Hi Asias,
Thanks for your config.
According to you config,I test booting from vhost device with upstream
kernel and qemu,but failed.
1 installing guest from cdrom,ok.
2 booting vhost-scsi,guest fs error occurs.
3 using fileio backstores,the error is same..
4 rebooting guest,a log printed:
(qemu) hw/scsi/virtio-scsi.c:533:virtio_scsi_handle_event: Object
0x7fccae7f2c88 is not an instance of type virtio-scsi-device
5 using upstream seabios,core dumped.
Could you give me some advise to debug this problem ? I can provide more
information if need.
The qemu cmd:
[root@fedora121 x86_64-softmmu]# ./qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -name fedora
-M pc -m 1024 -smp 2 -drive file=/home/fedora18.iso,if=ide,media=cdrom
-device vhost-scsi-pci,wwpn=naa.50014057133e25dc -monitor stdio -vga qxl
-vnc :1
The vnc output:
Dracut-initqueue[189]:/dev/mapper/fedora-root:UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY;RUN FSCK
MANUALLY.
Dracut-initqueue[189]: Warning: e2fsck returned with 4
