b5042a3622 block: Rewrite the snapshot authorization mechanism for block filters.
This patch keep the recursive way of doing things but simplify it by giving
two responsabilities to all block filters implementors.

They will need to do two things:

-Set the is_filter field of their block driver to true.

-Implement the bdrv_recurse_is_first_non_filter method of their block driver like
it is done on the Quorum block driver. (block/quorum.c)

[Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> pointed out that this patch changes
the semantics of blkverify, which now recurses down both bs->file and
s->test_file.

938789ea92 block: bs->drv may be NULL in bdrv_debug_resume()
Currently, bdrv_debug_resume() requires every bs->drv in the BDS stack
to be NULL until a bs->drv with an implementation of bdrv_debug_resume()
is found. For a normal function, this would be fine, but this is a
function for debugging purposes and should therefore allow intermediate
BDS not to have a driver (i.e., be "ejected"). Otherwise, it is hard to
debug such situations.

3456a8d185 block: Update image size in bdrv_invalidate_cache()
After migration has completed, we call bdrv_invalidate_cache() so that
drivers which cache some data drop their stale copy of the data and
reread it from the image file to get a new version of data that the
source modified while the migration was running.

Reloading metadata from the image file is useless, though, if the size
of the image file stays stale (this is a value that is cached for all
image formats in block.c). Reads from (meta)data after the old EOF
return only zeroes, causing image corruption.

We need to update bs->total_sectors in all layers that could potentially
have changed their size (i.e. backing files are not a concern - if they
are changed, we're in bigger trouble)

eb909c7f72 block: Fix error path segfault in bdrv_open()
Using an invalid option for a block device that is opened with
BDRV_O_PROTOCOL led to drv = NULL, and when trying to include the driver
name in the error message, qemu dereferenced it:

    $ x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -drive file=/tmp/test.qcow2,file.foo=bar
    Segmentation fault (core dumped)

With this patch applied, the expected error message is printed:

    $ x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -drive file=/tmp/test.qcow2,file.foo=bar
    qemu-system-x86_64: -drive file=/tmp/test.qcow2,file.foo=bar: could

    support the option 'foo'

cd5d031e75 block: Keep "filename" option after parsing
Currently, bdrv_file_open() always removes the "filename" option from
the options QDict after bdrv_parse_filename() has been (successfully)
called. However, for drivers with bdrv_needs_filename, it makes more
sense for bdrv_parse_filename() to overwrite the "filename" option and
for bdrv_file_open() to fetch the filename from there.

Since there currently are no drivers that implement
bdrv_parse_filename() and have bdrv_needs_filename set, this does not
change current behavior.

90ce8a061b block: make bdrv_swap rebuild the bs graph node list field.
Moving only the node_name one field could lead to some inconsitencies where a
node_name was defined on a bs which was not registered in the graph node list.

bdrv_swap between a named node bs and a non named node bs would lead to this.

bdrv_make_anon would then crash because it would try to remove the bs from the
graph node list while it is not in it.

This patch remove named node bses from the graph node list before doing the swap
then insert them back.

28de2dcd88 block: Assert serialisation assumptions in pwritev
If a request calls wait_serialising_requests() and actually has to wait
in this function (i.e. a coroutine yield), other requests can run and
previously read data (like the head or tail buffer) could become
outdated. In this case, we would have to restart from the beginning to
read in the updated data.

However, we're lucky and don't actually need to do that: A request can
only wait in the first call of wait_serialising_requests() because we
mark it as serialising before that call, so any later requests would
wait. So as we don't wait in practice, we don't have to reload the data.

This is an important assumption that may not be broken or data
corruption will happen. Document it with some assertions.

1b7fd72955 block: rename buffer_alignment to guest_block_size
The alignment field is now set to the value that is promised to the
guest, rather than required by the host.  The next patches will make
QEMU aware of the host-provided values, so make this clear.

The alignment is also not about memory buffers, but about the sectors on
the disk, change the documentation of the field.

At this point, the field is set by the device emulation, but completely
ignored by the block layer.

339064d506 block: Don't use guest sector size for qemu_blockalign()
bs->buffer_alignment is set by the device emulation and contains the
logical block size of the guest device. This isn't something that the
block layer should know, and even less something to use for determining
the right alignment of buffers to be used for the host.

The new BlockLimits field opt_mem_alignment tells the qemu block layer
the optimal alignment to be used so that no bounce buffer must be used
in the driver.

This patch may change the buffer alignment from 4k to 512 for all
callers that used qemu_blockalign() with the top-level image format
BlockDriverState. The value was never propagated to other levels in the
tree, so in particular raw-posix never required anything else than 512.

While on disks with 4k sectors direct I/O requires a 4k alignment,
memory may still be okay when aligned to 512 byte boundaries. This is
what must have happened in practice, because otherwise this would
already have failed earlier. Therefore I don't expect regressions even
with this intermediate state. Later, raw-posix can implement the hook
and expose a different memory alignment requirement.

1ff735bdc4 block: Detect unaligned length in bdrv_qiov_is_aligned()
For an O_DIRECT request to succeed, it's not only necessary that all
base addresses in the qiov are aligned, but also that each length in it
is aligned.

355ef4ac95 block: Update BlockLimits when they might have changed
When reopening with different flags, or when backing files disappear
from the chain, the limits may change. Make sure they get updated in
these cases.

466ad822de block: Inherit opt_transfer_length
When there is a format driver between the backend, it's not guaranteed
that exposing the opt_transfer_length for the format driver results in
the optimal requests (because of fragmentation etc.), but it can't make
things worse, so let's just do it.
