2009-04-07native preadv/pwritev support (Christoph Hellwig)aliguori
This ties up the preadv/pwritev syscalls to qemu if they are declared in unistd.h. This is the case currently on at least NetBSD and OpenBSD and will hopefully soon be the case on Linux. Thanks to Blue Swirl and Gerd Hoffmann for the configure autodetection of preadv/pwritev.

2009-04-07push down vector linearization to posix-aio-compat.c (Christoph Hellwig)aliguori
Make all AIO requests vectored and defer linearization until the actual I/O thread. This prepares for using native preadv/pwritev. Also enables asynchronous direct I/O by handling that case in the I/O thread. Qcow and qcow2 propably want to be adopted to directly deal with multi-segment requests, but that can be implemented later.

We now enforce that you cannot write beyond the end of a non-growable file. qcow2 files are not growable but we rely on them being growable to do savevm/loadvm. Temporarily allow them to be growable by introducing a new API specifically for savevm read/write operations.

2009-03-28new scsi-generic abstraction, use SG_IO (Christoph Hellwig)aliguori
Okay, I started looking into how to handle scsi-generic I/O in the new world order. I think the best is to use the SG_IO ioctl instead of the read/write interface as that allows us to support scsi passthrough on disk/cdrom devices, too. See Hannes patch on the kvm list from August for an example. Now that we always do ioctls we don't need another abstraction than bdrv_ioctl for the synchronous requests for now, and for asynchronous requests I've added a aio_ioctl abstraction keeping it simple. Long-term we might want to move the ops to a higher-level abstraction and let the low-level code fill out the request header, but I'm lazy enough to leave that to the people trying to support scsi-passthrough on a non-Linux OS. Tested lightly by issuing various sg_ commands from sg3-utils in a guest to a host CDROM device.

2009-03-12Add specialized block driver scsi generic API (Avi Kivity)aliguori
When a scsi device is backed by a scsi generic device instead of an ordinary host block device, the block API is abused in a couple of annoying ways: - nb_sectors is negative, and specifies a byte count instead of a sector count - offset is ignored, since scsi-generic is essentially a packet protocol This overloading makes hacking the block layer difficult. Remove it by introducing a new explicit API for scsi-generic devices. The new API is still backed by the old implementation, but at least the users are insulated.

2009-03-05monitor: Rework API (Jan Kiszka)aliguori
Refactor the monitor API and prepare it for decoupled terminals: term_print functions are renamed to monitor_* and all monitor services gain a new parameter (mon) that will once refer to the monitor instance the output is supposed to appear on. However, the argument remains unused for now. All monitor command callbacks are also extended by a mon parameter so that command handlers are able to pass an appropriate reference to monitor output services. For the case that monitor outputs so far happen without clearly identifiable context, the global variable cur_mon is introduced that shall once provide a pointer either to the current active monitor (while processing commands) or to the default one. On the mid or long term, those use case will be obsoleted so that this variable can be removed again. Due to the broad usage of the monitor interface, this patch mostly deals with converting users of the monitor API. A few of them are already extended to pass 'mon' from the command handler further down to internal functions that invoke monitor_printf. At this chance, monitor-related prototypes are moved from console.h to a new monitor.h. The same is done for the readline API.

2009-03-05monitor: Rework modal password input (Jan Kiszka)aliguori
Currently, waiting for the user to type in some password blocks the whole VM because monitor_readline starts its own I/O loop. And this loop also screws up reading passwords from virtual console. Patch below fixes the shortcomings by using normal I/O processing also for waiting on a password. To keep to modal property for the monitor terminal, the command handler is temporarily replaced by a password handler and a callback infrastructure is established to process the result before switching back to command mode.

