The `detect-zeroes=unmap` option may issue unaligned
`FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE` requests, raw block devices can (and will) return
`EINVAL`, qemu should then write the zeroes to the blockdev instead of
issuing an `IO_ERROR`.
The problem can be reprodced like this:
$ qemu-io -c 'write -P 0 42 1234' --image-opts driver=host_device,filename=/dev/loop0,detect-zeroes=unmap
write failed: Invalid argument

For Linux block devices, being able to open the device read-write
doesn't necessarily mean that the device is actually writable (one
example is a read-only LV, as you get with lvchange -pr <device>). We
have check_hdev_writable() to check this condition and fail opening the
image read-write if it's not actually writable.
However, this check doesn't take auto-read-only into account, but
results in a hard failure instead of downgrading to read-only where
possible.
Fix this and do the writable check not based on BDRV_O_RDWR, but only
when this actually results in opening the file read-write. A second
check is inserted in raw_reconfigure_getfd() to have the same check when
dynamic auto-read-only upgrades an image file from read-only to
read-write.

Since commit a6b257a08e ('file-posix: Handle undetectable alignment'),
we assume that if we open a file with O_DIRECT and alignment probing
returns 1, we just couldn't find out the real alignment requirement
because some filesystems make the requirement only for allocated blocks.
In this case, a safe default of 4k is used.
This is too strict for NFS, which does actually allow byte-aligned
requests even with O_DIRECT. Because we can't distinguish both cases
with generic code, let's just look at the file system magic and disable
s->needs_alignment for NFS. This way, O_DIRECT can still be used on NFS
for images that are not aligned to 4k.

Especially when O_DIRECT is used with image files so that the page cache
indirection can't cause a merge of allocating requests, the file will
fragment on the file system layer, with a potentially very small
fragment size (this depends on the requests the guest sent).
On Linux, fragmentation can be reduced by setting an extent size hint
when creating the file (at least on XFS, it can't be set any more after
the first extent has been allocated), basically giving raw files a
"cluster size" for allocation.
This adds a create option to set the extent size hint, and changes the
default from not setting a hint to setting it to 1 MB. The main reason
why qcow2 defaults to smaller cluster sizes is that COW becomes more
expensive, which is not an issue with raw files, so we can choose a
larger size. The tradeoff here is only potentially wasted disk space.
For qcow2 (or other image formats) over file-posix, the advantage should
even be greater because they grow sequentially without leaving holes, so
there won't be wasted space. Setting even larger extent size hints for
such images may make sense. This can be done with the new option, but
let's keep the default conservative for now.
The effect is very visible with a test that intentionally creates a
badly fragmented file with qemu-img bench (the time difference while
creating the file is already remarkable) and then looks at the number of
extents and the time a simple "qemu-img map" takes.

When all we do with an Error we receive into a local variable is
propagating to somewhere else, we can just as well receive it there
right away. The previous commit did that with a Coccinelle script I
consider fairly trustworthy. This commit uses the same script with
the matching of return taken out, i.e. we convert
if (!foo(..., &err)) {
...
error_propagate(errp, err);
...
}
to
if (!foo(..., errp)) {

This is unsound: @err could still be read between afterwards. I don't
know how to express "no read of @err without an intervening write" in
Coccinelle. Instead, I manually double-checked for uses of @err.
Suboptimal line breaks tweaked manually. qdev_realize() simplified

Not exactly elegant, I'm afraid.
The "when != lbl:" is necessary to avoid transforming
if (fun(args, &err)) {
goto out
}
...
out:
error_propagate(errp, err);
even though other paths to label out still need the error_propagate().
For an actual example, see sclp_realize().
Without the "when strict", Coccinelle transforms vfio_msix_setup(),
incorrectly. I don't know what exactly "when strict" does, only that
it helps here.
The match of return is narrower than what I want, but I can't figure
out how to express "return where the operand doesn't use @err". For
an example where it's too narrow, see vfio_intx_enable().
Silently fails to convert hw/arm/armsse.c, because Coccinelle gets
confused by ARMSSE being used both as typedef and function-like macro
there. Converted manually.

