We are gradually moving away from sector-based interfaces, towards
byte-based. Add new sector-based aio callbacks for read and write,
to match the fact that bdrv_aio_pdiscard is already byte-based.
Ideally, drivers should be converted to use coroutine callbacks
rather than aio; but that is not quite as trivial (and if we were
to do that conversion, the null-aio driver would disappear), so for
the short term, converting the signature but keeping things with
aio is easier. However, we CAN declare that a driver that uses
the byte-based aio interfaces now defaults to byte-based
operations, and must explicitly provide a refresh_limits override
to stick with larger alignments (making the alignment issues more
obvious directly in the drivers touched in the next few patches).
Once all drivers are converted, the sector-based aio callbacks will
be removed; in the meantime, a FIXME comment is added due to a
slight inefficiency that will be touched up as part of that later
cleanup.
Simplify some instances of 'bs->drv' into 'drv' while touching this,
since the local variable already exists to reduce typing.

qemu_aio_coroutine_enter() is (indirectly) called recursively when
processing co_queue_wakeup. This can lead to stack exhaustion.
This patch rewrites co_queue_wakeup in an iterative fashion (instead of
recursive) with bounded memory usage to prevent stack exhaustion.
qemu_co_queue_run_restart() is inlined into qemu_aio_coroutine_enter()
and the qemu_coroutine_enter() call is turned into a loop to avoid
recursion.
There is one change that is worth mentioning: Previously, when
coroutine A queued coroutine B, qemu_co_queue_run_restart() entered
coroutine B from coroutine A. If A was terminating then it would still
stay alive until B yielded. After this patch B is entered by A's parent
so that a A can be deleted immediately if it is terminating.
It is safe to make this change since B could never interact with A if it
was terminating anyway.

BlockDriverState has the BDRV_POLL_WHILE() macro to wait on event loop
activity while a condition evaluates to true. This is used to implement
synchronous operations where it acts as a condvar between the IOThread
running the operation and the main loop waiting for the operation. It
can also be called from the thread that owns the AioContext and in that
case it's just a nested event loop.
BlockBackend needs this behavior but doesn't always have a
BlockDriverState it can use. This patch extracts BDRV_POLL_WHILE() into
the AioWait abstraction, which can be used with AioContext and isn't
tied to BlockDriverState anymore.
This feature could be built directly into AioContext but then all users
would kick the event loop even if they signal different conditions.
Imagine an AioContext with many BlockDriverStates, each time a request
completes any waiter would wake up and re-check their condition. It's
nicer to keep a separate AioWait object for each condition instead.
Please see "block/aio-wait.h" for details on the API.
The name AIO_WAIT_WHILE() avoids the confusion between AIO_POLL_WHILE()
and AioContext polling.

The normal bdrv_co_pwritev() use is either

- BDRV_REQ_ZERO_WRITE set and iovector == NULL
while
- the flag clear and iovector == NULL is an assertion failure
in bdrv_co_do_zero_pwritev()
- the flag set and iovector provided is in fact allowed
(the flag prevails and zeroes are written)
However the alignment logic does not support the latter case so the padding
areas get overwritten with zeroes.
Currently, general functions like bdrv_rw_co() do provide iovector
regardless of flags. So, keep it supported and use bdrv_co_do_zero_pwritev()

We are gradually moving away from sector-based interfaces, towards
byte-based. Now that the block layer exposes byte-based allocation,
it's time to tackle the drivers. Add a new callback that operates
on as small as byte boundaries. Subsequent patches will then update
individual drivers, then finally remove .bdrv_co_get_block_status().
The new code also passes through the 'want_zero' hint, which will
allow subsequent patches to further optimize callers that only care
about how much of the image is allocated (want_zero is false),
rather than full details about runs of zeroes and which offsets the
allocation actually maps to (want_zero is true). As part of this
effort, fix another part of the documentation: the claim in commit
4c41cb4 that BDRV_BLOCK_ALLOCATED is short for 'DATA || ZERO' is a
lie at the block layer (see commit e88ae2264), even though it is
how the bit is computed from the driver layer. After all, there
are intentionally cases where we return ZERO but not ALLOCATED at
the block layer, when we know that a read sees zero because the
backing file is too short. Note that the driver interface is thus
slightly different than the public interface with regards to which
bits will be set, and what guarantees are provided on input.
We also add an assertion that any driver using the new callback will
make progress (the only time pnum will be 0 is if the block layer
already handled an out-of-bounds request, or if there is an error);
the old driver interface did not provide this guarantee, which
could lead to some inf-loops in drastic corner-case failures.

