2012-05-07block: make bdrv_create adopt coroutineZhi Yong Wu
The current qemu.git introduces failure with preallocation and some sizes: qemu-img create -f qcow2 new.img 976563K -o preallocation=metadata qemu-img: qemu-coroutine-lock.c:111: qemu_co_mutex_unlock: Assertion `mutex->locked == 1' failed. And lock needs to work in coroutine context. So to fix this issue, we need to make bdrv_create adopt coroutine at first.

2012-04-27block: add 'speed' optional parameter to block-streamStefan Hajnoczi
Allow streaming operations to be started with an initial speed limit. This eliminates the window of time between starting streaming and issuing block-job-set-speed. Users should use the new optional 'speed' parameter instead so that speed limits are in effect immediately when the job starts.

2012-04-27block: use Error mechanism instead of -errno for block_job_set_speed()Stefan Hajnoczi
There are at least two different errors that can occur in block_job_set_speed(): the job might not support setting speeds or the value might be invalid.

2012-04-27block: use Error mechanism instead of -errno for block_job_create()Stefan Hajnoczi
The block job API uses -errno return values internally and we convert these to Error in the QMP functions. This is ugly because the Error should be created at the point where we still have all the relevant information. More importantly, it is hard to add new error cases to this case since we quickly run out of -errno values without losing information. Go ahead and use Error directly and don't convert later.

2012-04-20qemu-img: let 'qemu-img convert' flush dataLiu Yuan
The 'qemu-img convert -h' advertise that the default cache mode is 'writeback', while in fact it is 'unsafe'. This patch 1) fix the help manual and 2) let bdrv_close() call bdrv_flush() 2) is needed because some backend storage doesn't have a self-flush mechanism(for e.g., sheepdog), so we need to call bdrv_flush() to make sure the image is really writen to the storage instead of hanging around writeback cache forever.

2012-04-05block: bdrv_append() fixesJeff Cody
A few fixups for bdrv_append(): The new bs (bs_new) passed into bdrv_append() should be anonymous. Rather than call bdrv_make_anon() to enforce this, use an assert to catch when a caller is passing in a bs_new that is not anonymous. Also, the new top layer should have its backing_format reflect the original top's format. And last, after the swap of bs contents, the device_name will have been copied down.

2012-04-05block: fix streaming/closing racePaolo Bonzini
Streaming can issue I/O while qcow2_close is running. This causes the L2 caches to become very confused or, alternatively, could cause a segfault when the streaming coroutine is reentered after closing its block device. The fix is to cancel streaming jobs when closing their underlying device. The cancellation must be synchronous, on the other hand qemu_aio_wait will not restart a coroutine that is sleeping in co_sleep. So add a flag saying whether streaming has in-flight I/O. If the busy flag is false, the coroutine is quiescent and, when cancelled, will not issue any new I/O. This protects streaming against closing, but not against deleting. We have a reference count protecting us against concurrent deletion, but I still added an assertion to ensure nothing bad happens.

2012-03-12block: handle -EBUSY in bdrv_commit_all()Stefan Hajnoczi
Monitor operations that manipulate image files must not execute while a background job (like image streaming) is in progress. This prevents corruptions from happening when two pieces of code are manipulating the image file without knowledge of each other. The monitor "commit" command raises QERR_DEVICE_IN_USE when bdrv_commit() returns -EBUSY but "commit all" has no error handling. This is easy to fix, although note that we do not deliver a detailed error about which device was busy in the "commit all" case.

2012-02-29qapi: Introduce blockdev-group-snapshot-sync commandJeff Cody
This is a QAPI/QMP only command to take a snapshot of a group of devices. This is similar to the blockdev-snapshot-sync command, except blockdev-group-snapshot-sync accepts a list devices, filenames, and formats. It is attempted to keep the snapshot of the group atomic; if the creation or open of any of the new snapshots fails, then all of the new snapshots are abandoned, and the name of the snapshot image that failed is returned. The failure case should not interrupt any operations. Rather than use bdrv_close() along with a subsequent bdrv_open() to perform the pivot, the original image is never closed and the new image is placed 'in front' of the original image via manipulation of the BlockDriverState fields. Thus, once the new snapshot image has been successfully created, there are no more failure points before pivoting to the new snapshot. This allows the group of disks to remain consistent with each other, even across snapshot failures.

