Ah, but block devices can play too. With dm-userspace, we could
migrate a domain from one machine to another, faulting the needed
blocks from its block devices on-demand, and copying the rest in the
background. This would give us a peer-to-peer setup where block
devices could slowly move from machine to machine, following its
owner. Once your block was accessed (or copied in the background),
it's local and fast. A peer-to-peer NAS setup.
What do you think?