This is in preparation for subtree drains, i.e. drained sections that
affect not only a single node, but recursively all child nodes, too.
Calling the parent callbacks for drain is pointless when we just came
from that parent node recursively and leads to multiple increases of
bs->quiesce_counter in a single drain call. Don't do it.
In order for this to work correctly, the parent callback must be called
for every bdrv_drain_begin/end() call, not only for the outermost one:
If we have a node N with two parents A and B, recursive draining of A
should cause the quiesce_counter of B to increase because its child N is
drained independently of B. If now B is recursively drained, too, A must
increase its quiesce_counter because N is drained independently of A
only now, even if N is going from quiesce_counter 1 to 2.

One reason for this is that bdrv_drain_recurse() can be called multiple
times by bdrv_drain_all_begin(), but the callbacks may only be called

The other reason is that we intend to go to a model where we call all

We currently do not guard everywhere against a NULL bs->drv where we
should be doing so. Most of the places fixed here just do not care
about that case at all.
Some care implicitly, e.g. through a prior function call to
bdrv_getlength() which would always fail for an ejected BDS. Add an
assert there to make it more obvious.
Other places seem to care, but do so insufficiently: Freeing clusters in
a qcow2 image is an error-free operation, but it may leave the image in
an unusable state anyway. Giving qcow2_free_clusters() an error code is
not really viable, it is much easier to note that bs->drv may be NULL
even after a successful driver call. This concerns bdrv_co_flush(), and
the way the check is added to bdrv_co_pdiscard() (in every iteration
instead of only once).
Finally, some places employ at least an assert(bs->drv); somewhere, that
may be reasonable (such as in the reopen code), but in
bdrv_has_zero_init(), it is definitely not. Returning 0 there in case
of an ejected BDS saves us much headache instead.

Any device that has request_alignment greater than 512 should be
unable to report status at a finer granularity; it may also be
simpler for such devices to be guaranteed that the block layer
has rounded things out to the granularity boundary (the way the
block layer already rounds all other I/O out). Besides, getting
the code correct for super-sector alignment also benefits us
for the fact that our public interface now has byte granularity,
even though none of our drivers have byte-level callbacks.
Add an assertion in blkdebug that proves that the block layer
never requests status of unaligned sections, similar to what it
does on other requests (while still keeping the generic helper
in place for when future patches add a throttle driver). Note
that iotest 177 already covers this (it would fail if you use
just the blkdebug.c hunk without the io.c changes). Meanwhile,
we can drop assertions in callers that no longer have to pass
in sector-aligned addresses.
There is a mid-function scope added for 'count' and 'longret',
for a couple of reasons: first, an upcoming patch will add an
'if' statement that checks whether a driver has an old- or
new-style callback, and can conveniently use the same scope for
less indentation churn at that time. Second, since we are
trying to get rid of sector-based computations, wrapping things
in a scope makes it easier to group and see what will be
deleted in a final cleanup patch once all drivers have been
converted to the new-style callback.

an offset mapping that might not be sector aligned, split the mapping
out of the return value and into a pass-by-reference parameter. For
now, the io.c layer still assert()s that all uses are sector-aligned,
but that can be relaxed when a later patch implements byte-based

For the most part this patch is just the addition of scaling at the

particularly bdrv_block_status(), gets a lot simpler because it no
longer has to mess with sectors. Likewise, mirror code no longer
computes s->granularity >> BDRV_SECTOR_BITS, and can therefore drop

alignment (never mind that we don't really have a driver that
reports sub-sector alignments, so it's not really possible to test
the effect of sub-sector mirroring). Fix a neighboring assertion to

