Any suggestions from anyone on why "Invalid Argument" is being returned ?
QEMU's error reporting for disk configs is known to be worse than
useless. You can't infer anything useful from "Invalid Argument"
I'm afraid.
I'm going to go out on a limb here and say its an O_DIRECT error. Reason
I'm guessing this is that O_DIRECT is not supported on tmpfs and when you
attempt to open() a file with O_DIRECT and its not supported you'll get
back -EINVAL from the kernel. Newer systems have /run as tmpfs and /var/run
symlinked to /run.
Oh, yes, good one.
I really wish QEMU would provide a better error message for this case,
since people hit it all the time
And (thanks to my colleague bharata) removing "cache=none" attribute
from the <driver> tag of <disk> xml
made it work even on tmpfs , since qemu uses O_DIRECT only when cache=none
