Setting to MODIFIED as there is a new build which includes these hacks: http://brewweb.devel.redhat.com/brew/taskinfo?taskID=8754987 Setting back to ASSIGNED, since we could add support for virtio-scsi CDROMs. See Dan's comment: http://post-office.corp.redhat.com/archives/virt-arm/2015-March/msg00025.html in this thread: http://post-office.corp.redhat.com/archives/virt-arm/2015-March/thread.html#00012 NB, since we don't have to worry about backwards compatibility with legacy guests that only support virtio-blk, we could probably just make AArch64 default to virtio-scsi for both disks & cdrom, and thus ignore virtio-blk.

Note that virtio-scsi is buggy upstream on aarch64 (bug 1184405). Are there still some hacks being tracked? Or does upstream work without them now, and this bug can be closed? Thanks, drew Upstream is supposed to support it out of the box now, although I've not tested that in a while. In any case it's sufficient that we have this bug with the old patches attached in case we need to refer to them, but it can be closed. |
