Description Dan Zheng 2017-11-29 03:48:48 UTC
Description of problem:
The underlying "share-rw" property is unavaiable on scsi passthrough devices.
The problem exists on x86-64 as well as ppc64le.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
qemu-kvm-rhev-2.10.0-8.el7.ppc64le
libvirt-3.9.0-3.el7.ppc64le
kernel-4.11.0-44.el7a.ppc64le


How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add below block disk to the guest

    <disk type='block' device='lun' rawio='no' sgio='unfiltered'>
      <driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
      <source dev='/dev/sdb'/>
      <target dev='sdb' bus='scsi'/>
      <shareable/>
      <address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='1'/>
    </disk>

2. Start the guest

# virsh start vm1
error: Failed to start domain vm1
error: internal error: qemu unexpectedly closed the monitor: 2017-11-28T09:19:07.595325Z qemu-kvm: -device scsi-block,bus=scsi0.0,channel=0,scsi-id=0,lun=1,share-rw=on,drive=drive-scsi0-0-0-1,id=scsi0-0-0-1: Property '.share-rw' not found

Actual results:
See above. Guest fails to start. Qemu does not support the property.

Expected results:
The guest should be able to start normally

Comment 2 Fam Zheng 2017-12-05 07:29:23 UTC
Working on upstream to add the property, sent patch:

[PATCH] scsi-block: Add share-rw option

Comment 3 Xueqiang Wei 2017-12-05 08:02:44 UTC
Hi Fam,

"share-rw" property is also unavailable on scsi-generic

(qemu) qemu-kvm: -device scsi-generic,bus=bus1.0,drive=scsi-disk1,id=disk1,share-rw=off: Property '.share-rw' not found

Comment 4 Fam Zheng 2017-12-12 01:48:16 UTC
Good catch, for that I posted:

Comment 7 jiyan 2018-01-18 07:34:12 UTC
Hi, Fam, I found an issue thst scsi hostdev can use same source device with virtual disk at the same time, could you please help check whether it is expected? Thanks in advance.

Comment 8 Fam Zheng 2018-01-18 07:38:17 UTC
It's very hard to understand the snippets you pasted, could you explain the problem?

Comment 9 jiyan 2018-01-18 07:45:30 UTC
Hi, Fam, Sry for the that.
I am trying to check this issue shows in Scenario-4, hostdev with scsi_host7 as source, virtual disk with dev/sdb as source, while in the info returned by 'virsh nodedev-list --tree' command, those two source means same. So I want to check whether the result in Scenario-4 is expected.

Comment 10 Fam Zheng 2018-01-18 07:50:00 UTC
The scsi_host7 goes through /dev/sgX, so it uses a different lock from /dev/sdb. You are right they are essentially the same device so it is a "shared" case, but it's hard to detect this from QEMU.

I wonder if virtlockd can handle this as well.

Comment 12 Miroslav Rezanina 2018-01-23 12:59:33 UTC
Fix included in qemu-kvm-rhev-2.10.0-18.el7
