From: Jason Andryuk <jason.andryuk@xxxxxxx> From: Jason Andryuk <jason.andryuk@xxxxxxx> backendtype=phy using the blktap kernel module needs to use write_dev, but tapback can't support that. tapback should perform better, but make the script compatible with the old kernel module again. Signed-off-by: Jason Andryuk <jason.andryuk@xxxxxxx> --- This is tested with tapback, but untested with phy/blkback since I don't have the kernel module setup. tools/hotplug/Linux/block-tap | 21 +++++++++++++++------ 1 file changed, 15 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/tools/hotplug/Linux/block-tap b/tools/hotplug/Linux/block-tap index 126e472786..8661ce77e3 100755 --- a/tools/hotplug/Linux/block-tap +++ b/tools/hotplug/Linux/block-tap @@ -20,9 +20,13 @@ # # Disks should be specified using the following syntax: # +# For use with tapback (vbd3) (preferred): # vdev=xvda,backendtype=tap,format=vhd,target=/srv/target.vhd # -# format is either "aio" (for raw files), or "vhd" +# For use with blkback and the blktap2 kernel module: +# script=block-tap,vdev=xvda,target=<type>:<file> +# +# format/<type> is either "aio" (for raw files), or "vhd" dir=$(dirname "$0") .
