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 of problem:
If using local.img or attch.img as a image name then hot-plug the disk into guest, it's okay, however, it will be failed if hot-unplug the disk from the guest.
Other special image name also should meet the problem, but I'm not sure what they are, at present, 'local.img' and 'attch.img' also can reproduce the issue.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
# rpm -q libvirt qemu-kvm-rhev kernel
libvirt-0.9.10-21.el6.x86_64
qemu-kvm-rhev-0.12.1.2-2.293.el6.x86_64
kernel-2.6.32-220.el6.x86_64
How reproducible:
always(using 'local.img' or 'attch.img' as a image name)
Steps to Reproduce:
1. # qemu-img create /var/lib/libvirt/images/local.img 10M
Formatting '/var/lib/libvirt/images/local.img', fmt=raw size=10485760
2. # virsh start <domain> such as domain is 'myVM'
3. # virsh attach-disk myVM /var/lib/libvirt/images/local.img vdb
4. # virsh detach-disk myVM vdb
Actual results:
# virsh attach-disk myVM /var/lib/libvirt/images/local.img vdb
Disk attached successfully
# virsh detach-disk myVM vdb
error: Failed to detach disk
error: (device_definition):7: Extra content at the end of the document
</disk>�
-----------^
Expected results:
fix it.
Additional info:
It seems virsh/libvirt can't deal with some special key words image name when running virsh detach-disk.
Verify pass on
libvirt-0.9.13-3.el6.x86_64
qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.298.el6.x86_64
kernel-2.6.32-289.el6.x86_64
Do test
# virsh attach-disk vr-rhel6u3-x86_64-kvm /var/lib/libvirt/images/local.img vdb
Disk attached successfully
# virsh detach-disk vr-rhel6u3-x86_64-kvm vdb
Disk detached successfully
# virsh attach-disk vr-rhel6u3-x86_64-kvm /var/lib/libvirt/images/attch.img vdb
Disk attached successfully
# virsh detach-disk vr-rhel6u3-x86_64-kvm vdb
Disk detached successfully
no problem
Also according to comment 4, do testing

succeeded to complete action insert on media
# virsh change-media 2 hdc --eject
