[Bug 1233466] Re: Hot-Add Memory failing for lack of udev rule

 

Hi Martin, Thanks for accommodating the request for the udev rule. The
rule needs to live in the guest as Hyper-V does not understand udev
rules.

Yes, we did test with Andy's udev rule from comment 14 and it seems to
work. Only issue we saw was that it seemed to suppress some of our other
drivers such as:

1. hyperv-fb
2. hv_utils
3. hv_balloon

It would be really helpful if you guys could do some unit testing to
ensure that our drivers are loaded even after adding the udev rule then
that would be great.

The entire patch along with complete conversation is available here:

Please let me know if you need further information.
Thanks,
Abhishek
