commit 6a0cf3786f1964fdf5a17f88f26cb499f4e89c81 Author: Roger Pau Monne <roger.pau@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Dec 6 12:35:58 2012 +0000 qemu-stubdom: prevent useless medium change qemu-stubdom was stripping the prefix from the "params" xenstore key in xenstore_parse_domain_config, which was then saved stripped in a variable. In xenstore_process_event we compare the "param" from xenstore (not stripped) with the stripped "param" saved in the variable, which leads to a medium change (even if there isn't any), since we are comparing something like aio:/path/to/file with /path/to/file. This only happens one time, since xenstore_parse_domain_config is the only place where we strip the prefix. The result of this bug is the following: xs_read_watch() -> /local/domain/0/backend/qdisk/19/5632/params hdc close(7) close blk: backend=/local/domain/0/backend/qdisk/19/5632 node=/local/domain/19/device/vbd/5632 (XEN) HVM18: HVM Loader (XEN) HVM18: Detected Xen v4.3-unstable (XEN) HVM18: Xenbus rings @0xfeffc000, event channel 4 (XEN) HVM18: System requested ROMBIOS (XEN) HVM18: CPU speed is 2400 MHz (XEN) irq.c:270: Dom18 PCI link 0 changed 0 -> 5 (XEN) HVM18: PCI-ISA link 0 routed to IRQ5 (XEN) irq.c:270: Dom18 PCI link 1 changed 0 -> 10 (XEN) HVM18: PCI-ISA link 1 routed to IRQ10 (XEN) irq.c:270: Dom18 PCI link 2 changed 0 -> 11 (XEN) HVM18: PCI-ISA link 2 routed to IRQ11 (XEN) irq.c:270: Dom18 PCI link 3 changed 0 -> 5 (XEN) HVM18: PCI-ISA link 3 routed to IRQ5 (XEN) HVM18: pci dev 01:3 INTA->IRQ10 (XEN) HVM18: pci dev 03:0 INTA->IRQ5 (XEN) HVM18: pci dev 04:0 INTA->IRQ5 (XEN) HVM18: pci dev 02:0 bar 10 size lx: 02000000 (XEN) HVM18: pci dev 03:0 bar 14 size lx: 01000000 (XEN) HVM18: pci dev 02:0 bar 14 size lx: 00001000 (XEN) HVM18: pci dev 03:0 bar 10 size lx: 00000100 (XEN) HVM18: pci dev 04:0 bar 10 size lx: 00000100 (XEN) HVM18: pci dev 04:0 bar 14 size lx: 00000100 (XEN) HVM18: pci dev 01:1 bar 20 size lx: 00000010 (XEN) HVM18: Multiprocessor initialisation: (XEN) HVM18: - CPU0 ... 36-bit phys ... fixed MTRRs ... var MTRRs [2/8] ... done.

This is a regression from Xen 4.1, which is able to boot from "file:/" based backends when using stubdomains. [ By inspection, this patch does not change the flow for the non-stubdom case. -iwj] Signed-off-by: Roger Pau MonnÃ© <roger.pau@xxxxxxxxxx> Acked-by: Ian Jackson <ian.jackson@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- xenstore.c | 10 ++++++---- 1 files changed, 6 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/xenstore.c b/xenstore.c index 1857160..d3a4588 100644 --- a/xenstore.c +++ b/xenstore.c @@ -614,6 +614,12 @@ void xenstore_parse_domain_config(int hvm_domid) if (pasprintf(&danger_buf, "%s/device/vbd/%s", danger_path, e_danger[i]) == -1) continue; if (bdrv_open2(bs, danger_buf, BDRV_O_CACHE_WB /* snapshot and write-back */, &bdrv_raw) == 0) { + if (pasprintf(&buf, "%s/params", bpath) == -1) + continue; + free(params); + params = xs_read(xsh, XBT_NULL, buf, &len); + if (params == NULL) + continue; pstrcpy(bs->filename, sizeof(bs->filename), params); } #else @@ -667,11 +673,7 @@ void xenstore_parse_domain_config(int hvm_domid) drives_table[nb_drives].bdrv = bs; drives_table[nb_drives].used = 1; -#ifdef CONFIG_STUBDOM - media_filename[nb_drives] = strdup(danger_buf); -#else media_filename[nb_drives] = strdup(bs->filename); -#endif nb_drives++; } -- generated by git-patchbot for /home/xen/git/qemu-xen-unstable.git
