-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 ============================================================================= FreeBSD-EN-16:12.hv_storvsc Errata Notice The FreeBSD Project Topic: Enable INQUIRY result check only on Windows 10 host systems Category: core Module: hv_storvsc Announced: 2016-08-12 Credits: Microsoft OSTC Affects: FreeBSD 10.3 Corrected: 2016-05-25 06:15:26 UTC (stable/10, 10.3-STABLE) 2016-08-12 04:01:16 UTC (releng/10.3, 10.3-RELEASE-p7) For general information regarding FreeBSD Errata Notices and Security Advisories, including descriptions of the fields above, security branches, and the following sections, please visit . I. Background A FreeBSD virtual machine running on Hyper-V uses hv_storvsc(4) to discover, access, and control block devices. The SCSI INQUIRY command is used to scan the disks attached to the virtual machine, and hv_storvsc(4) checks if the response from the host is valid. II. Problem Description On Windows 8 and earlier systems, the response to the INQUIRY command may return invalid results. III. Impact When a SCSI disk hotplug occurs, some disks may not be visible to the guest virtual machine despite being present. IV. Workaround No workaround is available however guest machines not running on Hyper-V on Windows 8 and earlier are unaffected. V. Solution Perform one of the following: 1) Upgrade your system to a supported FreeBSD stable or release / security branch (releng) dated after the correction date. After which, reboot the system. 2) To update your system via a binary patch: Systems running a RELEASE version of FreeBSD on the i386 or amd64 platforms can be updated via the freebsd-update(8) utility: # freebsd-update fetch # freebsd-update install After which, reboot the system. 3) To update your system via a source code patch: The following patches have been verified to apply to the applicable FreeBSD release branches. a) Download the relevant patch from the location below, and verify the detached PGP signature using your PGP utility. # fetch https://security.FreeBSD.org/patches/EN-16:12/hv_storvsc.patch # fetch https://security.FreeBSD.org/patches/EN-16:12/hv_storvsc.patch.asc # gpg --verify hv_storvsc.patch.asc b) Apply the patch. Execute the following commands as root: # cd /usr/src # patch < /path/to/patch c) Recompile your kernel as described in and reboot the system. VI. Correction details The following list contains the correction revision numbers for each affected branch. Branch/path Revision - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- stable/10/ r300656 releng/10.3/ r303984 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- To see which files were modified by a particular revision, run the following command, replacing NNNNNN with the revision number, on a machine with Subversion installed: # svn diff -cNNNNNN --summarize svn://svn.freebsd.org/base Or visit the following URL, replacing NNNNNN with the revision number: VII.
