Add #if defined(CONFIG_REPLICATION) in generated code, and adjust the

* xen-set-replication, query-xen-replication-status,

Before the patch, we first register the commands unconditionally in

qmp_unregister_commands_hack().
Afterwards, we register only when CONFIG_REPLICATION. The command
fails exactly the same, with CommandNotFound.
Improvement, because now query-qmp-schema is accurate, and we're one
step closer to killing qmp_unregister_commands_hack().

If a management application builds the block graph node by node, the
protocol layer doesn't inherit its read-only option from the format
layer any more, so it must be set explicitly.
Backing files should work on read-only storage, but at the same time, a
block job like commit should be able to reopen them read-write if they
are on read-write storage. However, without option inheritance, reopen
only changes the read-only option for the root node (typically the
format layer), but not the protocol layer, so reopening fails (the
format layer wants to get write permissions, but the protocol layer is
still read-only).
A simple workaround for the problem in the management tool would be to
open the protocol layer always read-write and to make only the format
layer read-only for backing files. However, sometimes the file is
actually stored on read-only storage and we don't know whether the image
can be opened read-write (for example, for NBD it depends on the server
we're trying to connect to). This adds an option that makes QEMU try to
open the image read-write, but allows it to degrade to a read-only mode
without returning an error.
The documentation for this option is consciously phrased in a way that
allows QEMU to switch to a better model eventually: Instead of trying
when the image is first opened, making the read-only flag dynamic and
changing it automatically whenever the first BLK_PERM_WRITE user is
attached or the last one is detached would be much more useful
behaviour.
Unfortunately, this more useful behaviour is also a lot harder to
implement, and libvirt needs a solution now before it can switch to
-blockdev, so let's start with this easier approach for now.
Instead of adding a new auto-read-only option, turning the existing
read-only into an enum (with a bool alternate for compatibility) was
considered, but it complicated the implementation to the point that it
didn't seem to be worth it.

The block-commit QMP command required specifying the top and base nodes
of the commit jobs using the file name of that node. While this works
in simple cases (local files with absolute paths), the file names
generated for more complicated setups can be hard to predict.
The block-commit command has more problems than just this, so we want to
replace it altogether in the long run, but libvirt needs a reliable way
to address nodes now. So we don't want to wait for a new, cleaner
command, but just add the minimal thing needed right now.
This adds two new options top-node and base-node to the command, which
allow specifying node names instead. They are mutually exclusive with
the old options.

Implements a block device write logging system, similar to Linux kernel
device mapper dm-log-writes. The write operations that are performed
on a block device are logged to a file or another block device. The
write log format is identical to the dm-log-writes format. Currently,
log markers are not supported.
This functionality can be used for crash consistency and fs consistency
testing. By implementing it in qemu, tests utilizing write logs can be
be used to test non-Linux drivers and older kernels.
The driver accepts an optional parameter to set the sector size used
for logging. This makes the driver require all requests to be aligned
to this sector size and also makes offsets and sizes of writes in the
log metadata to be expressed in terms of this value (the log format has
a granularity of one sector for offsets and sizes). This allows
accurate logging of writes to guest block devices that have unusual
sector sizes.
The implementation is based on the blkverify and blkdebug block
drivers.

In order to test that the NBD server is properly advertising
dirty bitmaps, we need a bare minimum client that can request
and read the context. Since feature freeze for 3.0 is imminent,
this is the smallest workable patch, which replaces the qemu
block status report with the results of the NBD server's dirty
bitmap (making it very easy to use 'qemu-img map --output=json'
to learn where the dirty portions are). Note that the NBD
protocol defines a dirty section with the same bit but opposite
sense that normal "base:allocation" uses to report an allocated
section; so in qemu-img map output, "data":true corresponds to
clean, "data":false corresponds to dirty.
A more complete solution that allows dirty bitmaps to be queried
at the same time as normal block status will be required before
this addition can lose the x- prefix. Until then, the fact that
this replaces normal status with dirty status means actions
like 'qemu-img convert' will likely misbehave due to treating
dirty regions of the file as if they are unallocated.
The next patch adds an iotest to exercise this new code.

