Linux limits the size of iovecs to 1024 (UIO_MAXIOV in the kernel
sources, IOV_MAX in POSIX). Because of this, on some host adapters
requests with many iovecs are rejected with -EINVAL by the
io_submit() or readv()/writev() system calls.
In fact, the same limit applies to SG_IO as well. To fix both the
EINVAL and the possible performance issues from using fewer iovecs
than allowed by Linux (some HBAs have max_segments as low as 128),
introduce a separate entry in BlockLimits to hold the max_segments
value from sysfs. This new limit is used only for SG_IO and clamped
to bs->bl.max_iov anyway, just like max_hw_transfer is clamped to
bs->bl.max_transfer.

We are generally moving to int64_t for both offset and bytes parameters
on all io paths.
Main motivation is realization of 64-bit write_zeroes operation for
fast zeroing large disk chunks, up to the whole disk.
We chose signed type, to be consistent with off_t (which is signed) and
with possibility for signed return type (where negative value means
error).
So, convert driver discard handlers bytes parameter to int64_t.
The only caller of all updated function is bdrv_co_pdiscard in
block/io.c. It is already prepared to work with 64bit requests, but
pass at most max(bs->bl.max_pdiscard, INT_MAX) to the driver.
Let's look at all updated functions:
blkdebug: all calculations are still OK, thanks to
bdrv_check_qiov_request().
both rule_check and bdrv_co_pdiscard are 64bit
blklogwrites: pass to blk_loc_writes_co_log which is 64bit
blkreplay, copy-on-read, filter-compress: pass to bdrv_co_pdiscard, OK
copy-before-write: pass to bdrv_co_pdiscard which is 64bit and to
cbw_do_copy_before_write which is 64bit
file-posix: one handler calls raw_account_discard() is 64bit and both
handlers calls raw_do_pdiscard(). Update raw_do_pdiscard, which pass
to RawPosixAIOData::aio_nbytes, which is 64bit (and calls
raw_account_discard())
gluster: somehow, third argument of glfs_discard_async is size_t.
Let's set max_pdiscard accordingly.
iscsi: iscsi_allocmap_set_invalid is 64bit,
!is_byte_request_lun_aligned is 64bit.
list.num is uint32_t. Let's clarify max_pdiscard and
pdiscard_alignment.
mirror_top: pass to bdrv_mirror_top_do_write() which is
64bit
nbd: protocol limitation. max_pdiscard is alredy set strict enough,
keep it as is for now.
nvme: buf.nlb is uint32_t and we do shift. So, add corresponding limits
to nvme_refresh_limits().
preallocate: pass to bdrv_co_pdiscard() which is 64bit.
rbd: pass to qemu_rbd_start_co() which is 64bit.
qcow2: calculations are still OK, thanks to bdrv_check_qiov_request(),
qcow2_cluster_discard() is 64bit.
raw-format: raw_adjust_offset() is 64bit, bdrv_co_pdiscard too.
throttle: pass to bdrv_co_pdiscard() which is 64bit and to
throttle_group_co_io_limits_intercept() which is 64bit as well.

