Hi, a really really long time ago (think 2011), we added support in Nova for configuring the mkfs commands that are run for new ephemeral disks using the virt_mkfs command. The current implementation is in nova/virt/disk/api.py for your reading pleasure.
I'm battling a little with how to move this code to privsep, because I have resisted providing any method which just takes a command line and runs it with escalated permissions, as I feel this defeats the purpose of privsep. I could just pickup all the command line parsing code and move it into privsep, but I am left wondering if anyone actually uses this functionality, or if we should just deprecate it all? I'd appreciate your thoughts. Michael
