That almost sounds like a bug with the usb controller reset device or something 
to that effect.  I assume both usb ports are on the same controller.

Both on current, and both updated, and rebooted since last update.

Anyway, problem solved. I plugged the USB device into a different port, and it 
worked (I got xvdi in the appVM). Then I detached and moved it back to the port 
where I was having the problem, and this time it worked there too. Aargh, 
heisenbug.

I wonder if this might be related to a recent patch in testing. Are both
your dom0 and templates on the same repository (current vs. testing) and
updated? A recent patch also required a reboot once both were updated.

[qubes-users] USB VM based on fedora-26 doesn't pass block devices

2018-02-20 Thread Kelly Dean
I'm getting the same bug as reported at 
https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/2018

The bug was originally reported against r3.1 and fedora-23-minimal, and fixed 
in r3.2 and fedora-24-minimal. However, I'm getting it on r3.2, using fedora-26 
(full, not minimal) for both my USB VM and my appVM. Both Qubes and the 
template are fully updated. Rebooting the system doesn't fix it. Trying a 
different appVM also doesn't fix it.

qvm-block -l says the USB device is attached to the appVM. But the appVM has no 
/dev/xvdi

xl block-list shows the appVM's four standard block devices with state 4, and 
it shows a fifth device with state 3. This is the same result that the OP got. 
I don't know what the state numbers 3 and 4 mean, and neither does google. The 
man page for xl also says nothing about them.

/var/log/xen/xen-hotplug.log reveals nothing helpful.

The OP solved his problem by installing perl in the template. But I'm using the 
full fedora-26, which already has perl installed.
