[PATCH nbdkit v5 FINAL 00/19] Implement extents.
This has already been pushed upstream. I am simply posting these here so we have a reference in the mailing list in case we find bugs later (as I'm sure we will - it's a complex patch series). Great thanks to Eric Blake for tireless review on this one. It also seems to have identified a few minor bugs in qemu along the way. Rich.

[PATCH nbdkit v4 00/15] Implement Block Status.
I'm not sure exactly which version we're up to, but let's say it's version 4. I'm a lot happier with this version: - all filters have been reviewed and changed where I think that's necessary - can_extents is properly defined and implemented now - NBD protocol is followed - I believe it addresses all previous review points where possible The "only" thing

[PATCH nbdkit 0/8] Implement extents using a simpler array.
Not sure what version we're up to, but this reimplements extents using the new simpler structure described in this thread: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2019-March/msg00077.html I also fixed most of the things that Eric pointed out in the previous review, although I need to go back over his replies and check I've got everything. This needs a bit more testing. However the

[nbdkit PATCH v2 0/2] Bounce buffer cleanups
Based on Rich's review of my v1 that touched only cache.c, I have now tried to bring all three filters with alignment rounding in line with one another. There is definitely room for future improvements once we teach nbdkit to let filters and plugins advertise block sizes, but I'm hoping to get NBD_CMD_CACHE implemented first.

[nbdkit PATCH] offset, partition: Fix .extents with non-zero offset
When querying the extents of the underlying plugin, we should only translate the starting offset, and let the plugin report for at least as many bytes as our range permits. Otherwise, short-changing the range causes bad behavior such as returning 0 extents, or even failing the creation of an extents tracker: $ cat script case "$1" in get_size) echo 1m;; can_extents) ;;

[RFC nbdkit PATCH 0/3] aligned .extents
Ultimately, both the blocksize and swab filters want to return aligned extents to the client. I'm posting this as a snapshot of my work in progress on how I plan to get there (it's not quite working yet, but I'm done for today and wanted to at least document my ideas). I might also add a convenience function for nbdkit_extents_offset, since we have a number of filters that repeat the

[PATCH nbdkit 2/2] filters: Be careful to set *err if nbdkit_add_extent or nbdkit_extents_new fail.
This fix isn't exhaustive but it fixes some obvious problems in the filters. Rich.

[nbdkit PATCH v3 00/15] Add FUA support to nbdkit
After more than a month since v2 [1], I've finally got my FUA support series polished. This is all of my outstanding patches, even though some of them were originally posted in separate threads from the original FUA post [2], [3] [1] https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2018-January/msg00113.html [2] https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2018-January/msg00219.html [3]

[nbdkit PATCH v2 0/3] add log, blocksize filters
Since v1: add the blocksize filter, add testsuite coverage of the log filter, several fixes to the log filter based on what adding tests revealed I'm still working on FUA flag support patches on top of this; the patches should all be committed in the same release, as we want to minimize the number of releases that cause a filter ABI/API bump Eric Blake (3): backend: Rework internal/filter

[nbdkit PATCH 0/2] RFC: tweak error handling, add log filter

[PATCH nbdkit filters-v2 0/5] Introduce filters.
Rebased filters patch. Requires current git master + the locks / thread model fix (https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2018-January/msg00128.html) So a few changes here since last time: The "introduce filters" and "implement filters" patches are squashed together. I introduced a concept of .prepare and .finalize. These run before and after the data serving phase

[nbdkit PATCH v2 0/6] Improve retry filter
Includes a rework of the previously posted patch for --run improvements (mostly with improved comments and commit message; I decided that waiting for the captive nbdkit to exit was overkill), and four new patches. The tests are intentionally separate, to allow rearranging the order of the series to see the failures being fixed. Eric Blake (6): server: Propagate unexpected nbdkit failure with

[nbdkit PATCH 0/4] Fix truncate handling of real_size
While working on adding assertions to pthread_mutex_lock calls, I noticed that the truncate filter's use of mutex didn't really protect us, and isn't really necessary. Cleaning that up also spotted a couple of other potential cleanups.

[PATCH nbdkit v2 0/3] Rewrite xz plugin as a filter.
v2: - Fixes a number of bugs in corner cases. - Uses a 1M block size to fetch from the underlying plugin. This improves performance considerably. I also tested this much more thoroughly and can't find any more bugs. Rich.

[PATCH nbdkit filters-v3 0/7] Introduce filters.
This is still tentative and needs a lot of work, but: - partition filter works, supporting MBR & GPT - prepare and finalize methods fixed - open method can now be changed (allowing readonly flag to be modified) - thread_model can be limited I believe I made most of the changes which were previously suggested in email. I think the only one I didn't was preventing inclusion of both

[nbdkit PATCH 0/4] Start using cleanup macros in filters/plugins
There's more that can be done (in particular, use of CLEANUP_FREE), but this is enough to at least see if I'm on the right track. I couldn't figure out an obvious difference between common/include and common/utils, but it looks like the former is for things that are inlineable via .h only, while the latter is when you need to link in a convenience library, so this landed in the

[PATCH nbdkit 0/2] Rewrite xz plugin as a filter.
Matt asked if xz should really be a filter rather than a plugin. The answer is yes, of course it should be! That's been something in the todo file for a while. The commit converts the xz plugin code into a filter (leaving the plugin around, but deprecating it). plugin: nbdkit xz file.xz filter: nbdkit --filter=xz file file.xz plugin: # can't be done filter: nbdkit

[nbdkit PATCH v2 00/24] implement NBD_CMD_CACHE
Since v1: - rework .can_cache to be tri-state, with default of no advertisement (ripple effect through other patches) - add a lot more patches in order to round out filter support And in the meantime, Rich pushed NBD_CMD_CACHE support into libnbd, so in theory we now have a way to test cache commands through the entire stack.

[PATCH nbdkit 0/4] Add fuamode=pass and fuamode=discard
Two hopefully useful additions to the fua filter. The second one is kind of like cache=unsafe in qemu, in that it exchanges correctness for speed. Useful for data which is easily recreated in the event of a crash or for people who like living on the edge and have good backups. Rich.