Not all callers care about which BDS owns the mapping for a given
range of the file, or where the zeroes lie within that mapping. In
particular, bdrv_is_allocated() cares more about finding the
largest run of allocated data from the guest perspective, whether
or not that data is consecutive from the host perspective, and
whether or not the data reads as zero. Therefore, doing subsequent
refinements such as checking how much of the format-layer
allocation also satisfies BDRV_BLOCK_ZERO at the protocol layer is
wasted work - in the best case, it just costs extra CPU cycles
during a single bdrv_is_allocated(), but in the worst case, it
results in a smaller *pnum, and forces callers to iterate through
more status probes when visiting the entire file for even more
extra CPU cycles.
This patch only optimizes the block layer (no behavior change when
want_zero is true, but skip unnecessary effort when it is false).
Then when subsequent patches tweak the driver callback to be
byte-based, we can also pass this hint through to the driver.

The only caller that does not care about pnum is bdrv_is_allocated,
as invoked by vvfat; we can likewise add assertions that the rest
of the stack does not have to worry about a NULL pnum.
Furthermore, this will also set the stage for a future cleanup: when
a caller does not care about which BDS owns an offset, it would be
nice to allow the driver to optimize things to not have to return
BDRV_BLOCK_OFFSET_VALID in the first place. In the case of fragmented
allocation (for example, it's fairly easy to create a qcow2 image
where consecutive guest addresses are not at consecutive host
addresses), the current contract requires bdrv_get_block_status()
to clamp *pnum to the limit where host addresses are no longer
consecutive, but allowing a NULL file means that *pnum could be
set to the full length of known-allocated data.

Improve our braindead copy-on-read implementation. Pre-patch,
we have multiple issues:
- we create a bounce buffer and perform a write for the entire
request, even if the active image already has 99% of the
clusters occupied, and really only needs to copy-on-read the
remaining 1% of the clusters
- our bounce buffer was as large as the read request, and can
needlessly exhaust our memory by using double the memory of
the request size (the original request plus our bounce buffer),
rather than a capped maximum overhead beyond the original
- if a driver has a max_transfer limit, we are bypassing the
normal code in bdrv_aligned_preadv() that fragments to that
limit, and instead attempt to read the entire buffer from the
driver in one go, which some drivers may assert on
- a client can request a large request of nearly 2G such that
rounding the request out to cluster boundaries results in a
byte count larger than 2G. While this cannot exceed 32 bits,
it DOES have some follow-on problems:
-- the call to bdrv_driver_pread() can assert for exceeding
BDRV_REQUEST_MAX_BYTES, if the driver is old and lacks
.bdrv_co_preadv
-- if the buffer is all zeroes, the subsequent call to
bdrv_co_do_pwrite_zeroes is a no-op due to a negative size,
which means we did not actually copy on read
Fix all of these issues by breaking up the action into a loop,
where each iteration is capped to sane limits. Also, querying
the allocation status allows us to optimize: when data is
already present in the active layer, we don't need to bounce.
Note that the code has a telling comment that copy-on-read
should probably be a filter driver rather than a bolt-on hack
in io.c; but that remains a task for another day.

ensure that they never make a 0-length request, and then assert
that fact, it was just as easy to fix things to always report
success (as long as the callers are careful to not go into an
infinite loop). However, we had inconsistent behavior on whether
the status is reported as allocated or defers to the backing
layer, depending on what callbacks the driver implements, and
possibly wasting quite a few CPU cycles to get to that answer.
Consistently reporting unallocated up front doesn't really hurt
anything, and makes it easier both for callers (0-length requests
now have well-defined behavior) and for drivers (drivers don't
have to deal with 0-length requests).

