Hi George,


> Yes; qemu knows how to be a Xen PV block back-end.

Very interesting. Is there documentation about this somewhere ?
I had a look some time ago and it was really not very clear.

Things like what Xen version support this. And with which features (
indirect descriptors, persistent grants, discard, flush, ...) and/or
which limitation.

And did anyone check the theory currently ? :)

Yes I can definitely see the appeal.


Cheers,
