[libvirt] [PATCH v2] domain_conf: skip boot order check of CD-ROM or floppy device when change-media
Posted by Chen Hanxiao 7 years, 4 months ago 
From: Chen Hanxiao <chenhanxiao@gmail.com>

If we insert or eject a CD-ROM/floppy device by:
 'virsh change-media VM --eject/--insert some.iso --live',
and the original CD-ROM device was configed with a boot order,
we may get:
  unsupported configuration: boot order 2 is already used by another device

We just updated 'source file' section rather than hotplug a new device.
This check should be skipped in this case.

Attempting to change the boot index on update won't work and should be
forbidden, as stated in the review for v1:

Even though cdrom hotplug is not supported by libvirt, assuming that
we're dealing with an update just because of the device type is wrong:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2018-January/msg00180.html

virDomainDefCompatibleDevice should be aware of the operation (attach
vs. update) and behave accordingly (forbid duplicit bootindexes for
attach and a bootindex change for update)

My case is not try to change boot index, but to change-media:

1) boot a VM with a CD-ROM, a centos7.1 ISO inside
2) change iso from centos7.3 to centos7.2 by:
#  change-media c72 hda   /media/b/ISO/CentOS-7-x86_64-DVD-1611.iso  --live
Successfully updated media.

This works and we can see cd-rom changed inside guest.

But if we had <boot order>
    <disk type='file' device='disk'>
      <driver name='qemu' type='qcow2'/>
      <source file='/media/b/IMG/c72.qcow2'/>
      <target dev='vda' bus='virtio'/>
 +    <boot order='1'/>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x07' function='0x0'/>
    </disk>
    <disk type='file' device='cdrom'>
      <driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
      <source file='/media/b/ISO/CentOS-7-x86_64-DVD-1511.iso'/>
      <target dev='hda' bus='ide'/>
      <readonly/>
 +    <boot order='2'/>
      <address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='0'/>
    </disk>

Then change media will fail:
 #  change-media c72 hda   /media/b/ISO/CentOS-7-x86_64-DVD-1511.iso  --live
error: Failed to complete action update on media
error: unsupported configuration: boot order 2 is already used by another device

This is a common case when install OS with multiple DVDs,
or change DVD media when guest is active.

As we can successfully 'virsh change-media' without <boot order> of CD-ROM device,
should we forbid this case for a live domain?
