Re: [Xen-devel] ioctl 0000126c not supported by XL blkif

Yes, I am.

Could you try the patch below, hopefully it will give some indication
which process is calling the unimplemented ioctl. Once we have confirmed
for sure that it is BLKGETLASTSECT on x86 we can look at fixing it up.

ioctl 0000126c  from pid 130 "partx" not supported by XL blkif
ioctl 0000126c  from pid 145 "partx" not supported by XL blkif
ioctl 0000126c  from pid 162 "partx" not supported by XL blkif
ioctl 0000126c  from pid 179 "partx" not supported by XL blkif
ioctl 0000126c  from pid 194 "partx" not supported by XL blkif
ioctl 0000126c  from pid 209 "partx" not supported by XL blkif

My feeling is that the warning is pretty harmless. Though it might bite
you if you wanted to repartition or something.

partx.  I guess I need to go do some googling on why that is there.
