Commit fe0480d6 and friends added BDRV_REQ_NO_FALLBACK as a way to
avoid wasting time on a preliminary write-zero request that will later
be rewritten by actual data, if it is known that the write-zero
request will use a slow fallback; but in doing so, could not optimize
for NBD. The NBD specification is now considering an extension that
will allow passing on those semantics; this patch updates the new
protocol bits and 'qemu-nbd --list' output to recognize the bit, as
well as the new errno value possible when using the new flag; while
upcoming patches will improve the client to use the feature when
present, and the server to advertise support for it.
The NBD spec recommends (but not requires) that ENOTSUP be avoided for
all but failures of a fast zero (the only time it is mandatory to
avoid an ENOTSUP failure is when fast zero is supported but not
requested during write zeroes; the questionable use is for ENOTSUP to
other actions like a normal write request). However, clients that get
an unexpected ENOTSUP will either already be treating it the same as
EINVAL, or may appreciate the extra bit of information. We were
equally loose for returning EOVERFLOW in more situations than
recommended by the spec, so if it turns out to be a problem in
practice, a later patch can tighten handling for both error codes.

[eblake: tweak commit message, also handle EOPNOTSUPP]
When creating a read-only image, we are still advertising support for
TRIM and WRITE_ZEROES to the client, even though the client should not
be issuing those commands. But seeing this requires looking across
multiple functions:
All callers to nbd_export_new() passed a single flag based solely on
whether the export allows writes. Later, we then pass a constant set
of flags to nbd_negotiate_options() (namely, the set of flags which we
always support, at least for writable images), which is then further
dynamically modified with NBD_FLAG_SEND_DF based on client requests
for structured options. Finally, when processing NBD_OPT_EXPORT_NAME
or NBD_OPT_EXPORT_GO we bitwise-or the original caller's flag with the
runtime set of flags we've built up over several functions.
Let's refactor things to instead compute a baseline of flags as soon
as possible which gets shared between multiple clients, in
nbd_export_new(), and changing the signature for the callers to pass
in a simpler bool rather than having to figure out flags. We can then
get rid of the 'myflags' parameter to various functions, and instead
refer to client for everything we need (we still have to perform a
bitwise-OR for NBD_FLAG_SEND_DF during NBD_OPT_EXPORT_NAME and
NBD_OPT_EXPORT_GO, but it's easier to see what is being computed).
This lets us quit advertising senseless flags for read-only images, as
well as making the next patch for exposing FAST_ZERO support easier to
write.

[eblake: improve commit message, update iotest 223]
A server may have a reason to reject a request for structured replies,
beyond just not recognizing them as a valid request; similarly, it may
have a reason for rejecting a request for a meta context. It doesn't
hurt us to continue talking to such a server; otherwise 'qemu-nbd
--list' of such a server fails to display all available details about
the export.
Encountered when temporarily tweaking nbdkit to reply with
NBD_REP_ERR_POLICY. Present since structured reply support was first
added (commit d795299b reused starttls handling, but starttls is
different in that we can't fall back to other behavior on any error).
Note that for an unencrypted client trying to connect to a server that
requires encryption, this defers the point of failure to when we
finally execute a strict command (such as NBD_OPT_GO or NBD_OPT_LIST),
now that the intermediate NBD_OPT_STRUCTURED_REPLY does not diagnose
NBD_REP_ERR_TLS_REQD as fatal; but as the protocol eventually gets us
to a command where we can't continue onwards, the changed error
message doesn't cause any security concerns.

The NBD specification defines NBD_FLAG_CAN_MULTI_CONN, which can be
advertised when the server promises cache consistency between
simultaneous clients (basically, rules that determine what FUA and
flush from one client are able to guarantee for reads from another
client). When we don't permit simultaneous clients (such as qemu-nbd
without -e), the bit makes no sense; and for writable images, we
probably have a lot more work before we can declare that actions from
one client are cache-consistent with actions from another. But for
read-only images, where flush isn't changing any data, we might as
well advertise multi-conn support. What's more, advertisement of the
bit makes it easier for clients to determine if 'qemu-nbd -e' was in
use, where a second connection will succeed rather than hang until the
first client goes away.
This patch affects qemu as server in advertising the bit. We may want
to consider patches to qemu as client to attempt parallel connections
for higher throughput by spreading the load over those connections
when a server advertises multi-conn, but for now sticking to one
connection per nbd:// BDS is okay.

