This is only a heuristic in the Linux LSI driver.  Its lack is harmless,
in fact the feature is not anymore required by SCSI standards.

 Thanks , this is good to hear the I/O error in the guest EXT3 file
system might have been just heavy usage then , only 256 MB of RAM and
no
swap partition ( it was badly configured , I know ) .
 There seemed to be some sort of timeouts both for git and the file
system. I might try something else like ext4, more RAM and swap then
see if the error persists.
 Once again thanks and on a personal note we have a Frugalware dev.
and friend of mine named Paolo too.



[Qemu-devel] lsi_scsi: error: ORDERED queue not implemented

 Hello

 I'm using :

qemu-system-arm --version
QEMU emulator version 1.0,1, Copyright (c) 2003-2008 Fabrice Bellard

and I have a premade ARM image which I start with:

qemu-system-arm -M versatilepb -m 256 -kernel
vmlinuz-3.1-versatile-fw5 -hda initrd-arm.img -append root=/dev/sda
ro quiet


Every now and then I get this:

lsi_scsi: error: ORDERED queue not implemented


 I'm not sure why this is, both host and guest run Frugalware Linux
which is not very famous , kernel is at version 3.2

 The file system for the guest is ext3, mounted from /dev/sda.

 The IO fails sometime in the guest system and it seems very slow in general.

 If you need any more information let me know. I can reproduce this
every time I make IO intensive operations like git clone on a large
repository.
