The doc comments for bdrv_drain_all() and bdrv_drain() are outdated: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

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.

* Write
* Zero writes and making the image empty
* Flush
* Discard
* ioctl
* Tracked requests and queuing
* Throttling and copy-on-read

* Refreshing block limits