compliance problems, and commit b0245d64 changed one of the two TODO
comments to advertise a more accurate alignment. Time to fix the other

We've recently added traces for clients to flag server non-compliance;
let's do the same for servers to flag client non-compliance. According
to the spec, if the client requests NBD_INFO_BLOCK_SIZE, it is
promising to send all requests aligned to those boundaries. Of
course, if the client does not request NBD_INFO_BLOCK_SIZE, then it
made no promises so we shouldn't flag anything; and because we are
willing to handle clients that made no promises (the spec allows us to
use NBD_REP_ERR_BLOCK_SIZE_REQD if we had been unwilling), we already
have to handle unaligned requests (which the block layer already does
on our behalf). So even though the spec allows us to return EINVAL
for clients that promised to behave, it's easier to always answer
unaligned requests. Still, flagging non-compliance can be useful in
debugging a client that is trying to be maximally portable.
Qemu as client used to have one spot where it sent non-compliant
requests: if the server sends an unaligned reply to
NBD_CMD_BLOCK_STATUS, and the client was iterating over the entire
disk, the next request would start at that unaligned point; this was
fixed in commit a39286dd when the client was taught to work around
server non-compliance; but is equally fixed if the server is patched
to not send unaligned replies in the first place (yes, qemu 4.0 as
server still has few such bugs, although they will be patched in
4.1). Fortunately, I did not find any more spots where qemu as client
was non-compliant. I was able to test the patch by using the following
hack to convince qemu-io to run various unaligned commands, coupled
with serving 512-byte alignment by intentionally omitting '-f raw' on
the server while viewing server traces.

Both NBD_CMD_BLOCK_STATUS and structured NBD_CMD_READ will split their
reply according to bdrv_block_status() boundaries. If the block device
has a request_alignment smaller than 512, but we advertise a block
alignment of 512 to the client, then this can result in the server
reply violating client expectations by reporting a smaller region of
the export than what the client is permitted to address (although this
is less of an issue for qemu 4.0 clients, given recent client patches
to overlook our non-compliance at EOF). Since it's always better to
be strict in what we send, it is worth advertising the actual minimum
block limit rather than blindly rounding it up to 512.
Note that this patch is not foolproof - it is still possible to
provoke non-compliant server behavior using:
$ qemu-nbd --image-opts driver=blkdebug,align=512,image.driver=file,image.filename=/path/to/non-aligned-file
That is arguably a bug in the blkdebug driver (it should never pass
back block status smaller than its alignment, even if it has to make
multiple bdrv_get_status calls and determine the
least-common-denominator status among the group to return). It may
also be possible to observe issues with a backing layer with smaller
alignment than the active layer, although so far I have been unable to
write a reliable iotest for that scenario (but again, an issue like
that could be argued to be a bug in the block layer, or something
where we need a flag to bdrv_block_status() to state whether the
result must be aligned to the current layer's limits or can be
subdivided for accuracy when chasing backing files).
Anyways, as blkdebug is not normally used, and as this patch makes our
server more interoperable with qemu 3.1 clients, it is worth applying
now, even while we still work on a larger patch series for the 4.1
timeframe to have byte-accurate file lengths.
Note that the iotests output changes - for 223 and 233, we can see the
server's better granularity advertisement; and for 241, the three test
cases have the following effects:
- natural alignment: the server's smaller alignment is now advertised,
and the hole reported at EOF is now the right result; we've gotten rid
of the server's non-compliance
- forced server alignment: the server still advertises 512 bytes, but
still sends a mid-sector hole. This is still a server compliance bug,
which needs to be fixed in the block layer in a later patch; output
does not change because the client is already being tolerant of the
non-compliance
- forced client alignment: the server's smaller alignment means that
the client now sees the server's status change mid-sector without any
protocol violations, but the fact that the map shows an unaligned
mid-sector hole is evidence of the block layer problems with aligned
block status, to be fixed in a later patch

The NBD spec suggests that a server should never advertise a size
inconsistent with its minimum block alignment, as that tail is
effectively inaccessible to a compliant client obeying those block
constraints. Since we have a habit of rounding up rather than
truncating, to avoid losing the last few bytes of user input, and we
cannot access the tail when the server advertises bogus block sizing,
abort the connection to alert the server to fix their bug. And
rejecting such servers matches what we already did for a min_block
that was not a power of 2 or which was larger than max_block.
Does not impact either qemu (which always sends properly aligned
sizes) or nbdkit (which does not send minimum block requirements yet);
so this is mostly aimed at new NBD server implementations, and ensures
that the rest of our code can assume the size is aligned.

