It is not necessary to adjust the slice time at runtime. We already
extend the current slice in order to carry over accounting into the next
slice. Changing the actual slice time value introduces oscillations.
The guest may experience large changes in throughput or IOPS from one
moment to the next when slice times are adjusted.

I/O throttling relies on bdrv_acct_done() which is called when a request
completes. This leaves a blind spot since we only charge for completed
requests, not submitted requests.
For example, if there is 1 operation remaining in this time slice the
guest could submit 3 operations and they will all be submitted
successfully since they don't actually get accounted for until they
complete.
Originally we probably thought this is okay since the requests will be
accounted when the time slice is extended. In practice it causes
fluctuations since the guest can exceed its I/O limit and it will be
punished for this later on.
Account for I/O upon submission so that I/O limits are enforced
properly.

bdrv_open_common() implements direct use of protocols by copying the
pre-opened BlockDriverStates to bs using bdrv_swap(). It did however
first set some fields in bs, which end up in file after the swap. When
bdrv_open() destroys file, it appears to be open, and because it isn't,
qemu could segfault while trying to close it.
Reorder the operations to return immediately in such cases so that file
is correctly detected as closed.

After this patch, using -drive with an empty file name continues to open
the file if driver-specific options are used. If no driver-specific
options are specified, the semantics stay as it was: It defines a drive
without an inserted medium.
In order to achieve this, bdrv_open() must be made safe to work with a
NULL filename parameter. The assumption that is made is that only block
drivers which implement bdrv_parse_filename() support using driver
specific options and could therefore work without a filename. These
drivers must make sure to cope with NULL in their implementation of
.bdrv_open() (this is only NBD for now). For all other drivers, the
block layer code will make sure to error out before calling into their
code - they can't possibly work without a filename.
Now an NBD connection can be opened like this:
qemu-system-x86_64 -drive file.driver=nbd,file.port=1234,file.host=::1

During a commit of 'all' using the HMP non-live commit, the operation
is aborted and returns error on the first error enountered. When
non-COW drives are in use (e.g. ejected floppy, cdrom, or drives without
a backing parent), that means a commit all will return an error of either
-ENOMEDIUM or -ENOTSUP. This is not desirable, so for the 'all' commit
case, only attempt the commit if both bs->drv and bs->backing_hd are
present.
More succinctly: 'commit all' now means a commit on all COW drives.
This means an individual commit to a specific non-COW drive will still
return the appropriate error (-ENOMEDIUM if eject / not present, -ENOTSUP
if no backing file).

It is better to present homogeneous hardware independent of the storage
technology that is chosen on the host, hence we make discard a host
parameter; the user can choose whether to pass it down to the image
format and protocol, or to ignore it.
Using DISCARD with filesystems can cause very severe fragmentation, so it
is left default-off for now. This can change later when we implement the
"anchor" operation for efficient management of preallocated files.
There is still one choice to make: whether DISCARD has an effect on the
dirty bitmap or not. I chose yes, though there is a disadvantage: if
the guest is buggy and issues discards for data that is in use, there
will be no way to migrate storage for that guest without downgrading
the machine type to an older one.

bdrv_io_limits_enable() starts a new slice, but does not set io_base
correctly for that slice.
Here is how io_base is used:
bytes_base = bs->nr_bytes[is_write] - bs->io_base.bytes[is_write];
bytes_res = (unsigned) nb_sectors * BDRV_SECTOR_SIZE;
if (bytes_base + bytes_res <= bytes_limit) {
/* no wait */
} else {
/* operation needs to be throttled */
}
As a result, any I/O operations that are triggered between now and
bs->slice_end are incorrectly limited. If 10 MB of data has been
written since the VM was started, QEMU thinks that 10 MB of data has
been written in this slice. This leads to a I/O lockup in the guest.
We fix this by delaying the start of a new slice to the next
call of bdrv_exceed_io_limits().

AIO control blocks are frequently acquired and released because each aio
request involves at least one AIOCB. Therefore, we pool them to avoid
heap allocation overhead.
The problem with the freelist approach in AIOPool is thread-safety. If
we want BlockDriverStates to associate with AioContexts that execute in
multiple threads, then a global freelist becomes a problem.
This patch drops the freelist and instead uses g_slice_alloc() which is
tuned for per-thread fixed-size object pools. qemu_aio_get() and
qemu_aio_release() are now thread-safe.
Note that the change from g_malloc0() to g_slice_alloc() should be safe
since the freelist reuse case doesn't zero the AIOCB either.
