When adding an Error parameter, bdrv_replace_in_backing_chain() would
become nothing more than a wrapper around change_parent_backing_link().
So make the latter public, renamed as bdrv_replace_node(), and remove
bdrv_replace_in_backing_chain().
Most of the callers just remove a node from the graph that they just
inserted, so they can use &error_abort, but completion of a mirror job
with 'replaces' set can actually fail.

For blockdev-snapshot, external_snapshot_prepare() accepts an arbitrary
node reference at first and only checks later whether it already has a
backing file. Between those places, other errors can occur.
Therefore checking in external_snapshot_abort() whether state->new_bs
has a backing file is not sufficient to tell whether bdrv_append() was
already completed or not. Trying to undo the bdrv_append() when it
wasn't even executed is wrong.
Introduce a new boolean flag in the state to fix this.

Aborting on error in bdrv_append() isn't correct. This patch fixes it
and lets the callers handle failures.
Test case 085 needs a reference output update. This is caused by the
reversed order of bdrv_set_backing_hd() and change_parent_backing_link()
in bdrv_append(): When the backing file of the new node is set, the
parent nodes are still pointing to the old top, so the backing blocker
is now initialised with the node name rather than the BlockBackend name.

because libvirt doesn't really manage the node level yet, but future

This new option to blockdev-commit allows the client to set a node-name

Refactor backup_start as backup_job_create, which only creates the job,
but does not automatically start it. The old interface, 'backup_start',
is not kept in favor of limiting the number of nearly-identical interfaces
that would have to be edited to keep up with QAPI changes in the future.
Callers that wish to synchronously start the backup_block_job can
instead just call block_job_start immediately after calling
backup_job_create.
Transactions are updated to use the new interface, calling block_job_start
only during the .commit phase, which helps prevent race conditions where
jobs may finish before we even finish building the transaction. This may
happen, for instance, during empty block backup jobs.

When I/O limits are set for a block device, the name of the throttling
group is taken from the BlockBackend if the user doesn't specify one.
Commit efaa7c4eeb moved the naming of the BlockBackend in
blockdev_init() to the end of the function, after I/O limits are set.
The consequence is that the throttling group gets an empty name.

find_block_job() looks for a block backend with a specified name,
checks whether it has a block job and acquires its AioContext.
We want to identify jobs by their ID and not by the block backend
they're attached to, so this patch ignores the backends altogether and
gets the job directly. Apart from making the code simpler, this will
allow us to find block jobs once they start having user-specified IDs.
To ensure backward compatibility we keep ERROR_CLASS_DEVICE_NOT_ACTIVE
as the error class if the job doesn't exist. In subsequent patches
we'll also need to keep the device name as the default job ID if the
user doesn't specify a different one.

Making each output visitor provide its own output collection
function was the only remaining reason for exposing visitor
sub-types to the rest of the code base. Add a polymorphic
visit_complete() function which is a no-op for input visitors,
and which populates an opaque pointer for output visitors. For
maximum type-safety, also add a parameter to the output visitor
constructors with a type-correct version of the output pointer,
and assert that the two uses match.
This approach was considered superior to either passing the
output parameter only during construction (action at a distance
during visit_free() feels awkward) or only during visit_complete()
(defeating type safety makes it easier to use incorrectly).
Most callers were function-local, and therefore a mechanical
conversion; the testsuite was a bit trickier, but the previous
cleanup patch minimized the churn here.
The visit_complete() function may be called at most once; doing
so lets us use transfer semantics rather than duplication or
ref-count semantics to get the just-built output back to the
caller, even though it means our behavior is not idempotent.