2009-03-05monitor: Rework early disk password inquiry (Jan Kiszka)aliguori
Reading the passwords for encrypted hard disks during early startup is broken (I guess for quiet a while now): - No monitor terminal is ready for input at this point - Forcing all mux'ed terminals into monitor mode can confuse other users of that channels To overcome these issues and to lay the ground for a clean decoupling of monitor terminals, this patch changes the initial password inquiry as follows: - Prevent autostart if there is some encrypted disk - Once the user tries to resume the VM, prompt for all missing passwords - Only resume if all passwords were accepted Signed-off-by: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@siemens.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com> git-svn-id: svn://svn.savannah.nongnu.org/qemu/trunk@6707 c046a42c-6fe2-441c-8c8c-71466251a162

2009-03-03Fix CVE-2008-0928 - insufficient block device address range checking ↵aliguori
(Anthony Liguori) Introduce a growable flag that's set by bdrv_file_open(). Block devices should never be growable, only files that are being used by block devices. I went through Fabrice's early comments about the patch that was first applied. While I disagree with that patch, I also disagree with Fabrice's suggestion. There's no good reason to do the checks in the block drivers themselves. It just increases the possibility that this bug could show up again. Since we're calling bdrv_getlength() to determine the length, we're giving the block drivers a chance to chime in and let us know what range is valid. Basically, this patch makes the BlockDriver API guarantee that all requests are within 0..bdrv_getlength() which to me seems like a Good Thing. What do others think?

Most devices that are capable of DMA are also capable of scatter-gather. With the memory mapping API, this means that the device code needs to be able to access discontiguous host memory regions. For block devices, this translates to vectored I/O. This patch implements an aynchronous vectored interface for the qemu block devices.

2008-09-22Refactor AIO to allow multiple AIO implementationsaliguori
This patch refactors the AIO layer to allow multiple AIO implementations. It's only possible because of the recent signalfd() patch. Right now, the AIO infrastructure is pretty specific to the block raw backend. For other block devices to implement AIO, the qemu_aio_wait function must support registration. This patch introduces a new function, qemu_aio_set_fd_handler, which can be used to register a file descriptor to be called back. qemu_aio_wait() now polls a set of file descriptors registered with this function until one becomes readable or writable. This patch should allow the implementation of alternative AIO backends (via a thread pool or linux-aio) and AIO backends in non-traditional block devices (like NBD).

2008-09-15Use common objects for qemu-img and qemu-nbdaliguori
Right now, we sprinkle #if defined(QEMU_IMG) && defined(QEMU_NBD) all over the code. It's ugly and causes us to have to build multiple object files for linking against qemu and the tools. This patch introduces a new file, qemu-tool.c which contains enough for qemu-img, qemu-nbd, and QEMU to all share the same objects. This also required getting qemu-nbd to be a bit more Windows friendly. I also changed the Windows block-raw to use normal IO instead of overlapping IO since we don't actually do AIO yet on Windows. I changed the various #if 0's to #if WIN32_AIO to make it easier for someone to eventually fix AIO on Windows. After this patch, there are no longer any #ifdef's related to qemu-img and qemu-nbd.

2008-09-12Let snapshot work with protocolsaliguori
realpath will horribly mangle a protocol so avoid calling it if the backing file is a protocol. git-svn-id: svn://svn.savannah.nongnu.org/qemu/trunk@5200 c046a42c-6fe2-441c-8c8c-71466251a162
2008-09-11Only build compatfd when using AIO and make sure to always init AIOaliguori
OpenBSD doesn't use AIO so don't try to build compatfd when not using AIO. Also make sure to call qemu_aio_init() from bdrv_init. Everything that uses bdrv calls bdrv_init so it makes sense to init aio from there instead of in every single tool.

2008-09-10Use signalfd() to work around signal/select racealiguori
This patch introduces signalfd() to work around the signal/select race in checking for AIO completions. For platforms that don't support signalfd(), we emulate it with threads. There was a long discussion about this approach. I don't believe there are any fundamental problems with this approach and I believe eliminating the use of signals is a good thing. I've tested Windows and Linux using Windows and Linux guests. I've also checked for disk IO performance regressions.