2012-02-09block: perform zero-detection during copy-on-readStefan Hajnoczi
Copy-on-Read populates the image file with data read from a backing image. In order to avoid bloating the image file when all zeroes are read we should scan the buffer and perform an optimized zero write operation.

2012-02-09block: add .bdrv_co_write_zeroes() interfaceStefan Hajnoczi
The ability to zero regions of an image file is a useful primitive for higher-level features such as image streaming or zero write detection. Image formats may support an optimized metadata representation instead of writing zeroes into the image file. This allows zero writes to be potentially faster than regular write operations and also preserve sparseness of the image file. The .bdrv_co_write_zeroes() interface should be implemented by block drivers that wish to provide efficient zeroing. Note that this operation is different from the discard operation, which may leave the contents of the region indeterminate. That means discarded blocks are not guaranteed to contain zeroes and may contain junk data instead.

2012-01-26block: make copy-on-read a per-request flagStefan Hajnoczi
Previously copy-on-read could only be enabled for all requests to a block device. This means requests coming from the guest as well as QEMU's internal requests would perform copy-on-read when enabled. For image streaming we want to support finer-grained behavior than just populating the image file from its backing image. Image streaming supports partial streaming where a common backing image is preserved. In this case guest requests should not perform copy-on-read because they would indiscriminately copy data which should be left in a backing image from the backing chain. Introduce a per-request flag for copy-on-read so that a block device can process both regular and copy-on-read requests. Overlapping reads and writes still need to be serialized for correctness when copy-on-read is happening, so add an in-flight reference count to track this.

Many places in QEMU call qemu_aio_flush() to complete all pending asynchronous I/O. Most of these places actually want to drain all block requests but there is no block layer API to do so.

The BlockDriverState gets a new tracked_request list field which contains all pending requests. Each request is a BdrvTrackedRequest record with sector_num, nb_sectors, and is_write fields. Note that request tracking is always enabled but hopefully this extra work is so small that it doesn't justify adding an enable/disable flag.

This patch adds the .bdrv_co_is_allocated() interface which is identical to .bdrv_is_allocated() but runs in coroutine context. Running in coroutine context implies that other coroutines might be performing I/O at the same time. Therefore it must be safe to run while the following BlockDriver functions are in-flight: .bdrv_co_readv() .bdrv_co_writev() .bdrv_co_flush() .bdrv_co_is_allocated() The new .bdrv_co_is_allocated() interface is useful because it can be used when a VM is running, whereas .bdrv_is_allocated() is a synchronous interface that does not cope with parallel requests.

2011-11-21block: allow migration to work with image files (v3)Anthony Liguori
Image files have two types of data: immutable data that describes things like image size, backing files, etc. and mutable data that includes offset and reference count tables. Today, image formats aggressively cache mutable data to improve performance. In some cases, this happens before a guest even starts. When dealing with live migration, since a file is open on two machines, the caching of meta data can lead to data corruption. This patch addresses this by introducing a mechanism to invalidate any cached mutable data a block driver may have which is then used by the live migration code. NB, this still requires coherent shared storage. Addressing migration without coherent shared storage (i.e. NFS) requires additional work. Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2011-11-11block: Make cache=unsafe flush to the OSKevin Wolf
cache=unsafe completely ignored bdrv_flush, because flushing the host disk costs a lot of performance. However, this means that qcow2 images (and potentially any other format) can lose data even after the guest has issued a flush if the qemu process crashes/is killed. In case of a host crash, data loss is certainly expected with cache=unsafe, but if just the qemu process dies this is a bit too unsafe. Now that we have two separate flush functions, we can choose to flush everythign to the OS, but don't enforce that it's physically written to the disk. Signed-off-by: Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com>
2011-11-11block: Introduce bdrv_co_flush_to_osKevin Wolf
qcow2 has a writeback metadata cache, so flushing a qcow2 image actually consists of writing back that cache to the protocol and only then flushes the protocol in order to get everything stable on disk.

2011-11-11block: add eject request callbackPaolo Bonzini
Recent versions of udev always keep the tray locked so that the kernel can observe "eject request" events (aka tray button presses) even on discs that aren't mounted. Add support for these events in the ATAPI and SCSI cd drive device models. To let management cope with the behavior of udev, an event should also be added for "tray opened/closed". This way, after issuing an "eject" command, management can poll until the guests actually reacts to the command. They can then issue the "change" command after the tray has been opened, or try with "eject -f" after a (configurable?) timeout. However, with this patch and the corresponding support in the device models, at least it is possible to do a manual two-step eject+change sequence.
