Hi,
Did you see anything obvious in my kvm command line. I have set scsi1
to run virtio-scsi and also reduced the number of devices so that I only
had on scsi controller. The result was the same.
My guest VM is also running debian jessie BTW.
Thanks,
David

Please note: qemu-kvm does not exist, it is a trivial
one-line /bin/sh wrapper around qemu-system-x86_64.

Dear Maintainer,
I am not able to get discard to work on qcow2 disks
In my libvirt xml file I have the following:
<devices>
<emulator>/usr/bin/kvm</emulator>
<controller type='scsi' index='0' model='virtio-scsi'/>
................
<disk type='file' device='disk'>
<driver name='qemu' type='qcow2' cache='none' io='native'
discard='unmap'/>
<source file='/opt/marshall/vm/media-image/david.qcow2'/>
<target dev='sdd' bus='scsi'/>
</disk>
Please show the resulting (pieces from) qemu command line.
I can definitely use discard inside linux guest with virtio-scsi
and qcow2 drive images (even older linux guests works). So the
prob should be the way how your libvirt runs qemu.
Thanks,
