We are gradually moving away from sector-based interfaces, towards
byte-based. Add new sector-based aio callbacks for read and write,
to match the fact that bdrv_aio_pdiscard is already byte-based.
Ideally, drivers should be converted to use coroutine callbacks
rather than aio; but that is not quite as trivial (and if we were
to do that conversion, the null-aio driver would disappear), so for
the short term, converting the signature but keeping things with
aio is easier. However, we CAN declare that a driver that uses
the byte-based aio interfaces now defaults to byte-based
operations, and must explicitly provide a refresh_limits override
to stick with larger alignments (making the alignment issues more
obvious directly in the drivers touched in the next few patches).
Once all drivers are converted, the sector-based aio callbacks will
be removed; in the meantime, a FIXME comment is added due to a
slight inefficiency that will be touched up as part of that later
cleanup.
Simplify some instances of 'bs->drv' into 'drv' while touching this,
since the local variable already exists to reduce typing.

qemu_aio_coroutine_enter() is (indirectly) called recursively when
processing co_queue_wakeup. This can lead to stack exhaustion.
This patch rewrites co_queue_wakeup in an iterative fashion (instead of
recursive) with bounded memory usage to prevent stack exhaustion.
qemu_co_queue_run_restart() is inlined into qemu_aio_coroutine_enter()
and the qemu_coroutine_enter() call is turned into a loop to avoid
recursion.
There is one change that is worth mentioning: Previously, when
coroutine A queued coroutine B, qemu_co_queue_run_restart() entered
coroutine B from coroutine A. If A was terminating then it would still
stay alive until B yielded. After this patch B is entered by A's parent
so that a A can be deleted immediately if it is terminating.
It is safe to make this change since B could never interact with A if it
was terminating anyway.

BlockDriverState has the BDRV_POLL_WHILE() macro to wait on event loop
activity while a condition evaluates to true. This is used to implement
synchronous operations where it acts as a condvar between the IOThread
running the operation and the main loop waiting for the operation. It
can also be called from the thread that owns the AioContext and in that
case it's just a nested event loop.
BlockBackend needs this behavior but doesn't always have a
BlockDriverState it can use. This patch extracts BDRV_POLL_WHILE() into
the AioWait abstraction, which can be used with AioContext and isn't
tied to BlockDriverState anymore.
This feature could be built directly into AioContext but then all users
would kick the event loop even if they signal different conditions.
Imagine an AioContext with many BlockDriverStates, each time a request
completes any waiter would wake up and re-check their condition. It's
nicer to keep a separate AioWait object for each condition instead.
Please see "block/aio-wait.h" for details on the API.
The name AIO_WAIT_WHILE() avoids the confusion between AIO_POLL_WHILE()
and AioContext polling.

The normal bdrv_co_pwritev() use is either

- BDRV_REQ_ZERO_WRITE set and iovector == NULL
while
- the flag clear and iovector == NULL is an assertion failure
in bdrv_co_do_zero_pwritev()
- the flag set and iovector provided is in fact allowed
(the flag prevails and zeroes are written)
However the alignment logic does not support the latter case so the padding
areas get overwritten with zeroes.
Currently, general functions like bdrv_rw_co() do provide iovector
regardless of flags. So, keep it supported and use bdrv_co_do_zero_pwritev()

We are gradually moving away from sector-based interfaces, towards
byte-based. Now that the block layer exposes byte-based allocation,
it's time to tackle the drivers. Add a new callback that operates
on as small as byte boundaries. Subsequent patches will then update
individual drivers, then finally remove .bdrv_co_get_block_status().
The new code also passes through the 'want_zero' hint, which will
allow subsequent patches to further optimize callers that only care
about how much of the image is allocated (want_zero is false),
rather than full details about runs of zeroes and which offsets the
allocation actually maps to (want_zero is true). As part of this
effort, fix another part of the documentation: the claim in commit
4c41cb4 that BDRV_BLOCK_ALLOCATED is short for 'DATA || ZERO' is a
lie at the block layer (see commit e88ae2264), even though it is
how the bit is computed from the driver layer. After all, there
are intentionally cases where we return ZERO but not ALLOCATED at
the block layer, when we know that a read sees zero because the
backing file is too short. Note that the driver interface is thus
slightly different than the public interface with regards to which
bits will be set, and what guarantees are provided on input.
We also add an assertion that any driver using the new callback will
make progress (the only time pnum will be 0 is if the block layer
already handled an out-of-bounds request, or if there is an error);
the old driver interface did not provide this guarantee, which
could lead to some inf-loops in drastic corner-case failures.

