The way that attaching bs->file worked was a bit unusual in that it was
the only child that would be attached to a node which is not opened yet.
Because of this, the block layer couldn't know yet which permissions the
driver would eventually need.
This patch moves the point where bs->file is attached to the beginning
of the individual .bdrv_open() implementations, so drivers already know
what they are going to do with the child. This is also more consistent
with how driver-specific children work.
For a moment, bdrv_open() gets its own BdrvChild to perform image
probing, but instead of directly assigning this BdrvChild to the BDS, it
becomes a temporary one and the node name is passed as an option to the
drivers, so that they can simply use bdrv_open_child() to create another
reference for their own use.
This duplicated child for (the not opened yet) bs is not the final
state, a follow-up patch will change the image probing code to use a
BlockBackend, which is completely independent of bs.

The metadata overlap checks introduced in a40f1c2add help detect
corruption in the qcow2 image by verifying that data writes don't
overlap with existing metadata sections.
The 'refcount-block' check in particular iterates over the refcount
table in order to get the addresses of all refcount blocks and check
that none of them overlap with the region where we want to write.
The problem with the refcount table is that since it always occupies
complete clusters its size is usually very big. With the default
values of cluster_size=64KB and refcount_bits=16 this table holds 8192
entries, each one of them enough to map 2GB worth of host clusters.
So unless we're using images with several TB of allocated data this
table is going to be mostly empty, and iterating over it is a waste of
CPU. If the storage backend is fast enough this can have an effect on
I/O performance.
This patch keeps the index of the last used (i.e. non-zero) entry in
the refcount table and updates it every time the table changes. The
refcount-block overlap check then uses that index instead of reading
the whole table.
In my tests with a 4GB qcow2 file stored in RAM this doubles the
amount of write IOPS.

The qcow2_make_empty() function is reached during 'qemu-img commit',
in order to clear out ALL clusters of an image. However, if the
image cannot use the fast code path (true if the image is format
0.10, or if the image contains a snapshot), the cluster size is
larger than 512, and the image is larger than 2G in size, then our
choice of sector_step causes problems. Since it is not cluster
aligned, but qcow2_discard_clusters() silently ignores an unaligned
head or tail, we are leaving clusters allocated.
Enhance the testsuite to expose the flaw, and patch the problem by
ensuring our step size is aligned.

Right now, the block layer rounds discard requests, so that
individual drivers are able to assert that discard requests
will never be unaligned. But there are some ISCSI devices
that track and coalesce multiple unaligned requests, turning it
into an actual discard if the requests eventually cover an
entire page, which implies that it is better to always pass
discard requests as low down the stack as possible.
In isolation, this patch has no semantic effect, since the
block layer currently never passes an unaligned request through.
But the block layer already has code that silently ignores
drivers that return -ENOTSUP for a discard request that cannot
be honored (as well as drivers that return 0 even when nothing
was done). But the next patch will update the block layer to
fragment discard requests, so that clients are guaranteed that
they are either dealing with an unaligned head or tail, or an
aligned core, making it similar to the block layer semantics of
write zero fragmentation.

At the qcow2 layer, discard is only possible on a per-cluster
basis; at the moment, qcow2 silently rounds any unaligned
requests to this granularity. However, an upcoming patch will
fix a regression in the block layer ignoring too much of an
unaligned discard request, by changing the block layer to
break up a discard request at alignment boundaries; for that
to work, the block layer must know about our limits.
However, we can't go one step further by changing
qcow2_discard_clusters() to assert that requests are always
aligned, since that helper function is reached on paths
outside of the block layer.

There are no needs to allocate more than one cluster, as we set
avail_out for deflate to one cluster.
Zlib docs (http://www.zlib.net/manual.html) says:
"deflate compresses as much data as possible, and stops when the input
buffer becomes empty or the output buffer becomes full."
So, deflate will not write more than avail_out to output buffer. If
there is not enough space in output buffer for compressed data (it may
be larger than input data) deflate just returns Z_OK. (if all data is
compressed and written to output buffer deflate returns Z_STREAM_END).

