Hello, Thanks for the reply. I have few questions.
>From what I read, I understand that we need virtioSCSI drivers for DragonflyBSD. The virtioNet driver also has some bugs which need to be resolved. Is there anything else to be done on the virtio front? I am looking at the use case of the virtioSCSI driver and learning about the SCSI specification. I want to find out whether this will be a useful support for DragonflyBSD, and will be accepted as a project for GSoC. Please help me here. Since I am new to the DragonflyBSD kernel, I will take some time to clearly understand the driver framework. My experience on Linux is going to help me here. I want to find out the level of detail in design that is expected from the student as a part of the project proposal.
