Block jobs will run in the BlockDriverState's AioContext, which may not
always be the QEMU main loop.
There are some block layer APIs that are either not thread-safe or risk
lock ordering problems. This includes bdrv_unref(), bdrv_close(), and
anything that calls bdrv_drain_all().
The block_job_defer_to_main_loop() API allows a block job to schedule a
function to run in the main loop with the BlockDriverState AioContext
held.
This function will be used to perform cleanup and backing chain
manipulations in block jobs.

Depending on the changed options and the image format,
bdrv_amend_options() may take a significant amount of time. In these
cases, a way to be informed about the operation's status is desirable.
Since the operation is rather complex and may fundamentally change the
image, implementing it as AIO or a coroutine does not seem feasible. On
the other hand, implementing it as a block job would be significantly
more difficult than a simple callback and would not add benefits other
than progress report to the amending operation, because it should not
actually be run as a block job at all.
A callback may not be very pretty, but it's very easy to implement and
perfectly fits its purpose here.

bdrv_make_empty() is currently only called if the current image
represents an external snapshot that has been committed to its base
image; it is therefore unlikely to have internal snapshots. In this
case, bdrv_make_empty() can be greatly sped up by emptying the L1 and
refcount table (while having the dirty flag set, which only works for
compat=1.1) and creating a trivial refcount structure.
If there are snapshots or for compat=0.10, fall back to the simple
implementation (discard all clusters).

The plan is to add new accounting metrics (latency, invalid requests, failed

Moreover the long term plan is to have statistics in each of the BDS of the graph

So we need to decouple the statistic code from BlockDriverState.

So far, aio_poll's scheme was dispatch/poll/dispatch, where
the first dispatch phase was used only in the GSource case in
order to avoid a blocking poll. Earlier patches changed it to
dispatch/prepare/poll/dispatch, where prepare is aio_compute_timeout.
By making aio_dispatch public, we can remove the first dispatch
phase altogether, so that both aio_poll and the GSource use the same
prepare/poll/dispatch scheme.
This patch breaks the invariant that aio_poll(..., true) will not block
the first time it returns false. This used to be fundamental for
qemu_aio_flush's implementation as "while (qemu_aio_wait()) {}" but
no code in QEMU relies on this invariant anymore. The return value
of aio_poll() is now comparable with that of g_main_context_iteration.

Right now, QEMU invokes aio_bh_poll before the "poll" phase
of aio_poll. It is simpler to do it afterwards and skip the
"poll" phase altogether when the OS-dependent parts of AioContext
are invoked from GSource. This way, AioContext behaves more
similarly when used as a GSource vs. when used as stand-alone.
As a start, take bottom halves into account when computing the
poll timeout. If a bottom half is ready, do a non-blocking
poll. As a side effect, this makes idle bottom halves work
with aio_poll; an improvement, but not really an important
one since they are deprecated.

Some block devices may not have a filename in their BDS; and for some,

If a filename exists or a block driver is able to reconstruct a valid
filename (which is placed in BDS.exact_filename), this can directly be
used.
If no filename can be constructed, we can still construct an options
QDict which is then converted to a JSON object and prefixed with the
"json:" pseudo protocol prefix. The QDict is placed in
BDS.full_open_options.
For most block drivers, this process can be done automatically; those

in total_sectors.
* bdrv_getlength() converts total_sectors back to bytes (now rounded
up to a multiple of the sector size).
* Callers wanting sectors rather bytes convert it right back.
Example: bdrv_get_geometry().
bdrv_nb_sectors() provides a way to omit the last two conversions.
It's exactly bdrv_getlength() with the conversion to bytes omitted.
It's functionally like bdrv_get_geometry() without its odd error

Currently, whenever aio_poll(ctx, true) has completed all pending
work it returns true *and* the next call to aio_poll(ctx, true)
will not block.
This invariant has its roots in qemu_aio_flush()'s implementation
as "while (qemu_aio_wait()) {}". However, qemu_aio_flush() does
not exist anymore and bdrv_drain_all() is implemented differently;
and this invariant is complicated to maintain and subtly different
from the return value of GMainLoop's g_main_context_iteration.
All calls to aio_poll(ctx, true) except one are guarded by a
while() loop checking for a request to be incomplete, or a
BlockDriverState to be idle. The one remaining call (in
iothread.c) uses this to delay the aio_context_release/acquire
pair until the AioContext is quiescent, however:
- we can do the same just by using non-blocking aio_poll,
similar to how vl.c invokes main_loop_wait
- it is buggy, because it does not ensure that the AioContext
is released between an aio_notify and the next time the
iothread goes to sleep. This leads to hangs when stopping
the dataplane thread.
In the end, these semantics are a bad match for the current
users of AioContext. So modify that one exception in iothread.c,
which also fixes the hangs, as well as the testcase so that
it use the same idiom as the actual QEMU code.

In many cases, the call to event_notifier_set in aio_notify is unnecessary.
In particular, if we are executing aio_dispatch, or if aio_poll is not
blocking, we know that we will soon get to the next loop iteration (if
necessary); the thread that hosts the AioContext's event loop does not
need any nudging.
The patch includes a Promela formal model that shows that this really
works and does not need any further complication such as generation
counts. It needs a memory barrier though.
The generation counts are not needed because any change to
ctx->dispatching after the memory barrier is okay for aio_notify.
If it changes from zero to one, it is the right thing to skip
event_notifier_set. If it changes from one to zero, the
event_notifier_set is unnecessary but harmless.

On some image chains, QEMU may not always be able to resolve the
filenames properly, when updating the backing file of an image
after a block commit.
For instance, certain relative pathnames may fail, or drives may
have been specified originally by file descriptor (e.g. /dev/fd/???),
or a relative protocol pathname may have been used.
In these instances, QEMU may lack the information to be able to make
the correct choice, but the user or management layer most likely does
have that knowledge.
With this extension to the block-commit api, the user is able to change
the backing file of the overlay image as part of the block-commit
operation.
This allows the change to be 'safe', in the sense that if the attempt
to write the overlay image metadata fails, then the block-commit
operation returns failure, without disrupting the guest.
If the commit top is the active layer, then specifying the backing
file string will be treated as an error (there is no overlay image
to modify in that case).
If a backing file string is not specified in the command, the backing
file string to use is determined in the same manner as it was
previously.

Add 'nocow' option so that users could have a chance to set NOCOW flag to

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.

When failure occurs, 'ret' need be set, or may return 0 to indicate
success. Previously, an error was set in errp, but 0 was returned
anyway. So let bdrv_append_temp_snapshot() return an error code and
use that for the bdrv_open() return value.
Also, error_propagate() need be called only one time within a function.

Up until now all BlockDriverState instances have used the QEMU main loop
for fd handlers, timers, and BHs. This is not scalable on SMP guests
and hosts so we need to move to a model with multiple event loops on
different host CPUs.
bdrv_set_aio_context() assigns the AioContext event loop to use for a
particular BlockDriverState. It first detaches the entire
BlockDriverState graph from the current AioContext and then attaches to
the new AioContext.
This function will be used by virtio-blk data-plane to assign a
BlockDriverState to its IOThread AioContext. Make
bdrv_aio_set_context() public since data-plane should not include
block_int.h.

This drops BlockDriverState.in_use with op_blockers:
- Call bdrv_op_block_all in place of bdrv_set_in_use(bs, 1).
- Call bdrv_op_unblock_all in place of bdrv_set_in_use(bs, 0).
- Check bdrv_op_is_blocked() in place of bdrv_in_use(bs).
The specific types are used, e.g. in place of starting block backup,
bdrv_op_is_blocked(bs, BLOCK_OP_TYPE_BACKUP, ...).
There is one exception in block_job_create, where
bdrv_op_blocker_is_empty() is used, because we don't know the operation
type here. This doesn't matter because in a few commits away we will drop
the check and move it to callers that _do_ know the type.
- Check bdrv_op_blocker_is_empty() in place of assert(!bs->in_use).
Note: there is only bdrv_op_block_all and bdrv_op_unblock_all callers at
this moment. So although the checks are specific to op types, this
changes can still be seen as identical logic with previously with
in_use. The difference is error message are improved because of blocker

BlockDriverState.op_blockers is an array of lists with BLOCK_OP_TYPE_MAX
elements. Each list is a list of blockers of an operation type
(BlockOpType), that marks this BDS as currently blocked for a certain
type of operation with reason errors stored in the list. The rule of
usage is:
* BDS user who wants to take an operation should check if there's any
blocker of the type with bdrv_op_is_blocked().
* BDS user who wants to block certain types of operation, should call
bdrv_op_block (or bdrv_op_block_all to block all types of operations,
which is similar to the existing bdrv_set_in_use()).
* A blocker is only referenced by op_blockers, so the lifecycle is
managed by caller, and shouldn't be lost until unblock, so typically
a caller does these:
- Allocate a blocker with error_setg or similar, call bdrv_op_block()
to block some operations.
- Hold the blocker, do his job.
- Unblock operations that it blocked, with the same reason pointer
passed to bdrv_op_unblock().
- Release the blocker with error_free().

The immediately visible effect of this patch is that it fixes committing
a temporary snapshot to its backing file. Previously, it would fail with
a "permission denied" error because bdrv_inherited_flags() forced the
backing file to be read-only, ignoring the r/w reopen of bdrv_commit().
The bigger problem this revealed is that the original open flags must
actually only be applied to the temporary snapshot, and the original
image file must be treated as a backing file of the temporary snapshot
and get the right flags for that.

Since commit 9fd3171a, BDRV_O_SNAPSHOT uses an option QDict to specify
the originally requested image as the backing file of the newly created
temporary snapshot. This means that the filename is stored in
"file.filename", which is an option that is not parsed for protocol
names. Therefore things like -drive file=nbd:localhost:10809 were
broken because it looked for a local file with the literal name
'nbd:localhost:10809'.
This patch changes the way BDRV_O_SNAPSHOT works once again. We now open
the originally requested image as normal, and then do a similar
operation as for live snapshots to put the temporary snapshot on top.
This way, both driver specific options and parsed filenames work.
As a nice side effect, this results in code movement to factor
bdrv_append_temp_snapshot() out. This is a good preparation for moving
its call to drive_init() and friends eventually.

It can be useful to run an AioContext from a thread which normally does
not "own" the AioContext. For example, request draining can be
implemented by acquiring the AioContext and looping aio_poll() until all
requests have been completed.
The following pattern should work:
/* Event loop thread */
while (running) {
aio_context_acquire(ctx);
aio_poll(ctx, true);
aio_context_release(ctx);
}
/* Another thread */
aio_context_acquire(ctx);
bdrv_read(bs, 0x1000, buf, 1);
aio_context_release(ctx);
This patch implements aio_context_acquire() and aio_context_release().
Note that existing aio_poll() callers do not need to worry about
acquiring and releasing - it is only needed when multiple threads will
call aio_poll() on the same AioContext.

bs->buffer_alignment is set by the device emulation and contains the

block layer should know, and even less something to use for determining
the right alignment of buffers to be used for the host.
The new BlockLimits field opt_mem_alignment tells the qemu block layer
the optimal alignment to be used so that no bounce buffer must be used
in the driver.
This patch may change the buffer alignment from 4k to 512 for all
callers that used qemu_blockalign() with the top-level image format
BlockDriverState. The value was never propagated to other levels in the
tree, so in particular raw-posix never required anything else than 512.
While on disks with 4k sectors direct I/O requires a 4k alignment,
memory may still be okay when aligned to 512 byte boundaries. This is
what must have happened in practice, because otherwise this would
already have failed earlier. Therefore I don't expect regressions even
with this intermediate state. Later, raw-posix can implement the hook
and expose a different memory alignment requirement.

}
2)
{ 'command': 'block_passwd', 'data': {'device': 'str',
'*device-is-node': 'bool',

Luiz proposed 1 and says 2 was an abuse of the QMP interface and proposed to
rewrite the QMP block interface for 2.0.
Luiz does not like in 1 the fact that 2 fields are optional but one of them must

Kevin argumented that 2 what a clear abuse of the device field and would not be
practical when reading fast some log file because the user would read "device"
and think that a device is manipulated when it's in fact a node name.
Documentation of 1 make it pretty clear what to do for the user.

Kevin pushed the argument that making the QAPI generator compatible with the
