...l wait for a review on these. Now, for the future compatibility lesson, promised above. nbd_get_handshake_flags is documented as potentially returning additional bits from a newer libnbd than what the current client code was compiled against. How? Let's say a future NBD protocol addition adds LIBNBD_HANDSHAKE_FLAG_64BIT (as that one might actually be a way that we implement 64-bit requests...). Presumably, once the NBD protocol defines it and future libnbd implements it, then future libnbd will default to setting that bit during nbd_create(). An older C client that did: flags = nbd_get_handshake_flags (nbd) &am...
