[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 1/4] qemu-nbd: exit if the child exits before a socket connection is established

[Paolo Bonzini]

In -c mode qemu-nbd forks with the parent running the in-kernel NBD
client and the child running the server.  The next patch will introduce
a case in which the child fails after forking.  Detect this situation
and exit the parent.
