rust-nbd

Network block device protocol implementation in Rust. Not all features are currently supported in server.

Accepts a Read+Write+Seek as a data to be exposed in server mode. Provides Read+Write+Seek in client mode. Underlying connection is Read+Write, usage of bufstream crate is recommended.

This library is IO-agnostic, but async is not supported.

See server example or client example.

This is a rather early version.
