Description
- Let's discuss the state of zoned storage in QEMU and any questions
about using zoned storage in QEMU. - Zoned block devices on Linux can now be exposed to VMs via SCSI ZBC
and virtio-blk emulation. - SCSI devices can also be passed through (scsi-generic) and physical
PCI adapters can be assigned to VMs if you don't want QEMU emulation
involved. - There is work in progress to support NVMe ZNS, which currently only
offers volatile zone state and is not suitable for running production
VMs yet. - There is also work in progress to support emulating zones inside
qcow2 files for testing and bring-up.
