8eb029c26e block: Assert qiov length matches request length
At least raw-posix relies on this because it can allocate bounce buffers
based on the request length, but access it using all of the qiov entries
later.

33f461e0c5 block: Make qiov match the request size until EOF
If a read request goes across EOF, the block driver sees a shortened
request that stops at EOF (the rest is memsetted in block.c), however
the original qiov was used for this request.

This patch makes the qiov size match the request size, avoiding a
potential buffer overflow in raw-posix.

01fb2705bd block: Fix bdrv_is_allocated() return value
bdrv_is_allocated() should return either 0 or 1 in successful cases.
We're lucky that currently, the callers that rely on this (e.g. because
they check for ret == 1) don't seem to break badly. They just might skip
some optimisation or in the case of qemu-io 'map' print separate lines
where a single line would suffice. In theory, a wrong allocation status
could lead to image corruption with certain operations, so let's fix
this quickly.

54e2690090 block: extend block-commit to accept a string for the backing file
On some image chains, QEMU may not always be able to resolve the
filenames properly, when updating the backing file of an image
after a block commit.

For instance, certain relative pathnames may fail, or drives may
have been specified originally by file descriptor (e.g. /dev/fd/???),
or a relative protocol pathname may have been used.

In these instances, QEMU may lack the information to be able to make
the correct choice, but the user or management layer most likely does
have that knowledge.

With this extension to the block-commit api, the user is able to change
the backing file of the overlay image as part of the block-commit
operation.

This allows the change to be 'safe', in the sense that if the attempt
to write the overlay image metadata fails, then the block-commit
operation returns failure, without disrupting the guest.

If the commit top is the active layer, then specifying the backing
file string will be treated as an error (there is no overlay image
to modify in that case).

If a backing file string is not specified in the command, the backing
file string to use is determined in the same manner as it was
previously.

9c75e168bc block: check for RESIZE blocker in the QMP command, not bdrv_truncate()
If we check for the RESIZE blocker in bdrv_truncate(), that means a
commit will fail if the overlay layer is larger than the base, due to
the backing blocker.

This is a regression in behavior from 2.0; currently, commit will try to
grow the size of the base image to match the overlay size, if the
overlay size is larger.

By moving this into the QMP command qmp_block_resize(), it allows
usage of bdrv_truncate() within block jobs.

2bd3bce8ef block: asynchronously stop the VM on I/O errors
With virtio-blk dataplane, I/O errors might occur while QEMU is
not in the main I/O thread.  However, it's invalid to call vm_stop
when we're neither in a VCPU thread nor in the main I/O thread,
even if we were to take the iothread mutex around it.

To avoid this problem, we can raise a request to the main I/O thread,
similar to what QEMU does when vm_stop is called from a CPU thread.
We know that bdrv_error_action is called from an AIO callback, and
the moment at which the callback will fire is not well-defined; it
depends on the moment at which the disk or OS finishes the operation,
which can happen at any time.  Note that QEMU is certainly not in a CPU
thread and we do not need to call cpu_stop_current() like vm_stop() does.

However, we need to ensure that any action taken by management will
result in correct detection of the error _and_ a running VM.  In particular:

- the event must be raised after the iostatus has been set, so that
"info block" will return an iostatus that matches the event.

- the VM must be stopped after the iostatus has been set, so that
"info block" will return an iostatus that matches the runstate.

The ordering between the STOP and BLOCK_IO_ERROR events is preserved;
BLOCK_IO_ERROR is documented to come first.

This makes bdrv_error_action() thread safe (assuming QMP events are,
which is attacked by a separate series).

13af91ebf0 throttle: add throttle_detach/attach_aio_context()

dcd042282d block: add bdrv_set_aio_context()
Up until now all BlockDriverState instances have used the QEMU main loop
for fd handlers, timers, and BHs.  This is not scalable on SMP guests
and hosts so we need to move to a model with multiple event loops on

bdrv_set_aio_context() assigns the AioContext event loop to use for a
particular BlockDriverState.  It first detaches the entire
BlockDriverState graph from the current AioContext and then attaches to
the new AioContext.

This function will be used by virtio-blk data-plane to assign a
BlockDriverState to its IOThread AioContext.  Make

fbe40ff780 block: Introduce op_blockers to BlockDriverState
BlockDriverState.op_blockers is an array of lists with BLOCK_OP_TYPE_MAX
elements. Each list is a list of blockers of an operation type
(BlockOpType), that marks this BDS as currently blocked for a certain
type of operation with reason errors stored in the list. The rule of
usage is:

 * BDS user who wants to take an operation should check if there's any
   blocker of the type with bdrv_op_is_blocked().

 * BDS user who wants to block certain types of operation, should call
   bdrv_op_block (or bdrv_op_block_all to block all types of operations,
   which is similar to the existing bdrv_set_in_use()).

