Kernel crashes inside QEMU/KVM are observed:
kernel BUG at kernel/time/timer.c:1154!
BUG_ON(timer_pending(timer) || !timer->function) in add_timer_on().
At the same time another cpu got:
general protection fault: 0000 [#1] SMP PTI of poinson pointer 0xdead000000000200 in:
__hlist_del at include/linux/list.h:681
(inlined by) detach_timer at kernel/time/timer.c:818
(inlined by) expire_timers at kernel/time/timer.c:1355
(inlined by) __run_timers at kernel/time/timer.c:1686
(inlined by) run_timer_softirq at kernel/time/timer.c:1699
Unfortunately kernel logs are badly scrambled, stacktraces are lost.
Printing the timer->function before the BUG_ON() pointed to
clocksource_watchdog().
The execution of clocksource_watchdog() can race with a sequence of
clocksource_stop_watchdog() .. clocksource_start_watchdog():
expire_timers()
detach_timer(timer, true);
timer->entry.pprev = NULL;
raw_spin_unlock_irq(&base->lock);
call_timer_fn
clocksource_watchdog()
clocksource_watchdog_kthread() or
clocksource_unbind()
spin_lock_irqsave(&watchdog_lock, flags);
clocksource_stop_watchdog();
del_timer(&watchdog_timer);
watchdog_running = 0;
spin_unlock_irqrestore(&watchdog_lock, flags);
spin_lock_irqsave(&watchdog_lock, flags);
clocksource_start_watchdog();
add_timer_on(&watchdog_timer, ...);
watchdog_running = 1;
spin_unlock_irqrestore(&watchdog_lock, flags);
spin_lock(&watchdog_lock);
add_timer_on(&watchdog_timer, ...);
BUG_ON(timer_pending(timer) || !timer->function);
timer_pending() -> true
BUG()
I.e. inside clocksource_watchdog() watchdog_timer could be already armed.
Check timer_pending() before calling add_timer_on(). This is sufficient as
all operations are synchronized by watchdog_lock.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
