PATCH 1/3 nbd/server: Advertise all contexts in response to bare LIST
The NBD spec, and even our code comment, says that if the client asks for NBD_OPT_LIST_META_CONTEXT with 0 queries, then we should reply with (a possibly-compressed representation of) ALL contexts that we are willing to let them try. But commit 3d068aff forgot to advertise qemu:dirty-bitmap:FOO.

PATCH 2/3 nbd/client: Make x-dirty-bitmap more reliable
In reply to Eric BlakeThe implementation of x-dirty-bitmap in qemu 3.0 silently falls back to treating the server as not supporting NBD_CMD_BLOCK_STATUS if a requested meta_context name was not negotiated, which in turn means treating the _entire_ image as data. Since our hack relied on using 'qemu-img map' to view which portions of the image were dirty by seeing what the redirected bdrv_block_status() treats as holes, this means that our fallback treats the entire image as clean. Better would have been to treat the entire image as dirty, or to fail to connect because the user's request for a specific context could not be honored. This patch goes with the latter.

PATCH 3/3 nbd/client: Send NBD_CMD_DISC if open fails after connect
In reply to Eric BlakeIf nbd_client_init() fails after we are already connected, then the server will spam logs with:
Disconnect client, due to: Unexpected end-of-file before all bytes were read
unless we gracefully disconnect before closing the connection.
Ways to trigger this:

And CVEs might be the reason for an -rc4. I'm queuing this on my NBD tree, ready to send a Pull Request by early Monday if we indeed end up with an -rc4.

...which we will, so would you like to send that pullreq ?
