Subject: virtiofsd: Where should it live?
Date: Mon, 25 Nov 2019 18:50:21 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191125185021.GB3767@work-vm> (raw)

Hi,
  There's been quite a bit of discussion about where virtiofsd, our
implemenation of a virtiofs daemon, should live.  I'd like to get
this settled now, because I'd like to tidy it up for the next
qemu cycle.

For reference it's based on qemu's livhost-user+chunks of libfuse.
It can't live in libfuse because we change enough of the library
to break their ABI.  It's C, and we've got ~100 patches - which
we can split into about 3 chunks.

Some suggestions so far:
  a) In contrib
     This is my current working assumption; the main objection is it's
     a bit big and pulls in a chunk of libfuse.

  b) In a submodule

  c) Just separate

Your suggestions/ideas please.  My preference is (a).

Dave
