The following sequence
int fd = open(argv[1], O_RDWR | O_CREAT | O_DIRECT, 0644);
for (i = 0; i < 100000; i++)
write(fd, buf, 4096);
performs 5% better if buf is aligned to 4096 bytes.
The difference is quite reliable.
On the other hand we do not want at the moment to enforce bounce
buffering if guest request is aligned to 512 bytes.
The patch changes default bounce buffer optimal alignment to
MAX(page size, 4k). 4k is chosen as maximal known sector size on real
HDD.
The justification of the performance improve is quite interesting.
From the kernel point of view each request to the disk was split
by two. This could be seen by blktrace like this:
9,0 11 1 0.000000000 11151 Q WS 312737792 + 1023 [qemu-img]
9,0 11 2 0.000007938 11151 Q WS 312738815 + 8 [qemu-img]
9,0 11 3 0.000030735 11151 Q WS 312738823 + 1016 [qemu-img]
9,0 11 4 0.000032482 11151 Q WS 312739839 + 8 [qemu-img]
9,0 11 5 0.000041379 11151 Q WS 312739847 + 1016 [qemu-img]
9,0 11 6 0.000042818 11151 Q WS 312740863 + 8 [qemu-img]
9,0 11 7 0.000051236 11151 Q WS 312740871 + 1017 [qemu-img]
9,0 5 1 0.169071519 11151 Q WS 312741888 + 1023 [qemu-img]
After the patch the pattern becomes normal:
9,0 6 1 0.000000000 12422 Q WS 314834944 + 1024 [qemu-img]
9,0 6 2 0.000038527 12422 Q WS 314835968 + 1024 [qemu-img]
9,0 6 3 0.000072849 12422 Q WS 314836992 + 1024 [qemu-img]
9,0 6 4 0.000106276 12422 Q WS 314838016 + 1024 [qemu-img]
and the amount of requests sent to disk (could be calculated counting
number of lines in the output of blktrace) is reduced about 2 times.
Both qemu-img and qemu-io are affected while qemu-kvm is not. The guest
does his job well and real requests comes properly aligned (to page).

The patch introduces new concept: minimal memory alignment for bounce
buffers. Original so called "optimal" value is actually minimal required
value for aligment. It should be used for validation that the IOVec
is properly aligned and bounce buffer is not required.
Though, from the performance point of view, it would be better if
bounce buffer or IOVec allocated by QEMU will be aligned stricter.
The patch does not change any alignment value yet.

Previously, QEMU would launch successfully and the guest would see the

This is a regression and may prevent multipath I/O inside the guest,
where QEMU must launch and let the guest figure out by itself which
disks are online.

This sequence works efficiently if FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE is not supported.
Unfortunately, FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE is supported on really modern systems
and only for a couple of filesystems. FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE is much more
mature.
The sequence of 2 operations FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE and 0 is necessary due
to the following reasons:
- FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE creates a hole in the file, the file becomes
sparse. In order to retain original functionality we must allocate
disk space afterwards. This is done using fallocate(0) call
- fallocate(0) without preceeding FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE will do nothing
if called above already allocated areas of the file, i.e. the content
will not be zeroed
This should increase the performance a bit for not-so-modern kernels.

There is a possibility that we are extending our image and thus writing
zeroes beyond the end of the file. In this case we do not need to care
about the hole to make sure that there is no data in the file under
this offset (pre-condition to fallocate(0) to work). We could simply call
fallocate(0).
This improves the performance of writing zeroes even on really old
platforms which do not have even FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE.
Before the patch do_fallocate was used when either
CONFIG_FALLOCATE_PUNCH_HOLE or CONFIG_FALLOCATE_ZERO_RANGE are defined.
Now the story is different. CONFIG_FALLOCATE is defined when Linux
fallocate is defined, posix_fallocate is completely different story
(CONFIG_POSIX_FALLOCATE). CONFIG_FALLOCATE is mandatory prerequite
for both CONFIG_FALLOCATE_PUNCH_HOLE and CONFIG_FALLOCATE_ZERO_RANGE
thus we are on the safe side.

On systems where SEEK_HOLE in a trailing hole seeks to EOF (Solaris,
but not Linux), try_seek_hole() reports trailing data instead.
Additionally, unlikely lseek() failures are treated badly:
* When SEEK_HOLE fails, try_seek_hole() reports trailing data. For
-ENXIO, there's in fact a trailing hole. Can happen only when
something truncated the file since we opened it.
* When SEEK_HOLE succeeds, SEEK_DATA fails, and SEEK_END succeeds,
then try_seek_hole() reports a trailing hole. This is okay only
when SEEK_DATA failed with -ENXIO (which means the non-trailing hole
found by SEEK_HOLE has since become trailing somehow). For other
failures (unlikely), it's wrong.
* When SEEK_HOLE succeeds, SEEK_DATA fails, SEEK_END fails (unlikely),
then try_seek_hole() reports bogus data [-1,start), which its caller
raw_co_get_block_status() turns into zero sectors of data. Could
theoretically lead to infinite loops in code that attempts to scan
data vs. hole forward.
Rewrite from scratch, with very careful comments.

