skattoju4 opened a new pull request #3319: Use virtio for platform emulator strings starting with Windows* URL: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/3319 ## Description This change addresses #3089. There was an issue where disks were being added with bus type ide when creating windows vms from isos. It is not possible to select bus type when creating a VM with an ISO. The bus type is inferred based on the platform emulator string provided to the KVM agent. This change adds code to set bus type to virtio in case the platform emulator string starts with Windows. Currently most modern operating systems support virtio so specific versions were removed from the platform emulator string check. Ideally, the default should be virtio and any exceptions should use ide. <!-- For new features, provide link to FS, dev ML discussion etc. --> <!-- In case of bug fix, the expected and actual behaviours, steps to reproduce. --> steps to reproduce are described in #3089 <!-- When "Fixes: #<id>" is specified, the issue/PR will automatically be closed when this PR gets merged --> <!-- For addressing multiple issues/PRs, use multiple "Fixes: #<id>" --> <!-- Fixes: # --> ## Types of changes <!--- What types of changes does your code introduce?
