I'd really like to see qemu-io gain access to calling this command, so that we can add iotests coverage of this new feature. Note that the in-development libnbd (https://github.com/libguestfs/libnbd/commits/master) is also usable as an NBD client that can drive NBD_CMD_CACHE, although it's still new enough that we probably don't want to rely on it being available yet. -- Eric Blake, Principal Software Engineer Red Hat, Inc. +1-919-301-3226 Virtualization: qemu.org | libvirt.org