This is in preparation for subtree drains, i.e. drained sections that
affect not only a single node, but recursively all child nodes, too.
Calling the parent callbacks for drain is pointless when we just came
from that parent node recursively and leads to multiple increases of
bs->quiesce_counter in a single drain call. Don't do it.
In order for this to work correctly, the parent callback must be called
for every bdrv_drain_begin/end() call, not only for the outermost one:
If we have a node N with two parents A and B, recursive draining of A
should cause the quiesce_counter of B to increase because its child N is
drained independently of B. If now B is recursively drained, too, A must
increase its quiesce_counter because N is drained independently of A
only now, even if N is going from quiesce_counter 1 to 2.

One reason for this is that bdrv_drain_recurse() can be called multiple
times by bdrv_drain_all_begin(), but the callbacks may only be called

The other reason is that we intend to go to a model where we call all

We currently do not guard everywhere against a NULL bs->drv where we
should be doing so. Most of the places fixed here just do not care
about that case at all.
Some care implicitly, e.g. through a prior function call to
bdrv_getlength() which would always fail for an ejected BDS. Add an
assert there to make it more obvious.
Other places seem to care, but do so insufficiently: Freeing clusters in
a qcow2 image is an error-free operation, but it may leave the image in
an unusable state anyway. Giving qcow2_free_clusters() an error code is
not really viable, it is much easier to note that bs->drv may be NULL
even after a successful driver call. This concerns bdrv_co_flush(), and
the way the check is added to bdrv_co_pdiscard() (in every iteration
instead of only once).
Finally, some places employ at least an assert(bs->drv); somewhere, that
may be reasonable (such as in the reopen code), but in
bdrv_has_zero_init(), it is definitely not. Returning 0 there in case
of an ejected BDS saves us much headache instead.

Any device that has request_alignment greater than 512 should be
unable to report status at a finer granularity; it may also be
simpler for such devices to be guaranteed that the block layer
has rounded things out to the granularity boundary (the way the
block layer already rounds all other I/O out). Besides, getting
the code correct for super-sector alignment also benefits us
for the fact that our public interface now has byte granularity,
even though none of our drivers have byte-level callbacks.
Add an assertion in blkdebug that proves that the block layer
never requests status of unaligned sections, similar to what it
does on other requests (while still keeping the generic helper
in place for when future patches add a throttle driver). Note
that iotest 177 already covers this (it would fail if you use
just the blkdebug.c hunk without the io.c changes). Meanwhile,
we can drop assertions in callers that no longer have to pass
in sector-aligned addresses.
There is a mid-function scope added for 'count' and 'longret',
for a couple of reasons: first, an upcoming patch will add an
'if' statement that checks whether a driver has an old- or
new-style callback, and can conveniently use the same scope for
less indentation churn at that time. Second, since we are
trying to get rid of sector-based computations, wrapping things
in a scope makes it easier to group and see what will be
deleted in a final cleanup patch once all drivers have been
converted to the new-style callback.

Changing the name of the function from bdrv_get_block_status_above()

an offset mapping that might not be sector aligned, split the mapping
out of the return value and into a pass-by-reference parameter. For
now, the io.c layer still assert()s that all uses are sector-aligned,
but that can be relaxed when a later patch implements byte-based

For the most part this patch is just the addition of scaling at the

particularly bdrv_block_status(), gets a lot simpler because it no
longer has to mess with sectors. Likewise, mirror code no longer
computes s->granularity >> BDRV_SECTOR_BITS, and can therefore drop

alignment (never mind that we don't really have a driver that
reports sub-sector alignments, so it's not really possible to test
the effect of sub-sector mirroring). Fix a neighboring assertion to

Not all callers care about which BDS owns the mapping for a given
range of the file, or where the zeroes lie within that mapping. In
particular, bdrv_is_allocated() cares more about finding the
largest run of allocated data from the guest perspective, whether
or not that data is consecutive from the host perspective, and
whether or not the data reads as zero. Therefore, doing subsequent
refinements such as checking how much of the format-layer
allocation also satisfies BDRV_BLOCK_ZERO at the protocol layer is
wasted work - in the best case, it just costs extra CPU cycles
during a single bdrv_is_allocated(), but in the worst case, it
results in a smaller *pnum, and forces callers to iterate through
more status probes when visiting the entire file for even more
extra CPU cycles.
This patch only optimizes the block layer (no behavior change when
want_zero is true, but skip unnecessary effort when it is false).
Then when subsequent patches tweak the driver callback to be
byte-based, we can also pass this hint through to the driver.