Currently, we are trying to move the backing BDS from the source to the
target in bdrv_replace_in_backing_chain() which is called from
mirror_exit(). However, mirror_complete() already tries to open the
target's backing chain with a call to bdrv_open_backing_file().
First, we should only set the target's backing BDS once. Second, the
mirroring block job has a better idea of what to set it to than the
generic code in bdrv_replace_in_backing_chain() (in fact, the latter's
conditions on when to move the backing BDS from source to target are not
really correct).
Therefore, remove that code from bdrv_replace_in_backing_chain() and
leave it to mirror_complete().
Depending on what kind of mirroring is performed, we furthermore want to
use different strategies to open the target's backing chain:
- If blockdev-mirror is used, we can assume the user made sure that the
target already has the correct backing chain. In particular, we should
not try to open a backing file if the target does not have any yet.
- If drive-mirror with mode=absolute-paths is used, we can and should
reuse the already existing chain of nodes that the source BDS is in.
In case of sync=full, no backing BDS is required; with sync=top, we
just link the source's backing BDS to the target, and with sync=none,
we use the source BDS as the target's backing BDS.
We should not try to open these backing files anew because this would
lead to two BDSs existing per physical file in the backing chain, and
we would like to avoid such concurrent access.
- If drive-mirror with mode=existing is used, we have to use the
information provided in the physical image file which means opening
the target's backing chain completely anew, just as it has been done
already.
If the target's backing chain shares images with the source, this may
lead to multiple BDSs per physical image file. But since we cannot
reliably ascertain this case, there is nothing we can do about it.

As the patches to move I/O throttling to BlockBackend didn't make it in
time for the 2.6 release, but the release adds new ways of configuring
VMs whose behaviour would change once the move is done, we need to
outlaw such configurations temporarily.
The problem exists whenever a BDS has more users than just its BB, for
example it is used as a backing file for another node. (This wasn't
possible in 2.5 yet as we introduced node references to specify a
backing file only recently.) In these cases, the throttling would
apply to these other users now, but after moving throttling to the
BlockBackend the other users wouldn't be throttled any more.
This patch prevents making new references to a throttled node as well as
using monitor commands to throttle a node with multiple parents.
Compared to 2.5 this changes behaviour in some corner cases where
references were allowed before, like bs->file or Quorum children. It
seems reasonable to assume that users didn't use I/O throttling on such
low level nodes. With the upcoming move of throttling into BlockBackend,
such configurations won't be possible anyway.

Writethrough mode is going to become a BlockBackend feature rather than
a BDS one, so forbid it in places where we won't be able to support it
when the code finally matches the envisioned design.
We only allowed setting the cache mode of non-root nodes after the 2.5
release, so we're still free to make this change.
The target of block jobs is now always opened in a writeback mode
because it doesn't have a BlockBackend attached. This makes more sense
anyway because block jobs know when to flush. If the graph is modified
on job completion, the original cache mode moves to the new root, so
for the guest device writethough always stays enabled if it was
configured this way.

Ever since we first introduced bdrv_append() in commit 8802d1fd ('qapi:
Introduce blockdev-group-snapshot-sync command'), the copy-on-read flag
was moved to the new top layer when taking a snapshot. The only problem
is that it doesn't make a whole lot of sense.
The use case for manually enabled CoR is to avoid reading data twice
from a slow remote image, so we want to save it to a local overlay, say
an ISO image accessed via HTTP to a local qcow2 overlay. When taking a
snapshot, we end up with a backing chain like this:
http <- local.qcow2 <- snap_overlay.qcow2
There is no point in doing CoR from local.qcow2 into snap_overlay.qcow2,
we just want to keep copying data from the remote source into
local.qcow2.
The other use case of CoR is in the context of streaming, which isn't
very interesting for bdrv_move_feature_fields() because op blockers
prevent this combination.
This patch makes the copy-on-read flag stay on the image for which it
was originally set and prevents it from being propagated to the new
overlay. It is no longer intended to move CoR to the BlockBackend level.
In order for this to make sense, we also need to keep the respective
image read-write.
As a side effect of these changes, creating a live snapshot image (as
opposed to using an existing externally created one) on top of a COR
block device works now. It used to fail because it tried to open its
backing file both read-only and with COR.
