Both qemu and qemu-img use writeback cache mode by default, which is
already documented in qemu(1). qemu-nbd uses writethrough cache mode by
default, and the default cache mode is not documented.
According to the qemu-nbd(8):
--cache=CACHE
The cache mode to be used with the file. See the
documentation of the emulator's -drive cache=... option for
allowed values.
qemu(1) says:
The default mode is cache=writeback.
So users have no reason to assume that qemu-nbd is using writethough
cache mode. The only hint is the painfully slow writing when using the
defaults.
Looking in git history, it seems that qemu used writethrough in the past
to support broken guests that did not flush data properly, or could not
flush due to limitations in qemu. But qemu-nbd clients can use
NBD_CMD_FLUSH to flush data, so using writethrough does not help anyone.
Change the default cache mode to writback, and document the default and
available values properly in the online help and manual.
With this change converting image via qemu-nbd is 3.5 times faster.
$ qemu-img create dst.img 50g
$ qemu-nbd -t -f raw -k /tmp/nbd.sock dst.img
Before this change:
$ hyperfine -r3 "./qemu-img convert -p -f raw -O raw -T none -W fedora34.img nbd+unix:///?socket=/tmp/nbd.sock"
Benchmark #1: ./qemu-img convert -p -f raw -O raw -T none -W fedora34.img nbd+unix:///?socket=/tmp/nbd.sock
Time (mean ± σ): 83.639 s ± 5.970 s [User: 2.733 s, System: 6.112 s]

After this change:

Range (min … max): 23.234 s … 24.019 s 3 runs
Users can avoid the issue by using --cache=writeback[1] but the defaults
should give good performance for the common use case.

Our default of a backlog of 1 connection is rather puny; it gets in
the way when we are explicitly allowing multiple clients (such as
qemu-nbd -e N [--shared], or nbd-server-start with its default
"max-connections":0 for unlimited), but is even a problem when we
stick to qemu-nbd's default of only 1 active client but use -t
[--persistent] where a second client can start using the server once
the first finishes. While the effects are less noticeable on TCP
sockets (since the client can poll() to learn when the server is ready
again), it is definitely observable on Unix sockets, where on Linux, a
client will fail with EAGAIN and no recourse but to sleep an arbitrary
amount of time before retrying if the server backlog is already full.
Since QMP nbd-server-start is always persistent, it now always
requests a backlog of SOMAXCONN; meanwhile, qemu-nbd will request
SOMAXCONN if persistent, otherwise its backlog should be based on the
expected number of clients.
See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1925045 for a demonstration of where
our low backlog prevents libnbd from connecting as many parallel
clients as it wants.

Allow the server to expose an additional metacontext to be requested
by savvy clients. qemu-nbd adds a new option -A to expose the
qemu:allocation-depth metacontext through NBD_CMD_BLOCK_STATUS; this
can also be set via QMP when using block-export-add.
qemu as client is hacked into viewing the key aspects of this new
context by abusing the already-experimental x-dirty-bitmap option to
collapse all depths greater than 2, which results in a tri-state value
visible in the output of 'qemu-img map --output=json' (yes, that means
x-dirty-bitmap is now a bit of a misnomer, but I didn't feel like
renaming it as it would introduce a needless break of back-compat,
even though we make no compat guarantees with x- members):
unallocated (depth 0) => "zero":false, "data":true
local (depth 1) => "zero":false, "data":false
backing (depth 2+) => "zero":true, "data":true

without having to decipher such hacks in qemu as client. ;)

nbd-server-add tries to be convenient and adds two questionable
features that we don't want to share in block-export-add, even for NBD
exports:
1. When requesting a writable export of a read-only device, the export
is silently downgraded to read-only. This should be an error in the
context of block-export-add.
2. When using a BlockBackend name, unplugging the device from the guest
will automatically stop the NBD server, too. This may sometimes be
what you want, but it could also be very surprising. Let's keep
things explicit with block-export-add. If the user wants to stop the
export, they should tell us so.
Move these things into the nbd-server-add QMP command handler so that
they apply only there.

Qemu as server currently won't accept export names larger than 256

uses of qemu as client or server have no reason to get anywhere near
the NBD spec maximum of a 4k limit per string.
However, we weren't actually enforcing things, ignoring when the
remote side violates the protocol on input, and also having several
code paths where we send oversize strings on output (for example,
qemu-nbd --description could easily send more than 4k). Tighten
things up as follows:
client:
- Perform bounds check on export name and dirty bitmap request prior
to handing it to server
- Validate that copied server replies are not too long (ignoring
NBD_INFO_* replies that are not copied is not too bad)
server:
- Perform bounds check on export name and description prior to
advertising it to client
- Reject client name or metadata query that is too long
- Adjust things to allow full 4k name limit rather than previous

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]
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.

