP Z440 Workstation with a Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-1630 v4 @ 3.70GHz (3691.66-MHz K8-class CPU) and 32GB ECC-RAM. I used KVM to install a virtual machine (Debian 13) and ran mssql server inside that VM - no problem, even with a docker volume it worked as it should. I then installed on the same HP Z440 Workstation on a different disk a fresh version of FreeBSD 15.0-RELEASE (p2) and with vm-bhyve I created a Debian Linux VM (Debian 13). I installed the exact same packages as in the Debian 13 VM from the Z440 Linux host. Here, the mssql process again went to 100% CPU and it did not work. On a second VM, I tried the same, but with nvme as storage and e1000 as network interface, however, this did not change the behaviour. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.home | help
