block: delete cow block driver 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.

iotests: Specify explicit backing format where sensible There are many existing qcow2 images that specify a backing file but no format. This has been the source of CVEs in the past, but has become more prominent of a problem now that libvirt has switched to -blockdev. With older -drive, at least the probing was always done by qemu (so the only risk of a changed format between successive boots of a guest was if qemu was upgraded and probed differently). But with newer -blockdev, libvirt must specify a format; if libvirt guesses raw where the image was formatted, this results in data corruption visible to the guest; conversely, if libvirt guesses qcow2 where qemu was using raw, this can result in potential security holes, so modern libvirt instead refuses to use images without explicit backing format. The change in libvirt to reject images without explicit backing format has pointed out that a number of tools have been far too reliant on probing in the past. It's time to set a better example in our own iotests of properly setting this parameter. iotest calls to create, rebase, and convert are all impacted to some degree. It's a bit annoying that we are inconsistent on command line - while all of those accept -o backing_file=...,backing_fmt=..., the shortcuts are different: create and rebase have -b and -F, while convert has -B but no -F. (amend has no shortcuts, but the previous patch just deprecated the use of amend to change backing chains).
