Better don't hold your breath here. > 2. AHCI emulation works fine - but only in Linux GOS. Unfortunately we would like to run it in FreeBSD. The controller is seen but no drive can be detected. Therefore my question is: What is the status of this emulation? Are there any known issues? Are there any patches/fixes on the way? AHCI emulation works with all guests I've tested so far except for one BSD flavor. I guess it was FreeBSD then :). The FreeBSD driver does some very awkward things, loading the AHCI driver only if it detects an ICH IDE controller. I debugged it for about a day and then just gave up on it, as we do have some pretty skilled FreeBSD developers in the community and I was hoping they'd just take a look at it :). If you're interested in getting AHCI to work with FreeBSD, I'd be more than happy to review your patches :). Alex PS: Device emulation mails should always go to qemu-devel, as that's the project developing them. The KVM list is mainly for KVM specific code (like device passthrough for now), but AHCI definitely belongs to the qemu category. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
