The following sequence happens:
218e99
- the SeaBIOS virtio-blk driver does not support the WCE feature, which
218e99
causes QEMU to disable writeback caching
218e99
218e99
- the Linux virtio-blk driver resets the device, finds WCE is available
218e99
but writeback caching is disabled; tells block layer to not send cache
218e99
flush commands
218e99
218e99
- the Linux virtio-blk driver sets the DRIVER_OK bit, which causes
218e99
writeback caching to be re-enabled, but the Linux virtio-blk driver does
218e99
not know of this side effect and cache flushes remain disabled
218e99
218e99
The bug is at the third step.  If the guest does know about CONFIG_WCE,
218e99
QEMU should ignore the WCE feature's state.  The guest will control the
218e99
cache mode solely using configuration space.  This change makes Linux
218e99
do flushes correctly, but Linux will keep SeaBIOS's writethrough mode.
218e99
218e99
Hence, whenever the guest is reset, the cache mode of the disk should
218e99
be reset to whatever was specified in the "-drive" option.  With this
218e99
change, the Linux virtio-blk driver finds that writeback caching is
218e99
enabled, and tells the block layer to send cache flush commands
218e99
appropriately.
