If we reopen a BlockDriverState and there is an option that is present
in bs->options but missing from the new set of options then we have to
return an error unless the driver is able to reset it to its default
value.
This patch adds a new 'mutable_opts' field to BlockDriver. This is
a list of runtime options that can be modified during reopen. If an
option in this list is unspecified on reopen then it must be reset (or
return an error).

The bdrv_reopen_queue() function is used to create a queue with
the BDSs that are going to be reopened and their new options. Once
the queue is ready bdrv_reopen_multiple() is called to perform the
operation.
The original options from each one of the BDSs are kept, with the new
options passed to bdrv_reopen_queue() applied on top of them.
For "x-blockdev-reopen" we want a function that behaves much like
"blockdev-add". We want to ignore the previous set of options so that
only the ones actually specified by the user are applied, with the
rest having their default values.
One of the things that we need is a way to tell bdrv_reopen_queue()
whether we want to keep the old set of options or not, and that's what
this patch does. All current callers are setting this new parameter to
true and x-blockdev-reopen will set it to false.

Until now, with auto-read-only=on we tried to open the file read-write
first and if that failed, read-only was tried. This is actually not good
enough for libvirt, which gives QEMU SELinux permissions for read-write
only as soon as it actually intends to write to the image. So we need to
be able to switch between read-only and read-write at runtime.
This patch makes auto-read-only dynamic, i.e. the file is opened
read-only as long as no user of the node has requested write
permissions, but it is automatically reopened read-write as soon as the
first writer is attached. Conversely, if the last writer goes away, the
file is reopened read-only again.
bs->read_only is no longer set for auto-read-only=on files even if the
file descriptor is opened read-only because it will be transparently
upgraded as soon as a writer is attached. This changes the output of
qemu-iotests 232.

In order to be able to dynamically reopen the file read-only or
read-write, depending on the users that are attached, we need to be able
to switch to a different file descriptor during the permission change.
This interacts with reopen, which also creates a new file descriptor and
performs permission changes internally. In this case, the permission
change code must reuse the reopen file descriptor instead of creating a
third one.
In turn, reopen can drop its code to copy file locks to the new file
descriptor because that is now done when applying the new permissions.

There is no reason why we can take locks on the new file descriptor only
in raw_reopen_commit() where error handling isn't possible any more.
Instead, we can already do this in raw_reopen_prepare().

The glfs_*_async() functions do a callback once finished. This callback

Provide an option to force QEMU to always keep the external data file
consistent as a standalone read-only raw image.
At the moment, this means making sure that write_zeroes requests are

qcow2_alloc_compressed_cluster_offset() used to return the cluster
offset for success and 0 for error. This doesn't only conflict with 0 as
a valid host offset, but also loses the error code.

The cluster allocation code uses 0 as an invalid offset that is used in
case of errors or as "offset not yet determined". With external data
files, a host cluster offset of 0 becomes valid, though.
Define a constant INV_OFFSET (which is not cluster aligned and will
therefore never be a valid offset) that can be used for such purposes.
This removes the additional host_offset == 0 check that commit
ff52aab2df5 introduced; the confusion between an invalid offset and
(erroneous) allocation at offset 0 is removed with this change.

QEMU 2.12 (commit 1221fe6f636754ab5f2c1c87caa77633e9123622) introduced
a new setting called l2-cache-entry-size that allows making entries on
the qcow2 L2 cache smaller than the cluster size.
I have been performing several tests with different cluster and entry
sizes and all of them show that reducing the entry size (aka L2 slice)
consistently improves I/O performance, notably during random I/O (all
tests done with sequential I/O show similar results). This is to be
expected because loading and evicting an L2 slice is more expensive
the larger the slice is.
Here are some numbers on fully populated 40GB qcow2 images. The
rightmost column represents the maximum L2 cache size in both cases.
Cluster size = 64 KB
|-------------+--------------+--------------+--------------|
| | 1MB L2 cache | 3MB L2 cache | 5MB L2 cache |
|-------------+--------------+--------------+--------------|
| 4KB slices | 6545 IOPS | 12045 IOPS | 55680 IOPS |
| 16KB slices | 5177 IOPS | 9798 IOPS | 56278 IOPS |
| 64KB slices | 2718 IOPS | 5326 IOPS | 57355 IOPS |
|-------------+--------------+--------------+--------------|
Cluster size = 256 KB
|--------------+----------------+--------------+-----------------|
| | 512KB L2 cache | 1MB L2 cache | 1280KB L2 cache |
|--------------+----------------+--------------+-----------------|
| 4KB slices | 8539 IOPS | 21071 IOPS | 55417 IOPS |
| 64KB slices | 3598 IOPS | 9772 IOPS | 57687 IOPS |
| 256KB slices | 1415 IOPS | 4120 IOPS | 58001 IOPS |
|--------------+----------------+--------------+-----------------|
As can be seen in the numbers, the only exception to the rule is when
the cache is large enough to hold all L2 tables. This is also to be
expected because in this case no cache entry is ever evicted so
reducing its size doesn't bring any benefit.
This patch sets the default L2 cache entry size to 4KB except when the
cache is large enough for the whole disk.

