Firstly I wrote a patch for qemu which uses libssh2 to access remote disks. It might be interesting for some people on this list:
http://www.mail-archive.com/qemu-devel@nongnu.org/msg161996.html http://www.mail-archive.com/qemu-devel@nongnu.org/msg161997.html Now my question: The libssh2_sftp_{read,write} functions sometimes return LIBSSH2_ERROR_TIMEOUT, maybe 1 time in 5, and apparently at random. I don't understand why they do this, and so far I've managed to work around the "problem" by retrying the operation, and things seem to be fine. However I don't know if this is the correct thing to do. Any advice would be helpful.
