Block layer is prepared to unspecialize dataplane, an evidence is this almost complete list of unblocked operations. It has all types except two (actually three if DATAPLANE itself counts but blockdev.c makes sure attaching twice is not possible): MIRROR_TARGET and BACKUP_TARGET. blockdev-mirror refuses to start if target is attached, so the first is not a problem. By removing BACKUP_TARGET, blockdev-backup will become permissive to write to a virtio-blk dataplane disk, but that is not worse than non-dataplane given the latter is already possible. In either case, blockdev.c always checks the target and source are on the same AioContext, or bring them together if possible. Signed-off-by: Fam Zheng <famz@redhat.com> Acked-by: Michael S.
