[BUG] scsi: vmw_pvscsi: Boot hangs during scsi under qemu, post commit e662502b3a78
Hi,
Commit e662502b3a78 ("scsi: vmw_pvscsi: Set correct residual data length"),
and its backports to stable trees, makes kernel hang during boot, when
ran as a VM under qemu with following parameters:
-drive file=$DISKFILE,if=none,id=sda
-device pvscsi
-device scsi-hd,bus=scsi.0,drive=sda
Diving deeper, commit e662502b3a78

assumes 'e->dataLen' is properly armed with actual num of bytes
transferred; alas qemu's hw/scsi/vmw_pvscsi.c never arms the 'dataLen'
field of the completion descriptor (kept zero).
As a result, the residual count is set as the *entire* 'scsi_bufflen' of a
good transfer, which makes upper scsi layers repeatedly ignore this
valid transfer.
Not properly arming 'dataLen' seems as an oversight in qemu, which needs
to be fixed.
However, since kernels with commit e662502b3a78 (and backports) now fail
to boot under qemu's "-device pvscsi", a suggested workaround is to set
the residual count *only* if 'e->dataLen' is armed, e.g:
