      Block driver using virtio. · e467cde2
      Rusty Russell 提交于
      The block driver uses scatter-gather lists with sg[0] being the
      request information (struct virtio_blk_outhdr) with the type, sector
      and inbuf id.  The next N sg entries are the bio itself, then the last
      sg is the status byte.  Whether the N entries are in or out depends on
      whether it's a read or a write.
      
      We accept the normal (SCSI) ioctls: they get handed through to the other
      side which can then handle it or reply that it's unsupported.  It's
      not clear that this actually works in general, since I don't know
      if blk_pc_request() requests have an accurate rq_data_dir().
      
      Although we try to reply -ENOTTY on unsupported commands, ioctl(fd,
      CDROMEJECT) returns success to userspace.  This needs a separate
      patch.
