[Libguestfs] [PATCH nbdkit] New plugin: blkio [incomplete]

[Richard W.M. Jones]

This is upstream in nbdkit now:
https://gitlab.com/nbdkit/nbdkit/-/tree/master/plugins/blkio

Another question:

(6) vhost-user + "read-only" property acts a bit strangely.  After
opening virtio-blk-vhost-user it throws an EROFS error if you try to
"blkio_start" it.  However if you set the "read-only" property to true
then it's OK to start it, and subsequent read operations work too.

I would expect that any device can be started without needing to set
this property, and in general I don't understand why vhost-user is r/o
since everything I read about it seems to indicate it's a general
purpose writable protocol.

Rich.
