Lazy refcounts is a performance optimization for qcow2 that postpones
refcount metadata updates and instead marks the image dirty. In the
case of crash or power failure the image will be left in a dirty state
and repaired next time it is opened.
Reducing metadata I/O is important for cache=writethrough and
cache=directsync because these modes guarantee that data is on disk
after each write (hence we cannot take advantage of caching updates in
RAM). Refcount metadata is not needed for guest->file block address
translation and therefore does not need to be on-disk at the time of
write completion - this is the motivation behind the lazy refcount
optimization.
The lazy refcount optimization must be enabled at image creation time:
qemu-img create -f qcow2 -o compat=1.1,lazy_refcounts=on a.qcow2 10G
qemu-system-x86_64 -drive if=virtio,file=a.qcow2,cache=writethrough
Update qemu-iotests 031 and 036 since the extension header size changes
when we add feature bit table entries.

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.

The QED block driver already provides the functionality to not only
detect inconsistencies in images, but also fix them. However, this
functionality cannot be manually invoked with qemu-img, but the
check happens only automatically during bdrv_open().
This adds a -r switch to qemu-img check that allows manual invocation
of an image repair.

In snapshot mode, bdrv_open creates an empty temporary file without
checking for mkstemp or close failure, and ignoring the possibility
of a buffer overrun given a surprisingly long $TMPDIR.
Change the get_tmp_filename function to return int (not void),
so that it can inform its two callers of those failures.
Also avoid the risk of buffer overrun and do not ignore mkstemp
or close failure.
Update both callers (in block.c and vvfat.c) to propagate
temp-file-creation failure to their callers.
get_tmp_filename creates and closes an empty file, while its
callers later open that presumed-existing file with O_CREAT.
The problem was that a malicious user could provoke mkstemp failure
and race to create a symlink with the selected temporary file name,
thus causing the qemu process (usually root owned) to open through
the symlink, overwriting an attacker-chosen file.
This addresses CVE-2012-2652.

The limitation on not having I/O after cancellation cannot really be
kept. Even streaming has a very small race window where you could
cancel a job and have it report completion. If this window is hit,
bdrv_change_backing_file() will yield and possibly cause accesses to
dangling pointers etc.
So, let's just assume that we cannot know exactly what will happen
after the coroutine has set busy to false. We can set a very lax
condition:
- if we cancel the job, the coroutine won't set it to false again
(and hence will not call co_sleep_ns again).
- block_job_cancel_sync will wait for the coroutine to exit, which
pretty much ensures no race.
Instead, we track the coroutine that executes the job and put very
strict conditions on what to do while it is quiescent (busy = false).
First of all, the coroutine must never set busy = false while the job
has been cancelled. Second, the coroutine can be reentered arbitrarily
while it is quiescent, so you cannot really do anything but co_sleep_ns at
that time. This condition is obeyed by the block_job_sleep_ns function.

QED's opaque data includes a pointer back to the BlockDriverState.
This breaks when bdrv_append shuffles data between bs_new and bs_top.
To avoid this, add a "rebind" function that tells the driver about
the new relationship between the BlockDriverState and its opaque.
The patch also adds rebind to VVFAT for completeness, even though
it is not used with live snapshots.

Allow streaming operations to be started with an initial speed limit.
This eliminates the window of time between starting streaming and

The block job API uses -errno return values internally and we convert
these to Error in the QMP functions. This is ugly because the Error
should be created at the point where we still have all the relevant
information. More importantly, it is hard to add new error cases to
this case since we quickly run out of -errno values without losing
information.
Go ahead and use Error directly and don't convert later.

This adds the basic infrastructure to qcow2 to handle version 3 images.
It includes code to create v3 images, allow header updates for v3 images
and checks feature bits.
It still misses support for zero clusters, so this is not a fully
compliant implementation of v3 yet.

Streaming can issue I/O while qcow2_close is running. This causes the
L2 caches to become very confused or, alternatively, could cause a
segfault when the streaming coroutine is reentered after closing its
block device. The fix is to cancel streaming jobs when closing their
underlying device.
The cancellation must be synchronous, on the other hand qemu_aio_wait
will not restart a coroutine that is sleeping in co_sleep. So add
a flag saying whether streaming has in-flight I/O. If the busy flag
is false, the coroutine is quiescent and, when cancelled, will not
issue any new I/O.
This protects streaming against closing, but not against deleting.
We have a reference count protecting us against concurrent deletion,
but I still added an assertion to ensure nothing bad happens.

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.

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.

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.

The block layer does not know about pending requests. This information
is necessary for copy-on-read since overlapping requests must be
serialized to prevent races that corrupt the image.
The BlockDriverState gets a new tracked_request list field which
contains all pending requests. Each request is a BdrvTrackedRequest
record with sector_num, nb_sectors, and is_write fields.
Note that request tracking is always enabled but hopefully this extra
work is so small that it doesn't justify adding an enable/disable flag.

This patch adds the .bdrv_co_is_allocated() interface which is identical
to .bdrv_is_allocated() but runs in coroutine context. Running in
coroutine context implies that other coroutines might be performing I/O
at the same time. Therefore it must be safe to run while the following
BlockDriver functions are in-flight:
.bdrv_co_readv()
.bdrv_co_writev()
.bdrv_co_flush()
.bdrv_co_is_allocated()
The new .bdrv_co_is_allocated() interface is useful because it can be
used when a VM is running, whereas .bdrv_is_allocated() is a synchronous
interface that does not cope with parallel requests.

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.

qcow2 has a writeback metadata cache, so flushing a qcow2 image actually

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.
