+Subject: [PATCH] Trace reads and writes to qemu block devices.
+
+NB: This patch is not suitable for nor intended to go upstream in
+its current form.
+
+When qemu opens a block device, this patch creates a trace file
+in /tmp with a name related to the block device.  Reads and writes
+to the device cause lines to be written to the trace file:
+
+  S <total_sectors>
+  W <sector> <nb_sectors>
+  R <sector> <nb_sectors>
+
+'S' is the summary line, printed first which just tells you how
+many sectors are on the device.
+
+'W' and 'R' are writes and reads, for the range <sector> through
+to <sector> + <nb_sectors> - 1.