Currently any client which can complete the TLS handshake is able to use
the NBD server. The server admin can turn on the 'verify-peer' option
for the x509 creds to require the client to provide a x509 certificate.
This means the client will have to acquire a certificate from the CA
before they are permitted to use the NBD server. This is still a fairly
low bar to cross.
This adds a '--tls-authz OBJECT-ID' option to the qemu-nbd command which
takes the ID of a previously added 'QAuthZ' object instance. This will
be used to validate the client's x509 distinguished name. Clients
failing the authorization check will not be permitted to use the NBD

[eblake: rename macro to DEF_NBD_READ_N and formatting tweaks;
checkpatch has false positive complaint]
Signed-off-by: Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com>
Commit 3d068aff forgot to advertise available qemu: contexts
when the client requests a list with 0 queries. Furthermore,
3.0 shipped with a qemu-img hack of x-dirty-bitmap (commit
216ee365) that _silently_ acts as though the entire image is
clean if a requested bitmap is not present. Both bugs have
been recently fixed, so that a modern qemu server gives full
context output right away, and the client refuses a
connection if a requested x-dirty-bitmap was not found.
Still, it is likely that there will be users that have to
work with a mix of old and new qemu versions, depending on
which features get backported where, at which point being
able to rely on 'qemu-img --list' output to know for sure
whether a given NBD export has the desired dirty bitmap is
much nicer than blindly connecting and risking that the
entire image may appear clean. We can make our --list code
smart enough to work around buggy servers by tracking
whether we've seen any qemu: replies in the original 0-query
list; if not, repeat with a single query on "qemu:" (which
may still have no replies, but then we know for sure we
didn't trip up on the server bug).

We want to be able to detect whether a given qemu NBD server is
exposing the right export(s) and dirty bitmaps, at least for
regression testing. We could use 'nbd-client -l' from the upstream
NBD project to list exports, but it's annoying to rely on
out-of-tree binaries; furthermore, nbd-client doesn't necessarily
know about all of the qemu NBD extensions. Thus, we plan on adding
a new mode to qemu-nbd that merely sniffs all possible information
from the server during handshake phase, then disconnects and dumps
the information.
This patch continues the work of the previous patch, by adding the
ability to track the list of available meta contexts into
NBDExportInfo. It benefits from the recent refactoring patches
with a new nbd_list_meta_contexts() that reuses much of the same
framework as setting a meta context.
Note: a malicious server could exhaust memory of a client by feeding
an unending loop of contexts; perhaps we could place a limit on how
many we are willing to receive. But this is no different from our
earlier analysis on a server sending an unending list of exports,
and the death of a client due to memory exhaustion when the client
was going to exit soon anyways is not really a denial of service
attack.

This patch adds the low-level client code for grabbing the list
of exports. It benefits from the recent refactoring patches, in
order to share as much code as possible when it comes to doing
validation of server replies. The resulting information is stored
in an array of NBDExportInfo which has been expanded to any
description string, along with a convenience function for freeing
the list.
Note: a malicious server could exhaust memory of a client by feeding
an unending loop of exports; perhaps we should place a limit on how
many we are willing to receive. But note that a server could
reasonably be serving an export for every file in a large directory,
where an arbitrary limit in the client means we can't list anything
from such a server; the same happens if we just run until the client
fails to malloc() and thus dies by an abort(), where the limit is
no longer arbitrary but determined by available memory. Since the
client is already planning on being short-lived, it's hard to call
this a denial of service attack that would starve off other uses,
so it does not appear to be a security issue.

