The bdrv_find_protocol() function returns NULL if an unknown protocol
name is given.  It returns the "file" protocol when the filename
contains no protocol at all.  This makes it difficult to distinguish

Markus Armbruster 4be9762adb block: Change bdrv_eject() not to drop the image
bdrv_eject() gets called when a device model opens or closes the tray.

If the block driver implements method bdrv_eject(), that method gets
called.  Drivers host_cdrom implements it, and it opens and closes the
physical tray, and nothing else.  When a device model opens, then
closes the tray, media changes only if the user actively changes the
physical media while the tray is open.  This is matches how physical
hardware behaves.

If the block driver doesn't implement method bdrv_eject(), we do
something quite different: opening the tray severs the connection to
the image by calling bdrv_close(), and closing the tray does nothing.
When the device model opens, then closes the tray, media is gone,
unless the user actively inserts another one while the tray is open,
with a suitable change command in the monitor.  This isn't how
physical hardware behaves.  Rather inconvenient when programs
"helpfully" eject media to give you a chance to change it.  The way
bdrv_eject() behaves here turns that chance into a must, which is not
what these programs or their users expect.

Change the default action not to call bdrv_close().  Instead, note the
tray status in new BlockDriverState member tray_open.  Use it in
bdrv_is_inserted().

Arguably, the device models should keep track of tray status
themselves.  But this is less invasive.

Anthony Liguori 79368c81bf Make default invocation of block drivers safer (v3)
CVE-2008-2004 described a vulnerability in QEMU whereas a malicious user could
trick the block probing code into accessing arbitrary files in a guest.  To
mitigate this, we added an explicit format parameter to -drive which disabling
block probing.

Fast forward to today, and the vast majority of users do not use this parameter.
libvirt does not use this by default nor does virt-manager.

Most users want block probing so we should try to make it safer.

This patch adds some logic to the raw device which attempts to detect a write
operation to the beginning of a raw device.  If the first 4 bytes happen to
match an image file that has a backing file that we support, it scrubs the
signature to all zeros.  If a user specifies an explicit format parameter, this
behavior is disabled.

I contend that while a legitimate guest could write such a signature to the
header, we would behave incorrectly anyway upon the next invocation of QEMU.
This simply changes the incorrect behavior to not involve a security
vulnerability.

I've tested this pretty extensively both in the positive and negative case.  I'm
not 100% confident in the block layer's ability to deal with zero sized writes
particularly with respect to the aio functions so some additional eyes would be
appreciated.

Even in the case of a single sector write, we have to make sure to invoked the
completion from a bottom half so just removing the zero sized write is not an
option.

Kevin Wolf de189a1b4a block: Handle multiwrite errors only when all requests have completed
Don't try to be clever by freeing all temporary data and calling all callbacks
when the return value (an error) is certain. Doing so has at least two
important problems:

* The temporary data that is freed (qiov, possibly zero buffer) is still used
  by the requests that have not yet completed.
* Calling the callbacks for all requests in the multiwrite means for the caller
  that it may free buffers etc. which are still in use.

Just remember the error value and do the cleanup when all requests have

Markus Armbruster 7d0d69509a block: Fix virtual media change for if=none
BlockDriverState member removable controls whether virtual media
change (monitor commands change, eject) is allowed.  It is set when
the "type hint" is BDRV_TYPE_CDROM or BDRV_TYPE_FLOPPY.

The type hint is only set by drive_init().  It sets BDRV_TYPE_FLOPPY
for if=floppy.  It sets BDRV_TYPE_CDROM for media=cdrom and if=ide,
scsi, xen, or none.

if=ide and if=scsi work, because the type hint makes it a CD-ROM.
if=xen likewise, I think.

For the same reason, if=none works when it's used by ide-drive or
scsi-disk.  For other guest devices, there are problems:

* fdc: you can't change virtual media

    $ qemu [...] -drive if=none,id=foo,... -global isa-fdc.driveA=foo
    QEMU 0.12.50 monitor - type 'help' for more information
    (qemu) eject foo
    Device 'foo' is not removable

  unless you add media=cdrom, but that makes it readonly.

* virtio: if you add media=cdrom, you can change virtual media.  If
  you eject, the guest gets I/O errors.  If you change, the guest sees
  the drive's contents suddenly change.

* scsi-generic: if you add media=cdrom, you can change virtual media.
  I didn't test what that does to the guest or the physical device,
  but it can't be pretty.