This is the final patch for converting the common I/O path to take
a BdrvChild parameter instead of BlockDriverState.
The completion of this conversion means that all users that perform I/O
on an image need to actually hold a reference (in the form of BdrvChild,
possible as part of a BlockBackend) to that image. This also protects
against inconsistent use of BlockBackend vs. BlockDriverState functions
because direct use of a BlockDriverState isn't possible any more and
blk->root is private for block-backends.c.
In addition, we can now distinguish different users in the I/O path,
and the future op blockers work is going to add assertions based on
permissions stored in BdrvChild.

qcow2/qcow: protect against uninitialized encryption key
This commit was designed to prevent future coding bugs which
might cause QEMU to read/write data on an encrypted block
device in plain text mode before a decryption key is set.
It turns out this preventative measure was a little too good,
because we already had a long standing bug where QEMU read
encrypted data in plain text mode during system emulator
startup, in order to guess disk geometry:

So the safety net is correctly preventing QEMU reading cipher
text as if it were plain text, during startup and aborting QEMU
to avoid bad usage of this data.
For added fun this bug only happens if the encrypted qcow2
file happens to have data written to the first cluster,
otherwise the cluster won't be allocated and so qcow2 would
not try the decryption routines at all, just return all 0's.
That no one even noticed, let alone reported, this bug that
has shipped in 2.4.0, 2.5.0 and 2.6.0 shows that the number
of actual users of encrypted qcow2 is approximately zero.
So rather than fix the crash, and backport it to stable
releases, just go ahead with what we have warned users about
and disable any use of qcow2 encryption in the system
emulators. qemu-img/qemu-io/qemu-nbd are still able to access
qcow2 encrypted images for the sake of data conversion.
In the future, qcow2 will gain support for the alternative
luks format, but when this happens it'll be using the
'-object secret' infrastructure for getting keys, which
avoids this problematic scenario entirely.

This changes qcow2 to implement the byte-based .bdrv_co_pwritev
interface rather than the sector-based old one.
As preallocation uses the same allocation function as normal writes, and
the interface of that function needs to be changed, it is converted in
the same patch.

Reading from qcow2 images is now byte granularity.
Most of the affected code in qcow2 actually gets simpler with this
change. The only exception is encryption, which is fixed on 512 bytes
blocks; in order to keep this working, bs->request_alignment is set for
encrypted images.

The problem with excessive flushing was found by a couple of performance
tests:
- parallel directory tree creation (from 2 processes)
- 32 cached writes + fsync at the end in a loop
For the first one results improved from 2.6 loops/sec to 3.5 loops/sec.
Each loop creates 10^3 directories with 10 files in each.
For the second one results improved from ~600 fsync/sec to ~1100
fsync/sec. Though, it was run on SSD so it probably won't show such
performance gain on rotational media.
qcow2_cache_flush() calls bdrv_flush() unconditionally after writing
cache entries of a particular cache. This can lead to as many as
2 additional fdatasyncs inside bdrv_flush.
We can simply skip all fdatasync calls inside qcow2_co_flush_to_os
as bdrv_flush for sure will do the job. These flushes are necessary to
keep the right order of writes to the different caches. Though this is
not necessary in the current code base as this ordering is ensured through
the flush in qcow2_cache_flush_dependency().

Another step towards removing sector-based interfaces: convert
the maximum write and minimum alignment values from sectors to
bytes. Rename the variables to let the compiler check that all
users are converted to the new semantics.
The maximum remains an int as long as BDRV_REQUEST_MAX_SECTORS
is constrained by INT_MAX (this means that we can't even
support a 2G write_zeroes, but just under it) - changing
operation lengths to unsigned or to 64-bits is a much bigger
audit, and debatable if we even want to do it (since at the
core, a 32-bit platform will still have ssize_t as its
underlying limit on write()).
Meanwhile, alignment is changed to 'uint32_t', since it makes no
sense to have an alignment larger than the maximum write, and
less painful to use an unsigned type with well-defined behavior
in bit operations than to have to worry about what happens if
a driver mistakenly supplies a negative alignment.
Add an assert that no one was trying to use sectors to get a
write zeroes larger than 2G, and therefore that a later conversion
to bytes won't be impacted by keeping the limit at 32 bits.

