[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2] raw-posix: Detect legacy floppy via ioctl

[Cole Robinson]

Current legacy floppy detection is hardcoded based on source file
name. Make this smarter by attempting a floppy specific ioctl.

v2: Give ioctl check higher priority than filename check,
    s/IDE/legacy/

Looks good,

same comment applies as to the cdrom one.

These two patches break boot from an image file.  My suspicious is that 
it's failing because the errno is ENOSYS.

You probably want to do the opposite and check for a positive return 
result instead of checking for the absence of a positive result.
