Corner case on a tech-preview feature, too late for RHEL6.3 Created attachment 599355 [details]
trivial patch
The problem only shows up with 1GB RAM or more, and happens because highmem was not considered by the virtio-scsi driver. The fix is trivial, because we already have a scatterlist (i.e. physical addresses of the buffers) and we just need to copy it into the new scatterlist that is handed to virtio.
