    Jordan, please ping me when you have a patch for that and I will try to
    make it a priority.

Getting back to the original intent of the thread, are there CI results with instance/volume snapshot for these volume drivers so we can see that os-assisted-volume-snapshots is passing?

I'm not particularly interested in the volume-backed instance snapshot scenario because unless I'm mistaken, that would do something like:

1. nova-api to snapshot the instance
2. calls to nova-compute to quiesce the instance
3. then calls to cinder to snapshot the volume
4. which then cinder calls back to nova's os-assisted-volume-snapshots API

If that's the actual flow it's quite a complicated back and forth between the two services where lots of things could break down and I doubt get rolled back properly, similar to how cinder volume migration / retype has to call the nova swap-volume API which then calls back to cinder to tell it that the migration is complete.
