The idea is simple - backup is "written-once" data. It is written block
by block and it is large enough. It would be nice to save storage
space and compress it.
The patch adds a flag to the qmp/hmp drive-backup command which enables
block compression. Compression should be implemented in the format driver
to enable this feature.
There are some limitations of the format driver to allow compressed writes.
We can write data only once. Though for backup this is perfectly fine.
These limitations are maintained by the driver and the error will be
reported if we are doing something wrong.

For bdrv_pwrite_compressed() it looks like most of the code creating
coroutine is duplicated in bdrv_prwv_co(). So we can just add a flag
(BDRV_REQ_WRITE_COMPRESSED) and use bdrv_prwv_co() as a generic one.
In the end we get coroutine oriented function for write compressed by using
bdrv_co_pwritev/blk_co_pwritev with BDRV_REQ_WRITE_COMPRESSED flag.

block: ignore flush requests when storage is clean
has introduced a regression.
There is a problem that it is still possible for 2 requests to execute
in non sequential fashion and sometimes this results in a deadlock
when bdrv_drain_one/all are called for BDS with such stalled requests.
1. Current flushed_gen and flush_started_gen is 1.
2. Request 1 enters bdrv_co_flush to with write_gen 1 (i.e. the same
as flushed_gen). It gets past flushed_gen != flush_started_gen and
sets flush_started_gen to 1 (again, the same it was before).
3. Request 1 yields somewhere before exiting bdrv_co_flush
4. Request 2 enters bdrv_co_flush with write_gen 2. It gets past
flushed_gen != flush_started_gen and sets flush_started_gen to 2.
5. Request 2 runs to completion and sets flushed_gen to 2
6. Request 1 is resumed, runs to completion and sets flushed_gen to 1.
However flush_started_gen is now 2.
From here on out flushed_gen is always != to flush_started_gen and all
further requests will wait on flush_queue. This change replaces
flush_started_gen with an explicitly tracked active flush request.

Dell Equallogic iSCSI SANs have a very unusual advertised geometry:
$ iscsi-inq -e 1 -c $((0xb0)) iscsi://XXX/0
wsnz:0
maximum compare and write length:1
optimal transfer length granularity:0
maximum transfer length:0
optimal transfer length:0
maximum prefetch xdread xdwrite transfer length:0
maximum unmap lba count:30720
maximum unmap block descriptor count:2
optimal unmap granularity:30720
ugavalid:1
unmap granularity alignment:0
maximum write same length:30720
which says that both the maximum and the optimal discard size
is 15M. It is not immediately apparent if the device allows
discard requests not aligned to the optimal size, nor if it
allows discards at a finer granularity than the optimal size.
I tried to find details in the SCSI Commands Reference Manual
Rev. A on what valid values of maximum and optimal sizes are
permitted, but while that document mentions a "Block Limits
VPD Page", I couldn't actually find documentation of that page
or what values it would have, or if a SCSI device has an
advertisement of its minimal unmap granularity. So it is not
obvious to me whether the Dell Equallogic device is compliance
with the SCSI specification.
Fortunately, it is easy enough to support non-power-of-2 sizing,
even if it means we are less efficient than truly possible when
targetting that device (for example, it means that we refuse to
unmap anything that is not a multiple of 15M and aligned to a
15M boundary, even if the device truly does support a smaller
granularity where unmapping actually works).

Some guests (win2008 server for example) do a lot of unnecessary
flushing when underlying media has not changed. This adds additional
overhead on host when calling fsync/fdatasync.
This change introduces a write generation scheme in BlockDriverState.
Current write generation is checked against last flushed generation to
avoid unnessesary flushes.
The problem with excessive flushing was found by a performance test
which does parallel directory tree creation (from 2 processes).
Results improved from 0.424 loops/sec to 0.432 loops/sec.
Each loop creates 10^3 directories with 10 files in each.
This affected some blkdebug testcases that were expecting error logs from
failure-injected flushes which are now skipped entirely
(tests 026 071 089).
This also affects the performance of block jobs and thus BLOCK_JOB_READY
events for driver-mirror and active block-commit commands now arrives
faster, before QMP send successfully returns to caller (tests 141 144).

This is the final patch for converting the common I/O path to take
a BdrvChild parameter instead of BlockDriverState.
The completion of this conversion means that all users that perform I/O
on an image need to actually hold a reference (in the form of BdrvChild,
possible as part of a BlockBackend) to that image. This also protects
against inconsistent use of BlockBackend vs. BlockDriverState functions
because direct use of a BlockDriverState isn't possible any more and
blk->root is private for block-backends.c.
In addition, we can now distinguish different users in the I/O path,
and the future op blockers work is going to add assertions based on
permissions stored in BdrvChild.

