This was v3 patch 2/22, reworked to address the confusion about how a structured reply header is read in two pieces before getting to the payload portion. I'm still working on rebasing the rest of my v3 series (patches 1, 3-22) from other comments given, but this seemed independent enough that it's worth posting now rather than holding it up for the rest of the series. Eric Blake (4):

Eventually nbdkit will install this as a public header file and we will be able to consume it from $includedir. In the mean time synchronize with the copy in nbdkit. --- lib/nbd-protocol.h | 57 +++++++++++++++++++++++----------------------- 1 file changed, 28 insertions(+), 29 deletions(-) diff --git a/lib/nbd-protocol.h b/lib/nbd-protocol.h index 699aa22..7df411a 100644 ---

We should have only one NBD protocol file. Let's make nbdkit's version the canonical one, and use it in libnbd. Rich.

Since v2: - rebase to Rich's new API calls - more refactoring in patch 1 (retitled) - new patches 3 and 4 - fix data corruption in patch 6 (was 4) - more tweaks to the reproducer example (including using new API from 3) Eric Blake (7): lib: Refactor command_common() to do more common work commands: Allow for a command queue commands: Expose FIFO ordering of server completions

When we first used libnbd (nbdkit 1.14), it was brand new, so we left in the ability to build a limited nbd plugin without the use of libnbd for comparison. But now that libnbd has had more time under its belt, and we have learned that our nbd-standalone code is not getting much testing, it's time to follow through with our plan to finish off the old code, and now build the nbd plugin only

Since commit 86fdb48c6a5362d66865493d9d2172166f99722e we have stored the connection object in thread-local storage. In this very large, but mostly mechanical change we stop passing the connection pointer around everywhere, and instead use the value stored in thread-local storage. This assumes a 1-1 mapping between the connection and the current thread which is true in *most* places.

v1 was here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2020-February/msg00081.html v2 replaces struct connection *conn = GET_CONN; with GET_CONN; which sets conn implicitly and asserts that it is non-NULL. If we actually want to test if conn is non-NULL or behave differently, then you must use threadlocal_get_conn() instead, and some existing uses do that. Rich.

The third patch is a large but mechanical change which gets rid of passing around struct connection * entirely within the server, preferring instead to reference the connection through thread-local storage. I hope this is a gateway to simplifying other parts of the code. Rich.
