Hi,

I'm using NBD to stitch several dozens of 1G files together to one
block device. Thing is that can be done in several different ways, and
I haven't yet figured out the right set of parameters to pass to my
nbd-server. So, what happens is that I kill the nbd server, and
restart it. Turns out that the cache for the nbd device is not cleared
when the client quits!

Thus I see the old contents after restarting the server with different
parameters....

Roger.

P.S. CC-ed to Pavel, with wrong linux-kernel addr. Oops.
