[Xen-devel] [PATCH v2 1/2] tools: remove blktap2 related code and documentation

2016-08-26 Thread Wei Liu
Blktap2 is effectively dead code for a few years. Notable changes in this patch: 0. Unhook blktap2 from build system 1. Now libxl no longer supports TAP disk backend, appropriate assertions are added and some code paths now return ERROR_FAIL 2. Tap is no longer a supported backend in doc 3.
