I'm looking for something like FUSE but for block devices.
I mean the possibility to write a block device driver in userspace. For example
my own virtual disk device, or my own randomizer device.
Is there already an existing solution for this?
Not that I'm aware of.
The only think even any where near close is lofi(7D) but that is in
kernel space. It is "virtual" disk in the sense that turns a file into
a block device. See also vdiskadm(1M).
What problem are you trying to solve by implementing in userspace rather
than kernel space ?
