This commit adds support to the BlockDriverState type to keep track
of devices' I/O status.
There are three possible status: BDRV_IOS_OK (no error), BDRV_IOS_ENOSPC
(no space error) and BDRV_IOS_FAILED (any other error). The distinction
between no space and other errors is important because a management
application may want to watch for no space in order to extend the
space assigned to the VM and put it to run again.
Qemu devices supporting the I/O status feature have to enable it
explicitly by calling bdrv_iostatus_enable() _and_ have to be
configured to stop the VM on errors (ie. werror=stop|enospc or
rerror=stop).
In case of multiple errors being triggered in sequence only the first
one is stored. The I/O status is always reset to BDRV_IOS_OK when the
'cont' command is issued.
Next commits will add support to some devices and extend the
query-block/info block commands to return the I/O status information.

It's convenience stuff for block device models, so block.h isn't the

BlockDriverState member removable is a confused mess. It is true when
an ide-cd, scsi-cd or floppy qdev is attached, or when the
BlockDriverState was created with -drive if={floppy,sd} or -drive
if={ide,scsi,xen,none},media=cdrom ("created removable"), except when
an ide-hd, scsi-hd, scsi-generic or virtio-blk qdev is attached.
Three users remain:
1. eject_device(), via bdrv_is_removable() uses it to determine
whether a block device can eject media.
2. bdrv_info() is monitor command "info block". QMP documentation
says "true if the device is removable, false otherwise". From the
monitor user's point of view, the only sensible interpretation of
"is removable" is "can eject media with monitor commands eject and
change".
A block device can eject media unless a device is attached that
doesn't support it. Switch the two users over to new
bdrv_dev_has_removable_media() that returns exactly that.
3. bdrv_getlength() uses to suppress its length cache when media can
change (see commit 46a4e4e6). Media change is either monitor
command change (updates the length cache), monitor command eject
(doesn't update the length cache, easily fixable), or physical
media change (invalidates length cache, not so easily fixable).
I'm refraining from improving anything here, because this series is
long enough already. Instead, I simply switch it over to
bdrv_dev_has_removable_media() as well.
This changes the behavior of the length cache and of monitor commands
eject and change in two cases:
a. drive not created removable, no device attached
The commit makes the drive removable, and defeats the length cache.
Example: -drive if=none
b. drive created removable, but the attached drive is non-removable,
and doesn't call bdrv_set_removable(..., 0) (most devices don't)
The commit makes the drive non-removable, and enables the length
cache.
Example: -drive if=xen,media=cdrom -M xenpv
The other non-removable devices that don't call
bdrv_set_removable() can't currently use a drive created removable,
either because they aren't qdevified, or because they lack a drive
property. Won't stay that way.

Decouple the I/O accounting from bdrv_aio_readv/writev/flush and
make the hardware models call directly into the accounting helpers.
This means:
- we do not count internal requests from image formats in addition
to guest originating I/O
- we do not double count I/O ops if the device model handles it
chunk wise
- we only account I/O once it actuall is done
- can extent I/O accounting to synchronous or coroutine I/O easily
- implement I/O latency tracking easily (see the next patch)
I've conveted the existing device model callers to the new model,
device models that are using synchronous I/O and weren't accounted
before haven't been updated yet. Also scsi hasn't been converted
to the end-to-end accounting as I want to defer that after the pending
scsi layer overhaul.

qemu-img.c wants to count allocated file size of image. Previously it
counts a single bs->file by 'stat' or Window API. As VMDK introduces
multiple file support, the operation becomes format specific with
platform specific meanwhile.
The functions are moved to block/raw-{posix,win32}.c and qemu-img.c calls
bdrv_get_allocated_file_size to count the bs. And also added VMDK code
to count his own extents.

When removing a drive from the host-side via drive_del we currently have
the following path:
drive_del
qemu_aio_flush()
bdrv_close() // zaps bs->drv, which makes any subsequent I/O get
// dropped. Works as designed
drive_uninit()
bdrv_delete() // frees the bs. Since the device is still connected to
// bs, any subsequent I/O is a use-after-free.
The value of bs->drv becomes unpredictable on free. As long as it
remains null, I/O still gets dropped, however it could become non-null
at any point after the free resulting SEGVs or other QEMU state
corruption.
To resolve this issue as simply as possible, we can chose to not
actually delete the BlockDriverState pointer. Since bdrv_close()
handles setting the drv pointer to NULL, we just need to remove the
BlockDriverState from the QLIST that is used to enumerate the block
devices. This is currently handled within bdrv_delete, so move this
into its own function, bdrv_make_anon().
The result is that we can now invoke drive_del, this closes the file
descriptors and sets BlockDriverState->drv to NULL which prevents futher
IO to the device, and since we do not free BlockDriverState, we don't
have to worry about the copy retained in the block devices.
We also don't attempt to remove the qdev property since we are no longer
deleting the BlockDriverState on drives with associated drives. This
also allows for removing Drives with no devices associated either.

BlockDriverState member removable controls whether virtual media
change (monitor commands change, eject) is allowed. It is set when
the "type hint" is BDRV_TYPE_CDROM or BDRV_TYPE_FLOPPY.
The type hint is only set by drive_init(). It sets BDRV_TYPE_FLOPPY
for if=floppy. It sets BDRV_TYPE_CDROM for media=cdrom and if=ide,
scsi, xen, or none.
if=ide and if=scsi work, because the type hint makes it a CD-ROM.
if=xen likewise, I think.
For the same reason, if=none works when it's used by ide-drive or
scsi-disk. For other guest devices, there are problems:
* fdc: you can't change virtual media
$ qemu [...] -drive if=none,id=foo,... -global isa-fdc.driveA=foo
QEMU 0.12.50 monitor - type 'help' for more information
(qemu) eject foo
Device 'foo' is not removable
unless you add media=cdrom, but that makes it readonly.
* virtio: if you add media=cdrom, you can change virtual media. If
you eject, the guest gets I/O errors. If you change, the guest sees
the drive's contents suddenly change.
* scsi-generic: if you add media=cdrom, you can change virtual media.
I didn't test what that does to the guest or the physical device,
but it can't be pretty.

