Hi,<br>
<br>
I have filed a bug "fdisk still shows the "/dev/sdb" partitions even
after the removal of scsi disk" for the upstream kernel.<br>
<br>
Bug link:<br>

<div id="yui_3_9_1_1_1371116020046_189"
class="yui3-editable_text-text">
<p>RHEL guest shows the partittions even after the removal of scsi
disk:<br>
fdisk still shows the "/dev/sdb" partitions even after the
removal of scsi disk.</p>
<p>Guest details:<br>
-------------------<br>
Kernel : 2.6.32-358</p>
<p>Host Details :</p>
<p>Upstream Kernel, Qemu, Libvirt and virt-manager<br>
-------<wbr>-------<wbr>-------<wbr>-------<wbr>-------<wbr>-------<wbr>-------<wbr>-------<wbr>-------<wbr>------</p>
<p>kernel version : 3.9.0+<br>
qemu version : QEMU emulator version 1.5.0<br>
libvirt version : 1.0.5<br>
virt-install : 0.600.3</p>
<p>Steps to reproduce the issue:</p>
<p>I. Add the SCSI disk through the virt-manager.<br>
2. Create the partition using fdisk (eg: /dev/sbb)<br>
3. Create a filesystem and format using mkfs.ext3 or mkfs.ext4<br>
4. Remove the scsi disk through the virt-manager.<br>
5. Again run the fdisk /dev/sdb, the guests still shows the
partition even after the removal of the disk.</p>
<p>This issue is not seen with virt-io disk.</p>
<p>This issue is also reproducible without even creating the
partitions.</p>
<p>Expected Result:</p>
<p>The output of fdisk /dev/sd* should not show the enties after
the removal of scsi disks</p>
