294cc35f3d block: Add wr_highest_sector blockstat
This adds the wr_highest_sector blockstat which implements what is generally
known as the high watermark. It is the highest offset of a sector written to
the respective BlockDriverState since it has been opened.

The query-blockstat QMP command is extended to add this value to the result,
and also to add the statistics of the underlying protocol in a new "parent"
field. Note that to get the "high watermark" of a qcow2 image, you need to look
into the wr_highest_sector field of the parent (which can be a file, a
host_device, ...). The wr_highest_sector of the qcow2 BlockDriverState itself
is the highest offset on the _virtual_ disk that the guest has written to.

419b19d9b4 qcow2: Implement bdrv_truncate() for growing images
This patch adds the ability to grow qcow2 images in-place using
bdrv_truncate().  This enables qemu-img resize command support for
qcow2.

Snapshots are not supported and bdrv_truncate() will return -ENOTSUP.
The notion of resizing an image with snapshots could lead to confusion:
users may expect snapshots to remain unchanged, but this is not possible
with the current qcow2 on-disk format where the header.size field is
global instead of per-snapshot.  Others may expect snapshots to change
size along with the current image data.  I think it is safest to not
support snapshots and perhaps add behavior later if there is a
consensus.

Backing images continue to work.  If the image is now larger than its
backing image, zeroes are read when accessing beyond the end of the
backing image.

51762288b4 block: Cache total_sectors to reduce bdrv_getlength calls
The BlockDriver bdrv_getlength function is called from the I/O code path
when checking that the request falls within the device.  Unfortunately
this involves an lseek system call in the raw protocol; every read or
write request will incur this lseek cost.

Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@siemens.com> identified this issue and its
latency overhead.  This patch caches device length in the existing
total_sectors variable so lseek calls can be avoided for fixed size
devices.

Growable devices fall back to the full bdrv_getlength code path because
I have not added logic to detect extending the size of the device in a
write.

66f82ceed6 block: Open the underlying image file in generic code
Format drivers shouldn't need to bother with things like file names, but rather
just get an open BlockDriverState for the underlying protocol. This patch
introduces this behaviour for bdrv_open implementation. For protocols which
need to access the filename to open their file/device/connection/... a new
callback bdrv_file_open is introduced which doesn't get an underlying file
opened.

For now, also some of the more obscure formats use bdrv_file_open because they
open() the file themselves instead of using the block.c functions. They need to
be fixed in later patches.

84a12e6648 block: separate raw images from the file protocol
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.

4d0e4ac703 Clean up definition of MAX_OPC_PARAM
MAX_OPC_PARAM is intended to refer to the maximum number of entries used
in gen_opparam_buf[] for any single helper call.  It is currently defined
as 10, but for 32-bit archs, the correct value (with a maximum for four
helper arguments) is 14, and for 64-bit archs, only 9 entries are needed.

tcg_gen_callN() fills four entries with the function address, flags,
number of args, etc. and on 32-bit archs uses a further two entries per
argument (with a maximum of four helper arguments), plus two more for the
return value.  On 64-bit archs, only half as many entries are used for the
args and the return value.

In reality, TBs tend not to consist purely of helper calls exceeding the
stated 10 gen_opparam_buf[] entries, so this would never actually be a
problem on 32-bit archs, but the definition is still rather confusing.

Disable throttling once a port is closed (and we discard all the

event or when a port is being removed. Ensure we free up the buffers

fa6111f215 iov: Add iov_to_buf and iov_size helpers
iov_to_buf() puts the buffer contents in the iov in a linearized buffer.

iov_size() gets the length of the contents in the iov.

The iov_to_buf() function is the memcpy_to_iovec() function that was
used in virtio-ballon.c.

e4d5639dbb iov: Introduce a new file for helpers around iovs, add iov_from_buf()
The virtio-net code uses iov_fill() which fills an iov from a linear
buffer. The virtio-serial-bus code does something similar in an
open-coded function.

Create a new iov.c file that has iov_from_buf().

Convert virtio-net and virtio-serial-bus over to use this functionality.
virtio-net used ints to hold sizes, the new function is going to use
size_t types.

Later commits will add the opposite functionality -- going from an iov
to a linear buffer.
