Re: [Libguestfs] [PATCH nbdkit] New plugin: blkio [incomplete]

Here's an updated version which supports read, write, flush, write-zeroes, discard and FUA: https://gitlab.com/rwmjones/nbdkit/-/commits/2023-libblkio/ I was able to access a local file using the io_uring driver using guestfish. You can try it like this: $ ./nbdkit -fv blkio io_uring path=/var/tmp/fedora-36.img \ --run ' guestfish --format=raw -a $uri -i ' I haven't tested it exhaustively, but it seems to work OK. Obviously it will be a bit slow. It doesn't implement pre-allocated buffers, so advice on how and when to do that would be welcome. Rich.
