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 2012-03-27 02:36:25 UTC 
Description of problem:
assigning lots of usb devices to guest, usb-hub will be added automatically, but there is one usb-storage disk left behind, miss to be detected in the windows guest.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
host info:
# uname -r && rpm -q qemu-kvm
2.6.32-251.el6.x86_64
qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.265.el6.x86_64
# rpm -q seabios
seabios-0.6.1.2-12.el6.x86_64 
guest info:
guest_name: win7sp1-64
virtio-win: virtio-win-prewhql-0.1-24 

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1.boot guest with "-readconfig ich9-ehci-uhci.cfg", assign 16 of usb devices and let the usb-hub add automatically.

3.initialize and format all the disks in the guest var "Computer---->Manage---->Disk Management".
 
Actual results:
after the step 3, only detect 15 usb-storage disks in the "Disk Management", and all the 15 usb-storage disks can be initialized and formatted successfully.
But there is one usb-storage disk left behind, miss to be detected in the windows guest, and i can find only 15 USB Mass Storage Devices in the "System device" form the "Device Manager".

Expected results:
should detect 16 usb-storage disks, and all the disks can be initialized and formatted successfully.

Additional info:
1.If i boot guest with "-readconfig ich9-ehci-uhci.cfg", assign 15 of usb devices in the step 1, only can detect 14 usb-storage disks after the step 3.
2.ich9-ehci-uhci.cfg can be found in:

Hmm, doesn't reproduce, works for me.
win7 guest sees all 16 usb disks just fine.
How big are your usb drives?  /me uses 256 MB

Hi Gerd,

   I have recreated the usb-storage disks, each of them are 256MB, and retest it as the same steps, but still hit the issue. I boot the guest with 16 of usb devices, let the usb-hub add automatically, but can only detect 15 usb devices in the guest.

   By the way, i tried many times, and the test results as following：

--------------------------------------------
    how many add     |   how many detect
--------------------------------------------
         16          |       15                 
--------------------------------------------
         13          |       12                 
--------------------------------------------
         12          |       11                 
--------------------------------------------
          9          |        8                 
--------------------------------------------
          8          |        8                 
--------------------------------------------
          6          |        6                 
--------------------------------------------
          5          |        5                 
--------------------------------------------

Try 2.6.32-253.el6.x86_64 or newer.
Might be yet another dup of 796118.

Hi Gerd,

   I have retested this issue on the 2.6.32-253.el6.x86_64 with the same steps assigned 16 of usb devices, the guest can detect the 16 usb-storage disks, and all the 16 usb-storage disks can be initialized and formatted successfully. 

   So, this issue have been fixed on the latest qemu-kvm version.

Thx. & Best wish
