By simply re-attaching to shared rings during connect_ring() rather than assuming they are freshly allocated (i.e assuming the counters are zero) it is possible for vbd instances to be unbound and re-bound from and to (respectively) a running guest. This has been tested by running: while true; do fio --name=randwrite --ioengine=libaio --iodepth=16 \ --rw=randwrite --bs=4k --direct=1 --size=1G --verify=crc32; done in a PV guest whilst running: while true; do echo vbd-$DOMID-$VBD >unbind; echo unbound; sleep 5; echo vbd-$DOMID-$VBD >bind; echo bound; sleep 3; done in dom0 from /sys/bus/xen-backend/drivers/vbd to continuously unbind and re-bind its system disk image. This is a highly useful feature for a backend module as it allows it to be unloaded and re-loaded (i.e. updated) without requiring domUs to be halted. This was also tested by running: while true; do echo vbd-$DOMID-$VBD >unbind; echo unbound; sleep 5; rmmod xen-blkback; echo unloaded; sleep 1; modprobe xen-blkback; echo bound; cd $(pwd); sleep 3; done in dom0 whilst running the same loop as above in the (single) PV guest. Some (less stressful) testing has also been done using a Windows HVM guest with the latest 9.0 PV drivers installed.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
