The blkverify block driver makes investigating image format data
corruption much easier. A raw image initialized with the same contents
as the test image (e.g. qcow2 file) must be provided. The raw image
mirrors read/write operations and is used to verify that data read from
the test image is correct.
See docs/blkverify.txt for more information.

qcow2 used to use bounce buffers for any AIO requests. This does not only imply
unnecessary copying, but also unbounded allocations which should be avoided.
This patch removes bounce buffers from the normal AIO write path. Encrypted
images continue to use a bounce buffer, however with constant size.

vvfat tries to set the readonly flag in its open function, but nowadays
this is overwritted with the readonly=... command line option. Check in
bdrv_write if the vvfat was opened read-only and return an error in this
case.
Without this check, vvfat tries to access the qcow bs, which is NULL
without enabled write support.

The signedness of enum types depend on the compiler implementation.
Therefore the check for negative values may or may not be meaningful.
Fix by explicitly casting to a signed integer.
Since the values are also checked earlier against event_names
table, this is an internal error. Change the 'if' to 'assert'.
This also avoids a warning with GCC flag -Wtype-limits.

This patch allows to connect Qemu using NBD protocol to an nbd-server
using named exports.
For instance, if on the host "isoserver", in /etc/nbd-server/config, you have:
[generic]
[debian-500-ppc-netinst]
exportname = /ISO/debian-500-powerpc-netinst.iso
[Fedora-10-ppc-netinst]
exportname = /ISO/Fedora-10-ppc-netinst.iso
You can connect to it, using:
qemu -cdrom nbd:isoserver:exportname=debian-500-ppc-netinst
qemu -cdrom nbd:isoserver:exportname=Fedora-10-ppc-netinst
NOTE: you need at least nbd-server 2.9.18

CVE-2008-2004 described a vulnerability in QEMU whereas a malicious user could
trick the block probing code into accessing arbitrary files in a guest. To
mitigate this, we added an explicit format parameter to -drive which disabling
block probing.
Fast forward to today, and the vast majority of users do not use this parameter.
libvirt does not use this by default nor does virt-manager.
Most users want block probing so we should try to make it safer.
This patch adds some logic to the raw device which attempts to detect a write
operation to the beginning of a raw device. If the first 4 bytes happen to
match an image file that has a backing file that we support, it scrubs the
signature to all zeros. If a user specifies an explicit format parameter, this
behavior is disabled.
I contend that while a legitimate guest could write such a signature to the
header, we would behave incorrectly anyway upon the next invocation of QEMU.
This simply changes the incorrect behavior to not involve a security
vulnerability.
I've tested this pretty extensively both in the positive and negative case. I'm
not 100% confident in the block layer's ability to deal with zero sized writes
particularly with respect to the aio functions so some additional eyes would be
appreciated.
Even in the case of a single sector write, we have to make sure to invoked the
completion from a bottom half so just removing the zero sized write is not an
option.

Sheepdog is a distributed storage system for QEMU. It provides highly
available block level storage volumes to VMs like Amazon EBS. This
patch adds a qemu block driver for Sheepdog.
Sheepdog features are:
- No node in the cluster is special (no metadata node, no control
node, etc)
- Linear scalability in performance and capacity
- No single point of failure
- Autonomous management (zero configuration)
- Useful volume management support such as snapshot and cloning
- Thin provisioning
- Autonomous load balancing

raw_pread_aligned() retries up to two times if the block device backs
a virtual CD-ROM (a drive with media=cdrom and if=ide, scsi, xen or
none). This makes no sense. Whether retrying reads can correct read
errors can only depend on what we're reading, not on how the result
gets used. We need to check what whether we're reading from a
physical CD-ROM or floppy here.
I doubt retrying is useful even then. Left for another day.
Impact:
* Virtual CD-ROM backed by host_cdrom behaves the same.
* Virtual CD-ROM backed by file or host_device no longer retries.
* A drive backed by host_cdrom now retries even if it's not a virtual
CD-ROM.
* Any drive backed by host_floppy now retries.
While there, clean up gratuitous use of goto.
