|
|
.Nd Hyper-V Storage Virtual Service Consumer
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in
|
|
the system kernel configuration file:
|
|
.Bd -ragged -offset indent
|
|
.Cd "device hyperv"
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver implements the virtual store device for
|
|
.Fx
|
|
guest
|
|
partitions running on Hyper-V.
|
|
.Fx
|
|
guest partitions running on Hyper-V do not have direct access to
|
|
storage devices attached to the Hyper-V server.
|
|
Although a
|
|
.Fx
|
|
guest can access storage devices using Hyper-V's
|
|
full emulation mode, the performance in this mode tends to be unsatisfactory.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
To counter the above issues, the
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver implements a storage
|
|
Virtual
|
|
Service Consumer (VSC) that relays storage requests from the guest partition
|
|
to the storage Virtual Service Provider (VSP) hosted in the root partition
|
|
using the high performance data exchange infrastructure provided by
|
|
.Xr hv_vmbus 4
|
|
driver.
|
|
The VSP in the root partition then forwards the storage related requests to
|
|
the physical storage device.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
This driver functions by presenting a SCSI HBA interface to the Comman Access
|
|
Method (CAM) layer.
|
|
CAM control blocks (CCBs) are
|
|
converted into VSCSI protocol messages which are delivered to the root
|
|
partition VSP over the Hyper-V VMBus.
