The inline comment mostly describes this patchset. As far as OpenBMC is
concerned, no platforms or distros implement a backend for this code,
therefore this is dead "unused" code. Clearly the authors intended to
use it, but haven't been able to upstream anything.
For the moment, this patchset makes the nbd proxy option unenablable.
This will have no impact to any OpenBMC platforms, as there are no
implementations of this API in OpenBMC itself, only in downstream forks.
It's not clear what the intentions are with this code, so hopefully this
disabling and comment encourages those that care about it to interact
and add some details around how this was designed, and the plans to
upstream it into OpenBMC. If not, presumably the code can be deleted
without any harm.
For timelines, this was checked in Jul 12, 2019, so we're now 20 months
past its initial entry. This seems like enough time for the dust to
have settled on getting the appropriate things upstreamed.
