Use set_fd_handler instead of a listening thread.
Change the reading/parsing function to be state-machine based, because they
no longer have their own thread.

Hi Kevin and all,
I think the BlockFilter direction goes very well with our plans for a
replication module.
I guess it would take some discussions and time to form a solid layer
for the BlockFilters, and I'd like to move ahead in parallel with the
replication module.
What do you say about the

Hi,
Thanks for all the valuable inputs provided so far, I'll try to suggest
a design based on them.
The main inputs were about the use a new transport protocol between
repagent and rephub.
It was suggested to use some standard network storage protocol instead,
and use QMP commands for the contr
Hi,
Following previous mails from Kevin and Dor, I'd like to specify the
high level requirements of a replication agent as I see them.
1. Report each write to a protected volume to the rephub, at an IO
transaction granularity
* The reporting is not synchronous, i.e. the write completion is
