Commit 6585493369819a48d34a86d57ec6b97cb5cd9bc0 added code to freeze
the backing chain from 'top' to 'base' for the duration of the
block-stream job.
The problem is that the freezing happens too late in stream_start():
during the bdrv_reopen_set_read_only() call earlier in that function
another job can jump in and remove the base image. If that happens we
have an invalid chain and QEMU crashes.
This patch puts the bdrv_freeze_backing_chain() call at the beginning
of the function.

Utilize the job_exit shim by not calling job_defer_to_main_loop, and
where applicable, converting the deferred callback into the job_exit
callback.
This converts backup, stream, create, and the unit tests all at once.
Most of these jobs do not see any changes to the order in which they
clean up their resources, except the test-blockjob-txn test, which
now puts down its bs before job_completed is called.
This is safe for the same reason the reordering in the mirror job is
safe, because job_completed no longer runs under two locks, making
the unref safe even if it causes a flush.

Presently we codify the entry point for a job as the "start" callback,
but a more apt name would be "run" to clarify the idea that when this
function returns we consider the job to have "finished," except for
any cleanup which occurs in separate callbacks later.
As part of this clarification, change the signature to include an error
object and a return code. The error ptr is not yet used, and the return
code while captured, will be overwritten by actions in the job_completed
function.

So far we relied on job->ret and strerror() to produce an error message
for failed jobs. Not surprisingly, this tends to result in completely
useless messages.
This adds a Job.error field that can contain an error string for a
failing job, and a parameter to job_completed() that sets the field. As
a default, if NULL is passed, we continue to use strerror(job->ret).
All existing callers are changed to pass NULL. They can be improved in
separate patches.

Move the defer_to_main_loop functionality from BlockJob to Job.
The code can be simplified because we can use job->aio_context in
job_defer_to_main_loop_bh() now, instead of having to access the
BlockDriverState.
Probably taking the data->aio_context lock in addition was already
unnecessary in the old code because we didn't actually make use of
anything protected by the old AioContext except getting the new
AioContext, in case it changed between scheduling the BH and running it.
But it's certainly unnecessary now that the BDS isn't accessed at all

We are gradually moving away from sector-based interfaces, towards
byte-based. In the common case, allocation is unlikely to ever use
values that are not naturally sector-aligned, but it is possible
that byte-based values will let us be more precise about allocation
at the end of an unaligned file that can do byte-based access.
Changing the signature of the function to use int64_t *pnum ensures
that the compiler enforces that all callers are updated. For now,
the io.c layer still assert()s that all callers are sector-aligned,
but that can be relaxed when a later patch implements byte-based
block status. Therefore, for the most part this patch is just the
addition of scaling at the callers followed by inverse scaling at
bdrv_is_allocated(). But some code, particularly stream_run(),
gets a lot simpler because it no longer has to mess with sectors.
Leave comments where we can further simplify by switching to
byte-based iterations, once later patches eliminate the need for
sector-aligned operations.
For ease of review, bdrv_is_allocated() was tackled separately.

stream_complete() skips the work of rewriting the backing file if
the job was cancelled, if data->reached_end is false, or if there
was an error detected (non-zero data->ret) during the streaming.
But note that in stream_run(), data->reached_end is only set if the
loop ran to completion, and data->ret is only 0 in two cases:
either the loop ran to completion (possibly by cancellation, but
stream_complete checks for that), or we took an early goto out
because there is no bs->backing. Thus, we can preserve the same
semantics without the use of reached_end, by merely checking for
bs->backing (and logically, if there was no backing file, streaming
is a no-op, so there is no backing file to rewrite).

Upcoming patches are going to switch to byte-based interfaces

The trace interface is low enough that there are no stability

even in cases like trace_backup_do_cow_skip() where we are not
changing the trace output. So make the tracing uniformly use

ratelimit_calculate_delay() previously reset the accounting every time
slice, no matter how much data had been processed before. This had (at
least) two consequences:
1. The minimum speed is rather large, e.g. 5 MiB/s for commit and stream.
Not sure if there are real-world use cases where this would be a
problem. Mirroring and backup over a slow link (e.g. DSL) would
come to mind, though.
2. Tests for block job operations (e.g. cancel) were rather racy
All block jobs currently use a time slice of 100ms. That's a
reasonable value to get smooth output during regular
operation. However this also meant that the state of block jobs
changed every 100ms, no matter how low the configured limit was. On
busy hosts, qemu often transferred additional chunks until the test
case had a chance to cancel the job.
Fix the block job rate limit code to delay for more than one time
slice to address the above issues. To make it easier to handle
oversized chunks we switch the semantics from returning a delay
_before_ the current request to a delay _after_ the current
request. If necessary, this delay consists of multiple time slice
units.
Since the mirror job sends multiple chunks in one go even if the rate
limit was exceeded in between, we need to keep track of the start of
the current time slice so we can correctly re-compute the delay for
the updated amount of data.
The minimum bandwidth now is 1 data unit per time slice. The block
jobs are currently passing the amount of data transferred in sectors
and using 100ms time slices, so this translates to 5120
bytes/second. With chunk sizes usually being O(512KiB), tests have
plenty of time (O(100s)) to operate on block jobs. The chance of a
race condition now is fairly remote, except possibly on insanely
loaded systems.
