However 6 is probably too low - in nbdcopy we use 64.
I kept it low just to verify the system works in the way I intended it to.
So you can
open multiple TCP connections on each side and issue multiple
commands in flight on each of those connections.
I will look into this, so we open multiple sockets hence get multiple
socket_fds which we can read from and write to?
The code looks very minimal at the moment. I'm not very familiar
with
the fmt:: class.
It's just for formatting and output like printf.
Does it successfully make a handshake to ‘nbdkit -o’
yet?
I read in the protocol document
https://github.com/NetworkBlockDevice/nbd/blob/master/doc/proto.md#oldsty...
that handshake is just about the server sending data to the client on
accept,
I open a socket and connect then read the handshake, and with the data,
then populate NbdConnection variables. All this is done currently in the
constructor of NbdConnection synchronously. So I guess the answer
is yes.
Current data I receive after handshake from source and destination ports
Copying from port 1234 to port 2345.

I notice that although you create an io_uring you're not using
it.
But I guess that's still to come.
I am making it now done with the NBD read request submission
should be ready soon.
Thanks and regards,
