no longer working for some time. A driver that had been marked as BROKEN for such a long time seems to be unlikely to be revived in the forseeable future. But if anyone wants to ever revive this driver, the code is still present in the older kernel releases.

The User-Mode Linux port includes a driver called UBD which will let

Y here.

---help---
|
|
Writes to the virtual block device are not immediately written to the
|
|
host's disk; this may cause problems if, for example, the User-Mode
|
|
Linux 'Virtual Machine' uses a journalling filesystem and the host
|
|
computer crashes.
|
|
|
|
Synchronous operation (i.e. always writing data to the host's disk
|
|
immediately) is configurable on a per-UBD basis by using a special
|
|
kernel command line option. Alternatively, you can say Y here to
|
|
turn on synchronous operation by default for all block devices.
|
|
|
|
If you're running a journalling file system (like reiserfs, for
|
|
example) in your virtual machine, you will want to say Y here. If
|
|
you care for the safety of the data in your virtual machine, Y is a

wise choice too. In all other cases (for example, if you're just

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.
|

|

To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
|
|
module will be called loop.

Saying Y here will allow your computer to be a client for network

block devices, i.e. it will be able to use block devices exported by
|
|
servers (mount file systems on them etc.). Communication between
|
|
client and server works over TCP/IP networking, but to the client
|
|
program this is hidden: it looks like a regular local file access to

a block device special file such as /dev/nd0.
|
|
|

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

userland (making server and client physically the same computer,
