Can't reproduce, but can reproduce something similar. Freshly booted
guest running RHEL-7 alpha, with the CD mounted:
(qemu) info block cd
cd: r7.iso (raw, read-only)
Removable device: locked, tray closed
Looks good. Try to eject:
(qemu) eject cd
Device 'cd' is locked
Looks good. This should have signalled the guest "user wants to eject".
The guest should either ignore it, or unmount, unlock and eject.
Apparently, it does that:
(qemu) info block cd
cd: r7.iso (raw, read-only)
Removable device: locked, tray closed
(qemu) eject cd
Device 'cd' is locked
(qemu) info block cd
cd: r7.iso (raw, read-only)
Removable device: locked, tray closed
(qemu) info block cd
cd: r7.iso (raw, read-only)
Removable device: not locked, tray open
Except it forgets to unmount! dmesg has "VFS: busy inodes on changed
media or resized disk sr0".
Need somebody to find out how exactly this fails, and whether it's a
guest bug or a QEMU bug.
