Merge remote-tracking branch 'remotes/kwolf-gitlab/tags/for-upstream' into staging
Block layer patches - qemu-storage-daemon: Add --daemonize - Fix x-blockdev-amend and block node activation code which incorrectly executed code in the iothread that must run in the main thread. - Add macros for coroutine-safe TLS variables (required for correctness with LTO) - Fix crashes with concurrent I/O and bdrv_refresh_limits() - Split block APIs in global state and I/O - iotests: Don't refuse to run at all without GNU sed, just skip tests that need it # gpg: Signature made Fri 04 Mar 2022 17:18:31 GMT # gpg: using RSA key DC3DEB159A9AF95D3D7456FE7F09B272C88F2FD6 # gpg: issuer "kwolf@redhat.com" # gpg: Good signature from "Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com>" [full] # Primary key fingerprint: DC3D EB15 9A9A F95D 3D74 56FE 7F09 B272 C88F 2FD6 * remotes/kwolf-gitlab/tags/for-upstream: (50 commits) block/amend: Keep strong reference to BDS block/amend: Always call .bdrv_amend_clean() tests/qemu-iotests: Rework the checks and spots using GNU sed iotests/graph-changes-while-io: New test iotests: Allow using QMP with the QSD block: Make bdrv_refresh_limits() non-recursive job.h: assertions in the callers of JobDriver function pointers job.h: split function pointers in JobDriver block-backend-common.h: split function pointers in BlockDevOps block_int-common.h: assertions in the callers of BdrvChildClass function pointers block_int-common.h: split function pointers in BdrvChildClass block_int-common.h: assertions in the callers of BlockDriver function pointers block_int-common.h: split function pointers in BlockDriver block/coroutines: I/O and "I/O or GS" API block/copy-before-write.h: global state API + assertions include/block/snapshot: global state API + assertions assertions for blockdev.h global state API include/sysemu/blockdev.h: global state API assertions for blockjob.h global state API include/block/blockjob.h: global state API ...
