Rather than asserting that nbdflags is within range, just give
it the correct type to begin with :) nbdflags corresponds to
the per-export portion of NBD Protocol "transmission flags", which
is 16 bits in response to NBD_OPT_EXPORT_NAME and NBD_OPT_GO.
Furthermore, upstream NBD has never passed the global flags to
the kernel via ioctl(NBD_SET_FLAGS) (the ioctl was first
introduced in NBD 2.9.22; then a latent bug in NBD 3.1 actually
tried to OR the global flags with the transmission flags, with
the disaster that the addition of NBD_FLAG_NO_ZEROES in 3.9
caused all earlier NBD 3.x clients to treat every export as
read-only; NBD 3.10 and later intentionally clip things to 16
bits to pass only transmission flags). Qemu should follow suit,
since the current two global flags (NBD_FLAG_FIXED_NEWSTYLE
and NBD_FLAG_NO_ZEROES) have no impact on the kernel's behavior
during transmission.

when setting clusters as alloacted the boundaries have
to be expanded. As Paolo pointed out the calculation of
the number of clusters is wrong:
Suppose cluster_sectors is 2, sector_num = 1, nb_sectors = 6:
In the "mark allocated" case, you want to set 0..8, i.e.
cluster_num=0, nb_clusters=4.
0--.--2--.--4--.--6--.--8
<--|_________________|--> (<--> = expanded)
Instead you are setting nb_clusters=3, so that 6..8 is not marked.
0--.--2--.--4--.--6--.--8

The NBD layer was breaking up request at a limit of 2040 sectors
(just under 1M) to cater to old qemu-nbd. But the server limit
was raised to 32M in commit 2d8214885 to match the kernel, more
than three years ago; and the upstream NBD Protocol is proposing
documentation that without any explicit communication to state
otherwise, a client should be able to safely assume that a 32M
transaction will work. It is time to rely on the larger sizing,
and any downstream distro that cares about maximum
interoperability to older qemu-nbd servers can just tweak the
value of #define NBD_MAX_SECTORS.

Commit 5a7e7a0ba moved mirror_exit to a BH handler but didn't add any
protection against new requests that could sneak in just before the
BH is dispatched. For example (assuming a code base at that commit):
main_loop_wait # 1
os_host_main_loop_wait
g_main_context_dispatch
aio_ctx_dispatch
aio_dispatch
...
mirror_run
bdrv_drain
(a) block_job_defer_to_main_loop
qemu_iohandler_poll
virtio_queue_host_notifier_read
...
virtio_submit_multiwrite
(b) blk_aio_multiwrite
main_loop_wait # 2
<snip>
aio_dispatch
aio_bh_poll
(c) mirror_exit
At (a) we know the BDS has no pending request. However, the same
main_loop_wait call is going to dispatch iohandlers (EventNotifier
events), which may lead to a new I/O from guest. So the invariant is
already broken at (c). Data loss.
Commit f3926945c8 made iohandler to use aio API. The order of
virtio_queue_host_notifier_read and block_job_defer_to_main_loop within
a main_loop_wait becomes unpredictable, and even worse, if the host
notifier event arrives at the next main_loop_wait call, the
unpredictable order between mirror_exit and
virtio_queue_host_notifier_read is also a trouble. As shown below, this
commit made the bug easier to trigger:
- Bug case 1:
main_loop_wait # 1
os_host_main_loop_wait
g_main_context_dispatch
aio_ctx_dispatch (qemu_aio_context)
...
mirror_run
bdrv_drain
(a) block_job_defer_to_main_loop
aio_ctx_dispatch (iohandler_ctx)
virtio_queue_host_notifier_read
...
virtio_submit_multiwrite
(b) blk_aio_multiwrite
main_loop_wait # 2
...
aio_dispatch
aio_bh_poll
(c) mirror_exit
- Bug case 2:
main_loop_wait # 1
os_host_main_loop_wait
g_main_context_dispatch
aio_ctx_dispatch (qemu_aio_context)
...
mirror_run
bdrv_drain
(a) block_job_defer_to_main_loop
main_loop_wait # 2
...
aio_ctx_dispatch (iohandler_ctx)
virtio_queue_host_notifier_read
...
virtio_submit_multiwrite
(b) blk_aio_multiwrite
aio_dispatch
aio_bh_poll
(c) mirror_exit
In both cases, (b) breaks the invariant wanted by (a) and (c).
Until then, the request loss has been silent. Later, 3f09bfbc7be added
asserts at (c) to check the invariant (in
bdrv_replace_in_backing_chain), and Max reported an assertion failure
first visible there, by doing active committing while the guest is
running bonnie++.
2.5 added bdrv_drained_begin at (a) to protect the dataplane case from
similar problems, but we never realize the main loop bug until now.
As a bandage, this patch disables iohandler's external events
temporarily together with bs->ctx.

