Until libblkio 1.3.0, virtio-blk drivers had completion eventfd notifications enabled from the start, but from the next releases this is no longer the case, so we have to explicitly enable them. In fact, the libblkio documentation says they could be disabled, so we should always enable them at the start if we want to be sure to get completion eventfd notifications: By default, the driver might not generate completion events for requests so it is necessary to explicitly enable the completion file descriptor before use: void blkioq_set_completion_fd_enabled(struct blkioq *q, bool enable); I discovered this while trying a development version of libblkio: the guest kernel hangs during boot, while probing the device. Fixes: fd66dbd424f5 ("blkio: add libblkio block driver") Signed-off-by: Stefano Garzarella <sgarzare@redhat.com> --- block/blkio.c | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+)
