NBD: set uninitialized devices to size 0
Subsystems (2)
PATCH 1/2 NBD: set uninitialized devices to size 0
This fixes errors with utilities (such as LVM's vgscan) that try to scan all devices. Previously this would generate read errors when uninitialized nbd devices were scanned:
# vgscan Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while... /dev/nbd0: read failed after 0 of 1024 at 0: Input/output error /dev/nbd0: read failed after 0 of 1024 at 509804544: Input/output error /dev/nbd0: read failed after 0 of 2048 at 0: Input/output error /dev/nbd1: read failed after 0 of 1024 at 509804544: Input/output error /dev/nbd1: read failed after 0 of 2048 at 0: Input/output error
From now on, uninitialized nbd devices will have size zero, which prevents these errors.
Patch applies and was tested against 2.6.23-rc2-mm2.
Thanks,
Paul

PATCH 2/2 NBD: allow hung network I/O to be cancelled
This patch allows NBD I/O to be cancelled when a network outage occurs. Previously, I/O would just hang, and if enough I/O was hung in nbd, the system (at least user-level) would completely hang until a TCP timeout (default, 15 minutes) occurred.
The patch introduces a new ioctl NBD_SET_TIMEOUT that allows a transmit timeout value (in seconds) to be specified. Any network send that exceeds the timeout will be cancelled and the nbd connection will be shut down. I've tested with various timeout values and 6 seconds seems to be a good choice for the timeout. If the NBD_SET_TIMEOUT ioctl is not called, you get the old (I/O hang) behavior.
Patch applies and was tested against 2.6.23-rc2-mm2.

Hi Paul,
Thanks for implementing this! Do you happen to have an associated nbd-client patch for userspace? If not I'd be happy to coordinate with you and Wouter on a patch.
regards,
Mike

No, I don't. I just basically hardcoded my nbd-client to do a 6 second timeout by default, but Wouter will probably want to do something a little less hackish for the official nbd-client.

I somewhat randomly marked both these as 2.6.24 material. If you think that was incorrect, please shout out.

I have the feeling that I mentioned nbd issues several releases ago, but never got to getting more info on reproducing them. I try not to submit bugs I can't reproduce, oftem they're my fault :-(
