[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] nbd/server: introduce NBD_CMD_CACHE
Posted by Vladimir Sementsov-Ogievskiy 5 years, 11 months ago
Handle nbd CACHE command. Just do read, without sending read data back.
Cache mechanism should be done by exported node driver chain.

Hmm, this flag is not documented in the upstream NBD protocol yet; are
we sure it matches the xNBD implementation?  We'll want at least a
documentation patch proposed for the NBD list before taking this.

Indeed, and that made me realize that we may want to add NBD_CMD_FLAG_*
values corresponding to other useful posix_fadvise() modes before
finalizing the NBD protocol addition of this feature, in which case we'd
want to make sure the qemu implementation is in line with that.

Still waiting on the NBD spec review, which I've pinged on the NBD list. 
But as mentioned there, I'll probably go ahead and accept this (possibly 
with slight tweaks) on Monday, after giving one more weekend for any 
last-minute review comments.

I'm not sure I agree with this one. Since we aren't passing the cached 
data over the wire, we can reject the command with EINVAL instead of 
killing the connection entirely.

(As it is, I wonder if we can be nicer about rejecting a read request > 
32M. For a write request, we have to disconnect; but for a read request, 
we can keep the connection alive by just returning EINVAL for a 
too-large read, instead of our current behavior of disconnecting)
