nbd_opt_abort(3) LIBNBD nbd_opt_abort(3)

nbd_opt_abort - end negotiation and close the connection

#include <libnbd.h>
int nbd_opt_abort (
      struct nbd_handle *h
    );

Request that the server finish negotiation, gracefully if possible, then close the connection. This can only be used if nbd_set_opt_mode(3) enabled option mode.

If the call is successful the function returns 0.

On error -1 is returned.

Refer to "ERROR HANDLING" in libnbd(3) for how to get further details of the error.

The following parameters must not be NULL: "h". For more information see "Non-NULL parameters" in libnbd(3).

nbd_opt_abort can be called when the handle is in the following state:

┌─────────────────────────────────────┬─────────────────────────┐
│ Handle created, before connecting   │ ❌ error                │
│ Connecting                          │ ❌ error                │
│ Connecting & handshaking (opt_mode) │ ✅ allowed              │
│ Connected to the server             │ ❌ error                │
│ Connection shut down                │ ❌ error                │
│ Handle dead                         │ ❌ error                │
└─────────────────────────────────────┴─────────────────────────┘

This function first appeared in libnbd 1.4.

If you need to test if this function is available at compile time check if the following macro is defined:

#define LIBNBD_HAVE_NBD_OPT_ABORT 1

This example is also available as examples/list-exports.c in the libnbd source code.

/* This example shows how to list NBD exports.
 *
 * To test this with qemu-nbd:
 *   $ qemu-nbd -x "hello" -t -k /tmp/sock disk.img
 *   $ ./run examples/list-exports /tmp/sock
 *   [0] hello
 *   Which export to connect to (-1 to quit)? 0
 *   Connecting to hello ...
 *   /tmp/sock: hello: size = 2048 bytes
 *
 * To test this with nbdkit (requires 1.22):
 *   $ nbdkit -U /tmp/sock sh - <<\EOF
 *   case $1 in
 *     list_exports) echo NAMES; echo foo; echo foobar ;;
 *     open) echo "$3" ;;
 *     get_size) echo "$2" | wc -c ;;
 *     pread) echo "$2" | dd bs=1 skip=$4 count=$3 ;;
 *     *) exit 2 ;;
 *   esac
 *   EOF
 *   $ ./run examples/list-exports /tmp/sock
 *   [0] foo
 *   [1] foobar
 *   Which export to connect to (-1 to quit)? 1
 *   Connecting to foobar ...
 *   /tmp/sock: foobar: size = 7 bytes