is_zero_cluster() and is_zero_cluster_top_locked() are used only
by qcow2_co_write_zeroes(). The former is too broad (we don't
care if the sectors we are about to overwrite are non-zero, only
that all other sectors in the cluster are zero), so it needs to
be called up to twice but with smaller limits - rename it along
with adding the neeeded parameter. The latter can be inlined for
more compact code.
The testsuite change shows that we now have a sparser top file
when an unaligned write_zeroes overwrites the only portion of
the backing file with data.

Unaligned requests will occupy only one cluster. This is true since the
previous commit. Simplify the code taking this consideration into
account.
In other words, the caller is now buggy if it ever passes us an unaligned
request that crosses cluster boundaries (the only requests that can cross
boundaries will be aligned).
There are no other changes so far.

We should check for (res & BDRV_BLOCK_ZERO) only. The situation when we
will have !(res & BDRV_BLOCK_DATA) and will not have BDRV_BLOCK_ZERO is
not possible for images with bdi.unallocated_blocks_are_zero == true.
For those images where it's false, however, it can happen and we must
not consider the data zeroed then or we would corrupt the image.

There is a possibility that qcow2_co_write_zeroes() will be called
with the partial block. This could be synthetically triggered with
qemu-io -c "write -z 32k 4k"
and can happen in the real life in qemu-nbd. The latter happens under
the following conditions:
(1) qemu-nbd is started with --detect-zeroes=on and is connected to the
kernel NBD client
(2) third party program opens kernel NBD device with O_DIRECT
(3) third party program performs write operation with memory buffer
not aligned to the page
In this case qcow2_co_write_zeroes() is unable to perform the operation
and mark entire cluster as zeroed and returns ENOTSUP. Thus the caller
switches to non-optimized version and writes real zeroes to the disk.
The patch creates a shortcut. If the block is read as zeroes, f.e. if
it is unallocated, the request is extended to cover full block.
User-visible situation with this block is not changed. Before the patch
the block is filled in the image with real zeroes. After that patch the
block is marked as zeroed in metadata. Thus any subsequent changes in
backing store chain are not affected.
Kevin, thank you for a cool suggestion.

We have several block drivers that understand BDRV_REQ_FUA,
and emulate it in the block layer for the rest by a full flush.
But without a way to actually request BDRV_REQ_FUA during a
pass-through blk_pwrite(), FUA-aware block drivers like NBD are
forced to repeat the emulation logic of a full flush regardless
of whether the backend they are writing to could do it more
efficiently.
This patch just wires up a flags argument; followup patches
will actually make use of it in the NBD driver and in qemu-io.

For a couple of releases we have been warning
Encrypted images are deprecated
Support for them will be removed in a future release.
You can use 'qemu-img convert' to convert your image to an unencrypted one.
This warning was issued by system emulators, qemu-img, qemu-nbd
and qemu-io. Such a broad warning was issued because the original
intention was to rip out all the code for dealing with encryption
inside the QEMU block layer APIs.
The new block encryption framework used for the LUKS driver does
not rely on the unloved block layer API for encryption keys,
instead using the QOM 'secret' object type. It is thus no longer
appropriate to warn about encryption unconditionally.
When the qcow/qcow2 drivers are converted to use the new encryption
framework too, it will be practical to keep AES-CBC support present
for use in qemu-img, qemu-io & qemu-nbd to allow for interoperability
with older QEMU versions and liberation of data from existing encrypted
qcow2 files.
This change moves the warning out of the generic block code and
into the qcow/qcow2 drivers. Further, the warning is set to only
appear when running the system emulators, since qemu-img, qemu-io,
qemu-nbd are expected to support qcow2 encryption long term now that
the maint burden has been eliminated.
