36d883ba0d xen-block: Fix double qlist remove and request leak
Commit a31ca6801c ("qemu/queue.h: clear linked list pointers on
remove") revealed that a request was removed twice from a list, once
in xen_block_finish_request() and a second time in
xen_block_release_request() when both function are called from
xen_block_complete_aio(). But also, the `requests_inflight' counter is
decreased twice, and thus became negative.

This is a bug that was introduced in bfd0d63660 ("xen-block: improve
response latency"), where a `finished' list was removed.

That commit also introduced a leak of request in xen_block_do_aio().
That function calls xen_block_finish_request() but the request is
never released after that.

To fix both issue, we do two changes:
- we squash finish_request() and release_request() together as we want
  to remove a request from 'inflight' list to add it to 'freelist'.
- before releasing a request, we need to let the other end know the
  result, thus we should call xen_block_send_response() before
  releasing a request.

The first change fixes the double QLIST_REMOVE() as we remove the extra
call. The second change makes the leak go away because if we want to
call finish_request(), we need to call a function that does all of
finish, send response, and release.

32d0b7be68 xen-bus/block: explicitly assign event channels to an AioContext
It is not safe to close an event channel from the QEMU main thread when
that channel's poller is running in IOThread context.

This patch adds a new xen_device_set_event_channel_context() function
to explicitly assign the channel AioContext, and modifies
xen_device_bind_event_channel() to initially assign the channel's poller
to the QEMU main thread context. The code in xen-block's dataplane is
then modified to assign the channel to IOThread context during
xen_block_dataplane_start() and de-assign it during in
xen_block_dataplane_stop(), such that the channel is always assigned
back to main thread context before it is closed. aio_set_fd_handler()
already deals with all the necessary synchronization when moving an fd
between AioContext-s so no extra code is needed to manage this.

ebb6ff25cd virtio-blk: Cancel the pending BH when the dataplane is reset
When 'system_reset' is called, the main loop clear the memory
region cache before the BH has a chance to execute. Later when
the deferred function is called, some assumptions that were
made when scheduling them are no longer true when they actually
execute.

This is what happens using a virtio-blk device (fresh RHEL7.8 install):

Include qemu/main-loop.h only where it's needed.  Touching it now
recompiles only some 1700 objects.  For block/aio.h and
qemu/event_notifier.h, these numbers drop from 5600 to 2800.  For the
others, they shrink only slightly.

345f42b4be xen-bus / xen-block: add support for event channel polling
This patch introduces a poll callback for event channel fd-s and uses
this to invoke the channel callback function.

To properly support polling, it is necessary for the event channel callback
function to return a boolean saying whether it has done any useful work or
not. Thus xen_block_dataplane_event() is modified to directly invoke
xen_block_handle_requests() and the latter only returns true if it actually
processes any requests. This also means that the call to qemu_bh_schedule()
is moved into xen_block_complete_aio(), which is more intuitive since the
only reason for doing a deferred poll of the shared ring should be because
there were previously insufficient resources to fully complete a previous
poll.

5feeb718d7 xen-block: support feature-large-sector-size
A recent Xen commit [1] clarified the semantics of sector based quantities
used in the blkif protocol such that it is now safe to create a xen-block
device with a logical_block_size != 512, as long as the device only
connects to a frontend advertizing 'feature-large-block-size'.

This patch modifies xen-block accordingly. It also uses a stack variable
for the BlockBackend in xen_block_realize() to avoid repeated dereferencing
of the BlockConf pointer, and changes the parameters of
xen_block_dataplane_create() so that the BlockBackend pointer and sector
size are passed expicitly rather than implicitly via the BlockConf.

These modifications have been tested against a recent Windows PV XENVBD
driver [2] using a xen-disk device with a 4kB logical block size.

2bcd05cf24 xen-block: scale sector based quantities correctly
The Xen blkif protocol requires that sector based quantities should be
interpreted strictly as multiples of 512 bytes. Specifically:

"first_sect and last_sect in blkif_request_segment, as well as
sector_number in blkif_request, are always expressed in 512-byte units."

