Hi,
I seem to be having problems with the new listed syntax on the wiki;
on the secondary I'm getting the error
Block format 'replication' used by device 'virtio0' doesn't support the
option 'export'

Sorry, the option export is removed, because we use the qmp command
nbd-server-add to let a BB be NBD server.
This is using 6fd6ce32 from the colo_framework_v7.2 tag.
What have I missed?
Dave
P.S. the name 'file.backing.backing.backing_reference' is not nice!
Which name is better? My native language is not English, so any such
suggestion is welcome.
Thanks

TODO:
1. Continuous block replication. It will be started after basic functions
are accepted.
Changs Log:
V7:
1. Implement adding/removing quorum child. Remove the option non-connect.
2. Simplify the backing refrence option according to Stefan Hajnoczi's
suggestion
V6:
1. Rebase to the newest qemu.
V5:
1. Address the comments from Gong Lei
2. Speed the failover up. The secondary vm can take over very quickly even
if there are too many I/O requests.
V4:
1. Introduce a new driver replication to avoid touch nbd and qcow2.
V3:
1: use error_setg() instead of error_set()
2. Add a new block job API
3. Active disk, hidden disk and nbd target uses the same AioContext
4. Add a testcase to test new hbitmap API
V2:
1. Redesign the secondary qemu(use image-fleecing)
2. Use Error objects to return error message
3. Address the comments from Max Reitz and Eric Blake
Wen Congyang (17):
Add new block driver interface to add/delete a BDS's child
quorum: implement block driver interfaces add/delete a BDS's child
hmp: add monitor command to add/remove a child
introduce a new API qemu_opts_absorb_qdict_by_index()
quorum: allow ignoring child errors
introduce a new API to enable/disable attach device model
introduce a new API to check if blk is attached
block: make bdrv_put_ref_bh_schedule() as a public API
Backup: clear all bitmap when doing block checkpoint
allow writing to the backing file
Allow creating backup jobs when opening BDS
block: Allow references for backing files
docs: block replication's description
Add new block driver interfaces to control block replication
skip nbd_target when starting block replication
quorum: implement block driver interfaces for block replication
Implement new driver for block replication