bdrv_has_zero_init(); this condition was violated for parallels, qcow,

The Error ** argument must be NULL, &error_abort, &error_fatal, or a
pointer to a variable containing NULL. Passing an argument of the
latter kind twice without clearing it in between is wrong: if the
first call sets an error, it no longer points to NULL for the second
call.
check_cache_dropped() calls error_setg() in a loop. It fails to break
the loop in one instance. If a subsequent iteration error_setg()s
again, it trips error_setv()'s assertion.

We have two drivers (iscsi and file-posix) that (in some cases) return
success from their .bdrv_co_truncate() implementation if the block
device is larger than the requested offset, but cannot be shrunk. Some
callers do not want that behavior, so this patch adds a new parameter
that they can use to turn off that behavior.
This patch just adds the parameter and lets the block/io.c and
block/block-backend.c functions pass it around. All other callers
always pass false and none of the implementations evaluate it, so that
this patch does not change existing behavior. Future patches take care
of that.

This will help to identify how many of the user-issued discard operations
(accounted on a device level) have actually suceeded down on the host file
(even though the numbers will not be exactly the same if non-raw format
driver is used (e.g. qcow2 sending metadata discards)).
Note that these numbers will not include discards triggered by
write-zeroes + MAY_UNMAP calls.

If QEMU_AIO_NO_FALLBACK is given, we always return failure and don't
even try to use the BLKZEROOUT ioctl. In this failure case, we shouldn't
disable has_write_zeroes because we didn't learn anything about the
ioctl. The next request might not set QEMU_AIO_NO_FALLBACK and we can
still use the ioctl then.

This patch removes xfs_write_zeroes() and xfs_discard(). Both functions
have been added just before the same feature was present through
fallocate():
- fallocate() has supported PUNCH_HOLE for XFS since Linux 2.6.38 (March
2011); xfs_discard() was added in December 2010.
- fallocate() has supported ZERO_RANGE for XFS since Linux 3.15 (June
2014); xfs_write_zeroes() was added in November 2013.
Nowadays, all systems that qemu runs on should support both fallocate()
features (RHEL 7's kernel does).
xfsctl() is still useful for getting the request alignment for O_DIRECT,
so this patch does not remove our dependency on it completely.
Note that xfs_write_zeroes() had a bug: It calls ftruncate() when the
file is shorter than the specified range (because ZERO_RANGE does not
increase the file length). ftruncate() may yield and then discard data
that parallel write requests have written past the EOF in the meantime.
Dropping the function altogether fixes the bug.

When creating an image with preallocation "off" or "falloc", the first
block of the image is typically not allocated. When using Gluster
storage backed by XFS filesystem, reading this block using direct I/O
succeeds regardless of request length, fooling alignment detection.
In this case we fallback to a safe value (4096) instead of the optimal
value (512), which may lead to unneeded data copying when aligning
requests. Allocating the first block avoids the fallback.
Since we allocate the first block even with preallocation=off, we no
longer create images with zero disk size:
$ ./qemu-img create -f raw test.raw 1g
Formatting 'test.raw', fmt=raw size=1073741824
$ ls -lhs test.raw
4.0K -rw-r--r--. 1 nsoffer nsoffer 1.0G Aug 16 23:48 test.raw
And converting the image requires additional cluster:
$ ./qemu-img measure -f raw -O qcow2 test.raw
required size: 458752
fully allocated size: 1074135040
When using format like vmdk with multiple files per image, we allocate
one block per file:
$ ./qemu-img create -f vmdk -o subformat=twoGbMaxExtentFlat test.vmdk 4g
Formatting 'test.vmdk', fmt=vmdk size=4294967296 compat6=off hwversion=undefined subformat=twoGbMaxExtentFlat
$ ls -lhs test*.vmdk
4.0K -rw-r--r--. 1 nsoffer nsoffer 2.0G Aug 27 03:23 test-f001.vmdk
4.0K -rw-r--r--. 1 nsoffer nsoffer 2.0G Aug 27 03:23 test-f002.vmdk
4.0K -rw-r--r--. 1 nsoffer nsoffer 353 Aug 27 03:23 test.vmdk
I did quick performance test for copying disks with qemu-img convert to
new raw target image to Gluster storage with sector size of 512 bytes:
for i in $(seq 10); do
rm -f dst.raw
sleep 10
time ./qemu-img convert -f raw -O raw -t none -T none src.raw dst.raw
done

