    ata_piix: reenable MS Virtual PC guests · d9904344
    Olaf Hering authored
    An earlier commit cd006086 ("ata_piix:
    defer disks to the Hyper-V drivers by default") broke MS Virtual PC
    guests. Hyper-V guests and Virtual PC guests have nearly identical DMI
    info. As a result the driver does currently ignore the emulated hardware
    in Virtual PC guests and defers the handling to hv_blkvsc. Since Virtual
    PC does not offer paravirtualized drivers no disks will be found in the
    guest.
    
    One difference in the DMI info is the product version. This patch adds a
    match for MS Virtual PC 2007 and "unignores" the emulated hardware.
    
    This was reported for openSuSE 12.1 in bugzilla:

    Here is a detailed list of DMI info from example guests:
