Recently we had a try of stubdom, whose general status is good. One issue we found is with aio/sync blktap as backend, disk performance is obviously slower, and there are some IDE kernel error messages (like irq timeout) at boot time. Another issue (not stubdom specific) comes from blktap''s support for QCOW image which is based on a backing file. We never tried this configure

This patch series copies the core of the tapdisk process from blktap2, with updates coming from blktap2.5. Signed-off-by: Thanos Makatos <thanos.makatos@citrix.com>
