Subject: [RFC 0/2] target: userspace pass-through backend
Date: Tue,  1 Jul 2014 12:11:13 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1404241875-29164-1-git-send-email-agrover@redhat.com> (raw)

Shaohua Li wrote an initial implementation of this, late last year[1].
Starting from that, I started working on some alternate implementation
choices, and ended up with something rather different.

Please take a look and let me know what you think. Patch 1 is a
design and overview doc, and patch 2 is the actual code, along with
implementation rationale.

Thanks -- Andy
