10:15 p.m.
Added merely as an example to be run by hand, rather than automated
into 'make check', since nbdkit --filter=noparallel is quite new.

+/* This example can be copied, used and modified for any purpose
+ * without restrictions.
+ *
+ * Example usage with nbdkit:
+ *
+ * timeout 10s nbdkit -U - --filter=noparallel memory 2M \
+ * --run './batched-read-write $unixsocket'
+ *
+ * This will attempt to batch a large aio read request immediately
+ * followed by a large aio write request, prior to waiting for any
+ * command replies from the server. A naive client that does not check
+ * for available read data related to the first command while trying
+ * to write data for the second command, coupled with a server that
+ * only processes commands serially, would cause deadlock (both
+ * processes fill up their write buffers waiting for a reader); thus,
+ * this tests that libnbd is smart enough to always respond to replies
+ * for in-flight requests even when it has batched up other commands
+ * to write.
+ *
+ * To run it against a remote server over TCP:
+ *
+ * ./batched-read-write hostname port
