Tapdisk control in userspace, a replacement for the original blktap2 control stack, which had to pass a kernel space interface based on sysfs nodes. All tapdisk processes listen for commands on a unix stream socket. The control library supports scanning the socket namespace for running tapdisks, VBD minors allocated, associated images and state inquiry. Control operations include allocating/releasing devices, spawning tapdisks, opening/closing images, attaching disk images to devices. disk pause/resume operations and runtime switching of disk images.
