Subject: [PATCH] scsi: storvsc: Workaround for virtual DVD SCSI version
Date: Wed, 3 May 2017 15:56:32 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170503225632.19961-1-sthemmin@microsoft.com> (raw)
From: Stephen Hemminger <stephen@networkplumber.org>
commit f1c635b439a5c01776fe3a25b1e2dc546ea82e6f upstream
Hyper-V host emulation of SCSI for virtual DVD device reports SCSI
version 0 (UNKNOWN) but is still capable of supporting REPORTLUN.
Without this patch, a GEN2 Linux guest on Hyper-V will not boot
successfully with virtual DVD ROM device. What happens is that the SCSI
scan process falls back to doing sequential probing by INQUIRY. But the
storvsc driver has a previous workaround that masks/blocks all errors
reports from INQUIRY (or MODE_SENSE) commands. This workaround causes
the scan to then populate a full set of bogus LUN's on the target and
then sends kernel spinning off into a death spiral doing block reads on
the non-existent LUNs.
By setting the correct blacklist flags, the target with the DVD device
is scanned with REPORTLUN which works correctly.