If the drive's dirty bitmap is dirtied while the mirror operation is
running, the cache of the iterator used by the mirror code may become
stale and not contain all dirty bits.
This only becomes an issue if we are looking for contiguously dirty
chunks on the drive. In that case, we can easily detect the discrepancy
and just refresh the iterator if one occurs.

mirror_iteration() is supposed to wait if the current chunk is subject
to a still in-flight mirroring operation. However, it mixed checking
this conflict situation with checking the dirty status of a chunk. A
simplification for the latter condition (the first chunk encountered is
always dirty) led to neglecting the former: We just skip the first chunk
and thus never test whether it conflicts with an in-flight operation.
To fix this, pull out the code which waits for in-flight operations on
the first chunk of the range to be mirrored to settle.

Upon receiving an I/O error after an fsync, by default gluster will
dump its cache. However, QEMU will retry the fsync, which is especially
useful when encountering errors such as ENOSPC when using the werror=stop
option. When using caching with gluster, however, the last written data
will be lost upon encountering ENOSPC. Using the write-behind-cache
xlator option of 'resync-failed-syncs-after-fsync' should cause gluster
to retain the cached data after a failed fsync, so that ENOSPC and other
transient errors are recoverable.
Unfortunately, we have no way of knowing if the
'resync-failed-syncs-after-fsync' xlator option is supported, so for now
close the fd and set the BDS driver to NULL upon fsync error.

The check on the max_table_size field not being larger than required is
valid, and in accordance with the VHD spec. However, there have been
VHD images encountered in the wild that have an out-of-spec max table
size that is technically too large.
There is no issue in allowing this larger table size, as we also
later verify that the computed size (used for the pagetable) is
large enough to fit all sectors. In addition, max_table_entries
is bounds checked against SIZE_MAX and INT_MAX.
Remove the strict check, so that we can accomodate these sorts of
images that are benignly out of spec.

Commit 57d6a428 broke blk_aio_write_zeroes() because in some write
functions in the call path don't have an explicit length argument but
reuse qiov->size instead. Which is great, except that write_zeroes
doesn't have a qiov, which this commit interprets as 0 bytes.
Consequently, blk_aio_write_zeroes() didn't effectively do anything.
This patch introduces an explicit acb->bytes in BlkAioEmAIOCB and uses
that instead of acb->rwco.size.
The synchronous version of the function is okay because it does pass a
qiov (with the right size and a NULL pointer as its base).

Using the nested aio_poll() in coroutine is a bad idea. This patch
replaces the aio_poll loop in bdrv_drain with a BH, if called in
coroutine.
For example, the bdrv_drain() in mirror.c can hang when a guest issued
request is pending on it in qemu_co_mutex_lock().
Mirror coroutine in this case has just finished a request, and the block
job is about to complete. It calls bdrv_drain() which waits for the
other coroutine to complete. The other coroutine is a scsi-disk request.
The deadlock happens when the latter is in turn pending on the former to
yield/terminate, in qemu_co_mutex_lock(). The state flow is as below
(assuming a qcow2 image):
mirror coroutine scsi-disk coroutine
-------------------------------------------------------------
do last write
qcow2:qemu_co_mutex_lock()
...
scsi disk read
tracked request begin
qcow2:qemu_co_mutex_lock.enter
qcow2:qemu_co_mutex_unlock()
bdrv_drain
while (has tracked request)
aio_poll()
In the scsi-disk coroutine, the qemu_co_mutex_lock() will never return
because the mirror coroutine is blocked in the aio_poll(blocking=true).
With this patch, the added qemu_coroutine_yield() allows the scsi-disk
coroutine to make progress as expected:
mirror coroutine scsi-disk coroutine
-------------------------------------------------------------
do last write
qcow2:qemu_co_mutex_lock()
...
scsi disk read
tracked request begin
qcow2:qemu_co_mutex_lock.enter
qcow2:qemu_co_mutex_unlock()

> schedule BH
> qemu_coroutine_yield()

Commit 7836857 introduced a memory leak due to invalid use of
Error vs. visit_type_end(). If visiting the intermediate
members fails, we clear the error and unconditionally use
visit_end_struct() on the same error object; but if that
cleanup succeeds, we then skip the qapi_free call.
Until a later patch adds visit_check_struct(), the only safe
approach is to use two separate error objects.

The NBD protocol does not clearly document what will happen
if a client sends NBD_CMD_FLAG_FUA on NBD_CMD_FLUSH.
Historically, both the qemu and upstream NBD servers silently
ignored that flag, but that feels a bit risky. Meanwhile, the
qemu NBD client unconditionally sends the flag (without even
bothering to check whether the caller cares; at least with
NBD_CMD_WRITE the client only sends FUA if requested by a
higher layer).
There is ongoing discussion on the NBD list to fix the
protocol documentation to require that the server MUST ignore
the flag (unless the kernel folks can better explain what FUA
means for a flush), but until those doc improvements land, the
current nbd.git master was recently changed to reject the flag
with EINVAL (see nbd commit ab22e082), which now makes it
impossible for a qemu client to use FLUSH with an upstream NBD
server.
We should not send FUA with flush unless the upstream protocol
documents what it will do, and even then, it should be something
that the caller can opt into, rather than being unconditional.

these block jobs don't go through BlockBackend for their I/O requests,
they aren't affected by this setting anyway but always get a writeback
mode, so that call can be removed.

