28                                      uint64_t offset,
29                                      nbd_extent_callback extent_callback,
30                                      nbd_completion_callback completion_callback,

DESCRIPTION

34       Send the block status command to the NBD server.
35
36       To check if the command completed, call nbd_aio_command_completed(3).
37       Or supply the optional "completion_callback" which will be invoked as
38       described in "Completion callbacks" in libnbd(3).
39
40       Other parameters behave as documented in nbd_block_status(3).
41
42       By default, libnbd will reject attempts to use this function with
43       parameters that are likely to result in server failure, such as
44       requesting an unknown command flag.  The nbd_set_strict_mode(3)
45       function can be used to alter which scenarios should await a server
46       reply rather than failing fast.
47

RETURN VALUE

49       This call returns the 64 bit cookie of the command.  The cookie is ≥ 1.
50       Cookies are unique (per libnbd handle, not globally).
51

ERRORS

53       On error "-1" is returned.
54
55       Refer to "ERROR HANDLING" in libnbd(3) for how to get further details
56       of the error.
57

HANDLE STATE

59       The handle must be connected with the server, otherwise this call will
60       return an error.
61

VERSION

63       This function first appeared in libnbd 1.0.
64
65       If you need to test if this function is available at compile time check
66       if the following macro is defined:
67
68        #define LIBNBD_HAVE_NBD_AIO_BLOCK_STATUS 1
