2012-07-17block: Geometry and translation hints are now useless, purge themMarkus Armbruster
There are two producers of these hints: drive_init() on behalf of -drive, and hd_geometry_guess(). The only consumer of the hint is hd_geometry_guess(). The callers of hd_geometry_guess() call it only when drive_init() didn't set the hints. Therefore, drive_init()'s hints are never used. Thus, hd_geometry_guess() only ever sees hints it produced itself in a prior call. Only the first call computes something, subsequent calls just repeat the first call's results. However, hd_geometry_guess() is never called more than once: the device models don't, and the block device is destroyed on unplug. Thus, dropping the repeat feature doesn't break anything now. If a block device wasn't destroyed on unplug and could be reused with a new device, then repeating old results would be wrong. Thus, dropping the repeat feature prevents future breakage. This renders the hints unused. Purge them from the block layer. Signed-off-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com>

2012-07-17fdc: Move floppy geometry guessing back from block.cMarkus Armbruster
Commit 5bbdbb46 moved it to block.c because "other geometry guessing functions already reside in block.c". Device-specific functionality should be kept in device code, not the block layer. Move it back. Disk geometry guessing is still in block.c. To be moved out in a later patch series. Bonus: the floppy type used in pc_cmos_init() now obviously matches the one in the FDrive. Before, we relied on bdrv_get_floppy_geometry_hint() picking the same type both in fd_revalidate() and in pc_cmos_init().

The QED block driver already provides the functionality to not only detect inconsistencies in images, but also fix them.

2012-04-05block: Add new BDRV_O_INCOMING flag to notice incoming live migrationBenoît Canet
From original patch with Patchwork-id: 31110 by Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@linux.vnet.ibm.com> "Add a flag to indicate that incoming migration is pending and care needs to be taken for data consistency. Block drivers should not modify the image file before incoming migration is complete since the migration source host is still using the image file." The rationale for not using bdrv->read_only is the following. "Unfortunately this is not possible because too many other places in QEMU test bdrv_is_read_only() and use it for their own evil purposes. For example, ide_init_drive() will error out because read-only harddisks are not supported. We're mixing guest and host side read-only concepts so this simpler alternative does not work."

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: 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.

2011-12-05block: convert qemu_aio_flush() calls to bdrv_drain_all()Stefan Hajnoczi
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. This patch introduces the bdrv_drain_all() API to wait for requests across all BlockDriverStates to complete. As a bonus we perform checks after qemu_aio_wait() to ensure that requests really have finished.

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: 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.

2011-10-11block: Keep track of devices' I/O statusLuiz Capitulino
This commit adds support to the BlockDriverState type to keep track of devices' I/O status. There are three possible status: BDRV_IOS_OK (no error), BDRV_IOS_ENOSPC (no space error) and BDRV_IOS_FAILED (any other error). The distinction between no space and other errors is important because a management application may want to watch for no space in order to extend the space assigned to the VM and put it to run again. Qemu devices supporting the I/O status feature have to enable it explicitly by calling bdrv_iostatus_enable() _and_ have to be configured to stop the VM on errors (ie. werror=stop|enospc or rerror=stop). In case of multiple errors being triggered in sequence only the first one is stored. The I/O status is always reset to BDRV_IOS_OK when the 'cont' command is issued. Next commits will add support to some devices and extend the query-block/info block commands to return the I/O status information.