The only caller that does not care about pnum is bdrv_is_allocated,
as invoked by vvfat; we can likewise add assertions that the rest
of the stack does not have to worry about a NULL pnum.
Furthermore, this will also set the stage for a future cleanup: when
a caller does not care about which BDS owns an offset, it would be
nice to allow the driver to optimize things to not have to return
BDRV_BLOCK_OFFSET_VALID in the first place. In the case of fragmented
allocation (for example, it's fairly easy to create a qcow2 image
where consecutive guest addresses are not at consecutive host
addresses), the current contract requires bdrv_get_block_status()
to clamp *pnum to the limit where host addresses are no longer
consecutive, but allowing a NULL file means that *pnum could be
set to the full length of known-allocated data.

Improve our braindead copy-on-read implementation. Pre-patch,
we have multiple issues:
- we create a bounce buffer and perform a write for the entire
request, even if the active image already has 99% of the
clusters occupied, and really only needs to copy-on-read the
remaining 1% of the clusters
- our bounce buffer was as large as the read request, and can
needlessly exhaust our memory by using double the memory of
the request size (the original request plus our bounce buffer),
rather than a capped maximum overhead beyond the original
- if a driver has a max_transfer limit, we are bypassing the
normal code in bdrv_aligned_preadv() that fragments to that
limit, and instead attempt to read the entire buffer from the
driver in one go, which some drivers may assert on
- a client can request a large request of nearly 2G such that
rounding the request out to cluster boundaries results in a
byte count larger than 2G. While this cannot exceed 32 bits,
it DOES have some follow-on problems:
-- the call to bdrv_driver_pread() can assert for exceeding
BDRV_REQUEST_MAX_BYTES, if the driver is old and lacks
.bdrv_co_preadv
-- if the buffer is all zeroes, the subsequent call to
bdrv_co_do_pwrite_zeroes is a no-op due to a negative size,
which means we did not actually copy on read
Fix all of these issues by breaking up the action into a loop,
where each iteration is capped to sane limits. Also, querying
the allocation status allows us to optimize: when data is
already present in the active layer, we don't need to bounce.
Note that the code has a telling comment that copy-on-read
should probably be a filter driver rather than a bolt-on hack
in io.c; but that remains a task for another day.

ensure that they never make a 0-length request, and then assert
that fact, it was just as easy to fix things to always report
success (as long as the callers are careful to not go into an
infinite loop). However, we had inconsistent behavior on whether
the status is reported as allocated or defers to the backing
layer, depending on what callbacks the driver implements, and
possibly wasting quite a few CPU cycles to get to that answer.
Consistently reporting unallocated up front doesn't really hurt
anything, and makes it easier both for callers (0-length requests
now have well-defined behavior) and for drivers (drivers don't
have to deal with 0-length requests).

We are gradually moving away from sector-based interfaces, towards
byte-based. In the common case, allocation is unlikely to ever use
values that are not naturally sector-aligned, but it is possible
that byte-based values will let us be more precise about allocation
at the end of an unaligned file that can do byte-based access.
Changing the signature of the function to use int64_t *pnum ensures
that the compiler enforces that all callers are updated. For now,
the io.c layer still assert()s that all callers are sector-aligned,
but that can be relaxed when a later patch implements byte-based
block status. Therefore, for the most part this patch is just the
addition of scaling at the callers followed by inverse scaling at
bdrv_is_allocated(). But some code, particularly stream_run(),
gets a lot simpler because it no longer has to mess with sectors.
Leave comments where we can further simplify by switching to
byte-based iterations, once later patches eliminate the need for
sector-aligned operations.

bdrv_is_allocated_above() was relying on intermediate->total_sectors,
which is a field that can have stale contents depending on the value
of intermediate->has_variable_length. An audit shows that we are safe
(we were first calling through bdrv_co_get_block_status() which in
turn calls bdrv_nb_sectors() and therefore just refreshed the current
length), but it's nicer to favor our accessor functions to avoid having
to repeat such an audit, even if it means refresh_total_sectors() is
called more frequently.

