+SCSI passthrough of SATA cdrom -> errors & performance issues
+
+qemu 5.0, compiled from git
+
+I am passing through a SATA cdrom via SCSI passthrough, with this libvirt XML:
+
+    <hostdev mode='subsystem' type='scsi' managed='no' sgio='unfiltered' rawio='yes'>
+      <source>
+        <adapter name='scsi_host3'/>
+        <address bus='0' target='0' unit='0'/>
+      </source>
+      <alias name='hostdev0'/>
+      <address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='0'/>
+    </hostdev>
+
+It seems to mostly work, I have written discs with it, except I am getting errors that cause reads to take about 5x as long as they should, under certain circumstances.  It appears to be based on the guest's read block size.
+
+I found that if on the guest I run, say `dd if=$some_large_file bs=262144|pv > /dev/null`, `iostat` and `pv` disagree about how much is being read by a factor of about 2.  Also many kernel messages like this happen on the guest:
+
+[  190.919684] sr 0:0:0:0: [sr0] tag#160 FAILED Result: hostbyte=DID_OK driverbyte=DRIVER_SENSE cmd_age=0s
+[  190.919687] sr 0:0:0:0: [sr0] tag#160 Sense Key : Aborted Command [current] 
+[  190.919689] sr 0:0:0:0: [sr0] tag#160 Add. Sense: I/O process terminated
+[  190.919691] sr 0:0:0:0: [sr0] tag#160 CDB: Read(10) 28 00 00 18 a5 5a 00 00 80 00
+[  190.919694] blk_update_request: I/O error, dev sr0, sector 6460776 op 0x0:(READ) flags 0x80700 phys_seg 5 prio class 0
+
+If I change to bs=131072 the errors stop and performance is normal.
+
+(262144 happens to be the block size ultimately used by md5sum, which is how I got here)
+
+I also ran strace on the qemu process while it was happening, and noticed SG_IO calls like this:
+
+21748 10:06:29.330910 ioctl(22, SG_IO, {interface_id='S', dxfer_direction=SG_DXFER_FROM_DEV, cmd_len=10, cmdp="\x28\x00\x00\x12\x95\x5a\x00\x00\x80\x00", mx_sb_len=252, iovec_count=0, dxfer_len=262144, timeout=4294967295, flags=SG_FLAG_DIRECT_IO <unfinished ...>

+[etc]
+
+I suspect qemu is the culprit because I have tried a 4.19 guest kernel as well as a 5.9 one, with the same result.
+
+Just discovered that `hdparm -a 128` works around the issue (it was 256 at boot).
+
+
+The QEMU project is currently moving its bug tracking to another system.
+For this we need to know which bugs are still valid and which could be
+closed already. Thus we are setting the bug state to "Incomplete" now.
+
+If the bug has already been fixed in the latest upstream version of QEMU,
+then please close this ticket as "Fix released".
+
+If it is not fixed yet and you think that this bug report here is still
+valid, then you have two options:
+
+1) If you already have an account on gitlab.com, please open a new ticket
+for this problem in our new tracker here:
+
+    https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues
+
+and then close this ticket here on Launchpad (or let it expire auto-
+matically after 60 days). Please mention the URL of this bug ticket on
+Launchpad in the new ticket on GitLab.
+
+2) If you don't have an account on gitlab.com and don't intend to get
+one, but still would like to keep this ticket opened, then please switch
+the state back to "New" or "Confirmed" within the next 60 days (other-
+wise it will get closed as "Expired"). We will then eventually migrate
+the ticket automatically to the new system (but you won't be the reporter
+of the bug in the new system and thus you won't get notified on changes
+anymore).
+
+Thank you and sorry for the inconvenience.

+[Expired for QEMU because there has been no activity for 60 days.]
