The libnbd part is here:

We may want to change also the nbd client code used in qemu-img. I can look at

is defined somewhere in the middle of the file. I'm going to use it in

The out file is not very useful, and even fragile - if the test framework
will change the output format, the test will fail. Ideally we depend only
on the relevant output of our tools, and using a different version of the test
framework on replacing it (e.g pytest) will not require modifying the out
files.
Regardless I would like to see this fix merged and this issue already
exists in other tests. Some tests in tests/ do have useful output that can
make debugging failures easier.

NBDRequestData struct has unused QSIMPLEQ_ENTRY filed. It seems that
this field exists since the first git commit and was never used.

The point of 'qemu-img convert --bitmaps' is to be a convenience for

Would be nice if this could be generated from the json schema instead
of repeating the type and description of the fields, but this is a nice
improvement.

This makes the locking implementation public, so qemu can never change
