pvscsi driver support (frontend/backend)
- Contact: port-xen
Abstract: This project involves allowing SCSI devices on the dom0 to be passed through to the domU. Individual SCSI devices can be passed through dynamically. The domU needs to have a "frontend" driver that can communicate with the backend driver which runs on the dom0 and takes care of arbitrating and sometimes duplicating the requests.
Deliverables:
- Functioning backend and frontend drivers for dom0 and domU respectively.
- Make available high performance SCSI device to PV and PVHVM domains.
