https://github.com/xcllnt/libvdsk

Sources contain libdisk, bhyve and bhyveload.
bhyve is up-to-date with -current and it=E2=80=99s functional for raw =
disks.
You can therefore build and install this version of bhyve and have
it use libvdsk already.

When working on libvdsk, please make sure raw disks are not broken,
as it=E2=80=99s our baseline.

For example: if you use a QCOW disk (once you have enough support)
and you get a kernel panic, boot the same kernel from a raw disk to
see if it=E2=80=99s the kernel or the QCOW disk.

Have fun!
