nbdkit is a toolkit for creating NBD servers.

The key features are:

• Multithreaded NBD server written in C with good performance.

• Minimal dependencies for the basic server.

• Liberal license (BSD) allows nbdkit to be linked to proprietary libraries or included in proprietary code.

• Well-documented, simple plugin API with a stable ABI guarantee. Lets you export “unconventional” block devices easily.

• You can write plugins in C, Go, Lua, Perl, Python, OCaml, Ruby, Rust, shell script or Tcl.

• Filters can be stacked in front of plugins to transform the output.

Seems to be constantly updated, should be package-able.