This patch implements active synchronous mirroring. In active mode, the
passive mechanism will still be in place and is used to copy all
initially dirty clusters off the source disk; but every write request
will write data both to the source and the target disk, so the source
cannot be dirtied faster than data is mirrored to the target. Also,
once the block job has converged (BLOCK_JOB_READY sent), source and
target are guaranteed to stay in sync (unless an error occurs).
Active mode is completely optional and currently disabled at runtime. A
later patch will add a way for users to enable it.

Legacy -drive supports "password-secret" parameter that isn't
available with -blockdev / blockdev-add. That's because we backed out
our first try to provide it there due to interface design doubts, in
commit 577d8c9a81, v2.9.0.
This is the second try. It brings back the parameter, except it's
named "key-secret" now.
Let's review our reasons for backing out the first try, as stated in
the commit message:
* BlockdevOptionsRbd member @password-secret isn't actually a
password, it's a key generated by Ceph.
Addressed by the rename.
* We're not sure where member @password-secret belongs (see the
previous commit).
See previous commit.
* How @password-secret interacts with settings from a configuration
file specified with @conf is undocumented.
Not actually true, the documentation for @conf says "Values in the
configuration file will be overridden by options specified via QAPI",
and we've tested this.

Parameter auth-client-required lets you configure authentication
methods. We tried to provide that in v2.9.0, but backed out due to
interface design doubts (commit 464444fcc1).
This commit is similar to what we backed out, but simpler: we use a
list of enumeration values instead of a list of objects with a member
of enumeration type.
Let's review our reasons for backing out the first try, as stated in
the commit message:
* The implementation uses deprecated rados_conf_set() key
"auth_supported". No biggie.
Fixed: we use "auth-client-required".
* The implementation makes -drive silently ignore invalid parameters
"auth" and "auth-supported.*.X" where X isn't "auth". Fixable (in
fact I'm going to fix similar bugs around parameter server), so
again no biggie.
That fix is commit 2836284db6. This commit doesn't bring the bugs
back.
* BlockdevOptionsRbd member @password-secret applies only to
authentication method cephx. Should it be a variant member of
RbdAuthMethod?
We've had time to ponder, and we decided to stick to the way Ceph
configuration works: the key configured separately, and silently
ignored if the authentication method doesn't use it.
* BlockdevOptionsRbd member @user could apply to both methods cephx
and none, but I'm not sure it's actually used with none. If it
isn't, should it be a variant member of RbdAuthMethod?
Likewise.
* The client offers a *set* of authentication methods, not a list.
Should the methods be optional members of BlockdevOptionsRbd instead
of members of list @auth-supported? The latter begs the question
what multiple entries for the same method mean. Trivial question
now that RbdAuthMethod contains nothing but @type, but less so when
RbdAuthMethod acquires other members, such the ones discussed above.
Again, we decided to stick to the way Ceph configuration works, except
we make auth-client-required a list of enumeration values instead of a
string containing keywords separated by delimiters.
* How BlockdevOptionsRbd member @auth-supported interacts with
settings from a configuration file specified with @conf is
undocumented. I suspect it's untested, too.
Not actually true, the documentation for @conf says "Values in the
configuration file will be overridden by options specified via QAPI",
and we've tested this.

When doing drive mirror to a low speed shared storage, if there was heavy
BLK IO write workload in VM after the 'ready' event, drive mirror block job
can't be canceled immediately, it would keep running until the heavy BLK IO
workload stopped in the VM.
Libvirt depends on the current block-job-cancel semantics, which is that
when used without a flag after the 'ready' event, the command blocks
until data is in sync. However, these semantics are awkward in other
situations, for example, people may use drive mirror for realtime
backups while still wanting to use block live migration. Libvirt cannot
start a block live migration while another drive mirror is in progress,
but the user would rather abandon the backup attempt as broken and
proceed with the live migration than be stuck waiting for the current
drive mirror backup to finish.
The drive-mirror command already includes a 'force' flag, which libvirt
does not use, although it documented the flag as only being useful to
quit a job which is paused. However, since quitting a paused job has
the same effect as abandoning a backup in a non-paused job (namely, the
destination file is not in sync, and the command completes immediately),
we can just improve the documentation to make the force flag obviously
useful.
