I've formalized this now, and removed the PEEK_EXPORT extension (which, as you say, can't be used safely). > The negotation would then look something like: > > NBD_OPT_SELECT_EXPORT > <- NBD_REP_ACK This has become an NBD_REP_SERVER instead, with (64-bit) export size and (16-bit) per-export flags appended (rather than yet another flags field). (the name is also NBD_OPT_SELECT rather than NBD_OPT_SELECT_EXPORT; details) NBD_OPT_SELECT is 6, NBD_OPT_GO is 7, NBD_REP_ERR_UNKNOWN is 2^31+6. For more details, see the proto.md document.
