2014-02-21block: Add reference parameter to bdrv_open()Max Reitz
Allow bdrv_open() to handle references to existing block devices just as bdrv_file_open() is already capable of. Signed-off-by: Max Reitz <mreitz@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com>
2014-02-21block: Change BDS parameter of bdrv_open() to **Max Reitz
Make bdrv_open() take a pointer to a BDS pointer, similarly to bdrv_file_open(). If a pointer to a NULL pointer is given, bdrv_open() will create a new BDS with an empty name; if the BDS pointer is not NULL, that existing BDS will be reused (in the same way as bdrv_open() already did).

2013-10-11blockdev: Remove IF_* check for read-only blockdev_initKevin Wolf
IF_NONE allows read-only, which makes forbidding it in this place for other types pretty much pointless. Instead, make sure that all devices for which the check would have errored out check in their init function that they don't get a read-only BlockDriverState. This catches even cases where IF_NONE and -device is used. Signed-off-by: Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com>
2013-10-10xen_disk: mark ioreq as mapped before unmapping in error caseMatthew Daley
Commit 4472beae modified the semantics of ioreq_{un,}map so that they are idempotent if called when they're not needed (ie., twice in a row). However, it neglected to handle the case where batch mapping is not being used (the default), and one of the grants fails to map. In this case, ioreq_unmap will be called to unwind and unmap any mappings already performed, but ioreq_unmap simply returns due to the aforementioned change (the ioreq has not already been marked as mapped). The frontend user can therefore force xen_disk to leak grant mappings, a per-domain limited resource. Fix by marking the ioreq as mapped before calling ioreq_unmap in this situation.

2013-09-12block: Error parameter for open functionsMax Reitz
Add an Error ** parameter to bdrv_open, bdrv_file_open and associated functions to allow more specific error messages. Signed-off-by: Max Reitz <mreitz@redhat.com>
2013-09-06xen_disk: simplify blk_disconnect with refcntFam Zheng
We call bdrv_attach_dev when initializing whether or not bs is created locally, so call bdrv_detach_dev and let the refcnt handle the lifecycle. Signed-off-by: Fam Zheng <famz@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>
2013-09-06block: make bdrv_delete() staticFam Zheng
Manage BlockDriverState lifecycle with refcnt, so bdrv_delete() is no longer public and should be called by bdrv_unref() if refcnt is decreased to 0. This is an identical change because effectively, there's no multiple reference of BDS now: no caller of bdrv_ref() yet, only bdrv_new() sets bs->refcnt to 1, so all bdrv_unref() now actually delete the BDS.

2013-07-29xen_disk: support "direct-io-safe" backend optionStefano Stabellini
Support backend option "direct-io-safe". This is documented as follows in the Xen backend specification: * direct-io-safe * Values: 0/1 (boolean) * Default Value: 0 * * The underlying storage is not affected by the direct IO memory * lifetime bug. See: * http://lists.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2012-12/msg01154.html * * Therefore this option gives the backend permission to use * O_DIRECT, notwithstanding that bug. * * That is, if this option is enabled, use of O_DIRECT is safe, * in circumstances where we would normally have avoided it as a * workaround for that bug. This option is not relevant for all * backends, and even not necessarily supported for those for * which it is relevant. A backend which knows that it is not * affected by the bug can ignore this option. * * This option doesn't require a backend to use O_DIRECT, so it * should not be used to try to control the caching behaviour. Also, BDRV_O_NATIVE_AIO is ignored if BDRV_O_NOCACHE, so clarify the default flags passed to the qemu block layer. The original proposal for a "cache" backend option has been dropped because it was believed too wide, especially considering that at the moment the backend doesn't have a way to tell the toolstack that it is capable of supporting it.

2013-06-04block: add block driver read only whitelistFam Zheng
We may want to include a driver in the whitelist for read only tasks such as diagnosing or exporting guest data (with libguestfs as a good example). This patch introduces a readonly whitelist option, and for backward compatibility, the old configure option --block-drv-whitelist is now an alias to rw whitelist. Drivers in readonly list is only permitted to open file readonly, and returns -ENOTSUP for RW opening. E.g. To include vmdk readonly, and others read+write: ./configure --target-list=x86_64-softmmu \ --block-drv-rw-whitelist=qcow2,raw,file,qed \ --block-drv-ro-whitelist=vmdk Signed-off-by: Fam Zheng <famz@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com>
