It's not too surprising when a user specifies the backing file relative
to the current working directory instead of the top layer image. This
causes error when they differ. Though the error message has enough

Or, rather, force the open of a backing image if one was specified
for creation. Using a similar -unsafe option as rebase, allow qemu-img
to ignore the backing file validation if possible.
It may not always be possible, as in the existing case when a filesize
for the new image was not specified.
This is accomplished by shifting around the conditionals in
bdrv_img_create, such that a backing file is always opened unless we
provide BDRV_O_NO_BACKING. qemu-img is adjusted to pass this new flag
when -u is provided to create.
Sorry for the heinous looking diffstat, but it's mostly whitespace.

The '--image-opts' flag indicates whether the source filename
includes options. The target filename has to remain in the
plain filename format though, since it needs to be passed to
bdrv_create(). When using --skip-create though, it would be
possible to use image-opts syntax. This adds --target-image-opts
to indicate that the target filename includes options. Currently
this mandates use of the --skip-create flag too.

the convert process is currently completely implemented with sync operations.
That means it reads one buffer and then writes it. No parallelism and each sync
request takes as long as it takes until it is completed.
This can be a big performance hit when the convert process reads and writes
to devices which do not benefit from kernel readahead or pagecache.
In our environment we heavily have the following two use cases when using
qemu-img convert.
a) reading from NFS and writing to iSCSI for deploying templates
b) reading from iSCSI and writing to NFS for backups
In both processes we use libiscsi and libnfs so we have no kernel cache.
This patch changes the convert process to work with parallel running coroutines
which can significantly improve performance for network storage devices:
qemu-img (master)
nfs -> iscsi 22.8 secs
nfs -> ram 11.7 secs
ram -> iscsi 12.3 secs
qemu-img-async (8 coroutines, in-order write disabled)
nfs -> iscsi 11.0 secs
nfs -> ram 10.4 secs
ram -> iscsi 9.0 secs
This patches introduces 2 new cmdline parameters. The -m parameter to specify
the number of coroutines running in parallel (defaults to 8). And the -W parameter to
allow qemu-img to write to the target out of order rather than sequential. This improves
performance as the writes do not have to wait for each other to complete.

This patch removes support for the cow file format.
Normally we do not break backwards compatibility but in this case there
is no impact and it is the most logical option. Extraordinary claims
require extraordinary evidence so I will show why removing the cow block
driver is the right thing to do.
The cow file format is the disk image format for Usermode Linux, a way
of running a Linux system in userspace. The performance of UML was
never great and it was hacky, but it enjoyed some popularity before
hardware virtualization support became mainstream.
QEMU's block/cow.c is supposed to read this image file format.
Unfortunately the file format was underspecified:
1. Earlier Linux versions used the MAXPATHLEN constant for the backing
filename field. The value of MAXPATHLEN can change, so Linux
switched to a 4096 literal but QEMU has a 1024 literal.
2. Padding was not used on the header struct (both in the Linux kernel
and in QEMU) so the struct layout varied across architectures. In
particular, i386 and x86_64 were different due to int64_t alignment
differences. Linux now uses __attribute__((packed)), QEMU does not.
Therefore:
1. QEMU cow images do not conform to the Linux cow image file format.
2. cow images cannot be shared between different host architectures.
This means QEMU cow images are useless and QEMU has not had bug reports
from users actually hitting these issues.
Let's get rid of this thing, it serves no purpose and no one will be
affected.

Many qemu-img subcommands only read the source file(s) once. For these
use cases, a full write-back cache is unnecessary and mainly clutters
host cache memory. Though this is generally no concern as cache memory
is freely available and can be scaled by the host OS, it may become a
concern with thin provisioning.
For these cases, it makes sense to allow users to freely specify the
source cache mode (e.g. use no cache at all).
This commit adds a new switch (-T) for the qemu-img subcommands check,
compare, convert and rebase to specify the cache to be used for source
images (the backing file in case of rebase).

Add 'nocow' option so that users could have a chance to set NOCOW flag to
newly created files. It's useful on btrfs file system to enhance performance.
Btrfs has low performance when hosting VM images, even more when the guest
in those VM are also using btrfs as file system. One way to mitigate this bad
performance is to turn off COW attributes on VM files. Generally, there are
two ways to turn off NOCOW on btrfs: a) by mounting fs with nodatacow, then
all newly created files will be NOCOW. b) per file. Add the NOCOW file
attribute. It could only be done to empty or new files.
This patch tries the second way, according to the option, it could add NOCOW
per file.
For most block drivers, since the create file step is in raw-posix.c, so we
can do setting NOCOW flag ioctl in raw-posix.c only.
But there are some exceptions, like block/vpc.c and block/vdi.c, they are
creating file by calling qemu_open directly. For them, do the same setting
NOCOW flag ioctl work in them separately.

The qemu-img.texi / qemu-doc.texi files currently describe the
qcow2/qcow2 encryption thus
"Encryption uses the AES format which is very secure (128 bit
keys). Use a long password (16 characters) to get maximum
protection."
While AES is indeed a strong encryption system, the way that
QCow/QCow2 use it results in a poor/weak encryption system.
Due to the use of predictable IVs, based on the sector number
extended to 128 bits, it is vulnerable to chosen plaintext
attacks which can reveal the existence of encrypted data.
The direct use of the user passphrase as the encryption key
also leads to an inability to change the passphrase of an
image. If passphrase is ever compromised the image data will
all be vulnerable, since it cannot be re-encrypted. The admin
has to clone the image files with a new passphrase and then
use a program like shred to secure erase all the old files.
Recommend against any use of QCow/QCow2 encryption, directing
users to dm-crypt / LUKS which can meet modern cryptography
best practices.

In the case of the base image being smaller, it is resized to the
