When trying to put some stress on qemu by running the xfs testsuite I get the following: debian:~/xfs-cmds/xfstests# sh check [ 438.166822] SGI XFS with ACLs, security attributes, realtime, large block numbers, no debug enabled [ 438.185557] SGI XFS Quota Management subsystem [ 438.193150] hdb: task_no_data_intr: status=0x41 { DriveReady Error } [ 438.194018] hdb: task_no_data_intr: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError } [ 438.194195] ide: failed opcode was: 0x9d and after that the kernel seems to hang. Qemu is emulating a piix3 device, and using the piix driver. This is on a pretty old kvm (version 28) because newer ones don't even compile. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
