Hi Kevin,
I feel this patch that has nothing to do with ocssd also touches upon
the core issue we are discussing in the ocssd thread.
As I understand it, QEMU does not support metadata pr LBA in the block
layer. Thus, the approach in this patch is also flawed because it breaks
the assumptions of other devices?
The approach suggested in this patch is to split the image into a large
data part and a trailing part for storing metadata bytes per data
sector.
[ data ][ meta ]
How about I drop this patch and the ocssd patch from this series and
just move forward with the other changes to the nvme device (i.e. v1.3
and sgls) for now and we can continue the discussion on how to get
metadata and ocssd support merged in another thread?