Update also max_pdiscard variable in bdrv_co_pdiscard(), so that

We chose signed type, to be consistent with off_t (which is signed) and

So, convert driver write_zeroes handlers bytes parameter to int64_t.
The only caller of all updated function is bdrv_co_do_pwrite_zeroes().
bdrv_co_do_pwrite_zeroes() itself is of course OK with widening of
callee parameter type. Also, bdrv_co_do_pwrite_zeroes()'s
max_write_zeroes is limited to INT_MAX. So, updated functions all are
safe, they will not get "bytes" larger than before.
Still, let's look through all updated functions, and add assertions to
the ones which are actually unprepared to values larger than INT_MAX.
For these drivers also set explicit max_pwrite_zeroes limit.
Let's go:
blkdebug: calculations can't overflow, thanks to
bdrv_check_qiov_request() in generic layer. rule_check() and
bdrv_co_pwrite_zeroes() both have 64bit argument.
blklogwrites: pass to blk_log_writes_co_log() with 64bit argument.
blkreplay, copy-on-read, filter-compress: pass to
bdrv_co_pwrite_zeroes() which is OK
copy-before-write: Calls cbw_do_copy_before_write() and
bdrv_co_pwrite_zeroes, both have 64bit argument.
file-posix: both handler calls raw_do_pwrite_zeroes, which is updated.
In raw_do_pwrite_zeroes() calculations are OK due to
bdrv_check_qiov_request(), bytes go to RawPosixAIOData::aio_nbytes
which is uint64_t.
Check also where that uint64_t gets handed:
handle_aiocb_write_zeroes_block() passes a uint64_t[2] to
ioctl(BLKZEROOUT), handle_aiocb_write_zeroes() calls do_fallocate()
which takes off_t (and we compile to always have 64-bit off_t), as
does handle_aiocb_write_zeroes_unmap. All look safe.
gluster: bytes go to GlusterAIOCB::size which is int64_t and to
glfs_zerofill_async works with off_t.
iscsi: Aha, here we deal with iscsi_writesame16_task() that has
uint32_t num_blocks argument and iscsi_writesame16_task() has
uint16_t argument. Make comments, add assertions and clarify
max_pwrite_zeroes calculation.
iscsi_allocmap_() functions already has int64_t argument
is_byte_request_lun_aligned is simple to update, do it.
mirror_top: pass to bdrv_mirror_top_do_write which has uint64_t
argument
nbd: Aha, here we have protocol limitation, and NBDRequest::len is
uint32_t. max_pwrite_zeroes is cleanly set to 32bit value, so we are
OK for now.
nvme: Again, protocol limitation. And no inherent limit for
write-zeroes at all. But from code that calculates cdw12 it's obvious
that we do have limit and alignment. Let's clarify it. Also,
obviously the code is not prepared to handle bytes=0. Let's handle
this case too.
trace events already 64bit
preallocate: pass to handle_write() and bdrv_co_pwrite_zeroes(), both
64bit.
rbd: pass to qemu_rbd_start_co() which is 64bit.
qcow2: offset + bytes and alignment still works good (thanks to
bdrv_check_qiov_request()), so tail calculation is OK
qcow2_subcluster_zeroize() has 64bit argument, should be OK
trace events updated
qed: qed_co_request wants int nb_sectors. Also in code we have size_t
used for request length which may be 32bit. So, let's just keep
INT_MAX as a limit (aligning it down to pwrite_zeroes_alignment) and
don't care.
raw-format: Is OK. raw_adjust_offset and bdrv_co_pwrite_zeroes are both
64bit.
throttle: Both throttle_group_co_io_limits_intercept() and
bdrv_co_pwrite_zeroes() are 64bit.
vmdk: pass to vmdk_pwritev which is 64bit
quorum: pass to quorum_co_pwritev() which is 64bit
Hooray!
At this point all block drivers are prepared to support 64bit
write-zero requests, or have explicitly set max_pwrite_zeroes.

As we have attempted before
(https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2019-01/msg06451.html,
"file-posix: Cache lseek result for data regions";
https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-block/2021-02/msg00934.html,
"file-posix: Cache next hole"), this patch seeks to reduce the number of
SEEK_DATA/HOLE operations the file-posix driver has to perform. The
main difference is that this time it is implemented as part of the
general block layer code.
The problem we face is that on some filesystems or in some
circumstances, SEEK_DATA/HOLE is unreasonably slow. Given the
implementation is outside of qemu, there is little we can do about its
performance.
We have already introduced the want_zero parameter to
bdrv_co_block_status() to reduce the number of SEEK_DATA/HOLE calls
unless we really want zero information; but sometimes we do want that
information, because for files that consist largely of zero areas,
special-casing those areas can give large performance boosts. So the
real problem is with files that consist largely of data, so that
inquiring the block status does not gain us much performance, but where
such an inquiry itself takes a lot of time.
To address this, we want to cache data regions. Most of the time, when
bad performance is reported, it is in places where the image is iterated
over from start to end (qemu-img convert or the mirror job), so a simple
yet effective solution is to cache only the current data region.
(Note that only caching data regions but not zero regions means that
returning false information from the cache is not catastrophic: Treating
zeroes as data is fine. While we try to invalidate the cache on zero
writes and discards, such incongruences may still occur when there are
other processes writing to the image.)
We only use the cache for nodes without children (i.e. protocol nodes),
because that is where the problem is: Drivers that rely on block-status
implementations outside of qemu (e.g. SEEK_DATA/HOLE).

