Should be "$uri" here (to avoid accidental shell globbing surprises).

1024 isn't much larger than 512. It looks like you borrowed heavily
from examples/threaded-reads-and-writes.c, but that used 1M as the
large buffer.

Why are you hard-coding this to the same fixed seed, for every worker
thread?

Is this missing a math operation to check only one bit of the generated value?
/me goes and reads more Rust docs
Oh, so rng.gen() is shorthand for rng.gen::<bool>() when used in a
boolean context, which really does have a 50/50 split in returned
values? Cool shorthand!

[1]...but you are actually targetting anywhere in the image. It looks
like that was a copy-paste error from a comment that has gone stale
after refactoring in the original C code.

I'm impressed: the async handle makes for functions that use a lot
less boilerplate than the comparable C nbd_aio_* counterparts.
