Until commit 1c778ef7 ("nbd: convert to using I/O channels for actual socket I/O", 2016-02-16), nbd_wr_sync returned -EAGAIN this scenario. nbd_reply_ready required these semantics because it has two conflicting requirements: 1) if a reply can be received on the socket, nbd_reply_ready needs to read the header outside coroutine context to identify _which_ coroutine to enter to process the rest of the reply 2) on the other hand, nbd_reply_ready can find a false positive if another thread (e.g. a VCPU thread running aio_poll) sneaks in and calls nbd_reply_ready too. In this case nbd_reply_ready does nothing and expects nbd_wr_syncv to return -EAGAIN. Currently, the solution to the first requirement is to wait in the very rare case of a read() that doesn't retrieve the reply header in its entirety; this is what nbd_wr_syncv does by calling qio_channel_wait(). However, the unconditional call to qio_channel_wait() breaks the second requirement. To fix this, the patch makes nbd_wr_syncv return -EAGAIN if done is zero, similar to the code before commit 1c778ef7. This is okay because NBD client-side negotiation is the only other case that calls nbd_wr_syncv outside a coroutine, and it places the socket in blocking mode. On the other hand, it is a bit unpleasant to put this in nbd_wr_syncv(), because the function is used by both client and server. The full fix would be to add a counter to NbdClientSession for how many bytes have been filled in s->reply. Then a reply can be filled by multiple separate invocations of nbd_reply_ready and the qio_channel_wait() call can be removed completely. Something to consider for 2.7...
