It won't work well unless running on a block device (partition or LVM).
What does "work well" mean in this context? Potential dataloss?
No, it becomes synchronous (=extra slow).
But for this to happen, the user would have had to consciously enter
into the situation by creating/using a non block device,
non-pre-allocated backing disk AND specify the aio=native option,
correct?


I thought there was some autodetection involved, but perhaps I just imagined it.