An upcoming patch will add the ability for qemu-nbd to list
the services provided by an NBD server. Share the common
code of the TLS handshake by splitting the initial exchange
into a separate function, leaving only the export handling
in the original function. Functionally, there should be no
change in behavior in this patch, although some of the code
motion may be difficult to follow due to indentation changes
(view with 'git diff -w' for a smaller changeset).
I considered an enum for the return code coordinating state
between the two functions, but in the end just settled with
ample comments.

Refactor the 'name' parameter of nbd_receive_negotiate() from
being a separate parameter into being part of the in-out 'info'.
This also spills over to a simplification of nbd_opt_go().
The main driver for this refactoring is that an upcoming patch
would like to add support to qemu-nbd to list information about
all exports available on a server, where the name(s) will be
provided by the server instead of the client. But another benefit
is that we can now allow the client to explicitly specify the
empty export name "" even when connecting to an oldstyle server
(even if qemu is no longer such a server after commit 7f7dfe2a).

Right now, nbd_receive_list() is only called by
nbd_receive_query_exports(), which in turn is only called if the
server lacks NBD_OPT_GO but has working option negotiation, and is
merely used as a quality-of-implementation trick since servers
can't give decent errors for NBD_OPT_EXPORT_NAME. However, servers
that lack NBD_OPT_GO are becoming increasingly rare (nbdkit was a
latecomer, in Aug 2018, but qemu has been such a server since commit
f37708f6 in July 2017 and released in 2.10), so it no longer makes
sense to micro-optimize that function for performance.
Furthermore, when debugging a server's implementation, tracing the
full reply (both names and descriptions) is useful, not to mention
that upcoming patches adding 'qemu-nbd --list' will want to collect
that data. And when you consider that a server can send an export
name up to the NBD protocol length limit of 4k; but our current
NBD_MAX_NAME_SIZE is only 256, we can't trace all valid server
names without more storage, but 4k is large enough that the heap
is better than the stack for long names.
Thus, I'm changing the division of labor, with nbd_receive_list()
now always malloc'ing a result on success (the malloc is bounded
by the fact that we reject servers with a reply length larger
than 32M), and moving the comparison to 'wantname' to the caller.
There is a minor change in behavior where a server with 0 exports
(an immediate NBD_REP_ACK reply) is now no longer distinguished
from a server without LIST support (NBD_REP_ERR_UNSUP); this
information could be preserved with a complication to the calling
contract to provide a bit more information, but I didn't see the
point. After all, the worst that can happen if our guess at a
match is wrong is that the caller will get a cryptic disconnect
when NBD_OPT_EXPORT_NAME fails (which is no different from what
would happen if we had not tried LIST), while treating an empty
list as immediate failure would prevent connecting to really old
servers that really did lack LIST. Besides, NBD servers with 0
exports are rare (qemu can do it when using QMP nbd-server-start
without nbd-server-add - but qemu understands NBD_OPT_GO and
thus won't tickle this change in behavior).
Fix the spelling of foundExport to match coding standards while
in the area.

Although our compile-time environment is set up so that we always
support long files with 64-bit off_t, we have no guarantee whether
off_t is the same type as int64_t. This requires casts when
printing values, and prevents us from directly using qemu_strtoi64()
(which will be done in the next patch). Let's just flip to uint64_t
where possible, and stick to int64_t for detecting failure of
blk_getlength(); we also keep the assertions added in the previous
patch that the resulting values fit in 63 bits. The overflow check
in nbd_co_receive_request() was already sane (request->from is
validated to fit in 63 bits, and request->len is 32 bits, so the
addition can't overflow 64 bits), but rewrite it in a form easier
to recognize as a typical overflow check.
Rename the variable 'description' to keep line lengths reasonable.

We only had two callers to nbd_export_new; qemu-nbd.c always
passed a valid offset/length pair (because it already checked
the file length, to ensure that offset was in bounds), while
blockdev-nbd.c always passed 0/-1. Then nbd_export_new reduces
the size to a multiple of BDRV_SECTOR_SIZE (can only happen
when offset is not sector-aligned, since bdrv_getlength()
currently rounds up) (someday, it would be nice to have
byte-accurate lengths - but not today).
However, I'm finding it easier to work with the code if we are
consistent on having both callers pass in a valid length, and
just assert that things are sane in nbd_export_new, meaning
that no negative values were passed, and that offset+size does
not exceed 63 bits (as that really is a fundamental limit to
later operations, whether we use off_t or uint64_t).

