Allocate memory for read-gathering at open time, when it is known just how much memory is needed. This avoids wasting kernel memory when the real packet size is smaller than the maximum packet size supported by the driver. This is always the case when using DVD discs.

Writes to the virtual block device are not immediately written to the

Linux 'Virtual Machine' uses a journalling filesystem and the host

computer crashes.
|

Synchronous operation (i.e. always writing data to the host's disk

kernel command line option. Alternatively, you can say Y here to

tristate "Loopback device support"

---help---

Saying Y here will allow you to use a regular file as a block
|
|
device; you can then create a file system on that block device and
|
|
mount it just as you would mount other block devices such as hard
|
|
drive partitions, CD-ROM drives or floppy drives. The loop devices
|
|
are block special device files with major number 7 and typically
|
|
called /dev/loop0, /dev/loop1 etc.
|
|
|
|
This is useful if you want to check an ISO 9660 file system before
|
|
burning the CD, or if you want to use floppy images without first
|
|
writing them to floppy. Furthermore, some Linux distributions avoid
|
|
the need for a dedicated Linux partition by keeping their complete
|
|
root file system inside a DOS FAT file using this loop device
|
|
driver.
|
|
|
|
To use the loop device, you need the losetup utility, found in the
|
|
util-linux package, see
|
|
<ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux/>.
|
|
|
|
The loop device driver can also be used to "hide" a file system in
|
|
a disk partition, floppy, or regular file, either using encryption
|
|
(scrambling the data) or steganography (hiding the data in the low
|
|
bits of, say, a sound file). This is also safe if the file resides
|
|
on a remote file server.
|
|
|
|
There are several ways of encrypting disks. Some of these require
|
|
kernel patches. The vanilla kernel offers the cryptoloop option
|
|
and a Device Mapper target (which is superior, as it supports all
|
|
file systems). If you want to use the cryptoloop, say Y to both
|
|
LOOP and CRYPTOLOOP, and make sure you have a recent (version 2.12
|
|
or later) version of util-linux. Additionally, be aware that
|
|
the cryptoloop is not safe for storing journaled filesystems.
|
|
|
|
Note that this loop device has nothing to do with the loopback
|
|
device used for network connections from the machine to itself.

program this is hidden: it looks like a regular local file access to

Network block devices also allows you to run a block-device in
