89c9bc3d14 block: Fix regression for MinGW (assertion caused by short string)
The local string tmp_filename is passed to function get_tmp_filename
which expects a string with minimum size MAX_PATH for w32 hosts.

MAX_PATH is 260 and PATH_MAX is 259, so tmp_filename was too short.

Commit eba25057b9 introduced this
regression.

d7331bed11 aio: rename AIOPool to AIOCBInfo
Now that AIOPool no longer keeps a freelist, it isn't really a "pool"
anymore.  Rename it to AIOCBInfo and make it const since it no longer
needs to be modified.

d37c975fb1 aio: use g_slice_alloc() for AIOCB pooling
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.

9156df12a4 block: add bdrv_open_backing_file
Mirroring runs without the backing file so that it can be copied outside
QEMU.  However, we need to add it at the time the job is completed and
QEMU switches to the target.  Factor out the common bits of opening an
image and completing a mirroring operation.

The new function does not assume that the file is closed immediately after
it returns failure, so it keeps the BDRV_O_NO_BACKING flag up-to-date.

b1b1d783ea block: make bdrv_find_backing_image compare canonical filenames
Currently, bdrv_find_backing_image compares bs->backing_file with
what is passed in as a backing_file name.  Mismatches may occur,
however, when bs->backing_file and backing_file are not both
absolute or relative.

Use path_combine() to make sure any relative backing filenames are
relative to the current image filename being searched, and then use
realpath() to make all comparisons based on absolute filenames.

If either backing_file or bs->backing_file is determine to be a
protocol, then no filename normalization is performed.

This also changes bdrv_find_backing_image to no longer be recursive,
but iterative.

32c81a4a6e block: introduce block job error
The following behaviors are possible:

'report': The behavior is the same as in 1.1.  An I/O error,
respectively during a read or a write, will complete the job immediately
with an error code.

'ignore': An I/O error, respectively during a read or a write, will be
ignored.  For streaming, the job will complete with an error and the
backing file will be left in place.  For mirroring, the sector will be
marked again as dirty and re-examined later.

'stop': The job will be paused and the job iostatus will be set to
failed or nospace, while the VM will keep running.  This can only be
specified if the block device has rerror=stop and werror=stop or enospc.

'enospc': Behaves as 'stop' for ENOSPC errors, 'report' for others.

In all cases, even for 'report', the I/O error is reported as a QMP
event BLOCK_JOB_ERROR, with the same arguments as BLOCK_IO_ERROR.

It is possible that while stopping the VM a BLOCK_IO_ERROR event will be
reported and will clobber the event from BLOCK_JOB_ERROR, or vice versa.
This is not really avoidable since stopping the VM completes all pending
I/O requests.  In fact, it is already possible now that a series of
BLOCK_IO_ERROR events are reported with rerror=stop, because vm_stop
calls bdrv_drain_all and this can generate further errors.

e971aa1273 block: Framework for reopening files safely
This is based on Supriya Kannery's bdrv_reopen() patch series.

This provides a transactional method to reopen multiple
images files safely.

Image files are queue for reopen via bdrv_reopen_queue(), and the
reopen occurs when bdrv_reopen_multiple() is called.  Changes are
staged in bdrv_reopen_prepare() and in the equivalent driver level
functions.  If any of the staged images fails a prepare, then all
of the images left untouched, and the staged changes for each image
abandoned.

Block drivers are passed a reopen state structure, that contains:
    * BDS to reopen
    * flags for the reopen
    * opaque pointer for any driver-specific data that needs to be
      persistent from _prepare to _commit/_abort
    * reopen queue pointer, if the driver needs to queue additional
      BDS for a reopen

be028adced block: correctly set the keep_read_only flag
I believe the bs->keep_read_only flag is supposed to reflect
the initial open state of the device. If the device is initially
opened R/O, then commit operations, or reopen operations changing
to R/W, are prohibited.

Currently, the keep_read_only flag is only accurate for the active
layer, and its backing file. Subsequent images end up always having
the keep_read_only flag set.

For instance, what happens now:

[  base  ]  kro = 1, ro = 1
    |
    v
[ snap-1 ]  kro = 1, ro = 1
    |
    v
[ snap-2 ]  kro = 0, ro = 1

2b584959ed block: Geometry and translation hints are now useless, purge them
There are two producers of these hints: drive_init() on behalf of
-drive, and hd_geometry_guess().

The only consumer of the hint is hd_geometry_guess().

The callers of hd_geometry_guess() call it only when drive_init()
didn't set the hints.  Therefore, drive_init()'s hints are never used.

Thus, hd_geometry_guess() only ever sees hints it produced itself in a
prior call.  Only the first call computes something, subsequent calls
just repeat the first call's results.  However, hd_geometry_guess() is
never called more than once: the device models don't, and the block
device is destroyed on unplug.  Thus, dropping the repeat feature
doesn't break anything now.

If a block device wasn't destroyed on unplug and could be reused with
a new device, then repeating old results would be wrong.  Thus,
dropping the repeat feature prevents future breakage.

This renders the hints unused.  Purge them from the block layer.

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".

a9fc4408e3 block: copy over job and dirty bitmap fields in bdrv_append
While these should not be in use at the time a transaction is started,
a command in the prepare phase of a transaction might have added them,
so they need to be brought over.

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
the block driver it names, and block drivers don't die.

Requested by Peter Maydell.

e1e9b0aca0 block: always open drivers in writeback mode
Formats are entirely in charge of flushes for metadata writes.  For
guest-initiated writes, a writethrough cache is faked in the block layer.
So we can always open in writeback mode.

c4a248a138 block: copy enable_write_cache in bdrv_append
Because the guest will be able to flip enable_write_cache, the actual
state may not match what is used to open the new snapshot.

f05fa4ad03 block: flush in writethrough mode after writes
We want to make the formats handle their own flushes
autonomously, while keeping for guests the ability to use a writethrough
cache.  Since formats will write metadata via bs->file, bdrv_co_do_writev
is the only place where we need to add a flush.

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.
