Hi Omar,
here's a late topic for the I/O Track: Block namespaces
We already proposed it for the (canceled) LSF last year, and now I found
that Christian Brauner is actually present here at LSF.
What this is about: Similarly to network namespaces we'd like to explore
the possibility of block namespaces.
Canonical use-case here is iscsi sessions within containers: if one
container starts up an iscsi session, why should this session be visible
to the other containers?
The discussion should be about general design and possible use-cases.
Cheers,
Hannes