Miguel Di Ciurcio Filho feeee5aca7 savevm: Really verify if a drive supports snapshots
Both bdrv_can_snapshot() and bdrv_has_snapshot() does not work as advertized.

First issue: Their names implies different porpouses, but they do the same thing
and have exactly the same code. Maybe copied and pasted and forgotten?
bdrv_has_snapshot() is called in various places for actually checking if there
is snapshots or not.

Second issue: the way bdrv_can_snapshot() verifies if a block driver supports or
not snapshots does not catch all cases. E.g.: a raw image.

So when do_savevm() is called, first thing it does is to set a global
BlockDriverState to save the VM memory state calling get_bs_snapshots().

static BlockDriverState *get_bs_snapshots(void)
{
    BlockDriverState *bs;
    DriveInfo *dinfo;

    if (bs_snapshots)
        return bs_snapshots;
    QTAILQ_FOREACH(dinfo, &drives, next) {
        bs = dinfo->bdrv;
        if (bdrv_can_snapshot(bs))
            goto ok;
    }
    return NULL;
 ok:
    bs_snapshots = bs;
    return bs;
}

bdrv_can_snapshot() may return a BlockDriverState that does not support
snapshots and do_savevm() goes on.

Later on in do_savevm(), we find:

    QTAILQ_FOREACH(dinfo, &drives, next) {
        bs1 = dinfo->bdrv;
        if (bdrv_has_snapshot(bs1)) {
            /* Write VM state size only to the image that contains the state */
            sn->vm_state_size = (bs == bs1 ? vm_state_size : 0);
            ret = bdrv_snapshot_create(bs1, sn);
            if (ret < 0) {
                monitor_printf(mon, "Error while creating snapshot on '%s'\n",
                               bdrv_get_device_name(bs1));
            }
        }
    }

bdrv_has_snapshot(bs1) is not checking if the device does support or has
snapshots as explained above. Only in bdrv_snapshot_create() the device is
actually checked for snapshot support.

So, in cases where the first device supports snapshots, and the second does not,
the snapshot on the first will happen anyways. I believe this is not a good
behavior. It should be an all or nothing process.

This patch addresses these issues by making bdrv_can_snapshot() actually do
what it must do and enforces better tests to avoid errors in the middle of
do_savevm(). bdrv_has_snapshot() is removed and replaced by bdrv_can_snapshot()
where appropriate.

bdrv_can_snapshot() was moved from savevm.c to block.c. It makes more sense to me.

The loadvm_state() function was updated too to enforce that when loading a VM at
least all writable devices must support snapshots too.

Jes Sorensen 3e82990b52 Cleanup: bdrv_open() no need to shift total_size just to shift back.
In bdrv_open() there is no need to shift total_size >> 9 just to
multiply it by 512 again just a few lines later, since this is the
only place the variable is used.

Mask with BDRV_SECTOR_MASK to protect against case where we are
passed a corrupted image.

Luiz Capitulino 637503d122 Monitor: Drop QMP documentation from code
Previous commit added QMP documentation to the qemu-monitor.hx
file, it's is a copy of this information.

While it's good to keep it near code, maintaining two copies of
the same information is too hard and has little benefit as we
don't expect client writers to consult the code to find how to
use a QMP command.

Nicholas A. Bellinger 1a39685910 block: Add missing bdrv_delete() for SG_IO BlockDriver in find_image_format()
This patch adds a missing bdrv_delete() call in find_image_format() so that a
SG_IO BlockDriver properly releases the temporary BlockDriverState *bs created
from bdrv_file_open()

MORITA Kazutaka b50cbabc1b add support for protocol driver create_options
This patch enables protocol drivers to use their create options which
are not supported by the format.  For example, protcol drivers can use
a backing_file option with raw format.

Alexander Graf 016f5cf6ff Add cache=unsafe parameter to -drive
Usually the guest can tell the host to flush data to disk. In some cases we
don't want to flush though, but try to keep everything in cache.

So let's add a new cache value to -drive that allows us to set the cache
policy to most aggressive, disabling flushes. We call this mode "unsafe",
as guest data is not guaranteed to survive host crashes anymore.

This patch also adds a noop function for aio, so we can do nothing in AIO
fashion.

Nicholas Bellinger 396759ad4a block: Add SG_IO device check in refresh_total_sectors()
This patch adds a special case check for scsi-generic devices in
refresh_total_sectors() to skip the subsequent BlockDriver->bdrv_getlength()
that will be returning -ESPIPE from block/raw-posic.c:raw_getlength() for
BlockDriverState->sg=1 devices.
