Subject: [RFC PATCH 3/7] Implement diskseq checks in blkback
From: Demi Marie Obenour <demiobenour@...il.com>
This allows specifying a disk sequence number in XenStore. If it does
not match the disk sequence number of the underlying device, the device
will not be exported and a warning will be logged. Userspace can use
this to eliminate race conditions due to major/minor number reuse.
Older kernels will ignore this, so it is safe for userspace to set it
unconditionally.
This also makes physical-device parsing stricter. I do not believe this
will break any extant userspace tools.
