As a first step towards moving I/O throttling to the BlockBackend level,
this patch changes all pointers in struct ThrottleGroup from referencing
a BlockDriverState to referencing a BlockBackend.
This change is valid because we made sure that throttling can only be
enabled on BDSes which have a BB attached.

The block layer has a couple of cases where it can lose
Force Unit Access semantics when writing a large block of
zeroes, such that the request returns before the zeroes
have been guaranteed to land on underlying media.
SCSI does not support FUA during WRITESAME(10/16); FUA is only
supported if it falls back to WRITE(10/16). But where the
underlying device is new enough to not need a fallback, it
means that any upper layer request with FUA semantics was
silently ignoring BDRV_REQ_FUA.
Conversely, NBD has situations where it can support FUA but not
ZERO_WRITE; when that happens, the generic block layer fallback
to bdrv_driver_pwritev() (or the older bdrv_co_writev() in qemu
2.6) was losing the FUA flag.
The problem of losing flags unrelated to ZERO_WRITE has been
latent in bdrv_co_do_write_zeroes() since commit aa7bfbff, but
back then, it did not matter because there was no FUA flag. It
became observable when commit 93f5e6d8 paved the way for flags
that can impact correctness, when we should have been using
bdrv_co_writev_flags() with modified flags. Compare to commit
9eeb6dd, which got flag manipulation right in
bdrv_co_do_zero_pwritev().
Symptoms: I tested with qemu-io with default writethrough cache
(which is supposed to use FUA semantics on every write), and
targetted an NBD client connected to a server that intentionally
did not advertise NBD_FLAG_SEND_FUA. When doing 'write 0 512',
the NBD client sent two operations (NBD_CMD_WRITE then
NBD_CMD_FLUSH) to get the fallback FUA semantics; but when doing
'write -z 0 512', the NBD client sent only NBD_CMD_WRITE.
The fix is do to a cleanup bdrv_co_flush() at the end of the
operation if any step in the middle relied on a BDS that does
not natively support FUA for that step (note that we don't
need to flush after every operation, if the operation is broken
into chunks based on bounce-buffer sizing). Each BDS gains a
new flag .supported_zero_flags, which parallels the use of
.supported_write_flags but only when accessing a zero write
operation (the flags MUST be different, because of SCSI having
different semantics based on WRITE vs. WRITESAME; and also
because BDRV_REQ_MAY_UNMAP only makes sense on zero writes).
Also fix some documentation to describe -ENOTSUP semantics,
particularly since iscsi depends on those semantics.
Down the road, we may want to add a driver where its
.bdrv_co_pwritev() honors all three of BDRV_REQ_FUA,
BDRV_REQ_ZERO_WRITE, and BDRV_REQ_MAY_UNMAP, and advertise
this via bs->supported_write_flags for blocks opened by that
driver; such a driver should NOT supply .bdrv_co_write_zeroes
nor .supported_zero_flags. But none of the drivers touched
in this patch want to do that (the act of writing zeroes is
different enough from normal writes to deserve a second
callback).

Pre-patch, .supported_write_flags lives at the driver level, which
means we are blindly declaring that all block devices using a
given driver will either equally support FUA, or that we need a
fallback at the block layer. But there are drivers where FUA
support is a per-block decision: the NBD block driver is dependent
on the remote server advertising NBD_FLAG_SEND_FUA (and has
fallback code to duplicate the flush that the block layer would do
if NBD had not set .supported_write_flags); and the iscsi block
driver is dependent on the mode sense bits advertised by the
underlying device (and is currently silently ignoring FUA requests
if the underlying device does not support FUA).
The fix is to make supported flags as a per-BDS option, set during
.bdrv_open(). This patch moves the variable and fixes NBD and iscsi
to set it only conditionally; later patches will then further
simplify the NBD driver to quit duplicating work done at the block
layer, as well as tackle the fact that SCSI does not support FUA
semantics on WRITESAME(10/16) but only on WRITE(10/16).

