Hi,
There's been quite a bit of discussion about where virtiofsd, our
implemenation of a virtiofs daemon, should live. I'd like to get
this settled now, because I'd like to tidy it up for the next
qemu cycle.
For reference it's based on qemu's livhost-user+chunks of libfuse.
It can't live in libfuse because we change enough of the library
to break their ABI. It's C, and we've got ~100 patches - which
we can split into about 3 chunks.
Some suggestions so far:
a) In contrib
This is my current working assumption; the main objection is it's
a bit big and pulls in a chunk of libfuse.
b) In a submodule
c) Just separate
Your suggestions/ideas please. My preference is (a).
Dave
