#            NBD connection (default false).
#
# @bitmap: Also export the dirty bitmap reachable from @device, so the
#          NBD client can use NBD_OPT_SET_META_CONTEXT with
#          "qemu:dirty-bitmap:NAME" to inspect the bitmap. (since 4.0)

#
# @hard: Drop all connections immediately and remove export.
#
# Potential additional modes to be added in the future:
#
# hide: Just hide export from new clients, leave existing connections as is.
# Remove export after all clients are disconnected.
#
# soft: Hide export from new clients, answer with ESHUTDOWN for all further
# requests from existing clients.
#
# Since: 2.12
