The QEMU system emulator now supports the virtio-scsi SCSI transport for efficient virtualized SCSI I/O. I would like to support virtio-scsi debugging and analysis with pcap.
The pcap data will include the virtio buffers containing SCSI command metadata, CDB, and data-out buffer. A similar structure is also used for SCSI responses with the data-in buffer and a footer. You can find detailed information on virtio-scsi in Appendix H of the virtio specification: http://ozlabs.org/~rusty/virtio-spec/virtio-0.9.4.pdf Is it possible to allocate a datalink type for virtio-scsi? Do you need a detailed specification of the virtio-scsi pcap mapping or should we publish the specification ourselves to enable others to easily read such files?
