2013-12-06block: clean up bdrv_drain_all() throttling commentsStefan Hajnoczi
Since cc0681c45430a1f1a4c2d06e9499b7775afc9a18 ("block: Enable the new throttling code in the block layer.") bdrv_drain_all() no longer spins. The code used to look as follows: do { busy = qemu_aio_wait(); /* FIXME: We do not have timer support here, so this is effectively * a busy wait. */ QTAILQ_FOREACH(bs, &bdrv_states, list) { while (qemu_co_enter_next(&bs->throttled_reqs)) { busy = true; } } } while (busy); Note that throttle requests are kicked but I/O throttling limits are still in effect. The loop spins until the vm_clock time allows the request to make progress and complete. The new throttling code introduced bdrv_start_throttled_reqs(). This function not only kicks throttled requests but also temporarily disables throttling so requests can run. The outdated FIXME comment can be removed. Also drop the busy = true assignment since we overwrite it immediately afterwards. Reviewed-by: Alex Bligh <alex@alex.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>
2013-12-04block: Close backing file early in bdrv_img_createMax Reitz
Leaving the backing file open although it is not needed anymore can cause problems if it is opened through a block driver which allows exclusive access only and if the create function of the block driver used for the top image (the one being created) tries to close and reopen the image file (which will include opening the backing file a second time). In particular, this will happen with a backing file opened through qemu-nbd and using qcow2 as the top image file format (which reopens the image to flush it to disk). In addition, the BlockDriverState in bdrv_img_create() is used for the backing file only; it should therefore be made local to the respective block.

2013-12-03block: make bdrv_co_do_write_zeroes stricter in producing aligned requestsPaolo Bonzini
Right now, bdrv_co_do_write_zeroes will only try to align the beginning of the request. However, it is simpler for many formats to expect the block layer to separate both the head *and* the tail. This makes sure that the format's bdrv_co_write_zeroes function will be called with aligned sector_num and nb_sectors for the bulk of the request.

This way, block drivers that don't use a file name can be accessed with snapshot=on, for example: -drive file.driver=nbd,file.host=localhost,snapshot=on Which becomes internally something like: file.filename=/tmp/vl.AWQZCu,backing.file.driver=nbd,backing.file.host=localhost Signed-off-by: Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com>

2013-11-29block: per caller dirty bitmapFam Zheng
Previously a BlockDriverState has only one dirty bitmap, so only one caller (e.g. a block job) can keep track of writing. This changes the dirty bitmap to a list and creates a BdrvDirtyBitmap for each caller, the lifecycle is managed with these new functions: bdrv_create_dirty_bitmap bdrv_release_dirty_bitmap Where BdrvDirtyBitmap is a linked list wrapper structure of HBitmap. In place of bdrv_set_dirty_tracking, a BdrvDirtyBitmap pointer argument is added to these functions, since each caller has its own dirty bitmap: bdrv_get_dirty bdrv_dirty_iter_init bdrv_get_dirty_count bdrv_set_dirty and bdrv_reset_dirty prototypes are unchanged but will internally walk the list of all dirty bitmaps and set them one by one.

2013-10-29block: Avoid unecessary drv->bdrv_getlength() callsKevin Wolf
The block layer generally keeps the size of an image cached in bs->total_sectors so that it doesn't have to perform expensive operations to get the size whenever it needs it. This doesn't work however when using a backend that can change its size without qemu being aware of it, i.e. passthrough of removable media like CD-ROMs or floppy disks. For this reason, the caching is disabled when a removable device is used. It is obvious that checking whether the _guest_ device has removable media isn't the right thing to do when we want to know whether the size of the host backend can change. To make things worse, non-top-level BlockDriverStates never have any device attached, which makes qemu assume they are removable, so drv->bdrv_getlength() is always called on the protocol layer. In the case of raw-posix, this causes unnecessary lseek() system calls, which turned out to be rather expensive. This patch completely changes the logic and disables bs->total_sectors caching only for certain block driver types, for which a size change is expected: host_cdrom and host_floppy on POSIX, host_device on win32; also the raw format in case it sits on top of one of these protocols, but in the common case the nested bdrv_getlength() call on the protocol driver will use the cache again and avoid an expensive drv->bdrv_getlength() call.

Although BDRV_O_RDWR is unset for the backing files, BDRV_O_COPY_ON_READ is still passed on if copy-on-read was requested for the drive.

2013-10-28block: Don't copy backing file name on errorMax Reitz

The main intent of this patch is to consolidate the whitelist checks to a single point in the code instead of spreading it everywhere. This adds a nicer error message for read-only whitelisting, too, in places where it was still missing. The patch also contains a bonus bug fix: By finding the format first in bdrv_open() and then independently checking against the whitelist only later, we avoid the case that use of a non-whitelisted format results in probing rather than an error message.
