Same here.  I noticed kvm-stub to be a good example.

Yes, exactly.  I noticed that a little while ago.  Thanks for
making it clear.

Michael's stubs (probably in qemu-tool.c) seem to be the right solution.

Which requests do you actually want to intercept? I assume you're aware
that for example qcow2 internally calls another bdrv_aio_readv/writev
that accesses the image file.

So if you only want to have the requests that come directly from
devices, maybe you'll have to restrict it to BlockDriverStates that
belongs to a drive. I think this is the case if it has a non-empty
device name.

Add stubs same as we have for other functions.

Same as I replied to the net layer question.  However, I had
troubles with inserting event-tap functions into block.c before.
block.c gets linked with utils like qemu-img, but they don't get
linked with emulators code which event-tap uses in it.  So I want
to avoid linking block and event-tap for utils, but I guess we
don't want to use ifdefs for this.  I'm wondering how I can solve
this problem cleanly.

Kevin, do you have suggestions here?

Same comment as -net here: it's not clear when should
a device use bdrv_aio_writev_proxy and when bdrv_aio_writev.
If all devices should just use _proxy, let's
just make bdrv_aio_writev DTRT instead.
