6:34 a.m.
Add a flag (modifies_fd) to the call structure in generator/API.ml
which is set to true if the handle call may do something with the
file descriptor. That is, it is true for all calls which are or may
call aio_notify_*, including all synchronous commands like
nbd_connect or nbd_opt_go.
The motivation for this is that the asynchronous handle in the Rust
bindings uses its own loop for polling, modifying the file descriptor
outside of this loop may cause unexpected behaviour. Including that the
handle may hang. All commands which set this flag to true will be
excluded from that handle. The asynchronous (aio_*) functions will be
used instead.