Commit fcab2b464e "xen: add header and build dataplane/xen-block.c"
incorrectly modified behaviour to use the block device logical_block_size
property as the scale, instead of correctly shifting values by the
hardcoded BDRV_SECTOR_BITS (and hence scaling them to 512 byte units).
This patch undoes that change and restores compliance with the spec.

Furthermore, this patch also restores the original xen_disk behaviour
of advertizing a hardcoded 'sector-size' value of 512 in xenstore and
scaling 'sectors' accordingly. The realize() method is also modified to
fail if logical_block_size is set to anything other than 512.

c6025bd197 xen-block: avoid repeated memory allocation
The xen-block dataplane currently allocates memory to hold the data for
each request as that request is used, and frees it afterwards. Because
it requires page-aligned blocks, this interacts poorly with non-page-
aligned allocations and balloons the heap.

Instead, allocate the maximum possible buffer size required for the
protocol, which is BLKIF_MAX_SEGMENTS_PER_REQUEST (currently 11) pages
when the request structure is created, and keep that buffer until it is
destroyed. Since the requests are re-used via a free list, this should
actually improve memory usage.

bfd0d63660 xen-block: improve response latency
If the I/O ring is full, the guest cannot send any more requests
until some responses are sent. Only sending all available responses
just before checking for new work does not leave much time for the
guest to supply new work, so this will cause stalls if the ring gets
full. Also, not completing reads as soon as possible adds latency
to the guest.

To alleviate that, complete IO requests as soon as they come back.
xen_block_send_response() already returns a value indicating whether
a notify should be sent, which is all the batching we need.

When I/O consists of many small requests, performance is improved by
batching them together in a single io_submit() call. When there are
relatively few requests, the extra overhead is not worth it. This
introduces a check to start batching I/O requests via blk_io_plug()/
blk_io_unplug() in an amount proportional to the number which were
already in flight at the time we started reading the ring.

1010cadf62 virtio-blk: fix race between .ioeventfd_stop() and vq handler
If the main loop thread invokes .ioeventfd_stop() just as the vq handler
function begins in the IOThread then the handler may lose the race for
the AioContext lock.  By the time the vq handler is able to acquire the
AioContext lock the ioeventfd has already been removed and the handler
isn't supposed to run anymore!

Use the new aio_wait_bh_oneshot() function to perform ioeventfd removal
from within the IOThread.  This way no races with the vq handler are
possible.

12c1c7d7ce virtio-blk: dataplane: Don't batch notifications if EVENT_IDX is present
Commit 5b2ffbe4d9 ("virtio-blk: dataplane:
notify guest as a batch") deferred guest notification to a BH in order
batch notifications, with purpose of avoiding flooding the guest with
interruptions.

This optimization came with a cost. The average latency perceived in the
guest is increased by a few microseconds, but also when multiple IO
operations finish at the same time, the guest won't be notified until
all completions from each operation has been run. On the contrary,
virtio-scsi issues the notification at the end of each completion.

On the other hand, nowadays we have the EVENT_IDX feature that allows a
better coordination between QEMU and the Guest OS to avoid sending
unnecessary interruptions.

With this change, virtio-blk/dataplane only batches notifications if the
EVENT_IDX feature is not present.

Some numbers obtained with fio (ioengine=sync, iodepth=1, direct=1):

76143618a5 virtio: remove event notifier cleanup call on de-assign
The virtio_bus_set_host_notifier function no longer calls
event_notifier_cleanup when a event notifier is removed.

The commit updates the code to match the new behavior and calls
virtio_bus_cleanup_host_notifier after the notifier was de-assign
and no longer in use.

This change is a preparation to allow executing the
virtio_bus_set_host_notifier function in a memory region

When the function no success value to transmit, it usually make the
function return void. It has turned out not to be a success, because
it means that the extra local_err variable and error_propagate() will
be needed. It leads to cumbersome code, therefore, transmit success/
failure in the return value is worth.

So fix the return type of blkconf_apply_backend_options(),
blkconf_geometry() and virtio_blk_data_plane_create() to avoid it.

83d768b564 virtio: set ISR on dataplane notifications
Dataplane has been omitting forever the step of setting ISR when
an interrupt is raised.  This caused little breakage, because the
specification actually says that ISR may not be updated in MSI mode.

