    Description

      Got message "No Instance(s) Available" when running wmic MemoryChip get Capacity in windows guest

       

      Versions:

      kernel-5.14.0-405.el9.x86_64

      qemu-kvm-8.2.0-2.el9

      seabios-bin-1.16.3-2.el9.noarch

      win2019 with virtio-win-prewhql-0.1-245.iso

      How reproducible:

      5/5

      Steps to reproduce

      1.  boot a windows 2019 guest with seabios
      2. run wmic MemoryChip get Capacity in guest

      Expected results

      get the correct output: 

      PS C:\Users\Administrator> wmic MemoryChip get Capacity
      Capacity
      17179869184

      Actual results

      get the output: No Instance(s) Available

      Also CHID can not get any information with the latest pc-q35-rhel9.4.0.

       

      Additional information:

      1. Also got incorrect message when running "wmic cpu get socketDesignation"

      SocketDesignation

      The correct output as below:

      PS C:\Users\Administrator> wmic cpu get socketDesignation
      SocketDesignation
      CPU 0
      CPU 1

      2. downgrade to qemu-kvm-8.1.0-5.el9, all work well, it should be a regression bug.

      3. tested with edk2-ovmf-20231122-1.el9 and qemu-kvm-8.2.0-2.el9, not hit this issue.