We document that *file is valid if the return is not an error and
includes BDRV_BLOCK_OFFSET_VALID, but forgot to obey this contract
when a driver (such as blkdebug) lacks a callback. Messed up in
commit 67a0fd2 (v2.6), when we added the file parameter.
Enhance qemu-iotest 177 to cover this, using a sequence that would
print garbage or even SEGV, because it was dererefencing through
uninitialized memory. [The resulting test output shows that we
have less-than-ideal block status from the blkdebug driver, but
that's a separate fix coming up soon.]
Setting *file on all paths that return BDRV_BLOCK_OFFSET_VALID is
enough to fix the crash, but we can go one step further: always
setting *file, even on error, means that a broken caller that
blindly dereferences file without checking for error is now more
likely to get a reliable SEGV instead of randomly acting on garbage,
making it easier to diagnose such buggy callers. Adding an
assertion that file is set where expected doesn't hurt either.

When we have a BDS with unallocated clusters, but asking the status
of its underlying bs->file or backing layer encounters an end-of-file
condition, we know that the rest of the unallocated area will read as
zeroes. However, pre-patch, this required two separate calls to
bdrv_get_block_status(), as the first call stops at the point where
the underlying file ends. Thanks to BDRV_BLOCK_EOF, we can now widen
the results of the primary status if the secondary status already
includes BDRV_BLOCK_ZERO.
In turn, this fixes a TODO mentioned in iotest 154, where we can now
see that all sectors in a partial cluster at the end of a file read
as zero when coupling the shorter backing file's status along with our
knowledge that the remaining sectors came from an unallocated cluster.
Also, note that the loop in bdrv_co_get_block_status_above() had an
inefficent exit: in cases where the active layer sets BDRV_BLOCK_ZERO
but does NOT set BDRV_BLOCK_ALLOCATED (namely, where we know we read
zeroes merely because our unallocated clusters lie beyond the backing
file's shorter length), we still ended up probing the backing layer
even though we already had a good answer.

Discard is advisory, so rounding the requests to alignment
boundaries is never semantically wrong from the data that
the guest sees. But at least the Dell Equallogic iSCSI SANs
has an interesting property that its advertised discard
alignment is 15M, yet documents that discarding a sequence
of 1M slices will eventually result in the 15M page being
marked as discarded, and it is possible to observe which
pages have been discarded.
Between commits 9f1963b and b8d0a980, we converted the block
layer to a byte-based interface that ultimately ignores any
unaligned head or tail based on the driver's advertised
discard granularity, which means that qemu 2.7 refuses to
pass any discard request smaller than 15M down to the Dell
Equallogic hardware. This is a slight regression in behavior
compared to earlier qemu, where a guest executing discards
in power-of-2 chunks used to be able to get every page
discarded, but is now left with various pages still allocated
because the guest requests did not align with the hardware's
15M pages.
Since the SCSI specification says nothing about a minimum
discard granularity, and only documents the preferred
alignment, it is best if the block layer gives the driver
every bit of information about discard requests, rather than
rounding it to alignment boundaries early.
Rework the block layer discard algorithm to mirror the write
zero algorithm: always peel off any unaligned head or tail
and manage that in isolation, then do the bulk of the request
on an aligned boundary. The fallback when the driver returns
-ENOTSUP for an unaligned request is to silently ignore that
portion of the discard request; but for devices that can pass
the partial request all the way down to hardware, this can
result in the hardware coalescing requests and discarding
aligned pages after all.

