[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 3/3] raw-posix: Re-open host CD-ROM after media c


From: Stefan Hajnoczi
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 3/3] raw-posix: Re-open host CD-ROM after media change
Date: Tue, 29 Mar 2011 20:04:42 +0100

Piggy-back on the guest CD-ROM polling to poll on the host.  Open and
close the host CD-ROM file descriptor to ensure we read the new size and
not a stale size.

Two things are going on here:

1. If hald/udisks is not already polling CD-ROMs on the host then
   re-opening the CD-ROM causes the host to read the new medium's size.

2. There is a bug in Linux which means the CD-ROM file descriptor must
   be re-opened in order for lseek(2) to see the new size.  The
   inode size gets out of sync with the underlying device (which you can
   confirm by checking that /sys/block/sr0/size and lseek(2) do not
   match after media change).  I have raised this with the
   maintainers but we need a workaround for the foreseeable future.

Note that these changes are all in a #ifdef __linux__ section.
