`efi-virtio.rom` file missing in latest hostos devel leads to VM boot failure with virtio devices #39

Closed sathnaga closed 6 years ago

sathnaga commented 6 years ago
Mirrored with LTC bug https://bugzilla.linux.ibm.com/show_bug.cgi?id=167875 Looks like recent hostos devel builds removes the `qemu-system-x86-2.11.91-1.dev.git46a0689.el7.centos.ppc64le` which has the rom files ``` rpm -ql qemu-system-x86-2.11.91-1.dev.git46a0689.el7.centos.ppc64le /usr/share/qemu/bios-256k.bin /usr/share/qemu/bios.bin /usr/share/qemu/efi-e1000.rom /usr/share/qemu/efi-e1000e.rom /usr/share/qemu/efi-ne2k_pci.rom /usr/share/qemu/efi-pcnet.rom /usr/share/qemu/efi-rtl8139.rom /usr/share/qemu/efi-virtio.rom /usr/share/qemu/efi-vmxnet3.rom /usr/share/qemu/kvmvapic.bin /usr/share/qemu/linuxboot.bin /usr/share/qemu/linuxboot_dma.bin /usr/share/qemu/multiboot.bin /usr/share/qemu/pxe-e1000.rom /usr/share/qemu/pxe-ne2k_pci.rom /usr/share/qemu/pxe-pcnet.rom /usr/share/qemu/pxe-rtl8139.rom /usr/share/qemu/pxe-virtio.rom /usr/share/qemu/qemu-icon.bmp /usr/share/qemu/qemu_vga.ndrv /usr/share/qemu/sgabios.bin /usr/share/qemu/vgabios-cirrus.bin /usr/share/qemu/vgabios-qxl.bin /usr/share/qemu/vgabios-stdvga.bin /usr/share/qemu/vgabios-vmware.bin /usr/share/qemu/vgabios.bin ``` When I have flashed the host with latest devel branch repo, that seems not have the above package and hence the vm start fails ``` usr/bin/virt-install --connect=qemu:///system --hvm --accelerate --name 'avocado-vt-vm1' --memory=1024 --vcpu=2 --import --vnc --serial pty --memballoon model=virtio --controller type=scsi,model=virtio-scsi --disk path=/home/sath/avocado-fvt-wrapper/data/avocado-vt/images/hostos-ppc64le.qcow2,bus=scsi,size=10,format=qcow2 --network=bridge=virbr0,model=virtio,mac=52:54:00:a6:a7:a8 --noautoconsole WARNING No operating system detected, VM performance may suffer.

Yes, we removed the qemu-system-x86 package since it was just packaging the roms:

https://github.com/open-power-host-os/versions/pull/263

Some of the roms should have been packaged along with qemu-system-ppc instead of being removed. I'll include them once again.

Thanks @sathnaga

@fabianorosas older systems which already installed(CI) during yum update will fail like this I hope this will also get resolved with this? if not can you please take care, thanks!

@fabianorosas I suggest to include all the roms available from qemu-system-x86-2.11.91-1.dev.git46a0689.el7.centos.ppc64le that way we will not break any unknown areas later.

https://github.com/open-power-host-os/versions/pull/266 should fix the issues reported here. I reverted all the roms back to qemu-system-x86 package.

We will at another opportunity update HostOS qemu spec file to match what Fedora is doing https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/qemu/raw/f28/f/qemu.spec . I hope to have all files in their correct places so we can stop pulling in the qemu-system-x86 package.

@sathnaga please give a try and report back if you find any issues. Thanks!

After the latest devel update,we do not see this issue.
