2013-09-06block: make bdrv_delete() staticFam Zheng
Manage BlockDriverState lifecycle with refcnt, so bdrv_delete() is no longer public and should be called by bdrv_unref() if refcnt is decreased to 0. This is an identical change because effectively, there's no multiple reference of BDS now: no caller of bdrv_ref() yet, only bdrv_new() sets bs->refcnt to 1, so all bdrv_unref() now actually delete the BDS.

2013-08-22block: Produce zeros when protocols reading beyond end of fileMORITA Kazutaka
While Asias is debugging an issue creating qcow2 images on top of non-file protocols. It boils down to this example using NBD: $ qemu-io -c 'open -g nbd+unix:///?socket=/tmp/nbd.sock' -c 'read -v 0 512' Notice the open -g option to set bs->growable. This means you can read/write beyond end of file. Reading beyond end of file is supposed to produce zeroes. We rely on this behavior in qcow2_create2() during qcow2 image creation. We create a new file and then write the qcow2 header structure using bdrv_pwrite(). Since QCowHeader is not a multiple of sector size, block.c first uses bdrv_read() on the empty file to fetch the first sector (should be all zeroes). Here is the output from the qemu-io NBD example above: $ qemu-io -c 'open -g nbd+unix:///?socket=/tmp/nbd.sock' -c 'read -v 0 512' 00000000: ab ab ab ab ab ab ab ab ab ab ab ab ab ab ab ab ................ 00000010: ab ab ab ab ab ab ab ab ab ab ab ab ab ab ab ab ................ 00000020: ab ab ab ab ab ab ab ab ab ab ab ab ab ab ab ab ................ ... We are not zeroing the buffer! As a result qcow2 image creation on top of protocols is not guaranteed to work even when file creation is supported by the protocol.

2013-08-22block: Introduce bs->zero_beyond_eofAsias He
In 4146b46c42e0989cb5842e04d88ab6ccb1713a48 (block: Produce zeros when protocols reading beyond end of file), we break qemu-iotests ./check -qcow2 022. This happens because qcow2 temporarily sets ->growable = 1 for vmstate accesses (which are stored beyond the end of regular image data). We introduce the bs->zero_beyond_eof to allow qcow2_load_vmstate() to disable ->zero_beyond_eof temporarily in addition to enable ->growable. [Since the broken patch "block: Produce zeros when protocols reading beyond end of file" has not been merged yet, I have applied this fix *first* and will then apply the next patch to keep the tree bisectable. -- Stefan] Suggested-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Asias He <asias@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>
2013-08-19block: stop relying on io_flush() in bdrv_drain_all()Stefan Hajnoczi
If a block driver has no file descriptors to monitor but there are still active requests, it can return 1 from .io_flush(). This is used to spin during synchronous I/O. Stop relying on .io_flush() and instead check QLIST_EMPTY(&bs->tracked_requests) to decide whether there are active requests. This is the first step in removing .io_flush() so that event loops no longer need to have the concept of synchronous I/O. Eventually we may be able to kill synchronous I/O completely by running everything in a coroutine, but that is future work. Note this patch moves bs->throttled_reqs initialization to bdrv_new() so that bdrv_requests_pending(bs) can safely access it. In practice bs is g_malloc0() so the memory is already zeroed but it's safer to initialize the queue properly. We also need to fix up block/stream.c:close_unused_images() to prevent traversing a dangling pointer while it rearranges the backing file chain. This is necessary since the new bdrv_drain_all() traverses the backing file chain. Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>

The throttling code was segfaulting since commit 02ffb504485f0920cfc75a0982a602f824a9a4f4 because some qemu_co_queue_next caller does not run in a coroutine. qemu_co_queue_do_restart assume that the caller is a coroutinne.

One of the major reasons for doing something new for -blockdev and blockdev-add was that the old block layer code parses filenames instead of just taking them literally.

2013-07-05block: fix bdrv_flush() ordering in bdrv_close()Stefan Hajnoczi
Since 80ccf93b we flush the block device during close. The bdrv_drain_all() call should come before bdrv_flush() to ensure guest write requests have completed. Otherwise we may miss pending writes when flushing. Call bdrv_drain_all() again for safety as the final step after bdrv_flush(). This should not be necessary but we can be paranoid here in case bdrv_flush() left I/O pending.

2013-06-28block: change default of .has_zero_init to 0Peter Lieven
.has_zero_init defaults to 1 for all formats and protocols. this is a dangerous default since this means that all new added drivers need to manually overwrite it to 0 if they do not ensure that a device is zero initialized after bdrv_create(). if a driver needs to explicitly set this value to 1 its easier to verify the correctness in the review process. during review of the existing drivers it turned out that ssh and gluster had a wrong default of 1. both protocols support host_devices as backend which are not by default zero initialized. this wrong assumption will lead to possible corruption if qemu-img convert is used to write to such a backend. vpc and vmdk also defaulted to 1 altough they support fixed respectively flat extends. this has to be addresses in separate patches. both formats as well as the mentioned ssh and gluster are turned to the default of 0 with this patch for safety. a similar problem with the wrong default existed for iscsi most likely because the driver developer did oversee the default value of 1.

2013-06-24block: Always enable discard on the protocol levelKevin Wolf
Turning on discard options in qcow2 doesn't help a lot when the discard requests that it issues are thrown away by the raw-posix layer. This patch always enables discard functionality on the protocol level so that it's the image format's responsibility to send (or not) discard requests. Requests sent by the guest will be allowed or ignored by the top level BlockDriverState, which depends on the discard=... option like before. In particular, this means that even without specifying options, the qcow2 default of discarding deleted snapshots actually takes effect now, both for qemu and qemu-img.

2013-06-04block: drop bs_snapshots global variableStefan Hajnoczi
The bs_snapshots global variable points to the BlockDriverState which will be used to save vmstate. This is really a savevm.c concept but was moved into block.c:bdrv_snapshots() when it became clear that hotplug could result in a dangling pointer. While auditing the block layer's global state I came upon bs_snapshots and realized that a variable is not necessary here. Simply find the first BlockDriverState capable of internal snapshots each time this is needed. The behavior of bdrv_snapshots() is preserved across hotplug because new drives are always appended to the bdrv_states list. This means that calling the new find_vmstate_bs() function is idempotent - it returns the same BlockDriverState unless it was hot-unplugged.

2013-04-05block: fix I/O throttling accounting blind spotStefan Hajnoczi
I/O throttling relies on bdrv_acct_done() which is called when a request completes. This leaves a blind spot since we only charge for completed requests, not submitted requests. For example, if there is 1 operation remaining in this time slice the guest could submit 3 operations and they will all be submitted successfully since they don't actually get accounted for until they complete. Originally we probably thought this is okay since the requests will be accounted when the time slice is extended. In practice it causes fluctuations since the guest can exceed its I/O limit and it will be punished for this later on. Account for I/O upon submission so that I/O limits are enforced properly.

After this patch, using -drive with an empty file name continues to open the file if driver-specific options are used. If no driver-specific options are specified, the semantics stay as it was: It defines a drive without an inserted medium. In order to achieve this, bdrv_open() must be made safe to work with a NULL filename parameter. The assumption that is made is that only block drivers which implement bdrv_parse_filename() support using driver specific options and could therefore work without a filename. These drivers must make sure to cope with NULL in their implementation of .bdrv_open() (this is only NBD for now). For all other drivers, the block layer code will make sure to error out before calling into their code - they can't possibly work without a filename.
