AHCI disks have same serial number on Bhyve

[Ashutosh Kumar]

Hi All

 

We are running FreeNAS on Bhyve with 2 AHCI disks and are
trying to add them using ZFS Volume Manager in FreeNAS with Encryption. The
disks fail to add with following error:

<snip>

MultipleObjectsReturned at /storage/volumemanager/

get() returned more than one Disk -- it returned 2!

</snip>

 

FreeNAS uses disk serial number as identifier. We found that
on Bhyve all AHCI controllers return common disk serial number i.e. ‘123456’.
See attached screenshot. Due to this FreeNAS is not able to uniquely identify
an AHCI disk when encryption support is enabled. Kindly let us know if an
update to AHCI driver is in work to fix this issue.