Commit 443668ca rewrote the write_zeroes logic to guarantee that
an unaligned request never crosses a cluster boundary. But
in the rewrite, the new code assumed that at most one iteration
would be needed to get to an alignment boundary.
However, it is easy to trigger an assertion failure: the Linux
kernel limits loopback devices to advertise a max_transfer of
only 64k. Any operation that requires falling back to writes
rather than more efficient zeroing must obey max_transfer during
that fallback, which means an unaligned head may require multiple
iterations of the write fallbacks before reaching the aligned
boundaries, when layering a format with clusters larger than 64k
atop the protocol of file access to a loopback device.
Test case:
$ qemu-img create -f qcow2 -o cluster_size=1M file 10M
$ losetup /dev/loop2 /path/to/file
$ qemu-io -f qcow2 /dev/loop2
qemu-io> w 7m 1k
qemu-io> w -z 8003584 2093056
In fairness to Denis (as the original listed author of the culprit
commit), the faulty logic for at most one iteration is probably all
my fault in reworking his idea. But the solution is to restore what
was in place prior to that commit: when dealing with an unaligned
head or tail, iterate as many times as necessary while fragmenting
the operation at max_transfer boundaries.

Commit 3ff2f67a changed bdrv_co_flush() so that no flush is issues if
the image hasn't been dirtied since the last flush. This is not quite
correct: The condition should be that the image hasn't been dirtied
since the last _successful_ flush. This patch changes the logic
accordingly.
Without this fix, subsequent bdrv_co_flush() calls would return success
without actually doing anything even though the image is still dirty.
The difference is visible in some blkdebug test cases where error
messages incorrectly disappeared after commit 3ff2f67a.

bdrv_drain_all() doesn't allow the caller to do anything after all
pending requests have been completed but before block jobs are
resumed.
This patch splits bdrv_drain_all() into _begin() and _end() for that
purpose. It also adds aio_{disable,enable}_external() calls to disable
external clients in the meantime.
An important restriction of this split is that no new block jobs or
BlockDriverStates can be created between the bdrv_drain_all_begin()
and bdrv_drain_all_end() calls. This is not a concern now because
we'll only be using this in bdrv_reopen_multiple(), but it must be
dealt with if we ever have other uses cases in the future.

aio_poll is not thread safe; for example bdrv_drain can hang if
the last in-flight I/O operation is completed in the I/O thread after
the main thread has checked bs->in_flight.
The bug remains latent as long as all of it is called within
aio_context_acquire/aio_context_release, but this will change soon.
To fix this, if bdrv_drain is called from outside the I/O thread,
signal the main AioContext through a dummy bottom half. The event
loop then only runs in the I/O thread.

bdrv_requests_pending is checking children to also wait until internal
requests (such as metadata writes) have completed. However, checking
children is in general overkill. Children requests can be of two kinds:
- requests caused by an operation on bs, e.g. a bdrv_aio_write to bs
causing a write to bs->file->bs. In this case, the parent's in_flight
count will always be incremented by at least one for every request in
the child.
- asynchronous metadata writes or flushes. Such writes can be started
even if bs's in_flight count is zero, but not after the .bdrv_drain
callback has been invoked.
This patch therefore changes bdrv_drain to finish I/O in the parent
(after which the parent's in_flight will be locked to zero), call
bdrv_drain (after which the parent will not generate I/O on the child
anymore), and then wait for internal I/O in the children to complete.

Commit fe1a9cbc moved the flush_all routine from the bdrv layer to the
block-backend layer. In doing so, however, the semantics of the routine
changed slightly such that flush_all now used blk_flush instead of
bdrv_flush.
blk_flush can fail if the attached device model reports that it is not
"available," (i.e. the tray is open.) This changed the semantics of
flush_all such that it can now fail for e.g. open CDROM drives.
Reintroduce bdrv_flush_all to regain the old semantics without having to
alter the behavior of blk_flush or blk_flush_all, which are already
'doing the right thing.'

This patch reduce CPU usage of flush operations a bit. When we have one
flush completed we should kick only next operation. We should not start
all pending operations in the hope that they will go back to wait on
wait_queue.
Also there is a technical possibility that requests will get reordered
with the previous approach. After wakeup all requests are removed from
the wait queue. They become active and they are processed one-by-one
adding to the wait queue in the same order. Though new flush can arrive
while all requests are not put into the queue.

block: ignore flush requests when storage is clean
has introduced a regression.
There is a problem that it is still possible for 2 requests to execute
in non sequential fashion and sometimes this results in a deadlock
when bdrv_drain_one/all are called for BDS with such stalled requests.
1. Current flushed_gen and flush_started_gen is 1.
2. Request 1 enters bdrv_co_flush to with write_gen 1 (i.e. the same
as flushed_gen). It gets past flushed_gen != flush_started_gen and
sets flush_started_gen to 1 (again, the same it was before).
3. Request 1 yields somewhere before exiting bdrv_co_flush
4. Request 2 enters bdrv_co_flush with write_gen 2. It gets past
flushed_gen != flush_started_gen and sets flush_started_gen to 2.
5. Request 2 runs to completion and sets flushed_gen to 2
6. Request 1 is resumed, runs to completion and sets flushed_gen to 1.
However flush_started_gen is now 2.
From here on out flushed_gen is always != to flush_started_gen and all
further requests will wait on flush_queue. This change replaces
flush_started_gen with an explicitly tracked active flush request.