Currently, nvme's bdrv_refresh_filename() is an exact copy of null's
implementation. However, for null, "null-co://" and "null-aio://" are
indeed valid filenames -- for nvme, they are not, as a device address is
still required.
The correct implementation should generate a filename of the form
"nvme://[PCI address]/[namespace]" (as the comment above
nvme_parse_filename() describes).

Currently, BlockDriver.bdrv_refresh_filename() is supposed to both
refresh the filename (BDS.exact_filename) and set BDS.full_open_options.
Now that we have generic code in the central bdrv_refresh_filename() for
creating BDS.full_open_options, we can drop the latter part from all
BlockDriver.bdrv_refresh_filename() implementations.
This also means that we can drop all of the existing default code for
this from the global bdrv_refresh_filename() itself.
Furthermore, we now have to call BlockDriver.bdrv_refresh_filename()
after having set BDS.full_open_options, because the block driver's
implementation should now be allowed to depend on BDS.full_open_options
being set correctly.
Finally, with this patch we can drop the @options parameter from
BlockDriver.bdrv_refresh_filename(); also, add a comment on this
function's purpose in block/block_int.h while touching its interface.
This completely obsoletes blklogwrite's implementation of
.bdrv_refresh_filename().

Some follow-up patches will rework the way bs->full_open_options is
refreshed in bdrv_refresh_filename(). The new implementation will remove
the need for the block drivers' bdrv_refresh_filename() implementations
to set bs->full_open_options; instead, it will be generic and use static
information from each block driver.
However, by implementing bdrv_gather_child_options(), block drivers will
still be able to override the way the full_open_options of their
children are incorporated into their own.
We need to implement this function for VMDK because we have to prevent
the generic implementation from gathering the options of all children:
It is not possible to specify options for the extents through the
runtime options.
For quorum, the child names that would be used by the generic
implementation and the ones that we actually (currently) want to use
differ. See quorum_gather_child_options() for more information.
Note that both of these are cases which are not ideal: In case of VMDK
it would probably be nice to be able to specify options for all extents.
In case of quorum, the current runtime option structure is simply broken
and needs to be fixed (but that is left for another patch).

This new field can be set by block drivers to list the runtime options
they accept that may influence the contents of the respective BDS. As of
a follow-up patch, this list will be used by the common
bdrv_refresh_filename() implementation to decide which options to put

to be created), thus freeing the drivers of having to implement that
logic themselves.
Additionally, this patch adds the field to all of the block drivers that

If the backing file is overridden, this most probably does change the
guest-visible data of a BDS. Therefore, we will need to consider this
in bdrv_refresh_filename().
To see whether it has been overridden, we might want to compare
bs->backing_file and bs->backing->bs->filename. However,
bs->backing_file is changed by bdrv_set_backing_hd() (which is just used
to change the backing child at runtime, without modifying the image
header), so bs->backing_file most of the time simply contains a copy of
bs->backing->bs->filename anyway, so it is useless for such a
comparison.
This patch adds an auto_backing_file BDS field which contains the
backing file path as indicated by the image header, which is not changed
by bdrv_set_backing_hd().
Because of bdrv_refresh_filename() magic, however, a BDS's filename may
differ from what has been specified during bdrv_open(). Then, the
comparison between bs->auto_backing_file and bs->backing->bs->filename
may fail even though bs->backing was opened from bs->auto_backing_file.
To mitigate this, we can copy the real BDS's filename (after the whole
bdrv_open() and bdrv_refresh_filename() process) into
bs->auto_backing_file, if we know the former has been opened based on
the latter. This is only possible if no options modifying the backing
file's behavior have been specified, though. To simplify things, this
patch only copies the filename from the backing file if no options have
been specified for it at all.
Furthermore, there are cases where an overlay is created by qemu which
already contains a BDS's filename (e.g. in blockdev-snapshot-sync). We
do not need to worry about updating the overlay's bs->auto_backing_file
there, because we actually wrote a post-bdrv_refresh_filename() filename
into the image header.
So all in all, there will be false negatives where (as of a future
patch) bdrv_refresh_filename() will assume that the backing file differs
from what was specified in the image header, even though it really does
not. However, these cases should be limited to where (1) the user
actually did override something in the backing chain (e.g. by specifying
options for the backing file), or (2) the user executed a QMP command to
change some node's backing file (e.g. change-backing-file or
block-commit with @backing-file given) where the given filename does not
happen to coincide with qemu's idea of the backing BDS's filename.
Then again, (1) really is limited to -drive. With -blockdev or
blockdev-add, you have to adhere to the schema, so a user cannot give
partial "unimportant" options (e.g. by just setting backing.node-name
and leaving the rest to the image header). Therefore, trying to fix
this would mean trying to fix something for -drive only.
To improve on (2), we would need a full infrastructure to "canonicalize"
an arbitrary filename (+ options), so it can be compared against
another. That seems a bit over the top, considering that filenames
nowadays are there mostly for the user's entertainment.

bdrv_refresh_filename() should invoke itself recursively on all
children, not just on file.
With that change, we can remove the manual invocations in blkverify,
quorum, commit, mirror, and blklogwrites.
