Hi Vitaly, Thank you for the patch! Yet something to improve: [auto build test ERROR on vhost/linux-next] [also build test ERROR on v4.19 next-20181102] [if your patch is applied to the wrong git tree, please drop us a note to help improve the system] url: https://github.com/0day-ci/linux/commits/Vitaly-Mayatskikh/vhost-add-vhost_blk-driver/20181103-084141 base:

vhost-blk is an in-kernel virito-blk device accelerator. Due to lack of proper in-kernel AIO interface, this version converts guest's I/O request to bio and use submit_bio() to submit I/O directly. So this version any supports raw block device as guest's disk image, e.g. /dev/sda, /dev/ram0. We can add file based image support to vhost-blk once we have in-kernel AIO interface. There are

For virtualization, we've developed virtio_ring for efficient communication. This would also work well for userspace-kernel communication, particularly for things like the tun device. By using the same ABI, we can join guests to the host kernel trivially. These patches are fairly alpha; I've seen some network stalls I have to track down and there are some fixmes. Comments welcome!
