The said libvirt error:

    "internal error: missing block job data for disk ..."

... was introduced in this libvirt commit:

    — qemu: blockjob: Pass job into qemuBlockJobUpdateDisk and rename it

I'm checking with the libvirt developers for some more input. As this is related to libvirt Block Layer interface with NBD.