Dell Equallogic iSCSI SANs have a very unusual advertised geometry:
$ iscsi-inq -e 1 -c $((0xb0)) iscsi://XXX/0
wsnz:0
maximum compare and write length:1
optimal transfer length granularity:0
maximum transfer length:0
optimal transfer length:0
maximum prefetch xdread xdwrite transfer length:0
maximum unmap lba count:30720
maximum unmap block descriptor count:2
optimal unmap granularity:30720
ugavalid:1
unmap granularity alignment:0
maximum write same length:30720
which says that both the maximum and the optimal discard size
is 15M. It is not immediately apparent if the device allows
discard requests not aligned to the optimal size, nor if it
allows discards at a finer granularity than the optimal size.
I tried to find details in the SCSI Commands Reference Manual
Rev. A on what valid values of maximum and optimal sizes are
permitted, but while that document mentions a "Block Limits
VPD Page", I couldn't actually find documentation of that page
or what values it would have, or if a SCSI device has an
advertisement of its minimal unmap granularity. So it is not
obvious to me whether the Dell Equallogic device is compliance
with the SCSI specification.
Fortunately, it is easy enough to support non-power-of-2 sizing,
even if it means we are less efficient than truly possible when
targetting that device (for example, it means that we refuse to
unmap anything that is not a multiple of 15M and aligned to a
15M boundary, even if the device truly does support a smaller
granularity where unmapping actually works).

Drivers should be able to rely on the block layer honoring the
max transfer length, rather than needing to return -EINVAL
(iscsi) or manually fragment things (nbd). We already fragment
write zeroes at the block layer; this patch adds the fragmentation
for normal writes, after requests have been aligned (fragmenting
before alignment would lead to multiple unaligned requests, rather
than just the head and tail).
When fragmenting a large request where FUA was requested, but
where we know that FUA is implemented by flushing all requests
rather than the given request, then we can still get by with
only one flush. Note, however, that we need a followup patch
to the raw format driver to avoid a regression in the number of
flushes actually issued.
The return value was previously nebulous on success (sometimes
zero, sometimes the length written); since we never have a short
write, and since fragmenting may store yet another positive
value in 'ret', change the function to always return 0 on success,
matching what we do in bdrv_aligned_preadv().

Some guests (win2008 server for example) do a lot of unnecessary
flushing when underlying media has not changed. This adds additional
overhead on host when calling fsync/fdatasync.
This change introduces a write generation scheme in BlockDriverState.
Current write generation is checked against last flushed generation to
avoid unnessesary flushes.
The problem with excessive flushing was found by a performance test
which does parallel directory tree creation (from 2 processes).
Results improved from 0.424 loops/sec to 0.432 loops/sec.
Each loop creates 10^3 directories with 10 files in each.
This affected some blkdebug testcases that were expecting error logs from
failure-injected flushes which are now skipped entirely
(tests 026 071 089).
This also affects the performance of block jobs and thus BLOCK_JOB_READY
events for driver-mirror and active block-commit commands now arrives
faster, before QMP send successfully returns to caller (tests 141 144).