For block host devices, I/O can happen through either the kernel file
descriptor I/O system calls (preadv/pwritev, io_submit, io_uring)
or the SCSI passthrough ioctl SG_IO.
In the latter case, the size of each transfer can be limited by the
HBA, while for file descriptor I/O the kernel is able to split and
merge I/O in smaller pieces as needed. Applying the HBA limits to
file descriptor I/O results in more system calls and suboptimal
performance, so this patch splits the max_transfer limit in two:
max_transfer remains valid and is used in general, while max_hw_transfer
is limited to the maximum hardware size. max_hw_transfer can then be
included by the scsi-generic driver in the block limits page, to ensure
that the stricter hardware limit is used.

It's safe as we don't work with requests overflowing BDRV_MAX_LENGTH
(which is less than INT64_MAX), and do check the requests in
bdrv_co_copy_range_internal() (by bdrv_check_request32(), which calls
bdrv_check_request()).

We are generally moving to int64_t for both offset and bytes parameters
on all io paths.
Main motivation is realization of 64-bit write_zeroes operation for
fast zeroing large disk chunks, up to the whole disk.
We chose signed type, to be consistent with off_t (which is signed) and
with possibility for signed return type (where negative value means
error).
Now, since bdrv_co_preadv_part() and bdrv_co_pwritev_part() have been
updated, update all their wrappers.
For all of them type of 'bytes' is widening, so callers are safe. We
have update request_fn in blkverify.c simultaneously. Still it's just a
pointer to one of bdrv_co_pwritev() or bdrv_co_preadv(), and type is
widening for callers of the request_fn anyway.

In bdrv_co_preadv_part() and bdrv_aligned_pwritev() we only pass bytes

- We are going to add more performance parameters, some will be

copying in backup (ignored for copy-before-write operations).
- On the other hand, we are going to use block-copy interface in other
block jobs, which will need performance options as well.. And it
should be the same structure or at least somehow related.
So, there are too much unclean things about how the interface and now
we need the new options mostly for testing. Let's keep them
experimental for a while.
In do_backup_common() new x-perf parameter handled in a way to
make further options addition simpler.

