What's the status of the SATA controller migration bug? Are the patches for it expected to be in 2.4? Looks like they didn't make it into 2.3.
That's a question better suited for the qemu developers than us. I'm Cc'ing John Snow, who authored the qemu patches. John?
All of the issues I am aware of have been fixed for 2.4. If you run into issues, please report them to me and qemu-devel@nongnu.org. Thanks!
Since you last wrote, if the SATA controller patches aren't in yet, is there any new way to avoid the SATA controller device, if you have no SATA devices?
No, it is impossible for libvirt to remove the SATA controller - as I explained in the email you replied to, if you start up a q35-based qemu virtual machine, it will have a SATA controller at 00:1f.2 and there is no way provided by qemu to prevent this, so we just have to live with it until it's fixed in qemu.
