Add feature 'deprecated' to the deprecated QMP commands, so their
deprecation becomes visible in output of query-qmp-schema. Looks like
this:
{"name": "query-cpus",
"ret-type": "[164]",
"meta-type": "command",
"arg-type": "0",
---> "features": ["deprecated"]}
Management applications could conceivably use this for static
checking.
The deprecated commands are change, cpu-add, migrate-set-cache-size,
migrate_set_downtime, migrate_set_speed, query-cpus, query-events,
query-migrate-cache-size.
The deprecated command arguments are block-commit arguments @base and
@top, and block_set_io_throttle, blockdev-change-medium,
blockdev-close-tray, blockdev-open-tray, eject argument @device.
The deprecated command results are query-cpus-fast result @arch,
query-block result @dirty-bitmaps, query-named-block-nodes result
@encryption_key_missing and result @dirty-bitmaps's member @status.
Same for query-block result @inserted, which mirrors
query-named-block-nodes.

Starting from ceph Nautilus, RBD has support for namespaces, allowing
for finer grain ACLs on images inside a pool, and tenant isolation.
In the rbd cli tool documentation, the new image-spec and snap-spec are :
- [pool-name/[namespace-name/]]image-name
- [pool-name/[namespace-name/]]image-name@snap-name
When using an non namespace's enabled qemu, it complains about not
finding the image called namespace-name/image-name, thus we only need to
parse the image once again to find if there is a '/' in its name, and if
there is, use what is before it as the name of the namespace to later
pass it to rados_ioctx_set_namespace.
rados_ioctx_set_namespace if called with en empty string or a null
pointer as the namespace parameters pretty much does nothing, as it then
defaults to the default namespace.
The namespace is extracted inside qemu_rbd_parse_filename, stored in the
qdict, and used in qemu_rbd_connect to make it work with both qemu-img,
and qemu itself.

The current doc generation doesn't care much about indentation levels,

indentation.
Make the doc comments more strongly consistent about indentation
for multiline constructs like:
@arg: description line 1
description line 2
Returns: line one

so that there is always exactly one space after the colon, and
subsequent lines align with the first.
This commit is a purely whitespace change, and it does not alter the
generated .texi files (because the texi generation code strips away
all the extra whitespace). This does mean that we end up with some
over-length lines.
Note that when the documentation for an argument fits on a single
line like this:
@arg: one line only
then stray extra spaces after the ':' don't affect the rST output, so
I have not attempted to methodically fix them, though the preference
is a single space here too.

Sometimes it is useful to be able to add a node to the block graph that

This patch adds this capability to blkdebug.
(Note that you cannot make blkdebug release or share permissions that it
needs to take or cannot share, because this might result in assertion
failures in the block layer. But if the blkdebug node has no parents,
it will not take any permissions and share everything by default, so you
can then freely choose what permissions to take and share.)

Drop write notifiers and use filter node instead.
= Changes =
1. Add filter-node-name argument for backup qmp api. We have to do it
in this commit, as 257 needs to be fixed.
2. There are no more write notifiers here, so is_write_notifier
parameter is dropped from block-copy paths.
3. To sync with in-flight requests at job finish we now have drained
removing of the filter, we don't need rw-lock.
4. Block-copy is now using BdrvChildren instead of BlockBackends
5. As backup-top owns these children, we also move block-copy state
into backup-top's ownership.
= Iotest changes =
56: op-blocker doesn't shoot now, as we set it on source, but then
check on filter, when trying to start second backup.
To keep the test we instead can catch another collision: both jobs will
get 'drive0' job-id, as job-id parameter is unspecified. To prevent
interleaving with file-posix locks (as they are dependent on config)
let's use another target for second backup.
Also, it's obvious now that we'd like to drop this op-blocker at all
and add a test-case for two backups from one node (to different
destinations) actually works. But not in these series.
141: Output changed: prepatch, "Node is in use" comes from bdrv_has_blk
check inside qmp_blockdev_del. But we've dropped block-copy blk
objects, so no more blk objects on source bs (job blk is on backup-top
filter bs). New message is from op-blocker, which is the next check in
qmp_blockdev_add.
257: The test wants to emulate guest write during backup. They should
go to filter node, not to original source node, of course. Therefore we
need to specify filter node name and use it.

Accept bitmaps and sync policies for the other backup modes.
This allows us to do things like create a bitmap synced to a full backup
without a transaction, or start a resumable backup process.
Some combinations don't make sense, though:
- NEVER policy combined with any non-BITMAP mode doesn't do anything,
because the bitmap isn't used for input or output.
It's harmless, but is almost certainly never what the user wanted.
- sync=NONE is more questionable. It can't use on-success because this
job never completes with success anyway, and the resulting artifact
of 'always' is suspect: because we start with a full bitmap and only
copy out segments that get written to, the final output bitmap will
always be ... a fully set bitmap.
Maybe there's contexts in which bitmaps make sense for sync=none,
but not without more severe changes to the current job, and omitting
it here doesn't prevent us from adding it later.

This adds an "always" policy for bitmap synchronization. Regardless of if
the job succeeds or fails, the bitmap is *always* synchronized. This means
that for backups that fail part-way through, the bitmap retains a record of
which sectors need to be copied out to accomplish a new backup using the
old, partial result.
In effect, this allows us to "resume" a failed backup; however the new backup
will be from the new point in time, so it isn't a "resume" as much as it is
an "incremental retry." This can be useful in the case of extremely large
backups that fail considerably through the operation and we'd like to not waste
the work that was already performed.

Because the only bitmap sync mode is 'on-success', this adds no new

Together with @iotypes and @sector, this can be used to trap e.g. the
first read or write access to a certain sector without having to know
what happens internally in the block layer, i.e. which "real" events
happen right before such an access.

This new error option allows users of blkdebug to inject errors only on
certain kinds of I/O operations. Users usually want to make a very
specific operation fail, not just any; but right now they simply hope
that the event that triggers the error injection is followed up with
that very operation. That may not be true, however, because the block
layer is changing (including blkdebug, which may increase the number of
types of I/O operations on which to inject errors).
The new option's default has been chosen to keep backwards
compatibility.
Note that similar to the internal representation, we could choose to
expose this option as a list of I/O types. But there is no practical
use for this, because as described above, users usually know exactly
which kind of operation they want to make fail, so there is no need to
specify multiple I/O types at once. In addition, exposing this option
as a list would require non-trivial changes to qemu_opts_absorb_qdict().

A snapshot is something that reflects the state of something at a
certain point in time. It does not change.
The file our snapshot commands create (or the node they install) is not
a snapshot, as it does change over time. It is an overlay. We cannot
do anything about the parameter names, but we can at least adjust the
descriptions to reflect that fact.

In commit 23dece19da ('file-posix: Make auto-read-only dynamic') ,
auto-read-only=on changed its behaviour in file-posix for the 4.0
release. This change cannot be detected through the usual mechanisms
like schema introspection. Add a new feature flag to the schema to
allow libvirt to detect the presence of the new behaviour.

If COW areas of the newly allocated clusters are zeroes on the backing
image, efficient bdrv_write_zeroes(flags=BDRV_REQ_NO_FALLBACK) can be
used on the whole cluster instead of writing explicit zero buffers later
in perform_cow().
iotest 060:
write to the discarded cluster does not trigger COW anymore.
Use a backing image instead.
