[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1594239] Re: After adding more scsi disks for Aarch64 virtual machine, start the VM and got Qemu Error

[Tom Hanson]

I tested Laszlo's patch against this scenario and it eliminated the
error.

However, I'm still not convinced that it's needed.

Let's start with a basic question: Does it make sense for there to be
more than one MMIO "bus" on a system?

After all, it's NOT a physical bus and there's only one set of physical
memory (at least on anything we're currently modelling).

Would it make as much sense to disallow a second virtio-mmio bus??

Title:
  After adding more scsi disks for Aarch64 virtual machine, start the VM
  and got Qemu Error

Status in QEMU:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Description
  ===========
  Using virt-manager to create a VM in Aarch64, Ubuntu 16.04.
  Add scsi disk to the VM. After add four or more scsi disks, start the VM and 
will got Qemu error.

  Steps to reproduce
  ==================
  1.Use virt-manager to create a VM.
  2.After the VM is started, add scsi disk to the VM. They will be allocated to 
"sdb,sdc,sdd....." .
  3.If we got a disk name > sdg, virt-manager will also assign a virtio-scsi 
controller for this disk.And the VM will be shutdown.
  4.Start the VM, will see the error log.

  
  Expected result
  ===============
  Start the vm smoothly.The added disks can work.

  Actual result
  =============
  Got the error:
  starting domain: internal error: process exited while connecting to monitor: 
qemu-system-aarch64: /build/qemu-zxCwKP/qemu-2.5+dfsg/migration/savevm.c:620:
