With pvSCSI it is possible to use physical SCSI devices from a XEN domain. The support consists of a backend in the privileged Domain-0 doing the real I/O and a frontend in the unprivileged domU passing I/O-requests to the backend.About the question that Christopher Hellwig asked - was that ever answered? Sure. That's the first item under "Changes in V2". The code is taken (and adapted) from the original pvSCSI implementation done for Linux 2.6 in 2008 by Fujitsu.