- drop difference between above_base and base_overlay, which will be

- clean way to work with parallel streams/commits on the same backing

We are going to modify block layer to work with 64bit requests. And
first step is moving to int64_t type for both offset and bytes
arguments in all block request related functions.
It's mostly safe (when widening signed or unsigned int to int64_t), but
switching from uint64_t is questionable.
So, let's first establish the set of requests we want to work with.
First signed int64_t should be enough, as off_t is signed anyway. Then,
obviously offset + bytes should not overflow.
And most interesting: (offset + bytes) being aligned up should not
overflow as well. Aligned to what alignment? First thing that comes in
mind is bs->bl.request_alignment, as we align up request to this
alignment. But there is another thing: look at
bdrv_mark_request_serialising(). It aligns request up to some given
alignment. And this parameter may be bdrv_get_cluster_size(), which is
often a lot greater than bs->bl.request_alignment.
Note also, that bdrv_mark_request_serialising() uses signed int64_t for
calculations. So, actually, we already depend on some restrictions.
Happily, bdrv_get_cluster_size() returns int and
bs->bl.request_alignment has 32bit unsigned type, but defined to be a
power of 2 less than INT_MAX. So, we may establish, that INT_MAX is
absolute maximum for any kind of alignment that may occur with the
request.
Note, that bdrv_get_cluster_size() is not documented to return power
of 2, still bdrv_mark_request_serialising() behaves like it is.
Also, backup uses bdi.cluster_size and is not prepared to it not being
power of 2.
So, let's establish that Qemu supports only power-of-2 clusters and
alignments.
So, alignment can't be greater than 2^30.
Finally to be safe with calculations, to not calculate different
maximums for different nodes (depending on cluster size and
request_alignment), let's simply set QEMU_ALIGN_DOWN(INT64_MAX, 2^30)
as absolute maximum bytes length for Qemu. Actually, it's not much less
than INT64_MAX.
OK, then, let's apply it to block/io.
Let's consider all block/io entry points of offset/bytes:
4 bytes/offset interface functions: bdrv_co_preadv_part(),
bdrv_co_pwritev_part(), bdrv_co_copy_range_internal() and
bdrv_co_pdiscard() and we check them all with bdrv_check_request().
We also have one entry point with only offset: bdrv_co_truncate().
Check the offset.
And one public structure: BdrvTrackedRequest. Happily, it has only
three external users:
file-posix.c: adopted by this patch
write-threshold.c: only read fields
test-write-threshold.c: sets obviously small constant values
Better is to make the structure private and add corresponding
interfaces.. Still it's not obvious what kind of interface is needed
for file-posix.c. Let's keep it public but add corresponding
assertions.
After this patch we'll convert functions in block/io.c to int64_t bytes
and offset parameters. We can assume that offset/bytes pair always
satisfy new restrictions, and make
corresponding assertions where needed. If we reach some offset/bytes
point in block/io.c missing bdrv_check_request() it is considered a
bug. As well, if block/io.c modifies a offset/bytes request, expanding
it more then aligning up to request_alignment, it's a bug too.
For all io requests except for discard we keep for now old restriction
of 32bit request length.

larger than new limit. Add one more test case with new maximum disk
size to cover too-big-L1 case.

Parts of the block layer treat BDS.backing_file as if it were whatever
the image header says (i.e., if it is a relative path, it is relative to
the overlay), other parts treat it like a cache for
bs->backing->bs->filename (relative paths are relative to the CWD).
Considering bs->backing->bs->filename exists, let us make it mean the
former.
Among other things, this now allows the user to specify a base when
using qemu-img to commit an image file in a directory that is not the
CWD (assuming, everything uses relative filenames).
Before this patch:
$ ./qemu-img create -f qcow2 foo/bot.qcow2 1M
$ ./qemu-img create -f qcow2 -b bot.qcow2 foo/mid.qcow2
$ ./qemu-img create -f qcow2 -b mid.qcow2 foo/top.qcow2
$ ./qemu-img commit -b mid.qcow2 foo/top.qcow2
qemu-img: Did not find 'mid.qcow2' in the backing chain of 'foo/top.qcow2'
$ ./qemu-img commit -b foo/mid.qcow2 foo/top.qcow2
qemu-img: Did not find 'foo/mid.qcow2' in the backing chain of 'foo/top.qcow2'
$ ./qemu-img commit -b $PWD/foo/mid.qcow2 foo/top.qcow2
qemu-img: Did not find '[...]/foo/mid.qcow2' in the backing chain of 'foo/top.qcow2'
After this patch:
$ ./qemu-img commit -b mid.qcow2 foo/top.qcow2
Image committed.
$ ./qemu-img commit -b foo/mid.qcow2 foo/top.qcow2
qemu-img: Did not find 'foo/mid.qcow2' in the backing chain of 'foo/top.qcow2'
$ ./qemu-img commit -b $PWD/foo/mid.qcow2 foo/top.qcow2
Image committed.
With this change, bdrv_find_backing_image() must look at whether the
user has overridden a BDS's backing file. If so, it can no longer use
bs->backing_file, but must instead compare the given filename against
the backing node's filename directly.
Note that this changes the QAPI output for a node's backing_file. We
had very inconsistent output there (sometimes what the image header
said, sometimes the actual filename of the backing image). This
inconsistent output was effectively useless, so we have to decide one
way or the other. Considering that bs->backing_file usually at runtime
contained the path to the image relative to qemu's CWD (or absolute),
this patch changes QAPI's backing_file to always report the
bs->backing->bs->filename from now on. If you want to receive the image
header information, you have to refer to full-backing-filename.
This necessitates a change to iotest 228. The interesting information
it really wanted is the image header, and it can get that now, but it
has to use full-backing-filename instead of backing_file. Because of
this patch's changes to bs->backing_file's behavior, we also need some
reference output changes.
Along with the changes to bs->backing_file, stop updating
BDS.backing_format in bdrv_backing_attach() as well. This way,
ImageInfo's backing-filename and backing-filename-format fields will
represent what the image header says and nothing else.
iotest 245 changes in behavior: With the backing node no longer
overriding the parent node's backing_file string, you can now omit the
@backing option when reopening a node with neither a default nor a
current backing file even if it used to have a backing node at some
point.
273 also changes: The base image is opened without a format layer, so
ImageInfo.backing-filename-format used to report "file" for the base
image's overlay after blockdev-snapshot. However, the image header
never says "file" anywhere, so it now reports $IMGFMT.