We only have one caller that wants to export a bitmap name,
which it does right after creation of the export. But there is
still a brief window of time where an NBD client could see the
export but not the dirty bitmap, which a robust client would
have to interpret as meaning the entire image should be treated
as dirty. Better is to eliminate the window entirely, by
inlining nbd_export_bitmap() into nbd_export_new(), and refusing
to create the bitmap in the first place if the requested bitmap
can't be located.
We also no longer need logic for setting a different bitmap
name compared to the bitmap being exported.

The existing NBD code had a weird split where nbd_export_new()
created an export but did not add it to the list of exported
names until a later nbd_export_set_name() came along and grabbed
a second reference on the object; later, the first call to
nbd_export_close() drops the second reference while removing
the export from the list. This is in part because the QAPI
NbdServerRemoveNode enum documents the possibility of adding a
mode where we could do a soft disconnect: preventing new clients,
but waiting for existing clients to gracefully quit, based on
the mode used when calling nbd_export_close().
But in spite of all that, note that we never change the name of
an NBD export while it is exposed, which means it is easier to
just inline the process of setting the name as part of creating
the export.
Inline the contents of nbd_export_set_name() and
nbd_export_set_description() into the two points in an export
lifecycle where they matter, then adjust both callers to pass
the name up front. Note that for creation, all callers pass a
non-NULL name, (passing NULL at creation was for old style
servers, but we removed support for that in commit 7f7dfe2a),
so we can add an assert and do things unconditionally; but for
cleanup, because of the dual nature of nbd_export_close(), we
still have to be careful to avoid use-after-free. Along the
way, add a comment reminding ourselves of the potential of
adding a middle mode disconnect.

Our initial implementation of x-nbd-server-add-bitmap put
in a restriction because of incremental backups: in that
usage, we are exporting one qcow2 file (the temporary overlay
target of a blockdev-backup sync:none job) and a dirty bitmap
owned by a second qcow2 file (the source of the
blockdev-backup, which is the backing file of the temporary).
While both qcow2 files are still writable (the target in
order to capture copy-on-write of old contents, and the
source in order to track live guest writes in the meantime),
the NBD client expects to see constant data, including the
dirty bitmap. An enabled bitmap in the source would be
modified by guest writes, which is at odds with the NBD
export being a read-only constant view, hence the initial
code choice of enforcing a disabled bitmap (the intent is
that the exposed bitmap was disabled in the same transaction
that started the blockdev-backup job, although we don't want
to track enough state to actually enforce that).
However, consider the case of a bitmap contained in a read-only
node (including when the bitmap is found in a backing layer of
the active image). Because the node can't be modified, the
bitmap won't change due to writes, regardless of whether it is
still enabled. Forbidding the export unless the bitmap is
disabled is awkward, paritcularly since we can't change the
bitmap to be disabled (because the node is read-only).
Alternatively, consider the case of live storage migration,
where management directs the destination to create a writable
NBD server, then performs a drive-mirror from the source to
the target, prior to doing the rest of the live migration.
Since storage migration can be time-consuming, it may be wise
to let the destination include a dirty bitmap to track which
portions it has already received, where even if the migration
is interrupted and restarted, the source can query the
destination block status in order to potentially minimize
re-sending data that has not changed in the meantime on a
second attempt. Such code has not been written, and might not
be trivial (after all, a cluster being marked dirty in the
bitmap does not necessarily guarantee it has the desired
contents), but it makes sense that letting an active dirty
bitmap be exposed and changing alongside writes may prove
useful in the future.
Solve both issues by gating the restriction against a
disabled bitmap to only happen when the caller has requested
a read-only export, and where the BDS that owns the bitmap
(whether or not it is the BDS handed to nbd_export_new() or
from its backing chain) is still writable. We could drop
the check altogether (if management apps are prepared to
deal with a changing bitmap even on a read-only image), but
for now keeping a check for the read-only case still stands
a chance of preventing management errors.
Update iotest 223 to show the looser behavior by leaving
a bitmap enabled the whole run; note that we have to tear
down and re-export a node when handling an error.
