[Qemu-devel] [Bug 618533] [NEW] OpenSolaris guest fails to see the Solaris partitions of a physical disk in qemu-kvm-9999 (GIT)

[devsk]

Public bug reported:

# qemu-kvm --version
QEMU emulator version 0.13.50 (qemu-kvm-devel), Copyright (c) 2003-2008 Fabrice Bellard

The following disk is presented to guest as IDE disk with /dev/sdd as
path.

# fdisk -l /dev/sdd

Disk /dev/sdd: 750.2 GB, 750156374016 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 91201 cylinders, total 1465149168 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x7f3a03aa

The prtvtoc output is attached from both VirtualBox and Qemu-KVM. As can
be seen in the screenshots, a valid Solaris partition table (which is
inside the /dev/sdd3, marked 'bf' in Linux fdisk output) is not seen in
Qemu but seen in Virtualbox.

This makes the guest unbootable in Qemu because the root FS is not found
but its bootable in Virtualbox.

[Qemu-devel] [Bug 618533] Re: OpenSolaris guest fails to see the Solaris partitions of a physical disk in qemu-kvm-9999 (GIT)

[devsk]

Qemu's version of partition table is gotten using a OpenSolaris b134
livecd because I couldn't really boot the disk.

Basically, somehow all the slice labels are missing when booted in Qemu.
OpenSolaris thinks that /dev/sdd3 (which is a primary Solaris 'bf' type
partition) is not sliced. Hence, its showing 2 unmountable slices and 1
reserved slice.

When booted in VirtualBox, the correct slice table is seen. We can see
slice 0 being 'root' slice of about 16GB, slice 1 being 'swap' slice of
size about 6GB and slice 6 being the 'data' slice of about 26GB.

This is a showstopper bug for me to adopt KVM as the virtualization
solution because I just can't boot my OpenSolaris guest. I want to move
to KVM because of in-kernel support and better SMP support.

I thought C*H*S was equal to the physical size. if c <16384, h<16, s<63
for the physical, then max size disk it can support is about 8GB. what
gives?

And C*H*S IS equal to the disk size as shown in the fdisk -l output
above.

the issue.

Can someone please verify the integrity and apply?

It's probably there to report bugs. But it's much easier to review
submitted code when it's sent to the list. I don't think you have to
be a subscriber.

what's the list address? All the lists at the kvm main page are for kvm

Sorry, I missed that this was for qemu-kvm. Anyway, the patch is
probably applicable to QEMU as well and you actually filed the bug to
Qemu.

At least the patch hasn't been applied. I don't remember seeing it in the list.

Is this issue still reproducible with the latest version of QEMU, or
could we close this issue nowadays?

  OpenSolaris guest fails to see the Solaris partitions of a physical
  disk in qemu-kvm-9999 (GIT)

Status in QEMU:
  Incomplete

  The following disk is presented to guest as IDE disk with /dev/sdd as
  path.

  # fdisk -l /dev/sdd

  Disk /dev/sdd: 750.2 GB, 750156374016 bytes
  255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 91201 cylinders, total 1465149168 sectors
  Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
  Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
  I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
  Disk identifier: 0x7f3a03aa

     Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
  /dev/sdd1              63     7887914     3943926   1b  Hidden W95 FAT32
  /dev/sdd2         7887915   980736119   486424102+  83  Linux
  /dev/sdd3   *   980736120  1083150494    51207187+  bf  Solaris
  /dev/sdd4      1083150495  1465144064   190996785    5  Extended
  /dev/sdd5      1083150558  1107746009    12297726   83  Linux
  /dev/sdd6      1107746073  1465144064   178698996    7  HPFS/NTFS

  The prtvtoc output is attached from both VirtualBox and Qemu-KVM. As
  can be seen in the screenshots, a valid Solaris partition table (which
  is inside the /dev/sdd3, marked 'bf' in Linux fdisk output) is not
  seen in Qemu but seen in Virtualbox.

  This makes the guest unbootable in Qemu because the root FS is not
  found but its bootable in Virtualbox.
