#TFW you think you'll just update the kernel driver to support some feature because the kernel maintainer doesn't write it and it turns out he did write it and pushed patches for your code to a repository that you pulled from but he did it about a month *after* you pulled, and all that was SEVEN YEARS AGO and you just find out today.
all this to say that the NBD userland utilities will soon have:
- nbd-get-status: find out whether a device (or all known devices) is/are connected
- working -persist again (yay!)
- optional destroy-on-disconnect for the nbd device
and of course, because nothing is ever easy, I now have to forward-port code across 7 years of unrelated changes, and I may have to rethink bits a bit. Ah well, we'll get there.
Maybe it's finally time to update the negotiate() function to be cleaner.
