+### Virtio Block driver
+
+A userspace driver for Virtio Block devices has been added. It was built on top of the
+[Virtio](http://www.spdk.io/doc/virtio.html) library and can be managed similarly to
+the Virtio SCSI driver. See the
+[Virtio Block](http://www.spdk.io/doc/bdev.html#bdev_config_virtio_blk) reference for

+The Virtio-Block driver can expose an SPDK bdev from a Virtio-Block device.

+Virtio-Block bdevs are constructed the same way as Virtio-SCSI ones.

+Since they export only a single bdev, the Virtio-Block driver doesn't offer additional
+remove/destruct RPC calls. @ref bdev_ug_delete_bdev should be used instead.