We are gradually moving away from sector-based interfaces, towards
byte-based. In the common case, allocation is unlikely to ever use
values that are not naturally sector-aligned, but it is possible
that byte-based values will let us be more precise about allocation
at the end of an unaligned file that can do byte-based access.
Changing the signature of the function to use int64_t *pnum ensures
that the compiler enforces that all callers are updated. For now,
the io.c layer still assert()s that all callers are sector-aligned,
but that can be relaxed when a later patch implements byte-based
block status. Therefore, for the most part this patch is just the
addition of scaling at the callers followed by inverse scaling at
bdrv_is_allocated(). But some code, particularly stream_run(),
gets a lot simpler because it no longer has to mess with sectors.
Leave comments where we can further simplify by switching to
byte-based iterations, once later patches eliminate the need for
sector-aligned operations.

bdrv_is_allocated_above() was relying on intermediate->total_sectors,
which is a field that can have stale contents depending on the value
of intermediate->has_variable_length. An audit shows that we are safe
(we were first calling through bdrv_co_get_block_status() which in
turn calls bdrv_nb_sectors() and therefore just refreshed the current
length), but it's nicer to favor our accessor functions to avoid having
to repeat such an audit, even if it means refresh_total_sectors() is
called more frequently.

We document that *file is valid if the return is not an error and
includes BDRV_BLOCK_OFFSET_VALID, but forgot to obey this contract
when a driver (such as blkdebug) lacks a callback. Messed up in
commit 67a0fd2 (v2.6), when we added the file parameter.
Enhance qemu-iotest 177 to cover this, using a sequence that would
print garbage or even SEGV, because it was dererefencing through
uninitialized memory. [The resulting test output shows that we
have less-than-ideal block status from the blkdebug driver, but
that's a separate fix coming up soon.]
Setting *file on all paths that return BDRV_BLOCK_OFFSET_VALID is
enough to fix the crash, but we can go one step further: always
setting *file, even on error, means that a broken caller that
blindly dereferences file without checking for error is now more
likely to get a reliable SEGV instead of randomly acting on garbage,
making it easier to diagnose such buggy callers. Adding an
assertion that file is set where expected doesn't hurt either.

When we have a BDS with unallocated clusters, but asking the status
of its underlying bs->file or backing layer encounters an end-of-file
condition, we know that the rest of the unallocated area will read as
zeroes. However, pre-patch, this required two separate calls to
bdrv_get_block_status(), as the first call stops at the point where
the underlying file ends. Thanks to BDRV_BLOCK_EOF, we can now widen
the results of the primary status if the secondary status already
includes BDRV_BLOCK_ZERO.
In turn, this fixes a TODO mentioned in iotest 154, where we can now
see that all sectors in a partial cluster at the end of a file read
as zero when coupling the shorter backing file's status along with our
knowledge that the remaining sectors came from an unallocated cluster.
Also, note that the loop in bdrv_co_get_block_status_above() had an
inefficent exit: in cases where the active layer sets BDRV_BLOCK_ZERO
but does NOT set BDRV_BLOCK_ALLOCATED (namely, where we know we read
zeroes merely because our unallocated clusters lie beyond the backing
file's shorter length), we still ended up probing the backing layer
even though we already had a good answer.

Discard is advisory, so rounding the requests to alignment
boundaries is never semantically wrong from the data that
the guest sees. But at least the Dell Equallogic iSCSI SANs
has an interesting property that its advertised discard
alignment is 15M, yet documents that discarding a sequence
of 1M slices will eventually result in the 15M page being
marked as discarded, and it is possible to observe which
pages have been discarded.
Between commits 9f1963b and b8d0a980, we converted the block
layer to a byte-based interface that ultimately ignores any
unaligned head or tail based on the driver's advertised
discard granularity, which means that qemu 2.7 refuses to
pass any discard request smaller than 15M down to the Dell
Equallogic hardware. This is a slight regression in behavior
compared to earlier qemu, where a guest executing discards
in power-of-2 chunks used to be able to get every page
discarded, but is now left with various pages still allocated
because the guest requests did not align with the hardware's
15M pages.
Since the SCSI specification says nothing about a minimum
discard granularity, and only documents the preferred
alignment, it is best if the block layer gives the driver
every bit of information about discard requests, rather than
rounding it to alignment boundaries early.
Rework the block layer discard algorithm to mirror the write
zero algorithm: always peel off any unaligned head or tail
and manage that in isolation, then do the bulk of the request
on an aligned boundary. The fallback when the driver returns
-ENOTSUP for an unaligned request is to silently ignore that
portion of the discard request; but for devices that can pass
the partial request all the way down to hardware, this can
result in the hardware coalescing requests and discarding
aligned pages after all.