It's all downhill from there.

Both bdrv_can_snapshot() and bdrv_has_snapshot() does not work as advertized.
First issue: Their names implies different porpouses, but they do the same thing
and have exactly the same code. Maybe copied and pasted and forgotten?
bdrv_has_snapshot() is called in various places for actually checking if there
is snapshots or not.
Second issue: the way bdrv_can_snapshot() verifies if a block driver supports or
not snapshots does not catch all cases. E.g.: a raw image.
So when do_savevm() is called, first thing it does is to set a global
BlockDriverState to save the VM memory state calling get_bs_snapshots().
static BlockDriverState *get_bs_snapshots(void)
{
BlockDriverState *bs;
DriveInfo *dinfo;
if (bs_snapshots)
return bs_snapshots;
QTAILQ_FOREACH(dinfo, &drives, next) {
bs = dinfo->bdrv;
if (bdrv_can_snapshot(bs))
goto ok;
}
return NULL;
ok:
bs_snapshots = bs;
return bs;
}
bdrv_can_snapshot() may return a BlockDriverState that does not support
snapshots and do_savevm() goes on.
Later on in do_savevm(), we find:
QTAILQ_FOREACH(dinfo, &drives, next) {
bs1 = dinfo->bdrv;
if (bdrv_has_snapshot(bs1)) {
/* Write VM state size only to the image that contains the state */
sn->vm_state_size = (bs == bs1 ? vm_state_size : 0);
ret = bdrv_snapshot_create(bs1, sn);
if (ret < 0) {
monitor_printf(mon, "Error while creating snapshot on '%s'\n",
bdrv_get_device_name(bs1));
}
}
}
bdrv_has_snapshot(bs1) is not checking if the device does support or has
snapshots as explained above. Only in bdrv_snapshot_create() the device is
actually checked for snapshot support.
So, in cases where the first device supports snapshots, and the second does not,
the snapshot on the first will happen anyways. I believe this is not a good
behavior. It should be an all or nothing process.
This patch addresses these issues by making bdrv_can_snapshot() actually do
what it must do and enforces better tests to avoid errors in the middle of
do_savevm(). bdrv_has_snapshot() is removed and replaced by bdrv_can_snapshot()
where appropriate.
bdrv_can_snapshot() was moved from savevm.c to block.c. It makes more sense to me.
The loadvm_state() function was updated too to enforce that when loading a VM at
least all writable devices must support snapshots too.

a backing_file option with raw format.

Usually the guest can tell the host to flush data to disk. In some cases we
don't want to flush though, but try to keep everything in cache.
So let's add a new cache value to -drive that allows us to set the cache
policy to most aggressive, disabling flushes. We call this mode "unsafe",
as guest data is not guaranteed to survive host crashes anymore.
This patch also adds a noop function for aio, so we can do nothing in AIO
fashion.

This fixes the problem that qemu-img's use of no_zero_init only considered the
no_zero_init flag of the format driver, but not of the underlying protocols.
Between the raw/file split and this fix, converting to host devices is broken.

We're running into various problems because the "raw" file access, which
is used internally by the various image formats is entangled with the
"raw" image format, which maps the VM view 1:1 to a file system.
This patch renames the raw file backends to the file protocol which
is treated like other protocols (e.g. nbd and http) and adds a new
"raw" image format which is just a wrapper around calls to the underlying
protocol.
The patch is surprisingly simple, besides changing the probing logical
in block.c to only look for image formats when using bdrv_open and
renaming of the old raw protocols to file there's almost nothing in there.
For creating images, a new bdrv_create_file is introduced which guesses the
protocol to use. This allows using qemu-img create -f raw (or just using the
default) for both files and host devices. Converting the other format drivers
to use this function to create their images is left for later patches.
The only issues still open are in the handling of the host devices.
Firstly in current qemu we can specifiy the host* format names
on various command line acceping images, but the new code can't
do that without adding some translation. Second the layering breaks
the no_zero_init flag in the BlockDriver used by qemu-img. I'm not
happy how this is done per-driver instead of per-state so I'll
prepare a separate patch to clean this up.
There's some more cleanup opportunity after this patch, e.g. using
separate lists and registration functions for image formats vs
protocols and maybe even host drivers, but this can be done at a
later stage.
Also there's a check for protocol in bdrv_open for the BDRV_O_SNAPSHOT
case that I don't quite understand, but which I fear won't work as
expected - possibly even before this patch.
Note that this patch requires various recent block patches from Kevin
and me, which should all be in his block queue.

The bdrv_create2 implementation has disappeared long ago. Remove its
prototype from the header file, too.

BDRV_O_FILE is only used to communicate between bdrv_file_open and bdrv_open.
It affects two things: first bdrv_open only searches for protocols using
find_protocol instead of all image formats and host drivers. We can easily
move that to the caller and pass the found driver to bdrv_open. Second
it is used to not force a read-write open of a snapshot file. But we never
use bdrv_file_open to open snapshots and this behaviour doesn't make sense
to start with.
qemu-io abused the BDRV_O_FILE for it's growable option, switch it to
using bdrv_file_open to make sure we only open files as growable were
we can actually support that.
This patch requires Kevin's "[PATCH] Replace calls of old bdrv_open" to
be applied first.
