Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH 5/5] nbd: Tolerate more errors to structured reply request
Date: Fri, 23 Aug 2019 09:37:26 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190823143726.27062-6-eblake@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190823143726.27062-1-eblake@redhat.com>

A server may have a reason to reject a request for structured replies,
beyond just not recognizing them as a valid request.  It doesn't hurt
us to continue talking to such a server; otherwise 'qemu-nbd --list'
of such a server fails to display all possible details about the
export.

Encountered when temporarily tweaking nbdkit to reply with
NBD_REP_ERR_POLICY.  Present since structured reply support was first
added (commit d795299b reused starttls handling, but starttls has to
reject all errors).
