Haven't used 9pfs in a while. I thought these patches are a good time to play with it some more. I have encountered two issues.
What I'm doing: host: qemu a75143eda2ddf581b51e96c000974bcdfe2cbd10. /scm/qemu/x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -m 1g -cpu kvm64 -smp 2 f20-x64.qcow2 -netdev user,id=foo -redir tcp:8022::22 -device virtio-net,netdev=foo -serial stdio -fsdev local,security_model=none,id=fsdev0,path=/lib/modules/ -device virtio-9p-pci,id=fs0,fsdev=fsdev0,mount_tag=libmodulesshare -fsdev local,security_model=none,id=fsdev1,path=/boot -device virtio-9p-pci,id=fs1,fsdev=fsdev0,mount_tag=bootshare -no-reboot -snapshot guest: Fedora 20 added this in /etc/fstab: bootshare /share/boot 9p trans=virtio,version=9p2000.L 0 0 libmodulesshare /share/lib/modules 9p trans=virtio,version=9p2000.L 0 0 I have encountered two issues: 1. mount failure on boot If I try to mount on boot through fstab, I get: [ 2.270157] 9pnet: Could not find request transport: virtio [ 2.270158] 9pnet: Could not find request transport: virtio If I then re-try mount, it succeeds immediately! Some kind of dependency issue? 2. files immediately in the mounted directory aren't visible on the guest under /share/boot. For example, files under /boot on host are not visible on guest, files under child directories seem visible. Strange. -- MST