Sector-based limits are awkward to think about; in our on-going
quest to move to byte-based interfaces, convert max_discard and
discard_alignment. Rename them, using 'pdiscard' as an aid to
track which remaining discard interfaces need conversion, and so
that the compiler will help us catch the change in semantics
across any rebased code. The BlockLimits type is now completely
byte-based; and in iscsi.c, sector_limits_lun2qemu() is no
longer needed.
pdiscard_alignment is made unsigned (we use power-of-2 alignments
as bitmasks, where unsigned is easier to think about) while
leaving max_pdiscard signed (since we still have an 'int'

Currently, we are trying to move the backing BDS from the source to the
target in bdrv_replace_in_backing_chain() which is called from
mirror_exit(). However, mirror_complete() already tries to open the
target's backing chain with a call to bdrv_open_backing_file().
First, we should only set the target's backing BDS once. Second, the
mirroring block job has a better idea of what to set it to than the
generic code in bdrv_replace_in_backing_chain() (in fact, the latter's
conditions on when to move the backing BDS from source to target are not
really correct).
Therefore, remove that code from bdrv_replace_in_backing_chain() and
leave it to mirror_complete().
Depending on what kind of mirroring is performed, we furthermore want to
use different strategies to open the target's backing chain:
- If blockdev-mirror is used, we can assume the user made sure that the
target already has the correct backing chain. In particular, we should
not try to open a backing file if the target does not have any yet.
- If drive-mirror with mode=absolute-paths is used, we can and should
reuse the already existing chain of nodes that the source BDS is in.
In case of sync=full, no backing BDS is required; with sync=top, we
just link the source's backing BDS to the target, and with sync=none,
we use the source BDS as the target's backing BDS.
We should not try to open these backing files anew because this would
lead to two BDSs existing per physical file in the backing chain, and
we would like to avoid such concurrent access.
- If drive-mirror with mode=existing is used, we have to use the
information provided in the physical image file which means opening
the target's backing chain completely anew, just as it has been done
already.
If the target's backing chain shares images with the source, this may
lead to multiple BDSs per physical image file. But since we cannot
reliably ascertain this case, there is nothing we can do about it.

Another step towards removing sector-based interfaces: convert
the maximum write and minimum alignment values from sectors to
bytes. Rename the variables to let the compiler check that all
users are converted to the new semantics.
The maximum remains an int as long as BDRV_REQUEST_MAX_SECTORS
is constrained by INT_MAX (this means that we can't even
support a 2G write_zeroes, but just under it) - changing
operation lengths to unsigned or to 64-bits is a much bigger
audit, and debatable if we even want to do it (since at the
core, a 32-bit platform will still have ssize_t as its
underlying limit on write()).
Meanwhile, alignment is changed to 'uint32_t', since it makes no
sense to have an alignment larger than the maximum write, and
less painful to use an unsigned type with well-defined behavior
in bit operations than to have to worry about what happens if
a driver mistakenly supplies a negative alignment.
Add an assert that no one was trying to use sectors to get a
write zeroes larger than 2G, and therefore that a later conversion
to bytes won't be impacted by keeping the limit at 32 bits.

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).

Pre-patch, .supported_write_flags lives at the driver level, which
means we are blindly declaring that all block devices using a
given driver will either equally support FUA, or that we need a
fallback at the block layer. But there are drivers where FUA
support is a per-block decision: the NBD block driver is dependent
on the remote server advertising NBD_FLAG_SEND_FUA (and has
fallback code to duplicate the flush that the block layer would do
if NBD had not set .supported_write_flags); and the iscsi block
driver is dependent on the mode sense bits advertised by the
underlying device (and is currently silently ignoring FUA requests
if the underlying device does not support FUA).
The fix is to make supported flags as a per-BDS option, set during
.bdrv_open(). This patch moves the variable and fixes NBD and iscsi
to set it only conditionally; later patches will then further
simplify the NBD driver to quit duplicating work done at the block
layer, as well as tackle the fact that SCSI does not support FUA
semantics on WRITESAME(10/16) but only on WRITE(10/16).

There are no block drivers left that implement the old .bdrv_read/write
interface, so it can be removed now. This gets us rid of the
corresponding emulation functions, too.

Many parts of the block layer are already byte granularity. The block
driver interface, however, was still missing an interface that allows
making use of this. This patch introduces a new BlockDriver interface,
which is based on coroutines, vectored, has flags and uses a byte
granularity. This is now the preferred interface for new drivers.

Extract the handling of io_plug "depth" from linux-aio.c and let the
main bdrv_drain loop do nothing but wait on I/O.
Like the two newly introduced functions, bdrv_io_plug and bdrv_io_unplug
now operate on all children. The visit order is now symmetrical between
plug and unplug, making it possible for formats to implement plug/unplug.
