error_report() terminates the message with a newline. Strip it it
from its arguments.
This fixes a few error messages lacking a newline:
net_handle_fd_param()'s "No file descriptor named %s found", and
tap_open()'s "vnet_hdr=1 requested, but no kernel support for
IFF_VNET_HDR available" (all three versions).
There's one place that passes arguments without newlines
intentionally: load_vmstate(). Fix it up.
Add three new qdev properties to export block topology information to
the guest. This is needed to get optimal I/O alignment for RAID arrays
or SSDs.
The options are:
- physical_block_size to specify the physical block size of the device,
this is going to increase from 512 bytes to 4096 kilobytes for many
modern storage devices
- min_io_size to specify the minimal I/O size without performance impact,
this is typically set to the RAID chunk size for arrays.
- opt_io_size to specify the optimal sustained I/O size, this is
typically the RAID stripe width for arrays.
I decided to not auto-probe these values from blkid which might easily
be possible as I don't know how to deal with these issues on migration.
Note that we specificly only set the physical_block_size, and not the
logial one which is the unit all I/O is described in. The reason for
that is that IDE does not support increasing the logical block size and
at last for now I want to stick to one meachnisms in queue and allow
for easy switching of transports for a given backing image which would
not be possible if scsi and virtio use real 4k sectors, while ide only
uses the physical block exponent.
To make this more common for the different block drivers introduce a
new BlockConf structure holding all common block properties and a
DEFINE_BLOCK_PROPERTIES macro to add them all together, mirroring
what is done for network drivers. Also switch over all block drivers
to use it, except for the floppy driver which has weird driveA/driveB
properties and probably won't require any advanced block options ever.
Example usage for a virtio device with 4k physical block size and
8k optimal I/O size:
-drive file=scratch.img,media=disk,cache=none,id=scratch \
-device virtio-blk-pci,drive=scratch,physical_block_size=4096,opt_io_size=8192

Okay, I started looking into how to handle scsi-generic I/O in the
new world order.
I think the best is to use the SG_IO ioctl instead of the read/write
interface as that allows us to support scsi passthrough on disk/cdrom
devices, too. See Hannes patch on the kvm list from August for an
example.
Now that we always do ioctls we don't need another abstraction than
bdrv_ioctl for the synchronous requests for now, and for asynchronous
requests I've added a aio_ioctl abstraction keeping it simple.
Long-term we might want to move the ops to a higher-level abstraction
and let the low-level code fill out the request header, but I'm lazy
enough to leave that to the people trying to support scsi-passthrough
on a non-Linux OS.
Tested lightly by issuing various sg_ commands from sg3-utils in a guest
to a host CDROM device.

When a scsi device is backed by a scsi generic device instead of an
ordinary host block device, the block API is abused in a couple of annoying
ways:
- nb_sectors is negative, and specifies a byte count instead of a sector count
- offset is ignored, since scsi-generic is essentially a packet protocol
This overloading makes hacking the block layer difficult. Remove it by
introducing a new explicit API for scsi-generic devices. The new API
is still backed by the old implementation, but at least the users are
insulated.

this patch allows to fully use a tape device connected to qemu through
the scsi-generic interface.
Previous patch introduced tape SCSI commands management, this one
improve error case management:
- the SCSI controller command completion must be called with the status
value, not the sense value. In the case of scsi-generic, the SCSI status
is given by the field status of sg_io_hdr_t (the value is left shifted
by one regarding status codes defined in /usr/include/scsi/scsi.h)
- when a read is aborted due to a mark/EOF/EOD/EOM, the len reported to
controller can be 0. LSI controller emulation doesn't know how to manage
this. A workaround found is to call the completion routine with
SCSI_REASON_DONE just after calling it with SCSI_REASON_DATA with len=0.
This patch also manages correctly the block size of the tape device.
This patch has been tested with a real tape device "HP C5683A", linux
guest (debian etch) and tools like "mt", "tar" and "btape".
Windows guest is not better supported than before...

This patch allows to use a "real" SCSI tape with qemu using
"-drive /dev/sgX,if=scsi".
It allows to decode correctly transfer length when the type of the
device is a tape.
Some issues remain when the application reading the tape tries to go
beyond the end of the stream (but they must be corrected at the SCSI
controller level).
