For one thing, I'm not happy with its bugginess, and haven't sent it to Linus yet (I was about to, then ran a workload which exposed a bunch of problems). For another, the host filesystem has to be prepared, by separating the file permissions from the files, and changing the ownerships and permissions of the files. Is there a reason the data has to live on the host? If it's accessed most often by the UML, how about having it live inside the UML and export it to the host with NFS is necessary?
