Hello,

I've been trying to understand a bit more about how FreeBSD handles xvd (xbd)
disks due to Bug 269023. I was wondering why does xbd blocks attach as ada
devices rather than just act as xbd devices directly.


dmesg snipit:
xbd0: 16384MB <Virtual Block Device> at device/vbd/768 on xenbusb_front0
xbd0: attaching as ada0
xbd0: features: write_barrier
xbd0: synchronize cache commands enabled.


Thanks,
Echo Nar
