I was looking through the archives and found this: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2014-08/msg01028.html That's exactly my issue and the patch will resolve it. But this patch has not been merged yet and it does not apply on top of 2.2.0 cleanly. Any ideas what happened to the patch there? I will appreciate any help. -devsk
