Greetings from an ancient thread (but the most recent on to
openstack-dev about localfs that I can find).
In 2014, which were heady times, we decided that we couldn't deprecate
nova.virt.disk.vfs.localfs because we theorised that FreeBSD and
containers would soon need it. Oh, and xenapi uses it a little too.
It is now three years later, and there has been some recent thought
given to deprecating localfs again, which I bumped into when I chose
this code as the first candidate for a prototype privsep user inside the
nova codebase [1].
I think we therefore need to have this conversation again. Do we still
have any clear use cases for localfs? Where does guestfs not run at the
moment? Or did I waste my time privsep'ing localfs?
Thanks,
Michael

We agreed at the Pike PTG to drop the VFSLocalFS driver. See the recap
notes from the PTG:

I think it's just a matter of cleaning this up:
