Max Reitz 5469a2a688 block: Handle bs->options in bdrv_open() only
The fail paths of bdrv_file_open() and bdrv_open() naturally exhibit
similarities, thus it is possible to reuse the one from bdrv_open() and
shorten the one in bdrv_file_open() accordingly.

Also, setting bs->options in bdrv_file_open() is not necessary if it is
already done in bdrv_open().

Max Reitz 2e40134bfd block: Make bdrv_file_open() static
Add the bdrv_open() option BDRV_O_PROTOCOL which results in passing the
call to bdrv_file_open(). Additionally, make bdrv_file_open() static and
therefore bdrv_open() the only way to call it.

Consequently, all existing calls to bdrv_file_open() have to be adjusted
to use bdrv_open() with the BDRV_O_PROTOCOL flag instead.

Kevin Wolf 28de2dcd88 block: Assert serialisation assumptions in pwritev
If a request calls wait_serialising_requests() and actually has to wait
in this function (i.e. a coroutine yield), other requests can run and
previously read data (like the head or tail buffer) could become
outdated. In this case, we would have to restart from the beginning to
read in the updated data.

However, we're lucky and don't actually need to do that: A request can
only wait in the first call of wait_serialising_requests() because we
mark it as serialising before that call, so any later requests would
wait. So as we don't wait in practice, we don't have to reload the data.

This is an important assumption that may not be broken or data
corruption will happen. Document it with some assertions.

We can only have a single wait_serialising_requests() call per request
because otherwise we can run into deadlocks where requests are waiting
for each other. The same is true when wait_serialising_requests() is not
at the very beginning of a request, so that other requests can be issued
between the start of the tracking and wait_serialising_requests().

Fix this by changing wait_serialising_requests() to ignore requests that
are already (directly or indirectly) waiting for the calling request.

Kevin Wolf 339064d506 block: Don't use guest sector size for qemu_blockalign()
bs->buffer_alignment is set by the device emulation and contains the
logical block size of the guest device. This isn't something that 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.

be specified leading to an abuse of the QMP semantic.

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 argued that all bs are node including devices ones so 2 does not make
sense.

Kevin also argued that rewriting the QMP block interface would not make disapear
the current one.

Kevin pushed the argument that making the QAPI generator compatible with the
semantic of the operation would need a rewrite that no one has done yet.

A vote has been done on the list to elect the version to use and 1 won.

Peter Feiner d80ac658f2 block: fix backing file segfault
When a backing file is opened such that (1) a protocol is directly
used as the block driver and (2) the block driver has bdrv_file_open,
bdrv_open_backing_file segfaults. The problem arises because
bdrv_open_common returns without setting bd->backing_hd->file.

To effect (1), you seem to have to use the -F flag in qemu-img. There
are several block drivers that satisfy (2), such as "file" and "nbd".
Here are some concrete examples:

    #!/bin/bash

    echo Test file format
    ./qemu-img create -f file base.file 1m
    ./qemu-img create -f qcow2 -F file -o backing_file=base.file\
        file-overlay.qcow2
    ./qemu-img convert -O raw file-overlay.qcow2 file-convert.raw

    echo Test nbd format
    SOCK=$PWD/nbd.sock
    ./qemu-img create -f raw base.raw 1m
    ./qemu-nbd -t -k $SOCK base.raw &
    trap "kill $!" EXIT
    while ! test -e $SOCK; do sleep 1; done
    ./qemu-img create -f qcow2 -F nbd -o backing_file=nbd:unix:$SOCK\
        nbd-overlay.qcow2
    ./qemu-img convert -O raw nbd-overlay.qcow2 nbd-convert.raw

Without this patch, the two qemu-img convert commands segfault.

This is a regression that was introduced in v1.7 by
dbecebddfa.

Max Reitz 505d758334 block: Allow recursive "file"s
It should be possible to use a format as a driver for a file which in
turn requires another file, i.e., nesting file formats.

Allowing nested file formats results in e.g. qcow2 BlockDriverStates
never being directly passed to bdrv_open_common() from bdrv_file_open(),
but instead being handed through bdrv_open(). This changes the error
message when trying to give a filename to qcow2, i.e. trying to use it
as a driver for the protocol level. Therefore, change the reference
output of I/O test 051 accordingly.
