Public bug reported:
I'm trying to use nbd on ubuntu 20.04 like so:
qemu-img create -f qcow2 foo.img 500M
sudo modprobe nbd
sudo qemu-nbd --disconnect /dev/nbd15 || true
sudo qemu-nbd --connect=/dev/nbd15 --cache=writeback --format=qcow2 foo.img
sudo mkfs.ext4 -L root -O "^64bit" -E nodiscard /dev/nbd15
sudo qemu-nbd --disconnect /dev/nbd15
It seems to work on some systems, but even on those systems, strange things
show up
in syslog, e.g.
Sep 19 15:46:02 thinky kernel: [27042.757768] block nbd15: Possible stuck
request 00000000dd2d7f93: control (read@135168,126976B). Runtime 450 seconds
Sep 19 15:46:26 thinky kernel: [27067.333867] INFO: task systemd-udevd:17364
blocked for more than 241 seconds.
and in kern.log, e.g.

and the system seems to hang on reboot.
Also, on another system (an up to date mac, running ubuntu 20.04 in
virtualbox),
the mkfs.ext4 fails, complaining the device is zero size.