This commit adds a error_init() helper which calls
g_log_set_default_handler() so that glib logs (g_log, g_warning, ...)
are handled similarly to other QEMU logs. This means they will get a
timestamp if timestamps are enabled, and they will go through the
HMP monitor if one is configured.
This commit also adds a call to error_init() to the binaries
installed by QEMU. Since error_init() also calls error_set_progname(),
this means that *-linux-user, *-bsd-user and qemu-pr-helper messages
output with error_report, info_report, ... will slightly change: they
will be prefixed by the binary name.
glib debug messages are enabled through G_MESSAGES_DEBUG similarly to
the glib default log handler.
At the moment, this change will mostly impact SPICE logging if your
spice version is >= 0.14.1. With older spice versions, this is not going
to work as expected, but will not have any ill effect, so this call is
not conditional on the SPICE version.

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
server.
For example to setup authorization that only allows connection from a client
whose x509 certificate distinguished name is
CN=laptop.example.com,O=Example Org,L=London,ST=London,C=GB
escape the commas in the name and use:
qemu-nbd --object tls-creds-x509,id=tls0,dir=/home/berrange/qemutls,\
endpoint=server,verify-peer=yes \
--object 'authz-simple,id=auth0,identity=CN=laptop.example.com,,\
O=Example Org,,L=London,,ST=London,,C=GB' \
--tls-creds tls0 \
--tls-authz authz0 \
....other qemu-nbd args...

The existing qemu-nbd --partition code claims to handle logical
partitions up to 8, since its introduction in 2008 (commit 7a5ca86).
However, the implementation is bogus (actual MBR logical partitions
form a sort of linked list, with one partition per extended table
entry, rather than four logical partitions in a single extended
table), making the code unlikely to work for anything beyond -P5 on
actual guest images. What's more, the code does not support GPT
partitions, which are becoming more popular, and maintaining device
subsetting in both NBD and the raw device is unnecessary duplication
of effort (even if it is not too difficult).
Note that obtaining the offsets of a partition (MBR or GPT) can be
learned by using 'qemu-nbd -c /dev/nbd0 file.qcow2 && sfdisk --dump
/dev/nbd0', but by the time you've done that, you might as well
just mount /dev/nbd0p1 that the kernel creates for you instead of
bothering with qemu exporting a subset. Or, keeping to just
user-space code, use nbdkit's partition filter, which has already
known both GPT and primary MBR partitions for a while, and was
just recently enhanced to support arbitrary logical MBR parititions.
Start the clock on the deprecation cycle, with examples of how
to accomplish device subsetting without using -P.

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, it is time to add
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 actually implements --list/-L, while reusing other
options such as --tls-creds for now designating how to connect
as the client (rather than their non-list usage of how to operate
as the server).
I debated about adding this functionality to something akin to
'qemu-img info' - but that tool does not readily lend itself
to connecting to an arbitrary NBD server without also tying to
a specific export (I may, however, still add ImageInfoSpecificNBD
for reporting the bitmaps available when connecting to a single
export). And, while it may feel a bit odd that normally
qemu-nbd is a server but 'qemu-nbd -L' is a client, we are not
really making the qemu-nbd binary that much larger, because
'qemu-nbd -c' has to operate as both server and client
simultaneously across two threads when feeding the kernel module
for /dev/nbdN access.
Sample output:
$ qemu-nbd -L
exports available: 1
export: ''
size: 65536
flags: 0x4ed ( flush fua trim zeroes df cache )
min block: 512
opt block: 4096
max block: 33554432
available meta contexts: 1
base:allocation
Note that the output only lists sizes if the server sent
NBD_FLAG_HAS_FLAGS, because a newstyle server does not give
the size otherwise. It has the side effect that for really
old servers that did not send any flags, the size is not
output even though it was available. However, I'm not too
concerned about that - oldstyle servers are (rightfully)
getting less common to encounter (qemu 3.0 was the last
version where we even serve it), and most existing servers
that still even offer oldstyle negotiation (such as nbdkit)
still send flags (since that was added to the NBD protocol
in 2007 to permit read-only connections).
Not done here, but maybe worth future experiments: capture
the meat of NBDExportInfo into a QAPI struct, and use the
generated QAPI pretty-printers instead of hand-rolling our
output loop. It would also permit us to add a JSON output
mode for machine parsing.

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).

Our copy-and-pasted open-coding of strtol handling forgot to
handle overflow conditions. Use qemu_strto*() instead.
In the case of --partition, since we insist on a user-supplied
partition to be non-zero, we can use 0 rather than -1 for our
initial value to distinguish when a partition is not being
served, for slightly more optimal code.
The error messages for out-of-bounds values are less specific,
but should not be a terrible loss in quality.

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.
