[SeaBIOS] [PATCH] esp-scsi: terminate DMA transfer when ESP data transfer completes
Posted by Mark Cave-Ayland 9 months, 2 weeks ago
When the ESP data transfer completes indicated by the STAT_TC flag being set,
terminate the DMA transfer by issuing a DMA IDLE command. Otherwise in the case
where the guest sends a reset followed by an ESP command, the DMA signal remains
enabled and so the next SeaBIOS DMA transfer begins immediately when the next
ESP command is received rather than waiting until the data is ready and the DMA
command is issued.

With this fix it is possible to boot a Windows XP ISO to the installer and
complete a full installation within QEMU directly using SeaBIOS.

[This fixes the Windows XP setup issue reported by Paolo when DC390 support was
first added to QEMU (see https://lore.kernel.org/all/501A94D0.3080502@redhat.com/
for the original thread) way back in 2012.]
