For s390 arch, I find dcss and scm block device are enabled in kernel from the RHEL9 s390 kernel build log(kmod dcssblk.ko, scm_block.ko), but none of them is mentioned in libvirt node device codes. So I guess these block device cannot be listed by libvirt node devices either. Sebas, could you please help to confirm my guess on s390 machines? If it is confirmed, you can file a bug to request the node device support of dcss and scm pktcdvd is also supported in RHEL9 kernel: ➜ ~ grep pktcdvd /boot/config-`uname -r` -i CONFIG_CDROM_PKTCDVD=m CONFIG_CDROM_PKTCDVD_BUFFERS=8 One more block device: Sony MemoryStickPro block device ➜ ~ grep MSPRO /boot/config-5.14.0-87.el9.x86_64 CONFIG_MSPRO_BLOCK=m (In reply to Han Han from comment #1) > For s390 arch, I find dcss and scm block device are enabled in kernel from > the RHEL9 s390 kernel build log(kmod dcssblk.ko, scm_block.ko), but none of > them is mentioned in libvirt node device codes. > So I guess these block device cannot be listed by libvirt node devices > either. > Sebas, could you please help to confirm my guess on s390 machines? > If it is confirmed, you can file a bug to request the node device support of > dcss and scm Sorry for the late answer, we got our feedback from Thomas back in May "both storage types are not supported in KVM and thus I think they are not supported by libvirt." I'm not so sure we want to list everything. I mean, it makes sense to list that types of storage that can be assigned to a guest and fundamentally, virtio-pmem is different. Or is the aim to list whatever 'lsblk' lists? |
