Gentle ping -- this is my first time sending a patch for QEMU and it
hasn't shown up in the qemu-devel mailing list web UI yet, so I can't
tell whether the mail is being sent/received successfully.

SunOS expects CD-ROM devices to have a block size of 512, and will
fail to mount or install using QEMU's default block size of 2048.
When initializing the SCSI device, allow the `physical_block_device'
block device option to override the default block size.

Hi John,
I saw this reply but didn't see the original patch - were you subscribed to the list
before you first sent it? If not, it may be that it got caught in a moderation queue
somewhere.
The CC email addresses look right, but do bear in mind that people are busy as the
7.1 release is just around the corner and so may not get to your patch right away.
The reason your patch caught my eye is that I've been having a similar discussion on
Gitlab at https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues/1127. Could you check your
git send-email configuration and then try and resend your patch to see if it appears
on the list?
ATB,
Mark.
