Writes to the virtual block device are not immediately written to the

Linux 'Virtual Machine' uses a journalling filesystem and the host

computer crashes.
|

Synchronous operation (i.e. always writing data to the host's disk

kernel command line option. Alternatively, you can say Y here to

If you're running a journalling file system (like reiserfs, for

tristate "Loopback device support"

---help---

Saying Y here will allow you to use a regular file as a block
|
|
device; you can then create a file system on that block device and
|
|
mount it just as you would mount other block devices such as hard
|
|
drive partitions, CD-ROM drives or floppy drives. The loop devices
|
|
are block special device files with major number 7 and typically
|
|
called /dev/loop0, /dev/loop1 etc.
|
|
|
|
This is useful if you want to check an ISO 9660 file system before
|
|
burning the CD, or if you want to use floppy images without first
|
|
writing them to floppy. Furthermore, some Linux distributions avoid
|
|
the need for a dedicated Linux partition by keeping their complete
|
|
root file system inside a DOS FAT file using this loop device
|
|
driver.
|
|
|
|
To use the loop device, you need the losetup utility, found in the
|
|
util-linux package, see
|
|
<ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux/>.
|
|
|
|
The loop device driver can also be used to "hide" a file system in
|
|
a disk partition, floppy, or regular file, either using encryption
|
|
(scrambling the data) or steganography (hiding the data in the low
|
|
bits of, say, a sound file). This is also safe if the file resides
|
|
on a remote file server.
|
|
|
|
There are several ways of encrypting disks. Some of these require
|
|
kernel patches. The vanilla kernel offers the cryptoloop option
|
|
and a Device Mapper target (which is superior, as it supports all
|
|
file systems). If you want to use the cryptoloop, say Y to both
|
|
LOOP and CRYPTOLOOP, and make sure you have a recent (version 2.12
|
|
or later) version of util-linux. Additionally, be aware that
|
|
the cryptoloop is not safe for storing journaled filesystems.
|
|
|
|
Note that this loop device has nothing to do with the loopback
|
|
device used for network connections from the machine to itself.

program this is hidden: it looks like a regular local file access to
