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.

Comment 4 Miroslav Rezanina 2019-05-17 15:47:20 UTC
Fix included in qemu-kvm-rhev-2.12.0-29.el7

Comment 6 yujie ma 2019-05-20 06:59:01 UTC
update:
1. Reproduced with kernel-4.18.0-45.el8.x86_64 + qemu-kvm-3.1.0-0.module+el8+2266+616cf026.next.candidate.x86_64

1) Boot guest with the following command line:
/usr/libexec/qemu-kvm \
    -name 'rhel7.7' \
    -machine q35 \
    -nodefaults \
    -vga qxl \
    -object   iothread,id=iothread0 \
    -rtc base=utc,clock=host,driftfix=slew \
    -device   pcie-root-port,id=pcie.0-root-port-2,slot=2,chassis=2,addr=0x2 \
    -device virtio-scsi-pci,id=scsi0,iothread=iothread0,bus=pcie.0-root-port-2,addr=0x0 \
    -blockdev driver=file,cache.direct=off,cache.no-flush=on,filename=/home/test/rhel77-64-virtio.qcow2,node-name=my_file1  \
    -blockdev driver=qcow2,node-name=file_image1,file=my_file1 \
    -device   pcie-root-port,id=pcie.0-root-port-3,slot=3,chassis=3,addr=0x3,bus=pcie.0 \
    -device  virtio-blk-pci,id=image2,drive=file_image1,write-cache=on,iothread=iothread0,bus=pcie.0-root-port-3,bootindex=0 \
    -blockdev driver=raw,cache.direct=off,cache.no-flush=on,file.filename=/home/test/data.qcow2,node-name=data_disk1,file.driver=file \
    -device scsi-hd,drive=data_disk1,id=data1,bootindex=1 \
    -vnc :0  \
    -monitor stdio \
    -m 4096 \
    -smp 8 \
    -device virtio-net-pci,mac=9a:b5:b6:b1:b2:b3,id=idMmq1jH,vectors=4,netdev=idxgXAlm,bus=pcie.0,addr=0x9  \
    -netdev tap,id=idxgXAlm \
    -qmp tcp:localhost:5902,server,nowait  \
    -device nec-usb-xhci,id=usb1,bus=pcie.0,addr=0x5 -device usb-tablet,id=usb-tablet1,bus=usb1.0,port=1 \

2) Unplug the data disk:
{"execute":"device_del","arguments":{"id":"data1"}}

{"timestamp": {"seconds": 1558332129, "microseconds": 411530}, "event": "DEVICE_DELETED", "data": {"device": "data1", "path": "/machine/peripheral/data1"}}
{"return": {}}

3) Hotplug the deleted disk failed:
{ 'execute':'device_add','arguments':{'driver':'scsi-hd','drive':'data_disk1','id':'data1'}}

Connection closed by foreign host.

4) Check the coredump file with gdb, the following info could be get:

2. Verified with 3.10.0-1040.el7.x86_64 + qemu-kvm-rhev-2.12.0-29.el7
no core dump and hotplug disk successfully.

1) Boot guest with the following command line:
/usr/libexec/qemu-kvm \
    -name 'rhel7.7' \
    -machine q35 \
    -nodefaults \
    -vga qxl \
    -object   iothread,id=iothread0 \
    -rtc base=utc,clock=host,driftfix=slew \
    -device   pcie-root-port,id=pcie.0-root-port-2,slot=2,chassis=2,addr=0x2 \
    -device virtio-scsi-pci,id=scsi0,iothread=iothread0,bus=pcie.0-root-port-2,addr=0x0 \
    -blockdev driver=file,cache.direct=off,cache.no-flush=on,filename=/home/test/rhel77-64-virtio.qcow2,node-name=my_file1  \
    -blockdev driver=qcow2,node-name=file_image1,file=my_file1 \
    -device   pcie-root-port,id=pcie.0-root-port-3,slot=3,chassis=3,addr=0x3,bus=pcie.0 \
    -device  virtio-blk-pci,id=image2,drive=file_image1,write-cache=on,iothread=iothread0,bus=pcie.0-root-port-3,bootindex=0 \
    -blockdev driver=raw,cache.direct=off,cache.no-flush=on,file.filename=/home/test/data.qcow2,node-name=data_disk1,file.driver=file \

    -vnc :0  \
    -monitor stdio \
    -m 4096 \
    -smp 8 \
    -device virtio-net-pci,mac=9a:b5:b6:b1:b2:b3,id=idMmq1jH,vectors=4,netdev=idxgXAlm,bus=pcie.0,addr=0x9  \
    -netdev tap,id=idxgXAlm \

    -device nec-usb-xhci,id=usb1,bus=pcie.0,addr=0x5 -device usb-tablet,id=usb-tablet1,bus=usb1.0,port=1 \

2) Unplug the data disk:
{"execute":"device_del","arguments":{"id":"data1"}}

{"timestamp": {"seconds": 1558334175, "microseconds": 85720}, "event": "DEVICE_DELETED", "data": {"device": "data1", "path": "/machine/peripheral/data1"}}
{"return": {}}

3) Hotplug the deleted disk successfully:
{ 'execute':'device_add','arguments':{'driver':'scsi-hd','drive':'data_disk1','id':'data1'}}
{"return": {}}

4) Run IO test on the data disk, it worked normally:
# lsblk
sda                                 8:0    0 192.5K  0 disk 
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=1M count=1000 oflag=direct
