Sector-based limits are awkward to think about; in our on-going
quest to move to byte-based interfaces, convert max_transfer_length
and opt_transfer_length. Rename them (dropping the _length suffix)
so that the compiler will help us catch the change in semantics
across any rebased code, and improve the documentation. Use unsigned
values, so that we don't have to worry about negative values and
so that bit-twiddling is easier; however, we are still constrained
by 2^31 of signed int in most APIs.
When a value comes from an external source (iscsi and raw-posix),
sanitize the results to ensure that opt_transfer is a power of 2.

In order to use the modern byte-based .bdrv_co_preadv/pwritev()
interface, this patch switches raw-posix to coroutine-based interfaces
as a first step. In terms of semantics and performance, it doesn't make
a difference with the existing code whether we go from a coroutine to a
callback-based interface already in block/io.c or only in linux-aio.c
As there have been concerns in the past that this change may be a step
in the wrong direction with respect to a possible AIO fast path, the
old callback-based interface for linux-aio is left around and can be
reactivated when a fast path (e.g. directly from virtio-blk dataplane,
bypassing the whole block layer) is implemented.

Signed-off-by: Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com>
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).

Commit 57cb38b included qapi/error.h into qemu/osdep.h to get the
Error typedef. Since then, we've moved to include qemu/osdep.h
everywhere. Its file comment explains: "To avoid getting into
possible circular include dependencies, this file should not include
any other QEMU headers, with the exceptions of config-host.h,
compiler.h, os-posix.h and os-win32.h, all of which are doing a
similar job to this file and are under similar constraints."
qapi/error.h doesn't do a similar job, and it doesn't adhere to
similar constraints: it includes qapi-types.h. That's in excess of
100KiB of crap most .c files don't actually need.
Add the typedef to qemu/typedefs.h, and include that instead of
qapi/error.h. Include qapi/error.h in .c files that need it and don't
get it now. Include qapi-types.h in qom/object.h for uint16List.
Update scripts/clean-includes accordingly. Update it further to match
reality: replace config.h by config-target.h, add sysemu/os-posix.h,
sysemu/os-win32.h. Update the list of includes in the qemu/osdep.h
comment quoted above similarly.
This reduces the number of objects depending on qapi/error.h from "all

qapi-types.h shrinks only a little. More work is needed for that one.

In order to fix this, one type for the sector that contains EOF must be

for (i = 0; i < 100000; i++)
write(fd, buf, 4096);

The difference is quite reliable.
On the other hand we do not want at the moment to enforce bounce
buffering if guest request is aligned to 512 bytes.
The patch changes default bounce buffer optimal alignment to
MAX(page size, 4k). 4k is chosen as maximal known sector size on real

The justification of the performance improve is quite interesting.
From the kernel point of view each request to the disk was split

The patch introduces new concept: minimal memory alignment for bounce
buffers. Original so called "optimal" value is actually minimal required
value for aligment. It should be used for validation that the IOVec
is properly aligned and bounce buffer is not required.
Though, from the performance point of view, it would be better if
bounce buffer or IOVec allocated by QEMU will be aligned stricter.
The patch does not change any alignment value yet.

Currently, if the user requests aio=native, but forgets to choose a
cache mode that sets O_DIRECT, that request is silently ignored and raw
falls back to aio=threads.
Deprecate that behaviour so we can make it an error in future qemu
versions.

Raise your hand if you have a physical floppy drive in a computer
you've powered on in 2015. Okay, I see we got a few weirdos in the
audience. That's okay, weirdos are welcome here.
Kidding aside, media change detection doesn't fully work, isn't going
to be fixed, and floppy passthrough just isn't earning its keep
anymore.
Deprecate block driver host_floppy now, so we can drop it after a

Since commit c25f53b06e ("raw: Probe
required direct I/O alignment") QEMU has failed to launch if image files
produce I/O errors.
Previously, QEMU would launch successfully and the guest would see the
errors when attempting I/O.
This is a regression and may prevent multipath I/O inside the guest,
where QEMU must launch and let the guest figure out by itself which
disks are online.
Tweak the alignment probing code in raw-posix.c to explicitly look for
EINVAL on Linux instead of bailing. The kernel refuses misaligned
requests with this error code and other error codes can be ignored.

Introduce driver methods of defining disk blocksizes (physical and
logical) and hard drive geometry.
Methods are only implemented for "host_device". For "raw" devices
driver calls child's method.
For now geometry detection will only work for DASD devices. To check
that a local check_for_dasd function was introduced. It calls BIODASDINFO2
ioctl and returns its rc.
Blocksizes detection function will probe sizes for DASD devices.

This variable is used only when on of the following macros are defined
CONFIG_XFS, CONFIG_FALLOCATE, CONFIG_FALLOCATE_PUNCH_HOLE or
CONFIG_FALLOCATE_ZERO_RANGE. Fortunately, CONFIG_FALLOCATE_PUNCH_HOLE
and CONFIG_FALLOCATE_ZERO_RANGE could be defined only along with
CONFIG_FALLOCATE. Therefore checking for CONFIG_XFS or CONFIG_FALLOCATE

as being "growable" (that is, they are allowed to grow; they are not

This sequence works efficiently if FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE is not supported.
Unfortunately, FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE is supported on really modern systems
and only for a couple of filesystems. FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE is much more
mature.
The sequence of 2 operations FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE and 0 is necessary due
to the following reasons:
- FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE creates a hole in the file, the file becomes
sparse. In order to retain original functionality we must allocate
disk space afterwards. This is done using fallocate(0) call
- fallocate(0) without preceeding FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE will do nothing
if called above already allocated areas of the file, i.e. the content
will not be zeroed
This should increase the performance a bit for not-so-modern kernels.

There is a possibility that we are extending our image and thus writing
zeroes beyond the end of the file. In this case we do not need to care
about the hole to make sure that there is no data in the file under
this offset (pre-condition to fallocate(0) to work). We could simply call
fallocate(0).
This improves the performance of writing zeroes even on really old
platforms which do not have even FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE.
Before the patch do_fallocate was used when either
CONFIG_FALLOCATE_PUNCH_HOLE or CONFIG_FALLOCATE_ZERO_RANGE are defined.
Now the story is different. CONFIG_FALLOCATE is defined when Linux
fallocate is defined, posix_fallocate is completely different story
(CONFIG_POSIX_FALLOCATE). CONFIG_FALLOCATE is mandatory prerequite
for both CONFIG_FALLOCATE_PUNCH_HOLE and CONFIG_FALLOCATE_ZERO_RANGE
thus we are on the safe side.
