From 3ef536095446552823fc488fec1c5451aab1260d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christian Borntraeger Date: Fri, 16 May 2008 11:17:03 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] virtio_blk: allow read-only disks Hello Rusty, sometimes it is useful to share a disk (e.g. usr). To avoid file system corruption, the disk should be mounted read-only in that case. This patch adds a new feature flag, that allows the host to specify, if the disk should be considered read-only.
