Markus Armbruster 1f69c2b022 fdc: Drop broken code for user-defined floppy geometry
bdrv_get_floppy_geometry_hint() fails to store through its parameter
drive when bs has a geometry hint.  Makes fd_revalidate() assign
random crap to drv->drive.

Has been broken that way for ages.  Harmless, because:

* The only way to set a geometry hint is -drive if=none,cyls=...
  Since commit c219331e, probably unintentional.

* The only use of drv->drive is as argument to another
  bdrv_get_floppy_geometry_hint().  Which doesn't use it, since the
  geometry hint is still there.

Drop the broken code, ignore -drive parameter cyls, heads and secs for
floppies even with if=none, just like before commit c219331e.  Matches
-help, which explains cyls, heads, secs as "hard disk physical
geometry".

Paolo Bonzini 4ddc07cac2 block: introduce bdrv_swap, implement bdrv_append on top of it
The new function can be made a bit nicer than bdrv_append.  It swaps the
whole contents, and then swaps back (using the usual t=a;a=b;b=t idiom)
the fields that need to stay on top.  Thus, it does not need explicit
bdrv_detach_dev, bdrv_iostatus_disable, etc.

Markus Armbruster f8d6bba1c1 block: Replace bdrv_get_format() by bdrv_get_format_name()
So callers don't need to know anything about maximum name length.
Returning a pointer is safe, because the name string lives as long as

Kevin Wolf 4534ff5426 qemu-img check -r for repairing images
The QED block driver already provides the functionality to not only
detect inconsistencies in images, but also fix them. However, this
functionality cannot be manually invoked with qemu-img, but the
check happens only automatically during bdrv_open().

This adds a -r switch to qemu-img check that allows manual invocation
of an image repair.

Jim Meyering eba25057b9 block: prevent snapshot mode $TMPDIR symlink attack
In snapshot mode, bdrv_open creates an empty temporary file without
checking for mkstemp or close failure, and ignoring the possibility
of a buffer overrun given a surprisingly long $TMPDIR.
Change the get_tmp_filename function to return int (not void),
so that it can inform its two callers of those failures.
Also avoid the risk of buffer overrun and do not ignore mkstemp
or close failure.
Update both callers (in block.c and vvfat.c) to propagate
temp-file-creation failure to their callers.

get_tmp_filename creates and closes an empty file, while its
callers later open that presumed-existing file with O_CREAT.
The problem was that a malicious user could provoke mkstemp failure
and race to create a symlink with the selected temporary file name,
thus causing the qemu process (usually root owned) to open through
the symlink, overwriting an attacker-chosen file.

This addresses CVE-2012-2652.

Paolo Bonzini f53f4da9c6 block: simplify path_is_absolute
On Windows, all the logic is already in is_windows_drive and
is_windows_drive_prefix.  On POSIX, there is no need to look
out for colons.

The win32 code changes the behaviour in some cases, we could have
something like "d:foo.img". The old code would treat it as relative
path, the new one as absolute. Now the path is absolute, because to
go from c:/program files/blah to d:foo.img you cannot say c:/program
files/blah/d:foo.img.  You have to say d:foo.img.  But you could also
say it's relative because (I think, at least it was like that in DOS
15 years ago) d:foo.img is relative to the current path of drive D.
Considering how path_is_absolute is used by path_combine, I think it's
better to treat it as absolute.

Paolo Bonzini fa4478d5c8 block: wait for job callback in block_job_cancel_sync
The limitation on not having I/O after cancellation cannot really be
kept.  Even streaming has a very small race window where you could
cancel a job and have it report completion.  If this window is hit,
bdrv_change_backing_file() will yield and possibly cause accesses to
dangling pointers etc.

So, let's just assume that we cannot know exactly what will happen
after the coroutine has set busy to false.  We can set a very lax
condition:

- if we cancel the job, the coroutine won't set it to false again
(and hence will not call co_sleep_ns again).

- block_job_cancel_sync will wait for the coroutine to exit, which
pretty much ensures no race.

Instead, we track the coroutine that executes the job and put very
strict conditions on what to do while it is quiescent (busy = false).
First of all, the coroutine must never set busy = false while the job
has been cancelled.  Second, the coroutine can be reentered arbitrarily
while it is quiescent, so you cannot really do anything but co_sleep_ns at
that time.  This condition is obeyed by the block_job_sleep_ns function.

Paolo Bonzini 3e914655f2 block: fix streaming/closing race
Streaming can issue I/O while qcow2_close is running.  This causes the
L2 caches to become very confused or, alternatively, could cause a
segfault when the streaming coroutine is reentered after closing its
block device.  The fix is to cancel streaming jobs when closing their
underlying device.

The cancellation must be synchronous, on the other hand qemu_aio_wait
will not restart a coroutine that is sleeping in co_sleep.  So add
a flag saying whether streaming has in-flight I/O.  If the busy flag
is false, the coroutine is quiescent and, when cancelled, will not
issue any new I/O.

This protects streaming against closing, but not against deleting.
We have a reference count protecting us against concurrent deletion,
but I still added an assertion to ensure nothing bad happens.

Jeff Cody 8802d1fdd4 qapi: Introduce blockdev-group-snapshot-sync command
This is a QAPI/QMP only command to take a snapshot of a group of
devices. This is similar to the blockdev-snapshot-sync command, except
blockdev-group-snapshot-sync accepts a list devices, filenames, and
formats.

It is attempted to keep the snapshot of the group atomic; if the
creation or open of any of the new snapshots fails, then all of
the new snapshots are abandoned, and the name of the snapshot image
that failed is returned.  The failure case should not interrupt
any operations.

Rather than use bdrv_close() along with a subsequent bdrv_open() to
perform the pivot, the original image is never closed and the new
image is placed 'in front' of the original image via manipulation
of the BlockDriverState fields.  Thus, once the new snapshot image
has been successfully created, there are no more failure points
before pivoting to the new snapshot.

This allows the group of disks to remain consistent with each other,
even across snapshot failures.

Luiz Capitulino 329c0a48a9 block: Rename bdrv_mon_event() & BlockMonEventAction
They are QMP events, not monitor events. Rename them accordingly.

Also, move bdrv_emit_qmp_error_event() up in the file. A new event will
be added soon and it's good to have them next each other.

Stefan Hajnoczi 79c053bde9 block: perform zero-detection during copy-on-read
Copy-on-Read populates the image file with data read from a backing
image.  In order to avoid bloating the image file when all zeroes are
read we should scan the buffer and perform an optimized zero write
operation.

Stefan Hajnoczi f08f2ddae0 block: add .bdrv_co_write_zeroes() interface
The ability to zero regions of an image file is a useful primitive for
higher-level features such as image streaming or zero write detection.

Image formats may support an optimized metadata representation instead
of writing zeroes into the image file.  This allows zero writes to be
potentially faster than regular write operations and also preserve
sparseness of the image file.

The .bdrv_co_write_zeroes() interface should be implemented by block
drivers that wish to provide efficient zeroing.

Note that this operation is different from the discard operation, which
may leave the contents of the region indeterminate.  That means
discarded blocks are not guaranteed to contain zeroes and may contain
junk data instead.
