NBD Copy-on-Write Fixes
When
2025-07-02
What
Two different fixes for data corruption when using copy-on-write with NBD (network block device.) The first fix is for a bug where NBD could send corrupt data to the client, leaving the on-disk data pristine. The second bug fixed concerns sparse copy-on-write that could fail when extending the file.
