The qemu cmd line

Description of problem:
Guest can not boot up, VNC show info: Guest has not initialized the display (yet)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
libvirt-8.4.0-1.el9.x86_64
qemu-kvm-7.0.0-6.el9.x86_64
edk2-ovmf-20220526git16779ede2d36-1.el9.noarch

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set a Q35+uefi guest with
1) 1 pcie-expander-bus, and 1 pcie-root-port connected to this expander bus;
2) guest has 13 pcie controller or more, for example:
<os>
    <type arch='x86_64' machine='pc-q35-rhel9.0.0'>hvm</type>
    <loader readonly='yes' secure='yes' type='pflash'>/usr/share/edk2/ovmf/OVMF_CODE.secboot.fd</loader>
  </os>
......
<controller type='pci' index='12' model='pcie-expander-bus'>
      <model name='pxb-pcie'/>
      <target busNr='254'/>
      <alias name='pci.12'/>
    </controller>
    <controller type='pci' index='13' model='pcie-root-port'>
      <model name='pcie-root-port'/>
      <target chassis='13' port='0x0'/>
      <alias name='pci.13'/>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x0c' slot='0x00' function='0x0'/>
    </controller>

In this configuration, the guest has 13 pcie controllers in total. In which there is a pcie-expander-bus, and one pcie-root-port connected to it.

Can you attach the edk2 firmware log to the bug please?

Comment 9 Gerd Hoffmann 2023-05-24 07:19:55 UTC
Does the scratch build linked here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2174749#c18
make any difference?

By the way, tested with the latest edk2 - edk2-ovmf-20230301gitf80f052277c8-5.el9.noarch.rpm, hit this issue.

Comment 11 Gerd Hoffmann 2023-07-11 08:19:11 UTC

According to Comment 2, reproduced the bug with edk2-ovmf-20220526git16779ede2d36-1.el9. And tested it with edk2-20230524-2.el9, not hit this issue. The guest started successfully. I think we can close it as CURRENTRELEASE. Thanks.
