Currently the loop driver just simulates 512-byte blocks. When
creating bootable images for virtual machines it might be required
to use a different physical blocksize (eg 4k for S/390 DASD), as
the some bootloaders (like lilo or zipl for S/390) need to know
the physical block addresses of the kernel and initrd.
With this patchset the loop driver will export the logical and
physical blocksize and the current LOOP_SET_STATUS64 ioctl is
extended to set the logical blocksize by re-using the existing
'init' fields, which are currently unused.
As usual, comments and reviews are welcome.
Changes to v1:
- Move LO_FLAGS_BLOCKSIZE definition
- Reshuffle patches
Changes to v2:
- Include reviews from Ming Lei
Changes to v3:
- Include reviews from Christoph
- Merge patches
Changes to v4:
- Add LO_INFO_BLOCKSIZE definition

loop: Remove unused 'bdev' argument from loop_set_capacity
loop: support 4k physical blocksize

When generating bootable VM images certain systems (most notably
s390x) require devices with 4k blocksize. This patch implements
a new flag 'LO_FLAGS_BLOCKSIZE' which will set the physical
blocksize to that of the underlying device, and allow to change
the logical blocksize for up to the physical blocksize.
