Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v4 0/4] usb-msd: Add usb-storage, removable=on|off property
Date: Mon, 24 Jan 2011 15:34:57 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1295883301-7278-1-git-send-email-stefanha@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)

Allow overriding the SCSI INQUIRY removable (RMB) bit for scsi-disk and usb-msd
devices.  In particular this addresses the problem that some usb-msd devices
have the bit set while other do not have it set.  Now the user can choose and
get desired guest behavior.

qemu -usb
    -drive if=none,file=test.img,cache=none,id=disk0
    -device usb-storage,drive=disk0,removable=on

The default is off.

v4:
 * Explicitly state that scsi-generic does not support the removable bit override
 * Try to make the scsi_bus_legacy_add_drive() commit description clearer

v3:
 * Document removable property in qdev-device-use.txt
 * Use bit number 0 instead of bit 1 for the qdev property

v2:
 * Rewritten to override the bit at the scsi-disk level