Commit 443668ca rewrote the write_zeroes logic to guarantee that
an unaligned request never crosses a cluster boundary. But
in the rewrite, the new code assumed that at most one iteration
would be needed to get to an alignment boundary.
However, it is easy to trigger an assertion failure: the Linux
kernel limits loopback devices to advertise a max_transfer of
only 64k. Any operation that requires falling back to writes
rather than more efficient zeroing must obey max_transfer during
that fallback, which means an unaligned head may require multiple
iterations of the write fallbacks before reaching the aligned
boundaries, when layering a format with clusters larger than 64k
atop the protocol of file access to a loopback device.
Test case:
$ qemu-img create -f qcow2 -o cluster_size=1M file 10M
$ losetup /dev/loop2 /path/to/file
$ qemu-io -f qcow2 /dev/loop2
qemu-io> w 7m 1k
qemu-io> w -z 8003584 2093056
In fairness to Denis (as the original listed author of the culprit
commit), the faulty logic for at most one iteration is probably all
my fault in reworking his idea. But the solution is to restore what
was in place prior to that commit: when dealing with an unaligned
head or tail, iterate as many times as necessary while fragmenting
the operation at max_transfer boundaries.

Commit 3ff2f67a changed bdrv_co_flush() so that no flush is issues if
the image hasn't been dirtied since the last flush. This is not quite
correct: The condition should be that the image hasn't been dirtied
since the last _successful_ flush. This patch changes the logic
accordingly.
Without this fix, subsequent bdrv_co_flush() calls would return success
without actually doing anything even though the image is still dirty.
The difference is visible in some blkdebug test cases where error
messages incorrectly disappeared after commit 3ff2f67a.

bdrv_drain_all() doesn't allow the caller to do anything after all
pending requests have been completed but before block jobs are
resumed.
This patch splits bdrv_drain_all() into _begin() and _end() for that
purpose. It also adds aio_{disable,enable}_external() calls to disable
external clients in the meantime.
An important restriction of this split is that no new block jobs or
BlockDriverStates can be created between the bdrv_drain_all_begin()
and bdrv_drain_all_end() calls. This is not a concern now because
we'll only be using this in bdrv_reopen_multiple(), but it must be
dealt with if we ever have other uses cases in the future.

aio_poll is not thread safe; for example bdrv_drain can hang if
the last in-flight I/O operation is completed in the I/O thread after
the main thread has checked bs->in_flight.
The bug remains latent as long as all of it is called within
aio_context_acquire/aio_context_release, but this will change soon.
To fix this, if bdrv_drain is called from outside the I/O thread,
signal the main AioContext through a dummy bottom half. The event
loop then only runs in the I/O thread.

We want the BDS event loop to run exclusively in the iothread that
owns the BDS's AioContext. This macro will provide the synchronization
between the two event loops; for now it just wraps the common idiom
of a while loop around aio_poll.

bdrv_requests_pending is checking children to also wait until internal
requests (such as metadata writes) have completed. However, checking
children is in general overkill. Children requests can be of two kinds:
- requests caused by an operation on bs, e.g. a bdrv_aio_write to bs
causing a write to bs->file->bs. In this case, the parent's in_flight
count will always be incremented by at least one for every request in
the child.
- asynchronous metadata writes or flushes. Such writes can be started
even if bs's in_flight count is zero, but not after the .bdrv_drain
callback has been invoked.
This patch therefore changes bdrv_drain to finish I/O in the parent
(after which the parent's in_flight will be locked to zero), call
bdrv_drain (after which the parent will not generate I/O on the child
anymore), and then wait for internal I/O in the children to complete.

Unlike tracked_requests, this field also counts throttled requests,
and remains non-zero if an AIO operation needs a BH to be "really"
completed.
With this change, it is no longer necessary to have a dummy
BdrvTrackedRequest for requests that are never serialising, and
it is no longer necessary to poll the AioContext once after
bdrv_requests_pending(bs) returns false.