This is the final patch for converting the common I/O path to take
a BdrvChild parameter instead of BlockDriverState.
The completion of this conversion means that all users that perform I/O
on an image need to actually hold a reference (in the form of BdrvChild,
possible as part of a BlockBackend) to that image. This also protects
against inconsistent use of BlockBackend vs. BlockDriverState functions
because direct use of a BlockDriverState isn't possible any more and
blk->root is private for block-backends.c.
In addition, we can now distinguish different users in the I/O path,
and the future op blockers work is going to add assertions based on

Sector-based limits are awkward to think about; in our on-going

discard_alignment. Rename them, using 'pdiscard' as an aid to
track which remaining discard interfaces need conversion, and so
that the compiler will help us catch the change in semantics
across any rebased code. The BlockLimits type is now completely
byte-based; and in iscsi.c, sector_limits_lun2qemu() is no
longer needed.
pdiscard_alignment is made unsigned (we use power-of-2 alignments
as bitmasks, where unsigned is easier to think about) while
leaving max_pdiscard signed (since we still have an 'int'
interface); this is comparable to what commit cf081fc did for
write zeroes limits. We may later want to make everything an

We want to eventually stick request_alignment alongside other
BlockLimits, but first, we must ensure it is populated at the
same time as all other limits, rather than being a special case
that is set only when a block is first opened.
Now that all drivers have been updated to supply an override
of request_alignment during their .bdrv_refresh_limits(), as
needed, the block layer itself can defer setting the default
alignment until part of the overall bdrv_refresh_limits().

Another step towards removing sector-based interfaces: convert
the maximum write and minimum alignment values from sectors to
bytes. Rename the variables to let the compiler check that all
users are converted to the new semantics.
The maximum remains an int as long as BDRV_REQUEST_MAX_SECTORS
is constrained by INT_MAX (this means that we can't even
support a 2G write_zeroes, but just under it) - changing
operation lengths to unsigned or to 64-bits is a much bigger
audit, and debatable if we even want to do it (since at the
core, a 32-bit platform will still have ssize_t as its
underlying limit on write()).
Meanwhile, alignment is changed to 'uint32_t', since it makes no
sense to have an alignment larger than the maximum write, and
less painful to use an unsigned type with well-defined behavior
in bit operations than to have to worry about what happens if
a driver mistakenly supplies a negative alignment.
Add an assert that no one was trying to use sectors to get a
write zeroes larger than 2G, and therefore that a later conversion
to bytes won't be impacted by keeping the limit at 32 bits.

We should split requests even if they are less than write_zeroes_alignment.
For example we can have the following request:
offset 62k
size 4k
write_zeroes_alignment 64k
The original code sent 1 request covering 2 qcow2 clusters, and resulted
in both clusters being allocated. But by splitting the request, we can
cater to the case where one of the two clusters can be zeroed as a
whole, for only 1 cluster allocated after the operation.

The block layer has a couple of cases where it can lose
Force Unit Access semantics when writing a large block of
zeroes, such that the request returns before the zeroes
have been guaranteed to land on underlying media.
SCSI does not support FUA during WRITESAME(10/16); FUA is only
supported if it falls back to WRITE(10/16). But where the
underlying device is new enough to not need a fallback, it
means that any upper layer request with FUA semantics was
silently ignoring BDRV_REQ_FUA.
Conversely, NBD has situations where it can support FUA but not
ZERO_WRITE; when that happens, the generic block layer fallback
to bdrv_driver_pwritev() (or the older bdrv_co_writev() in qemu
2.6) was losing the FUA flag.
The problem of losing flags unrelated to ZERO_WRITE has been
latent in bdrv_co_do_write_zeroes() since commit aa7bfbff, but
back then, it did not matter because there was no FUA flag. It
became observable when commit 93f5e6d8 paved the way for flags
that can impact correctness, when we should have been using
bdrv_co_writev_flags() with modified flags. Compare to commit
9eeb6dd, which got flag manipulation right in
bdrv_co_do_zero_pwritev().
Symptoms: I tested with qemu-io with default writethrough cache
(which is supposed to use FUA semantics on every write), and
targetted an NBD client connected to a server that intentionally
did not advertise NBD_FLAG_SEND_FUA. When doing 'write 0 512',
the NBD client sent two operations (NBD_CMD_WRITE then
NBD_CMD_FLUSH) to get the fallback FUA semantics; but when doing
'write -z 0 512', the NBD client sent only NBD_CMD_WRITE.
The fix is do to a cleanup bdrv_co_flush() at the end of the
operation if any step in the middle relied on a BDS that does
not natively support FUA for that step (note that we don't
need to flush after every operation, if the operation is broken
into chunks based on bounce-buffer sizing). Each BDS gains a
new flag .supported_zero_flags, which parallels the use of
.supported_write_flags but only when accessing a zero write
operation (the flags MUST be different, because of SCSI having
different semantics based on WRITE vs. WRITESAME; and also
because BDRV_REQ_MAY_UNMAP only makes sense on zero writes).
Also fix some documentation to describe -ENOTSUP semantics,
particularly since iscsi depends on those semantics.
Down the road, we may want to add a driver where its
.bdrv_co_pwritev() honors all three of BDRV_REQ_FUA,
BDRV_REQ_ZERO_WRITE, and BDRV_REQ_MAY_UNMAP, and advertise
this via bs->supported_write_flags for blocks opened by that
driver; such a driver should NOT supply .bdrv_co_write_zeroes
nor .supported_zero_flags. But none of the drivers touched
in this patch want to do that (the act of writing zeroes is
different enough from normal writes to deserve a second
callback).

