[Libguestfs] [nbdkit PATCH 04/10] plugins: Wire up in-memory plugin support for NBD_INFO_INIT_STATE
Eric Blake

Mon Feb 10 21:43:57 UTC 2020
The NBD protocol is adding an extension to let servers advertise
initialization state to the client: whether the image contains holes,
and whether it is known to read as all zeroes. For memory-based
plugins, it is fairly easy to advertise several cases: data and memory
are usually sparse and detecting zero is easy (requires new functions
to the sparse_array common code), although since the sparse array is
reused between consecutive clients, a later client might get different
answers than the first client. The null and full plugins are
obviously zero. The zero plugin doesn't return any data, so it
doesn't need changes. The info plugin is never sparse, but can be all
zeroes in base64exportname mode.
Adding initial state support to file-based and language binding
plugins will be done separately.
Testing of this addition relies on a contemporary patch to libnbd
adding a new nbd_get_init_flags() function for reading the advertised
initial state, then demonstrating changes in state observable from the
memory plugin over successive clients.
