2015-02-16qemu-io: Use BlockBackendMax Reitz
qemu-io should behave like a guest, therefore it should use BlockBackend to access the block layer. There are a couple of places where that is infeasible: First, the bdrv_debug_* functions could theoretically be mirrored in the BlockBackend, but since these are functions internal to the block layer, they should not be visible externally (qemu-io as a test tool is exempt from this). Second, bdrv_get_info() and bdrv_get_specific_info() work on a single BDS alone, therefore they should stay BDS-specific. Third, bdrv_is_allocated() mainly works on a single BDS as well. Some data may be passed through from the BDS's file (if sectors which are apparently allocated in the file are not really allocated there but just zero). [Fixed conflicts around block_acct_start() usage from Fam Zheng's "qemu-io: Account IO by aio_read and aio_write" commit. Use BlockBackend and blk_get_stats() instead of BlockDriverState. --Stefan] Signed-off-by: Max Reitz <mreitz@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com> Message-id: 1423162705-32065-14-git-send-email-mreitz@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>
2015-02-16qemu-io: Remove "growable" optionMax Reitz
Remove "growable" option from the "open" command and from the qemu-io command line. qemu-io is about to be converted to BlockBackend which will make sure that no request exceeds the image size, so the only way to keep "growable" would be to use BlockBackend if it is not given and to directly access the BDS if it is. qemu-io is a debugging tool, therefore removing a rarely used option will have only a very small impact, if any. There was only one qemu-iotest which used the option; since it is not critical, this patch just removes it.

2014-10-20block: Connect BlockBackend to BlockDriverStateMarkus Armbruster
Convenience function blk_new_with_bs() creates a BlockBackend with its BlockDriverState. Callers have to unref both. The commit after next will relieve them of the need to unref the BlockDriverState. Complication: due to the silly way drive_del works, we need a way to hide a BlockBackend, just like bdrv_make_anon(). To emphasize its "special" status, give the function a suitably off-putting name: blk_hide_on_behalf_of_do_drive_del(). Unfortunately, hiding turns the BlockBackend's name into the empty string. Can't avoid that without breaking the blk->bs->device_name equals blk->name invariant.

2014-10-20block: New BlockBackendMarkus Armbruster
A block device consists of a frontend device model and a backend. A block backend has a tree of block drivers doing the actual work. The tree is managed by the block layer. We currently use a single abstraction BlockDriverState both for tree nodes and the backend as a whole. Drawbacks: * Its API includes both stuff that makes sense only at the block backend level (root of the tree) and stuff that's only for use within the block layer. This makes the API bigger and more complex than necessary. Moreover, it's not obvious which interfaces are meant for device models, and which really aren't. * Since device models keep a reference to their backend, the backend object can't just be destroyed. But for media change, we need to replace the tree. Our solution is to make the BlockDriverState generic, with actual driver state in a separate object, pointed to by member opaque. That lets us replace the tree by deinitializing and reinitializing its root. This special need of the root makes the data structure awkward everywhere in the tree. The general plan is to separate the APIs into "block backend", for use by device models, monitor and whatever other code dealing with block backends, and "block driver", for use by the block layer and whatever other code (if any) dealing with trees and tree nodes. Code dealing with block backends, device models in particular, should become completely oblivious of BlockDriverState. This should let us clean up both APIs, and the tree data structures. This commit is a first step. It creates a minimal "block backend" API: type BlockBackend and functions to create, destroy and find them. BlockBackend objects are created and destroyed exactly when root BlockDriverState objects are created and destroyed. "Root" in the sense of "in bdrv_states". They're not yet used for anything; that'll come shortly. A root BlockDriverState is created with bdrv_new_root(), so where to create a BlockBackend is obvious. Where these roots get destroyed isn't always as obvious. It is obvious in qemu-img.c, qemu-io.c and qemu-nbd.c, and in error paths of blockdev_init(), blk_connect(). That leaves destruction of objects successfully created by blockdev_init() and blk_connect(). blockdev_init() is used only by drive_new() and qmp_blockdev_add(). Objects created by the latter are currently indestructible (see commit 48f364d "blockdev: Refuse to drive_del something added with blockdev-add" and commit 2d246f0 "blockdev: Introduce DriveInfo.enable_auto_del"). Objects created by the former get destroyed by drive_del(). Objects created by blk_connect() get destroyed by blk_disconnect(). BlockBackend is reference-counted. Its reference count never exceeds one so far, but that's going to change. In drive_del(), the BB's reference count is surely one now. The BDS's reference count is greater than one when something else is holding a reference, such as a block job. In this case, the BB is destroyed right away, but the BDS lives on until all extra references get dropped.

2014-09-22async: aio_context_new(): Handle event_notifier_init failureChrysostomos Nanakos
On a system with a low limit of open files the initialization of the event notifier could fail and QEMU exits without printing any error information to the user. The problem can be easily reproduced by enforcing a low limit of open files and start QEMU with enough I/O threads to hit this limit. The same problem raises, without the creation of I/O threads, while QEMU initializes the main event loop by enforcing an even lower limit of open files.

Commit 6db9560 split off the growable case so it can use bdrv_file_open() instead of bdrv_open() then. Growable BDSes become anonymous. Weird. Commit 2e40134 folded bdrv_file_open() back into bdrv_open() with new flag BDRV_O_PROTOCOL. We still have two bdrv_open() calls, and growable BDSes remain anonymous.

It is better to present homogeneous hardware independent of the storage technology that is chosen on the host, hence we make discard a host parameter; the user can choose whether to pass it down to the image format and protocol, or to ignore it. Using DISCARD with filesystems can cause very severe fragmentation, so it is left default-off for now. This can change later when we implement the "anchor" operation for efficient management of preallocated files. There is still one choice to make: whether DISCARD has an effect on the dirty bitmap or not. I chose yes, though there is a disadvantage: if the guest is buggy and issues discards for data that is in use, there will be no way to migrate storage for that guest without downgrading the machine type to an older one.
