Necessary when writing a client that wants to avoid unnecessary EINVAL errors from sending unaligned requests. At some point, we may want to add synchronous convenience API wrappers that do request splitting or read-modify-write to obey server constraints while still appearing to the library client as accepting any possible request. But such a wrapper should only be synchronous and not copied to

Based on Laszlo's approval of my idea here: https://listman.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2023-September/032661.html but as I would like to resync human-size.h back to nbdkit, I'm reluctant to apply patch 1 this until I get Rich's consent to relicensing (this email serves as my consent for my contribution here): https://listman.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2023-October/032755.html

In v2: ack'ed preliminary patches have been pushed, and I've added a lot of testsuite coverage as well as putting the new API to use in nbdinfo. Eric Blake (2): api: Add nbd_opt_list_meta_context info: List available meta-contexts lib/internal.h | 1 + generator/API.ml | 84 ++++++++-

This adds coalescing of adjacent extents of the same type, as mentioned by Eric Blake in the commit message here: https://github.com/libguestfs/libnbd/commit/46072f6611f80245846a445766da071e457b00cd The patch series is rather long because it detours through adding the <vector.h> library from nbdkit into libnbd and replacing ad hoc uses of realloc, char ** etc in various places. Rich.

Well, I'm not quite done (I still want to get nbdinfo to work on a single nbd connection for all cases when reading the heads of the file is not required), but I'm happy with patches 1-11, and 12-13 show where I'm headed for getting NBD_OPT_INFO to work. Posting now to see if some of the earlier patches are ready to commit while I continue working on the latter half. Eric Blake (13):