The previous patches have successively made blk->enable_write_cache the
true source for the information whether a writethrough mode must be
implemented. The corresponding BDRV_O_CACHE_WB is only useless baggage
we're carrying around, so now's the time to remove it.
At the same time, we remove the 'cache.writeback' option parsing on the
BDS level as the only effect was setting the BDRV_O_CACHE_WB flag.
This change requires test cases that explicitly enabled the option to
drop it. Other than that and the change of the error message when
writethrough is enabled on the BDS level (from "Can't set writethrough
mode" to "doesn't support the option"), there should be no change in
behaviour.

Pass through the FUA flag to the lower layer so that the separate flush
can be saved in practically relevant cases where a (raw) format driver
sits on top of the protocol driver.

The NBD server already used to send a FUA flag when the writethrough
mode was set. This code was a remnant from the times where protocol
drivers actually had to implement writethrough modes. Since nowadays the
block layer sends flushes in writethrough mode and non-root nodes are
always writeback, this was mostly dead code - only mostly because if NBD
was configured to be used without a format, we sent _both_ FUA and an
explicit flush afterwards, which makes the code not technically dead,
but useless overhead.
This patch changes the code so that the block layer's FUA flag is
recognised and translated into a NBD FUA flag. The additional flush is
avoided now.

This replaces the existing hack in the iscsi driver that sent the FUA
bit in writethrough mode and ignored the following flush in order to
optimise the number of roundtrips (see commit 73b5394e).

This function will allow drivers to implement BDRV_REQ_FUA natively

Now that WCE is handled on the BlockBackend level, the flag is
meaningless for BDSes. As the schema requires us to fill the field,
we return an enabled write cache for them.
Note that this means that querying the BlockBackend name may return
writethrough as the cache information, whereas querying the node-name of
the root of that same BlockBackend will return writeback.
This may appear odd at first, but it actually makes sense because it
correctly repesents the layer that implements the WCE handling. This
becomes more apparent when you consider nodes that are the root node of
multiple BlockBackends, where each BB can have its own WCE setting.

Whether a write cache is used or not is a decision that concerns the
user (e.g. the guest device) rather than the backend. It was already
logically part of the BB level as bdrv_move_feature_fields() always kept
it on top of the BDS tree; with this patch, the core of it (the actual
flag and the additional flushes) is also implemented there.
Direct callers of bdrv_open() must pass BDRV_O_CACHE_WB now if bs
doesn't have a BlockBackend attached.

We don't want to silently ignore a flush error.
Also, there is little point in avoiding the flush for writethrough modes
and once WCE is moved to the BB layer, we definitely need the flush here
because bdrv_pwrite() won't involve one any more.

All callers of blk_new_open() either don't rely on the WCE bit set after
blk_new_open() because they explicitly set it anyway, or they pass
BDRV_O_CACHE_WB unconditionally.
This patch changes blk_new_open() so that it always enables writeback
mode and asserts that BDRV_O_CACHE_WB is clear. For those callers that
used to pass BDRV_O_CACHE_WB unconditionally, the flag is removed now.

This patch introduces block driver that implement recording
and replaying of block devices' operations.
All block completion operations are added to the queue.
Queue is flushed at checkpoints and information about processed requests
is recorded to the log. In replay phase the queue is matched with
events read from the log. Therefore block devices requests are processed
deterministically.

For a couple of releases we have been warning
Encrypted images are deprecated
Support for them will be removed in a future release.
You can use 'qemu-img convert' to convert your image to an unencrypted one.
This warning was issued by system emulators, qemu-img, qemu-nbd
and qemu-io. Such a broad warning was issued because the original
intention was to rip out all the code for dealing with encryption
inside the QEMU block layer APIs.
The new block encryption framework used for the LUKS driver does
not rely on the unloved block layer API for encryption keys,
instead using the QOM 'secret' object type. It is thus no longer
appropriate to warn about encryption unconditionally.
When the qcow/qcow2 drivers are converted to use the new encryption
framework too, it will be practical to keep AES-CBC support present
for use in qemu-img, qemu-io & qemu-nbd to allow for interoperability
with older QEMU versions and liberation of data from existing encrypted
qcow2 files.
This change moves the warning out of the generic block code and
into the qcow/qcow2 drivers. Further, the warning is set to only
appear when running the system emulators, since qemu-img, qemu-io,
qemu-nbd are expected to support qcow2 encryption long term now that
the maint burden has been eliminated.
