- Summary
- Linux supports a special block device called the loop device, which
maps a normal file onto a virtual block device. This allows for the
file to be used as a "virtual file system" inside another file.
Losetup is used to associate loop devices with regular files or block
devices, to detach loop devices and to query the status of a loop
device.

- Add patch140 (alldevs) to fix #101772. Printing the total size of
all devices was deemed a lower priority than having all devices
(e.g. /dev/ida/c0d9) displayed.
