Hi Srikanth,
Thanks for reporting this issue. It is strange that the virtio-blk driver is working with a similar change.
I am looking into why this may be failing.
Regards,
Sami Mujawar

Hello all,
After the patches [1fc55a39, b342070c] OvmfPkg: Use heap memory for virtio-blk request/OvmfPkg: Use heap memory for virtio-scsi request got merged, this regression is spotted.
AMD SVM/SEV/SEVES guest boot fails with OVMF packages [Ia3264/X64] built from today's upstream edk2 repository[Head: 85fad99].
Guest boot with OVMF.fd or only with OVMF_CODE.fd gets stuck at below point:
Divisor = 1
BaudRate/Actual (115200/115200) = 100%

If both OVMF code and vars file are provided the issue is not hit.