Some versions of the Windows drivers however didn't clear MSI mode
correctly, and proceeded using polling mode (using ISR, not the used
ring index!) for crashdump and hibernation.  If it were just crashdump
and hibernation it would not be a big deal, but recent releases of
Windows do not really shut down, but rather log out and hibernate to
make the next startup faster.  Hence, this manifested as a more serious
hang during shutdown with e.g. Windows 8.1 and virtio-win 1.8.0 RPMs.
Newer versions fixed this, while older versions do not use MSI at all.

The failure has always been there for virtio dataplane, but it became
visible after commits 9ffe337 ("virtio-blk: always use dataplane path
if ioeventfd is active", 2016-10-30) and ad07cd6 ("virtio-scsi: always
use dataplane path if ioeventfd is active", 2016-10-30) made virtio-blk
and virtio-scsi always use the dataplane code under KVM.  The good news
therefore is that it was not a bug in the patches---they were doing
exactly what they were meant for, i.e. shake out remaining dataplane bugs.

The fix is not hard, so it's worth arranging for the broken drivers.
The virtio_should_notify+event_notifier_set pair that is common to
virtio-blk and virtio-scsi dataplane is replaced with a new public
function virtio_notify_irqfd that also sets ISR.  The irqfd emulation
code now need not set ISR anymore, so virtio_irq is removed.

9ffe337c08 virtio-blk: always use dataplane path if ioeventfd is active
Override start_ioeventfd and stop_ioeventfd to start/stop the

- no need anymore for virtio_add_queue_aio (i.e. a revert of
  commit 0ff841f6d1)

- no need anymore to switch from generic ioeventfd handlers to
  dataplane

It detects some errors better:

    $ qemu-system-x86_64 -object iothread,id=io \
          -drive id=null,file=null-aio://,if=none,format=raw \
          -device virtio-blk-pci,ioeventfd=off,iothread=io,drive=null
    qemu-system-x86_64: -device virtio-blk-pci,ioeventfd=off,iothread=io,drive=null:
    ioeventfd is required for iothread

while previously it would have started just fine.

in how virtio-ccw handles an error---it doesn't disable

so, and if desired this behavior should be implemented in

virtio-bus.c.

Instead of ioeventfd_started, the ioeventfd_assign callback now

3482958383 virtio-blk: Remove op blocker for dataplane
Block layer is prepared to unspecialize dataplane, an evidence is this
almost complete list of unblocked operations. It has all types except
two (actually three if DATAPLANE itself counts but blockdev.c makes sure
attaching twice is not possible): MIRROR_TARGET and BACKUP_TARGET.

blockdev-mirror refuses to start if target is attached, so the first is
not a problem.

By removing BACKUP_TARGET, blockdev-backup will become permissive to
write to a virtio-blk dataplane disk, but that is not worse than
non-dataplane given the latter is already possible. In either case,
blockdev.c always checks the target and source are on the same
AioContext, or bring them together if possible.

da34e65cb4 include/qemu/osdep.h: Don't include qapi/error.h
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
of them" to less than a third.  Unfortunately, the number depending on
qapi-types.h shrinks only a little.  More work is needed for that one.

2906cddfec virtio-blk: fix "disabled data plane" mode
In disabled mode, virtio-blk dataplane seems to be enabled, but flow
actually goes through the normal virtio path.  This patch simplifies a bit
the handling of disabled mode.  In disabled mode, virtio_blk_handle_output
might be called even if s->dataplane is not NULL.

This is a bit tricky, because the current check for s->dataplane will
always trigger, causing a continuous stream of calls to
virtio_blk_data_plane_start.  Unfortunately, these calls will not
do anything.  To fix this, set the "started" flag even in disabled
mode, and skip virtio_blk_data_plane_start if the started flag is true.
The resulting changes also prepare the code for the next patch, were
virtio-blk dataplane will reuse the same virtio_blk_handle_output function
as "regular" virtio-blk.

Because struct VirtIOBlockDataPlane is opaque in virtio-blk.c, we have
to move s->dataplane->started inside struct VirtIOBlock.
