[Qemu-block] [PATCH v2 0/7] various NBD fixes for 2.11


From: Eric Blake
Subject: [Qemu-block] [PATCH v2 0/7] various NBD fixes for 2.11
Date: Wed, 8 Nov 2017 15:56:56 -0600

Sparked by my question on whether we were handling zero-length
reads correctly according to the NBD spec, but grew to fix
other things as well such as some typos, tracing weaknesses,
and better handling of read-only exports.

The order these patches are listed here is bisection-friendly,
but applying the patches out of order is necessary to catch
some of the bad behavior being fixed.

As evidenced by the iotest 147 change, this WILL flag existing
clients with dodgy usage when connecting to a read-only server
(such as the default for nbd-server-add).  But on the bright side,
when libvirt drives storage migration via NBD, it is properly
setting up a read-write server with nbd-server-add.

Since v1 (https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2017-11/msg00955.html):
- Tweak several commit messages now that NBD spec changes landed
- merge old 3/8 and 4/8 into single 2/7 that blocks read-write
connection to read-only export rather than magically downgrading it [Kevin]
