NAME

nbd_set_opt_mode - control option mode, for pausing during option negotiation

SYNOPSIS

#include <libnbd.h>
int nbd_set_opt_mode (
struct nbd_handle *h, bool enable
);

Set this flag to true in order to request that a connection command "nbd_connect_*" will pause for negotiation options rather than proceeding all the way to the ready state, when communicating with a newstyle server. This setting has no effect when connecting to an oldstyle server.

Note that libnbd defaults to attempting "NBD_OPT_STARTTLS", "NBD_OPT_EXTENDED_HEADERS", and "NBD_OPT_STRUCTURED_REPLY" before letting you control remaining negotiation steps; if you need control over these steps as well, first set nbd_set_tls(3) to "LIBNBD_TLS_DISABLE", and nbd_set_request_extended_headers(3) or nbd_set_request_structured_replies(3) to false, before starting the connection attempt.

When option mode is enabled, you have fine-grained control over which options are negotiated, compared to the default of the server negotiating everything on your behalf using settings made before starting the connection. To leave the mode and proceed on to the ready state, you must use nbd_opt_go(3) successfully; a failed nbd_opt_go(3) returns to the negotiating state to allow a change of export name before trying again. You may also use nbd_opt_abort(3) or nbd_shutdown(3) to end the connection without finishing negotiation.

RETURN VALUE

If the call is successful the function returns 0.

ERRORS

On error -1 is returned.

Refer to "ERROR HANDLING" in libnbd(3) for how to get further details of the error.

The following parameters must not be NULL: "h". For more information see "Non-NULL parameters" in libnbd(3).

HANDLE STATE

nbd_set_opt_mode can be called when the handle is in the following state:

┌─────────────────────────────────────┬─────────────────────────┐
│ Handle created, before connecting │ ✅ allowed │
│ Connecting │ ❌ error │
│ Connecting & handshaking (opt_mode) │ ❌ error │
│ Connected to the server │ ❌ error │
│ Connection shut down │ ❌ error │
│ Handle dead │ ❌ error │
└─────────────────────────────────────┴─────────────────────────┘

VERSION

This function first appeared in libnbd 1.4.

If you need to test if this function is available at compile time check if the following macro is defined:

#define LIBNBD_HAVE_NBD_SET_OPT_MODE 1

EXAMPLE

This example is also available as examples/list-exports.c in the libnbd source code.

/* This example shows how to list NBD exports.
*
* To test this with qemu-nbd:
* $ qemu-nbd -x "hello" -t -k /tmp/sock disk.img
* $ ./run examples/list-exports /tmp/sock
* [0] hello
* Which export to connect to (-1 to quit)? 0
* Connecting to hello ...
* /tmp/sock: hello: size = 2048 bytes
*
* To test this with nbdkit (requires 1.22):
* $ nbdkit -U /tmp/sock sh - <<\EOF
* case $1 in
* list_exports) echo NAMES; echo foo; echo foobar ;;
* open) echo "$3" ;;
* get_size) echo "$2" | wc -c ;;
* pread) echo "$2" | dd bs=1 skip=$4 count=$3 ;;
* *) exit 2 ;;
* esac
* EOF
* $ ./run examples/list-exports /tmp/sock
* [0] foo
* [1] foobar
* Which export to connect to (-1 to quit)? 1
* Connecting to foobar ...
* /tmp/sock: foobar: size = 7 bytes