Pre-patch, .supported_write_flags lives at the driver level, which
means we are blindly declaring that all block devices using a
given driver will either equally support FUA, or that we need a
fallback at the block layer. But there are drivers where FUA
support is a per-block decision: the NBD block driver is dependent
on the remote server advertising NBD_FLAG_SEND_FUA (and has
fallback code to duplicate the flush that the block layer would do
if NBD had not set .supported_write_flags); and the iscsi block
driver is dependent on the mode sense bits advertised by the
underlying device (and is currently silently ignoring FUA requests
if the underlying device does not support FUA).
The fix is to make supported flags as a per-BDS option, set during
.bdrv_open(). This patch moves the variable and fixes NBD and iscsi
to set it only conditionally; later patches will then further
simplify the NBD driver to quit duplicating work done at the block
layer, as well as tackle the fact that SCSI does not support FUA
semantics on WRITESAME(10/16) but only on WRITE(10/16).

Using the nested aio_poll() in coroutine is a bad idea. This patch
replaces the aio_poll loop in bdrv_drain with a BH, if called in
coroutine.
For example, the bdrv_drain() in mirror.c can hang when a guest issued
request is pending on it in qemu_co_mutex_lock().
Mirror coroutine in this case has just finished a request, and the block
job is about to complete. It calls bdrv_drain() which waits for the
other coroutine to complete. The other coroutine is a scsi-disk request.
The deadlock happens when the latter is in turn pending on the former to
yield/terminate, in qemu_co_mutex_lock(). The state flow is as below
(assuming a qcow2 image):
mirror coroutine scsi-disk coroutine
-------------------------------------------------------------
do last write
qcow2:qemu_co_mutex_lock()
...
scsi disk read
tracked request begin
qcow2:qemu_co_mutex_lock.enter
qcow2:qemu_co_mutex_unlock()
bdrv_drain
while (has tracked request)
aio_poll()
In the scsi-disk coroutine, the qemu_co_mutex_lock() will never return
because the mirror coroutine is blocked in the aio_poll(blocking=true).
With this patch, the added qemu_coroutine_yield() allows the scsi-disk
coroutine to make progress as expected:
mirror coroutine scsi-disk coroutine
-------------------------------------------------------------
do last write
qcow2:qemu_co_mutex_lock()
...
scsi disk read
tracked request begin
qcow2:qemu_co_mutex_lock.enter
qcow2:qemu_co_mutex_unlock()
bdrv_drain.enter
> schedule BH
> qemu_coroutine_yield()
> qcow2:qemu_co_mutex_lock.return
> ...
tracked request end
...
(resumed from BH callback)
bdrv_drain.return
...

This function will allow drivers to implement BDRV_REQ_FUA natively
instead of sending a separate flush after the write.

Whether a write cache is used or not is a decision that concerns the
user (e.g. the guest device) rather than the backend. It was already
logically part of the BB level as bdrv_move_feature_fields() always kept
it on top of the BDS tree; with this patch, the core of it (the actual
flag and the additional flushes) is also implemented there.
Direct callers of bdrv_open() must pass BDRV_O_CACHE_WB now if bs
doesn't have a BlockBackend attached.

We don't want to silently ignore a flush error.
Also, there is little point in avoiding the flush for writethrough modes
and once WCE is moved to the BB layer, we definitely need the flush here
because bdrv_pwrite() won't involve one any more.

This patch adds callback for flush request. This callback is responsible
for flushing whole block devices stack. bdrv_flush function does not
proceed to underlying devices. It should be performed by this callback
function, if needed.