 * A blocker is only referenced by op_blockers, so the lifecycle is
   managed by caller, and shouldn't be lost until unblock, so typically
   a caller does these:

   - Allocate a blocker with error_setg or similar, call bdrv_op_block()
     to block some operations.
   - Hold the blocker, do his job.
   - Unblock operations that it blocked, with the same reason pointer
     passed to bdrv_op_unblock().
   - Release the blocker with error_free().

b1e6fc0817 block: Fix open flags with BDRV_O_SNAPSHOT
The immediately visible effect of this patch is that it fixes committing
a temporary snapshot to its backing file. Previously, it would fail with
a "permission denied" error because bdrv_inherited_flags() forced the
backing file to be read-only, ignoring the r/w reopen of bdrv_commit().

The bigger problem this revealed is that the original open flags must
actually only be applied to the temporary snapshot, and the original
image file must be treated as a backing file of the temporary snapshot
and get the right flags for that.

Use the same function as bdrv_open() for determining what the right

bs->file loses BDRV_O_CACHE_WB or BDRV_O_UNMAP if bs doesn't have it as
well.

7e3d98dd31 Revert "block: another bdrv_append fix"
This reverts commit 3a389e7926. The commit
was wrong and what it tried to fix just works today without any change.

What the commit tried to fix:

    When creating live snapshots, the new image file is opened with
    BDRV_O_NO_BACKING because the whole backing chain is already opened.
    It is then appended to the chain using bdrv_append(). The result of
    this was that the image had a backing file, but BDRV_O_NO_BACKING
    was still set. This is obviously inconsistent.

    There used to be some places in qemu that closed and image and then
    opened it again, with its old flags (a bdrv_open()/close() sequence
    involves reopening the whole backing file chain, too). In this case
    the BDRV_O_NO_BACKING flag meant that the backing chain wasn't
    reopened and only the top layer was left.

    (Most, but not all of these places are replaced by bdrv_reopen()
    today, which doesn't touch the backing files at all.)

    Other places that looked at bs->open_flags weren't interested in
    BDRV_O_NO_BACKING, so no breakage there.

What it actually did:

    The commit moved the BDRV_O_NO_BACKING away to the backing file.
    Because the bdrv_open()/close() sequences only looked at the flags
    of the top level BlockDriverState and used it for the whole chain,
    the flag didn't hurt there any more. Obviously, it is still
    inconsistent because the backing file may have another backing file,
    but without practical impact.

    At the same time, it swapped all other flags. This is practically
    irrelevant as long as live snapshots only allow opening the new
    layer with the same flags as the old top layer. It still doesn't
    make any sense, and it is a time bomb that explodes as soon as the
    flags can differ.

    bdrv_append_temp_snapshot() is such a case: It adds the new flag
    BDRV_O_TEMPORARY for the temporary snapshot. The swapping of commit
    3a389e79 results in the following nonsensical configuration:

    bs->open_flags:                     BDRV_O_TEMPORARY cleared
    bs->file->open_flags:               BDRV_O_TEMPORARY set
    bs->backing_hd->open_flags:         BDRV_O_TEMPORARY set
    bs->backing_hd->file->open_flags:   BDRV_O_TEMPORARY cleared

    We're still lucky because the format layer ignores the flag and the
    protocol layer happens to get the right value, but sooner or later
    this is bound to go wrong...

What the right fix would have been:

    Simply clear the BDRV_O_NO_BACKING flag when the BlockDriverState is
    appended to an existing backing file chain, because now it does have
    a backing file.

    Commit 4ddc07ca already implemented this silently in bdrv_append(),
    so we don't have to come up with a new fix.

8bfea15dda block: Unlink temporary files in raw-posix/win32
Instead of having unlink() calls in the generic block layer, where we
aren't even guarateed to have a file name, move them to those block
drivers that are actually used and that always have a filename. Gets us
rid of some #ifdefs as well.

The patch also converts bs->is_temporary to a new BDRV_O_TEMPORARY open
flag so that it is inherited in the protocol layer and the raw-posix and
raw-win32 drivers can unlink the file.

Copy on Read makes sense on the format level where backing files are

e855e4fb7b block: Ignore duplicate or NULL format_name in bdrv_iterate_format
Some block drivers have multiple BlockDriver instances with identical
format_name fields (e.g. gluster, nbd).

Both qemu-img and qemu will use bdrv_iterate_format() to list the
supported formats when a help option is invoked.  As protocols and
formats may register multiple drivers, redundant listings of formats
occur (e.g., "Supported formats: ... gluster gluster gluster gluster ...
").

Since the list of driver formats will be small, this performs a simple
linear search on format_name, and ignores any duplicates.

The end result change is that the iterator will no longer receive
duplicate string names, nor will it receive NULL pointers.
