It is possible to enable only a subset of the block drivers with the
"--block-drv-rw-whitelist" option of the "configure" script. All other
drivers are marked as unusable (or only included as read-only with the
"--block-drv-ro-whitelist" option). If an iotest is now using such a
disabled block driver, it is failing - which is bad, since at least the
tests in the "auto" group should be able to deal with this situation.
Thus let's introduce a "_require_drivers" function that can be used by
the shell tests to check for the availability of certain drivers first,
and marks the test as "not run" if one of the drivers is missing.
This patch mainly targets the test in the "auto" group which should
never fail in such a case, but also improves some of the other tests
along the way. Note that we also assume that the "qcow2" and "file"
drivers are always available - otherwise it does not make sense to
run "make check-block" at all (which only tests with qcow2 by default).

Bash is not always installed as /bin/bash. In particular on OpenBSD,
the package installs it in /usr/local/bin.
Use the 'env' shebang to search bash in the $PATH.
Patch created mechanically by running:
$ git grep -lE '#! ?/bin/bash' -- tests/qemu-iotests \
| while read f; do \
sed -i 's|^#!.\?/bin/bash$|#!/usr/bin/env bash|' $f; \
done

Bash allows functions to be declared with or without the leading
keyword 'function'; but including the keyword does not comply with
POSIX syntax, and is confusing to ksh users where the use of the
keyword changes the scoping rules for functions. Stick to the
POSIX form through iotests.
Done mechanically with:
sed -i 's/^function //' $(git ls-files tests/qemu-iotests)

Running
git grep '\$here' tests/qemu-iotests
has 0 hits, which means we are setting a variable that has
no use. It appears that commit e8f8624d removed the last

the 'here=...' lines as dead code.
sed -i '/^here=/d' $(git grep -l '^here=' tests/qemu-iotests)

The previous commit removed the last usage of ${tmp} inside the tests
themselves; the only remaining users are sourced by check. So we can now
drop this variable from the tests.

This patch removes support for the cow file format.
Normally we do not break backwards compatibility but in this case there
is no impact and it is the most logical option. Extraordinary claims
require extraordinary evidence so I will show why removing the cow block
driver is the right thing to do.
The cow file format is the disk image format for Usermode Linux, a way
of running a Linux system in userspace. The performance of UML was
never great and it was hacky, but it enjoyed some popularity before
hardware virtualization support became mainstream.
QEMU's block/cow.c is supposed to read this image file format.
Unfortunately the file format was underspecified:
1. Earlier Linux versions used the MAXPATHLEN constant for the backing
filename field. The value of MAXPATHLEN can change, so Linux
switched to a 4096 literal but QEMU has a 1024 literal.
2. Padding was not used on the header struct (both in the Linux kernel
and in QEMU) so the struct layout varied across architectures. In
particular, i386 and x86_64 were different due to int64_t alignment
differences. Linux now uses __attribute__((packed)), QEMU does not.
Therefore:
1. QEMU cow images do not conform to the Linux cow image file format.
2. cow images cannot be shared between different host architectures.
This means QEMU cow images are useless and QEMU has not had bug reports
from users actually hitting these issues.
Let's get rid of this thing, it serves no purpose and no one will be
affected.