The removed code is in fact dead code since commit a8823a3b ('block: Use

Using the nested aio_poll() in coroutine is a bad idea. This patch
replaces the aio_poll loop in bdrv_drain with a BH, if called in
coroutine.
For example, the bdrv_drain() in mirror.c can hang when a guest issued
request is pending on it in qemu_co_mutex_lock().
Mirror coroutine in this case has just finished a request, and the block
job is about to complete. It calls bdrv_drain() which waits for the
other coroutine to complete. The other coroutine is a scsi-disk request.
The deadlock happens when the latter is in turn pending on the former to
yield/terminate, in qemu_co_mutex_lock(). The state flow is as below
(assuming a qcow2 image):
mirror coroutine scsi-disk coroutine
-------------------------------------------------------------
do last write
qcow2:qemu_co_mutex_lock()
...
scsi disk read
tracked request begin
qcow2:qemu_co_mutex_lock.enter
qcow2:qemu_co_mutex_unlock()
bdrv_drain
while (has tracked request)
aio_poll()
In the scsi-disk coroutine, the qemu_co_mutex_lock() will never return
because the mirror coroutine is blocked in the aio_poll(blocking=true).
With this patch, the added qemu_coroutine_yield() allows the scsi-disk
coroutine to make progress as expected:
mirror coroutine scsi-disk coroutine
-------------------------------------------------------------
do last write
qcow2:qemu_co_mutex_lock()
...
scsi disk read
tracked request begin
qcow2:qemu_co_mutex_lock.enter

compiler.h, os-posix.h and os-win32.h, all of which are doing a
similar job to this file and are under similar constraints."
qapi/error.h doesn't do a similar job, and it doesn't adhere to
similar constraints: it includes qapi-types.h. That's in excess of
100KiB of crap most .c files don't actually need.
Add the typedef to qemu/typedefs.h, and include that instead of
qapi/error.h. Include qapi/error.h in .c files that need it and don't
get it now. Include qapi-types.h in qom/object.h for uint16List.
Update scripts/clean-includes accordingly. Update it further to match
reality: replace config.h by config-target.h, add sysemu/os-posix.h,
sysemu/os-win32.h. Update the list of includes in the qemu/osdep.h
comment quoted above similarly.
This reduces the number of objects depending on qapi/error.h from "all

Furthermore, those statistics are supposed to be specific for a certain

bdrv_get_stats()); on the other hand, wr_highest_sector may be a rather
important information to know for each BDS. When BlockAcctStats is

Finally, wr_highest_sector is renamed to wr_highest_offset and given the
appropriate meaning. Externally, it is represented as an offset so there
is no point in doing something different internally. Its definition is
changed to match that in qapi/block-core.json which is "the offset after

The doc comments for bdrv_drain_all() and bdrv_drain() are outdated:
* The bdrv_drain() comment is a poor man's bdrv_lock()/bdrv_unlock()
which Fam Zheng is currently developing. Unfortunately this warning
was never really enough because devices keep submitting I/O and op
blockers don't prevent that.
* The bdrv_drain_all() comment is still partially correct but reflects
the nature of the implementation rather than API documentation.
Do make it clear that bdrv_drain() is only appropriate within an
AioContext. For anything spanning AioContexts you need
bdrv_drain_all().

Unsetting dirty globally with discard is not very correct. The discard may zero
out sectors (depending on can_write_zeroes_with_unmap), we should replicate
this change to destination side to make sure that the guest sees the same data.
Calling bdrv_reset_dirty also troubles mirror job because the hbitmap iterator
doesn't expect unsetting of bits after current position.
So let's do it the opposite way which fixes both problems: set the dirty bits
if we are to discard it.

During migration, QEMU uses fsync()/fdatasync() on the open file
descriptor for read-write block devices to flush data just before
stopping the VM.
However, fsync() on a scsi-generic device returns -EINVAL which
causes the migration to fail. This patch skips flushing data in case
of an SG device, since submitting SCSI commands directly via an SG
character device (e.g. /dev/sg0) bypasses the page cache completely,
anyway.
Note that fsync() not only flushes the page cache but also the disk
cache. The scsi-generic device never sends flushes, and for
migration it assumes that the same SCSI device is used by the
destination host, so it does not issue any SCSI SYNCHRONIZE CACHE
(10) command.
Finally, remove the bdrv_is_sg() test from iscsi_co_flush() since
this is now redundant (we flush the underlying protocol at the end
of bdrv_co_flush() which, with this patch, we never reach).

After the commit 9b536adc ("block: acquire AioContext in
bdrv_drain_all()") the aio_poll() function got called for every
BlockDriverState, in assumption that every device may have its own
AioContext. If we have thousands of disks attached, there are a lot of
BlockDriverStates but only a few AioContexts, leading to tons of
unnecessary aio_poll() calls.
This patch changes the bdrv_drain_all() function allowing it find shared
AioContexts and to call aio_poll() only for unique ones.

