Hi,
Is there any APIs or some XML scheme can passthru a local block device
of the host, eg, /dev/sda1 to its running guest OS?
Specifically, say there is a block device /dev/sda1 in the host, mount
it: mount /dev/sda1 /mnt; ls /mnt:
a.file, b.file
After passthru, the same /dev/sda1 can be used by the quest os(maybe the
dev name is changed): mount /dev/sda1 /mnt; ls /mnt:
a.file, b.file.
BRs,
Dennis