There are BDS children that the general block layer code can access,
namely bs->file and bs->backing. Since the introduction of filters and
external data files, their meaning is not quite clear. bs->backing can
be a COW source, or it can be a filtered child; bs->file can be a
filtered child, it can be data and metadata storage, or it can be just
metadata storage.
This overloading really is not helpful. This patch adds functions that
retrieve the correct child for each exact purpose. Later patches in
this series will make use of them. Doing so will allow us to handle

Especially when O_DIRECT is used with image files so that the page cache
indirection can't cause a merge of allocating requests, the file will
fragment on the file system layer, with a potentially very small
fragment size (this depends on the requests the guest sent).
On Linux, fragmentation can be reduced by setting an extent size hint
when creating the file (at least on XFS, it can't be set any more after
the first extent has been allocated), basically giving raw files a
"cluster size" for allocation.
This adds a create option to set the extent size hint, and changes the
default from not setting a hint to setting it to 1 MB. The main reason
why qcow2 defaults to smaller cluster sizes is that COW becomes more
expensive, which is not an issue with raw files, so we can choose a
larger size. The tradeoff here is only potentially wasted disk space.
For qcow2 (or other image formats) over file-posix, the advantage should
even be greater because they grow sequentially without leaving holes, so
there won't be wasted space. Setting even larger extent size hints for
such images may make sense. This can be done with the new option, but
let's keep the default conservative for now.
The effect is very visible with a test that intentionally creates a
badly fragmented file with qemu-img bench (the time difference while
creating the file is already remarkable) and then looks at the number of
extents and the time a simple "qemu-img map" takes.

Upcoming patches will enhance bitmap support in qemu-img, but in doing
so, it turns out to be nice to suppress output when persistent bitmaps
make no sense (such as on a qcow2 v2 image). Add a hook to make this

This patch adds a new callback .bdrv_supports_persistent_dirty_bitmap,
rather than trying to shoehorn the answer in via existing callbacks.
In particular, while it might have been possible to overload
.bdrv_co_can_store_new_dirty_bitmap to special-case a NULL input to
answer whether any persistent bitmaps are supported, that is at odds
with whether a particular bitmap can be stored (for example, even on

fail); and the new functionality doesn't require coroutine safety.
Similarly, we could have added one more piece of information to
.bdrv_get_info, but then again, most callers to that function tend to
already discard extraneous information, and making it a catch-all
rather than a series of dedicated scalar queries hasn't really
simplified life.
In the future, when we improve the ability to look up bitmaps through
a filter, we will probably also want to teach the block layer to
automatically let filters pass this request on through.
