virtio-blk and virtio-scsi driver don't work with bhyve

Hello.

I'm going to ask another question about the behavior,because I want to understand if I'm dealing with a bug or with a regular method of working. So,please be patient with me. What I want to achieve is to pass thru two of my NTFS "formatted" disks to a Windows 11 VM,but without passing them thru using the USB controller in FreeBSD with a bhyve virtual machine (in the example below I tried to boot Windows 11 from the nvme disk nvd0.

I'm using this FreeBSD version :

FreeBSD marietto 13.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 13.0-RELEASE #5 n244809-dff3dead3734: Wed Feb 23 13:16:32 CET
2022     marietto@marietto:/usr/obj/usr/src/amd64.amd64/sys/GENERIC  amd64

I've configured the bhyve VM like this :

bhyve -S -c sockets=1,cores=2,threads=2 -m 4G -w -H -A \
-s 0,hostbridge \
-s 1,ahci-hd,/dev/nvd0 \
-s 2,virtio-blk,/dev/da4p2 \
-s 3,virtio-blk,/dev/da2p1 \
-s 8,virtio-net,tap4 \
-s 10,hda,play=/dev/dsp,rec=/dev/dsp \
-s 29,fbuf,tcp=0.0.0.0:5904,w=1440,h=900 \
-s 30,xhci,tablet \
-s 31,lpc \                           
-l bootrom,/usr/local/share/uefi-firmware/BHYVE_BHF_CODE.fd \
vm4 < /dev/null & sleep 2 && vncviewer 0:4

These are the NTFS disks that I would like to see inside the Windows 11 guest os :

-s 2,virtio-blk,/dev/da4p2 \
-s 3,virtio-blk,/dev/da2p1 \


=>         34  19532873661  da4  GPT  (9.1T)
           34        32734    1  ms-reserved  (16M)
32768  19532838912    2  ms-basic-data  (9.1T)
19532871680         2015       - free -  (1.0M)


=>         34  23437705149  da2  GPT  (11T)
           34         2014       - free -  (1.0M)
2048  23437701120    1  ms-basic-data  (11T)
23437703168         2015       - free -  (1.0M)

As you can see I've used the virtio-blk driver,so inside the Windows 11 VM I've installed the latest version of the virtio drivers. You can see what's the problem by taking a look at the images below. They are 0 byte large,so they aren't recognized by Windows 11. Is this a bug or what ? I've also used the ahci-hd driver but I've got the same result. They are USB 3.0 disks.

I've tried also :
bhyve -S -c sockets=1,cores=2,threads=2 -m 4G -w -H -A \
-s 0,hostbridge \
-s 1,ahci-hd,/dev/nvd0 \
-s 2,virtio-blk,/dev/da4 \
-s 3,virtio-blk,/dev/da2 \
-s 8,virtio-net,tap4 \
-s 10,hda,play=/dev/dsp,rec=/dev/dsp \
-s 29,fbuf,tcp=0.0.0.0:5904,w=1440,h=900 \
-s 30,xhci,tablet \
-s 31,lpc \                           
-l bootrom,/usr/local/share/uefi-firmware/BHYVE_BHF_CODE.fd \
vm4 < /dev/null & sleep 2 && vncviewer 0:4

and I've got this error :

Assertion failed: (n >= 2 && n <= BLOCKIF_IOV_MAX + 2), function pci_vtblk_proc, file /usr/src/usr.s
bin/bhyve/pci_virtio_block.c, line 324.

and I have also used the virtio-scsi driver like this :


bhyve -S -c sockets=1,cores=2,threads=2 -m 4G -w -H -A \ -s 0,hostbridge \ -s 1,ahci-hd,/dev/nvd0 \ -s 2,virtio-scsi,/dev/da4 \ -s 3,virtio-scsi,/dev/da2 \ -s 8,virtio-net,tap4 \ -s 10,hda,play=/dev/dsp,rec=/dev/dsp \ -s 29,fbuf,tcp=0.0.0.0:5904,w=1440,h=900 \ -s 30,xhci,tablet \ -s 31,lpc \ -l bootrom,/usr/local/share/uefi-firmware/BHYVE_BHF_CODE.fd \ vm4 < /dev/null & sleep 2 && vncviewer 0:4



and I've installed the scsi driver taking it from this virtio iso file :

https://fedorapeople.org/groups/virt/virtio-win/direct-downloads/archive-virtio/virtio-win-0.1.215-1/virtio-win-0.1.215.iso

and I have also installed the virtio-scsi driver,that has been accepted by windows,but the disks aren't recognized :

There are clearly various bugs to fix.

I will keep the discussion updated also here :
