RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Sibiao Luo 2013-10-19 12:03:49 UTC 
Description of problem:
boot guest with attaching multi CD-ROMs to guest with IDE or SCSI-CD interface, the seabios can list the multi cdroms in device list correctly, but only one cdrom can be detected in guest. BTW, both the PC and Q35 machine type can hit this issue.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
host info:
3.10.0-34.el7.x86_64
qemu-kvm-1.5.3-9.el7.x86_64
seabios-bin-1.7.2.2-2.el7.noarch
guest info:
3.10.0-34.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1.boot guest with attaching multi CD-ROMs to guest with SCSI-CD interface.
e.g1:...-drive file=/home/cdrom1.iso,if=none,id=cd-rom1,media=cdrom,format=raw,readonly=on -device virtio-scsi-pci,id=sluo1 -device scsi-cd,drive=cd-rom1,id=cd1,bus=sluo1.0 -drive file=/home/cdrom2.iso,if=none,id=cd-rom2,media=cdrom,format=raw,readonly=on -device virtio-scsi-pci,id=sluo2 -device scsi-cd,bus=sluo2.0,drive=cd-rom2,id=cd2
(qemu) info block
drive-virtio-disk: removable=0 io-status=ok file=/home/RHEL-Server-7.0-64.qcow2 ro=0 drv=qcow2 encrypted=0 bps=0 bps_rd=0 bps_wr=0 iops=0 iops_rd=0 iops_wr=0
cd-rom1: removable=1 locked=1 tray-open=0 io-status=ok file=/home/cdrom1.iso ro=1 drv=raw encrypted=0 bps=0 bps_rd=0 bps_wr=0 iops=0 iops_rd=0 iops_wr=0
cd-rom2: removable=1 locked=1 tray-open=0 io-status=ok file=/home/cdrom2.iso ro=1 drv=raw encrypted=0 bps=0 bps_rd=0 bps_wr=0 iops=0 iops_rd=0 iops_wr=0
floppy0: removable=1 locked=0 tray-open=0 [not inserted]
sd0: removable=1 locked=0 tray-open=0 [not inserted]
2.check the cdroms in guest.
# ls -lh /dev/cdrom*
3.boot guest with attaching multi CD-ROMs to guest with IDE interface.
e.g2:...-drive file=/home/cdrom1.iso,if=none,id=cd-rom1,media=cdrom,format=raw,readonly=on -device ide-drive,bus=ide.0,unit=0,drive=cd-rom1,id=cd1 -drive file=/home/cdrom2.iso,if=none,id=cd-rom2,media=cdrom,format=raw,readonly=on -device ide-drive,bus=ide.0,unit=1,drive=cd-rom2,id=cd2
(qemu) info block
drive-virtio-disk: removable=0 io-status=ok file=/home/RHEL-Server-7.0-64.qcow2 ro=0 drv=qcow2 encrypted=0 bps=0 bps_rd=0 bps_wr=0 iops=0 iops_rd=0 iops_wr=0
cd-rom1: removable=1 locked=0 tray-open=0 io-status=ok file=/home/cdrom1.iso ro=1 drv=raw encrypted=0 bps=0 bps_rd=0 bps_wr=0 iops=0 iops_rd=0 iops_wr=0

floppy0: removable=1 locked=0 tray-open=0 [not inserted]
sd0: removable=1 locked=0 tray-open=0 [not inserted]
4.check the cdroms in guest.
# ls -lh /dev/cdrom*

Actual results:
after step 2, only one cdrom can be detected in guest, like:
# ls -lh /dev/cdrom*
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 3 Oct 19 14:16 /dev/cdrom -> sr0
after step 4, only one cdrom can be detected in guest, like:
# ls -lh /dev/cdrom*
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 3 Oct 20 3:54 /dev/cdrom -> sr0

Expected results:
after step 2, if use the scsi-cd interface, the muti-cdroms should be detected in guest correctly. About the default IDE cdrom device  disappear when attach a emulated SCSI cdrom(scsi-cd), please refer to bug 974910.
# ls -lh /dev/cdrom*
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 3 Oct 20 03:17 /dev/cdrom -> sr0  <--------bug 974910 
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 3 Oct 20 03:17 /dev/cdrom1 -> sr2
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 3 Oct 20 03:17 /dev/cdrom2 -> sr1

after step 4, if use the ide interface, it should be like:
# ls -lh /dev/cdrom*
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 3 Oct 20 02:09 /dev/cdrom1 -> sr0
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 3 Oct 20 02:09 /dev/cdrom2 -> sr1

Comment 1 Paolo Bonzini 2013-10-24 22:58:57 UTC 
Please try again with a RHEL6 guest.  I cannot reproduce it with

kernel-2.6.32-258.el6.x86_64
udev-147-2.35.el6.x86-64

If it works, please reassign to systemd.  Also please test with a single virtio-scsi-pci controller and both disks attached to that controller.

Yes, if use rhel6.5 guest that did not hit it.
host info:

If use single virtio-scsi-pci controller attached two cd-rom via scsi-cd wiht rhel6.5 guest that also did not meet such issue.

Current udev does not provide cdrom[0-9] symbolic links anymore.
