Thanks for the report. The upstream discussion is here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2020-March/msg00132.html

I installed libnbd first (manually) and that solved the problem.

Soft dependency. However if it turns out that the nbd standalone plugin is actually broken then compiing without libnbd around seems like it will always cause a hang, until we get that fixed upstream.

@rwmjones would you recommend making libnbd a hard or soft dependency for the nbdkit package?
rwmjones commented on 2020-03-16 08:47
And yes there is a circular dependency between libnbd <-> nbdkit, but: (1) Neither dependency is essential and (2) Old versions of one package can be used to build new versions of the other package.

One thing that strikes me about your test is that you are using the "standalone" version of nbdkit-nbd-plugin, the one which is implemented using raw NBD protocol calls. Since we wrote libnbd we basically never use or test the standalone version of the plugin, and instead we use the libnbd-based one. The two plugins are here:
https://github.com/libguestfs/nbdkit/blob/master/plugins/nbd/nbd-standalone.c https://github.com/libguestfs/nbdkit/blob/master/plugins/nbd/nbd.c
The easy way to test this theory would be to add libnbd as a dependency of nbdkit in AUR. nbdkit's ./configure should just pick up the new dependency automatically. (See also https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/libnbd)
This has other advantages - the nbdkit test suite is more thorough when libnbd is available since having it enables much more complete testing to be done. You should find that many tests which were "SKIP" before will run after this.

This shouldn't be happening, and seems to indicate a bug in the server:
test-parallel-nbd.sh.log:nbdkit: backend.c:523: backend_flush: Assertion `h->can_flush == 1' failed.
I'll ask my colleague who wrote the nbd plugin to take a look.
