  Description     : bdsync is a fast block device synchronizing tool

 Bdsync can be used to synchronize block devices over a network. It
 generates a "binary diff" in an efficient  way  by  comparing  MD5
 checksums  of  32k blocks of the local block device LOCDEV and the
 remote block device REMDEV.

 This binary diff can be sent to the remote machine and applied  to
 its block device DSTDEV, after which the local blockdev LOCDEV and
 the remote block device REMDEV are synchronized.

 bdsync was built to do the only thing rsync isn't able to do: syn‐
 chronize block devices.
