Hmm, something in the new probing code is failing to recognize that rbd devices are not local files, and therefore should not be probed via stat() and open() calls. > Using git bisect, I narrowed the problem down to this as the first > commit to break this setup: > > 4d34c92947e8cf9e9bedfa227ada1d2dba92d68a is the first bad commit > commit 4d34c92947e8cf9e9bedfa227ada1d2dba92d68a > Author: Eric Blake<eblake(a)redhat.com> > Date: Tue Oct 9 16:08:14 2012 -0600 > That may be the commit that exposed the problem, but I'm sure the actual regression was introduced as a latent bug in one of my earlier conversions in src/util/storage_file.c: > These all look closely related as well to the problem commit: > > http://libvirt.org/git/?p=libvirt.git;a=commitdiff;h=67aea3fb780346b4aa5a... > > http://libvirt.org/git/?p=libvirt.git;a=commitdiff;h=38c4a9cc40476bd2e598... > > http://libvirt.org/git/?p=libvirt.git;a=commitdiff;h=4d34c92947e8cf9e9bed... > which you have indeed identified as possible culprits. > > If I build libvirt from sources before these commits and then run the > exact virsh-attach command shown above, the attachment works and I do > not get any errors. > > I wanted to see if anyone had any insights on this, or perhaps a commit > to correct this issue.

If not, I probably won't be able to get to this until next week, or someone else may beat me to it. I also know that Peter is also trying to plug another regression in the same code: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2012-November/msg00894.html