Commit 5500316 (May 2012) implemented raw_co_is_allocated() as
follows:
1. If defined(CONFIG_FIEMAP), use the FS_IOC_FIEMAP ioctl
2. Else if defined(SEEK_HOLE) && defined(SEEK_DATA), use lseek()
3. Else pretend there are no holes
Later on, raw_co_is_allocated() was generalized to
raw_co_get_block_status().
Commit 4f11aa8 (May 2014) changed it to try the three methods in order
until success, because "there may be implementations which support
[SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA] but not [FIEMAP] (e.g., NFSv4.2) as well as vice
versa."
Unfortunately, we used FIEMAP incorrectly: we lacked FIEMAP_FLAG_SYNC.
Commit 38c4d0a (Sep 2014) added it. Because that's a significant
speed hit, the next commit 7c159037 put SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA first.
As you see, the obvious use of FIEMAP is wrong, and the correct use is
slow. I guess this puts it somewhere between -7 "The obvious use is
wrong" and -10 "It's impossible to get right" on Rusty Russel's Hard
to Misuse scale[*].
"Fortunately", the FIEMAP code is used only when
* SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA aren't defined, but CONFIG_FIEMAP is
Uncommon. SEEK_HOLE had no XFS implementation between 2011 (when it
was introduced for ext4 and btrfs) and 2012.
* SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA and CONFIG_FIEMAP are defined, but lseek() fails
Unlikely.
Thus, the FIEMAP code executes rarely. Makes it a nice hidey-hole for
bugs. Worse, bugs hiding there can theoretically bite even on a host
that has SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA.
I don't want to worry about this crap, not even theoretically. Get
rid of it.

As its comment states, raw_co_get_block_status() should unconditionally
return 0 and set *pnum to 0 for after EOF.
An assertion after lseek(..., SEEK_HOLE) tried to catch this case by
asserting that errno != -ENXIO (which would indicate a position after
the EOF); but it should be errno != ENXIO instead. Regardless of that,
there should be no such assertion at all. If bdrv_getlength() returned
an outdated value and the image has been resized outside of qemu,
lseek() will return with errno == ENXIO. Just return that value as an
error then.
Setting *pnum to 0 and returning 0 should not be done here, as in that
case we should update the device length as well. So, from qemu's
perspective, the file has not been resized; it's just that there was an
error querying sectors beyond a certain point (the actual file size).
Additionally, nb_sectors should be clamped against the image end. This
was probably not an issue if FIEMAP or SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA worked, but
the fallback did not take this case into account.

Two, it returns T * rather than void *, which lets the compiler catch
more type errors.
Patch created with Coccinelle, with two manual changes on top:
* Add const to bdrv_iterate_format() to keep the types straight
* Convert the allocation in bdrv_drop_intermediate(), which Coccinelle
inexplicably misses

Some code in the block layer makes potentially huge allocations. Failure
is not completely unexpected there, so avoid aborting qemu and handle
out-of-memory situations gracefully.
This patch addresses the allocations in the raw-posix block driver.

If qemu couldn't find out what O_DIRECT alignment to use with a given
file, it would run into assert(bdrv_opt_mem_align(bs) != 0); in block.c
and confuse users. This adds a more descriptive error message for such
cases.

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.

Add 'nocow' option so that users could have a chance to set NOCOW flag to
newly created files. It's useful on btrfs file system to enhance performance.
Btrfs has low performance when hosting VM images, even more when the guest
in those VM are also using btrfs as file system. One way to mitigate this bad
performance is to turn off COW attributes on VM files. Generally, there are
two ways to turn off NOCOW on btrfs: a) by mounting fs with nodatacow, then
all newly created files will be NOCOW. b) per file. Add the NOCOW file
attribute. It could only be done to empty or new files.
This patch tries the second way, according to the option, it could add NOCOW
per file.
For most block drivers, since the create file step is in raw-posix.c, so we
can do setting NOCOW flag ioctl in raw-posix.c only.
But there are some exceptions, like block/vpc.c and block/vdi.c, they are
creating file by calling qemu_open directly. For them, do the same setting
NOCOW flag ioctl work in them separately.
[Fixed up 082.out due to the new 'nocow' creation option

virtio-blk data-plane now uses the QEMU block layer for I/O. We do not
need raw_get_aio_fd() anymore. It was a layering violation anyway, so

Hot unplugging -drive aio=native,file=test.img,format=raw images leaves
the Linux AIO event notifier and struct qemu_laio_state allocated.
Luckily nothing will use the event notifier after the BlockDriverState
has been closed so the handler function is never called.
It's still worth fixing this resource leak.

Drop the assumption that we're using the main AioContext for Linux AIO.
Convert the Linux AIO event notifier to use aio_set_event_notifier().
The .bdrv_detach/attach_aio_context() interfaces also need to be
implemented to move the event notifier handler from the old to the new
AioContext.
