2016-02-02block: Add "file" output parameter to block status query functionsFam Zheng
The added parameter can be used to return the BDS pointer which the valid offset is referring to. Its value should be ignored unless BDRV_BLOCK_OFFSET_VALID in ret is set. Until block drivers fill in the right value, let's clear it explicitly right before calling .bdrv_get_block_status. The "bs->file" condition in bdrv_co_get_block_status is kept now to keep iotest case 102 passing, and will be fixed once all drivers return the right file pointer.

Instead of covering only the state of images on the migration destination before the migration is completed, the flag will also cover the state of images on the migration source after completion.

The assertion problem was noticed in 06c3916b35a, but it wasn't completely fixed, because even though the req is not marked as serialising, it still gets serialised by wait_serialising_requests against other serialising requests, which could lead to the same assertion failure.

2015-11-12block: Introduce BlockDriver.bdrv_drain callbackFam Zheng
Drivers can have internal request sources that generate IO, like the need_check_timer in QED. Since we want quiesced periods that contain nested event loops in block layer, we need to have a way to disable such event sources. Block drivers must implement the "bdrv_drain" callback if it has any internal sources that can generate I/O activity, like a timer or a worker thread (even in a library) that can schedule QEMUBH in an asynchronous callback. Update the comments of bdrv_drain and bdrv_drained_begin accordingly. Like bdrv_requests_pending(), we should consider all the children of bs. Before, the while loop just works, as bdrv_requests_pending() already tracks its children; now we mustn't miss the callback, so recurse down explicitly.

2015-11-12block: Emulate bdrv_ioctl with bdrv_aio_ioctl and track bothFam Zheng
Currently all drivers that support .bdrv_aio_ioctl also implement .bdrv_ioctl redundantly. To track ioctl requests in block layer it is easier if we unify the two paths, because we'll need to run it in a coroutine, as required by tracked_request_begin. While we're at it, use .bdrv_aio_ioctl plus aio_poll() to emulate bdrv_ioctl().

2015-10-23block: Remove wr_highest_sector from BlockAcctStatsMax Reitz
BlockAcctStats contains statistics about the data transferred from and to the device; wr_highest_sector does not fit in with the rest. Furthermore, those statistics are supposed to be specific for a certain device and not necessarily for a BDS (see the comment above bdrv_get_stats()); on the other hand, wr_highest_sector may be a rather important information to know for each BDS. When BlockAcctStats is finally removed from the BDS, we will want to keep wr_highest_sector in the BDS. Finally, wr_highest_sector is renamed to wr_highest_offset and given the appropriate meaning. Externally, it is represented as an offset so there is no point in doing something different internally. Its definition is changed to match that in qapi/block-core.json which is "the offset after the greatest byte written to". Doing so should not cause any harm since if external programs tried to calculate the volume usage by (wr_highest_offset + 512) / volume_size, after this patch they will just assume the volume to be full slightly earlier than before.

Unsetting dirty globally with discard is not very correct. The discard may zero out sectors (depending on can_write_zeroes_with_unmap), we should replicate this change to destination side to make sure that the guest sees the same data.

2015-06-23Fix migration in case of scsi-genericDimitris Aragiorgis
During migration, QEMU uses fsync()/fdatasync() on the open file descriptor for read-write block devices to flush data just before stopping the VM. However, fsync() on a scsi-generic device returns -EINVAL which causes the migration to fail. This patch skips flushing data in case of an SG device, since submitting SCSI commands directly via an SG character device (e.g. /dev/sg0) bypasses the page cache completely, anyway. Note that fsync() not only flushes the page cache but also the disk cache. The scsi-generic device never sends flushes, and for migration it assumes that the same SCSI device is used by the destination host, so it does not issue any SCSI SYNCHRONIZE CACHE (10) command. Finally, remove the bdrv_is_sg() test from iscsi_co_flush() since this is now redundant (we flush the underlying protocol at the end of bdrv_co_flush() which, with this patch, we never reach).

After the commit 9b536adc ("block: acquire AioContext in bdrv_drain_all()") the aio_poll() function got called for every BlockDriverState, in assumption that every device may have its own AioContext.

2015-05-22block: align bounce buffers to pageDenis V. Lunev
The following sequence int fd = open(argv[1], O_RDWR | O_CREAT | O_DIRECT, 0644); for (i = 0; i < 100000; i++) write(fd, buf, 4096); performs 5% better if buf is aligned to 4096 bytes. The difference is quite reliable. On the other hand we do not want at the moment to enforce bounce buffering if guest request is aligned to 512 bytes. The patch changes default bounce buffer optimal alignment to MAX(page size, 4k). 4k is chosen as maximal known sector size on real HDD. The justification of the performance improve is quite interesting. From the kernel point of view each request to the disk was split by two. This could be seen by blktrace like this: 9,0 11 1 0.000000000 11151 Q WS 312737792 + 1023 [qemu-img] 9,0 11 2 0.000007938 11151 Q WS 312738815 + 8 [qemu-img] 9,0 11 3 0.000030735 11151 Q WS 312738823 + 1016 [qemu-img] 9,0 11 4 0.000032482 11151 Q WS 312739839 + 8 [qemu-img] 9,0 11 5 0.000041379 11151 Q WS 312739847 + 1016 [qemu-img] 9,0 11 6 0.000042818 11151 Q WS 312740863 + 8 [qemu-img] 9,0 11 7 0.000051236 11151 Q WS 312740871 + 1017 [qemu-img] 9,0 5 1 0.169071519 11151 Q WS 312741888 + 1023 [qemu-img] After the patch the pattern becomes normal: 9,0 6 1 0.000000000 12422 Q WS 314834944 + 1024 [qemu-img] 9,0 6 2 0.000038527 12422 Q WS 314835968 + 1024 [qemu-img] 9,0 6 3 0.000072849 12422 Q WS 314836992 + 1024 [qemu-img] 9,0 6 4 0.000106276 12422 Q WS 314838016 + 1024 [qemu-img] and the amount of requests sent to disk (could be calculated counting number of lines in the output of blktrace) is reduced about 2 times.

2015-04-28block: move I/O request processing to block/io.cStefan Hajnoczi
The block.c file has grown to over 6000 lines. It is time to split this file so there are fewer conflicts and the code is easier to maintain. Extract I/O request processing code: * Read * Write * Zero writes and making the image empty * Flush * Discard * ioctl * Tracked requests and queuing * Throttling and copy-on-read * Block status and allocated functions * Refreshing block limits * Reading/writing vmstate * qemu_blockalign() and friends The patch simply moves code from block.c into block/io.c.