The throttle group support use a cooperative round robin scheduling
algorithm.
The principles of the algorithm are simple:
- Each BDS of the group is used as a token in a circular way.
- The active BDS computes if a wait must be done and arms the right
timer.
- If a wait must be done the token timer will be armed so the token
will become the next active BDS.

Group throttling will share ThrottleState between multiple bs.
As a consequence the ThrottleState will be accessed by multiple aio
context.
Timers are tied to their aio context so they must go out of the
ThrottleState structure.
This commit paves the way for each bs of a common ThrottleState to
have its own timer.

A bit of Boolean algebra (and common sense) tells us that the
second "if" here is looking for blocks that are not allocated.
This is the opposite of the "if" that sets BDRV_BLOCK_ALLOCATED,

For zero write, callers pass in NULL qiov (qemu-io "write -z" or
scsi-disk "write same").
Commit fc3959e466 fixed bdrv_co_write_zeroes which is the common case
for this bug, but it still exists in bdrv_aio_write_zeroes. A simpler
fix would be in bdrv_co_do_pwritev which is the NULL dereference point
and covers both cases.
So don't access it in bdrv_co_do_pwritev in this case, use three aligned
writes.
[Initialize ret to 0 in bdrv_co_do_zero_pwritev() to avoid uninitialized
variable warning with gcc 4.9.2.

The following sequence
int fd = open(argv[1], O_RDWR | O_CREAT | O_DIRECT, 0644);
for (i = 0; i < 100000; i++)
write(fd, buf, 4096);
performs 5% better if buf is aligned to 4096 bytes.
The difference is quite reliable.
On the other hand we do not want at the moment to enforce bounce
buffering if guest request is aligned to 512 bytes.
The patch changes default bounce buffer optimal alignment to
MAX(page size, 4k). 4k is chosen as maximal known sector size on real
HDD.
The justification of the performance improve is quite interesting.
From the kernel point of view each request to the disk was split
by two. This could be seen by blktrace like this:
9,0 11 1 0.000000000 11151 Q WS 312737792 + 1023 [qemu-img]
9,0 11 2 0.000007938 11151 Q WS 312738815 + 8 [qemu-img]
9,0 11 3 0.000030735 11151 Q WS 312738823 + 1016 [qemu-img]
9,0 11 4 0.000032482 11151 Q WS 312739839 + 8 [qemu-img]
9,0 11 5 0.000041379 11151 Q WS 312739847 + 1016 [qemu-img]
9,0 11 6 0.000042818 11151 Q WS 312740863 + 8 [qemu-img]
9,0 11 7 0.000051236 11151 Q WS 312740871 + 1017 [qemu-img]
9,0 5 1 0.169071519 11151 Q WS 312741888 + 1023 [qemu-img]
After the patch the pattern becomes normal:
9,0 6 1 0.000000000 12422 Q WS 314834944 + 1024 [qemu-img]
9,0 6 2 0.000038527 12422 Q WS 314835968 + 1024 [qemu-img]
9,0 6 3 0.000072849 12422 Q WS 314836992 + 1024 [qemu-img]
9,0 6 4 0.000106276 12422 Q WS 314838016 + 1024 [qemu-img]
and the amount of requests sent to disk (could be calculated counting
number of lines in the output of blktrace) is reduced about 2 times.
Both qemu-img and qemu-io are affected while qemu-kvm is not. The guest
does his job well and real requests comes properly aligned (to page).

The patch introduces new concept: minimal memory alignment for bounce
buffers. Original so called "optimal" value is actually minimal required
value for aligment. It should be used for validation that the IOVec
is properly aligned and bounce buffer is not required.
Though, from the performance point of view, it would be better if
bounce buffer or IOVec allocated by QEMU will be aligned stricter.
The patch does not change any alignment value yet.

This is the behavior in the operating system, for example Linux's
blkdev_write_iter has the following:
if (bdev_read_only(I_BDEV(bd_inode)))
return -EPERM;
This does not apply to opening a device for read/write, when the
device only supports read-only operation. In this case any of
EACCES, EPERM or EROFS is acceptable depending on why writing is
not possible.

file so there are fewer conflicts and the code is easier to maintain.
Extract I/O request processing code:
* Read
* Write
* Zero writes and making the image empty
* Flush
* Discard
* ioctl
* Tracked requests and queuing
* Throttling and copy-on-read
* Block status and allocated functions
* Refreshing block limits
* Reading/writing vmstate
* qemu_blockalign() and friends
