=head1 NAME
nbd_get_export_description - return the export description, if the
server has one
=head1 SYNOPSIS
#include <libnbd.h>
char * nbd_get_export_description (
struct nbd_handle *h
);
=head1 DESCRIPTION
The NBD protocol permits a server to report an optional export
description. This function reports any description returned by
the server.
Some servers are unlikely to report a description unless the
client specifically hinted about wanting it, via L<nbd_set_full_info(3)>.
For L<qemu-nbd(8)>, a description is set with I<-D>.
=head1 RETURN VALUE
This call returns a string. The caller must free the
returned string to avoid a memory leak.
=head1 ERRORS
On error C<NULL> is returned.
Refer to L<libnbd(3)/ERROR HANDLING>
for how to get further details of the error.
The following parameters must not be NULL: C<h>.
For more information see L<libnbd(3)/Non-NULL parameters>.
=head1 HANDLE STATE
nbd_get_export_description
can be called when the handle is in the following states:
┌─────────────────────────────────────┬─────────────────────────┐
│ Handle created, before connecting │ ❌ error │
│ Connecting │ ❌ error │
│ Connecting & handshaking (opt_mode) │ ✅ allowed │
│ Connected to the server │ ✅ allowed │
│ Connection shut down │ ✅ allowed │
│ Handle dead │ ❌ error │
└─────────────────────────────────────┴─────────────────────────┘
=head1 VERSION
This function first appeared in libnbd 1.4.
If you need to test if this function is available at compile time
check if the following macro is defined:
#define LIBNBD_HAVE_NBD_GET_EXPORT_DESCRIPTION 1
=head1 EXAMPLE
This example is also available as F<examples/server-flags.c>
in the libnbd source code.
/* This example shows how to connect to an NBD
* server and print the export flags.
*
* You can test it with nbdkit like this:
*
* nbdkit -U - memory 1M \
* --run './server-flags $unixsocket'
