Hi,
since commit ae255e523, qemu with NBD hangs at startup (when it tries to
access the disk):
commit ae255e523c256cf0708f1c16cb946ff96340a800

nbd: switch to asynchronous operation
Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonz...@redhat.com>
Reverting this patch corrects the problem.
My system is an Ubuntu 11.04 x86_64 (But the bug is also seen on RHEL6).
qemu is configured only with "--target-list=x86_64-softmmu".
My test case is:
./qemu-nbd -k /tmp/nbd-socket -t /ISO/ubuntu-11.04-desktop-i386.iso
./x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -cdrom nbd:unix:/tmp/nbd-socket
Same problem with a TCP socket, with/without KVM, with an x86_64 guest, with
-hda...
Regards,
Laurent
