4841a6
For accessing single blocks during boot, it's the logical block size that
4841a6
matters. (Physical block sizes are rather interesting e.g. for creating
4841a6
file systems with the correct alignment for speed reasons etc.).
4841a6
So the s390-ccw bios has to use the logical block size for calculating
4841a6
sector numbers during the boot phase, the "physical_block_exp" shift
4841a6
value must not be taken into account. This change fixes the boot process
4841a6
when the guest hast been installed on a disk where the logical block size
4841a6
differs from the physical one, e.g. if the guest has been installed
4841a6
like this:
4841a6
4841a6
 qemu-system-s390x -nographic -accel kvm -m 2G \
4841a6
  -drive if=none,id=d1,file=fedora.iso,format=raw,media=cdrom \
4841a6
  -device virtio-scsi -device scsi-cd,drive=d1 \
4841a6
  -drive if=none,id=d2,file=test.qcow2,format=qcow2
4841a6
  -device virtio-blk,drive=d2,physical_block_size=4096,logical_block_size=512
4841a6
4841a6
Linux correctly uses the logical block size of 512 for the installation,
4841a6
but the s390-ccw bios tries to boot from a disk with 4096 block size so
4841a6
far, as long as this patch has not been applied yet (well, it used to work
4841a6
by accident in the past due to the virtio_assume_scsi() hack that used to
4841a6
enforce 512 byte sectors on all virtio-block disks, but that hack has been
4841a6
well removed in commit 5447de2619050a0a4d to fix other scenarios).
