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 2014-01-02 06:30:32 UTC 
Description of problem:
boot guest with a usb-xhci storage disk specified the bootindex=0, but it fail to boot from it.
BTW, also tried the usb-ehci controller that did not meet such issue.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
host info:
3.10.0-64.el7.x86_64
qemu-kvm-1.5.3-30.el7.x86_64
seabios-1.7.2.2-6.el7.x86_64
guest info:
3.10.0-64.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1.boot guest with a usb-xhci storage disk specified the bootindex=0, and bootindex=1 for system hard disk, bootindex=2 for virtio-nic.
e.g:# /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -M pc...-device nec-usb-xhci,id=xhci0,bus=pci.0,addr=0x7 -drive file=/home/my-usb-storage.qcow2,id=drive-storage0,if=none,media=disk,cache=none,format=qcow2 -device usb-storage,drive=drive-storage0,bus=xhci0.0,id=storage0,removable=on,bootindex=0
2.press F12 during POST.

Actual results:
after step 2,
Press F12 for boot menu.

Select boot device:

1. Virtio disk PCI:0:4
2. iPXE (PCI 00:05.0)
3. USB MSC Drive QEMU QEMU HARDDISK 1.5.
4. Legacy option rom
5. Floppy [drive A]
6. DVD/CD [ata1-0: QEMU DVD-ROM ATAPI-4 DVD/CD]

Expected results:
the guest should boot from usb-xhci storage disk first, like:
1. USB MSC Drive QEMU QEMU HARDDISK 1.5.
2. Virtio disk PCI:0:4
3. iPXE (PCI 00:05.0)
4. Legacy option rom
5. Floppy [drive A]
6. DVD/CD [ata1-0: QEMU DVD-ROM ATAPI-4 DVD/CD]

Comment 1 Gerd Hoffmann 2014-01-16 08:04:29 UTC 
Port numbering issue.  xhci maps one physical port to two virtual ports, one for usb2, one for usb3, and bootindex works only for the usb2 virtual port ...

Think this should be fixed in seabios.
Comment 4 Gerd Hoffmann 2014-07-03 09:06:50 UTC 
xhci in qemu 2.1+ orders usb3 ports first (for new machine types), which fixes this as side effect.
Comment 6 langfang 2014-08-28 05:35:30 UTC 
Reproduce this bug as follow version:
Host:
# rpm -q qemu-kvm-rhev
qemu-kvm-rhev-1.5.3-60.el7_0_0.6.x86_64
# uname -r
3.10.0-144.el7.x86_64

Steps:
1)Boot guest with usb-xhci storage disk specified the bootindex=0, and bootindex=1 for system hard disk
...-device nec-usb-xhci,id=xhci0,bus=pci.0,addr=0x7 -drive file=/home/my-usb-storage.qcow2,id=drive-storage0,if=none,media=disk,cache=none,format=qcow2 -device usb-storage,drive=drive-storage0,bus=xhci0.0,id=storage0,removable=on,bootindex=0 -drive file=/home/RHEL-Server-6.6-64-virtio.qcow2,if=none,id=drive-virtio-disk,format=qcow2,cache=none,aio=native,werror=stop,rerror=stop -device virtio-blk-pci,vectors=0,bus=pci.0,addr=0x4,scsi=off,drive=drive-virtio-disk,id=virtio-disk,bootindex=1   -boot menu=on...

2)Press F12

According to above test ,i think this bug has not been fixed.
Comment 7 Gerd Hoffmann 2014-08-28 07:12:45 UTC 
Works only with the 7.1.0 machine type, which seems not to be there yet ...
Comment 8 langfang 2014-08-29 01:27:14 UTC 
According to comment7,i will change the bug status to "ASSIGNED",anything i was wrong ,please correct me .thanks
Comment 9 Gerd Hoffmann 2014-10-27 09:54:11 UTC 
7.1 machine type patches have been merged meanwhile, please retest with latest build and make sure to use machine type "pc-i440fx-rhel7.1.0"
Comment 10 juzhang 2014-10-28 00:51:41 UTC 
Hi Flang,

Could you retest it according to comment9?

Also test -M pc/q35/pc-q35-rhel7.1.0--->work well,results same as above


pc-q35-rhel7.0.0/rhel6.5.0--->failed, as comment7 and comment9,this is expect resutls,so this bug is fixed.

Hi Gerd 
    Please help me to see the above test ,thanks

Correct, only the rhel7.1.0 machine types will work, rhel7.0.0 is expected to fail.