Opening a block device on NetBSD has an additional step compared to other OSes,
corresponding to raw_normalize_devicepath. The error message in that function
is slightly different from that in raw_open_common and this was causing spurious
failures in qemu-iotests. However, in general it is not important to know what
exact step was failing, for example in the qemu-iotests case the error message
contains the fairly unequivocal "No such file or directory" text from strerror.
We can thus fix the failures by standardizing on a single error message for
both raw_open_common and raw_normalize_devicepath; in fact, we can even
use error_setg_file_open to make sure the error message is the same as in
the rest of QEMU.

In some cases buf_align or request_alignment cannot be detected:
1. With Gluster, buf_align cannot be detected since the actual I/O is
done on Gluster server, and qemu buffer alignment does not matter.
Since we don't have alignment requirement, buf_align=1 is the best
value.
2. With local XFS filesystem, buf_align cannot be detected if reading
from unallocated area. In this we must align the buffer, but we don't
know what is the correct size. Using the wrong alignment results in
I/O error.
3. With Gluster backed by XFS, request_alignment cannot be detected if
reading from unallocated area. In this case we need to use the
correct alignment, and failing to do so results in I/O errors.
4. With NFS, the server does not use direct I/O, so both buf_align cannot
be detected. In this case we don't need any alignment so we can use
buf_align=1 and request_alignment=1.
These cases seems to work when storage sector size is 512 bytes, because
the current code starts checking align=512. If the check succeeds
because alignment cannot be detected we use 512. But this does not work
for storage with 4k sector size.
To determine if we can detect the alignment, we probe first with
align=1. If probing succeeds, maybe there are no alignment requirement
(cases 1, 4) or we are probing unallocated area (cases 2, 3). Since we
don't have any way to tell, we treat this as undetectable alignment. If
probing with align=1 fails with EINVAL, but probing with one of the
expected alignments succeeds, we know that we found a working alignment.
Practically the alignment requirements are the same for buffer
alignment, buffer length, and offset in file. So in case we cannot
detect buf_align, we can use request alignment. If we cannot detect
request alignment, we can fallback to a safe value. To use this logic,
we probe first request alignment instead of buf_align.
Here is a table showing the behaviour with current code (the value in
parenthesis is the optimal value).
Case Sector buf_align (opt) request_alignment (opt) result

1 512 512 (1) 512 (512) OK

Regular kernel block devices (/dev/sda*, /dev/nvme*, etc) don't have
max segment size/max segment count hardware requirements exposed
to the userspace, but rather the kernel block layer
takes care to split the incoming requests that
violate these requirements.
Allowing the kernel to do the splitting allows qemu to avoid
various overheads that arise otherwise from this.
This is especially visible in nbd server,
exposing as a raw file, a mostly empty qcow2 image over the net.
In this case most of the reads by the remote user
won't even hit the underlying kernel block device,
and therefore most of the overhead will be in the
nbd traffic which increases significantly with lower max transfer size.
In addition to that even for local block device
access the peformance improves a bit due to less
traffic between qemu and the kernel when large
transfer sizes are used (e.g for image conversion)

Currently, qemu crashes whenever someone queries the block status of an
unaligned image tail of an O_DIRECT image:
$ echo > foo
$ qemu-img map --image-opts driver=file,filename=foo,cache.direct=on
Offset Length Mapped to File
qemu-img: block/io.c:2093: bdrv_co_block_status: Assertion `*pnum &&
QEMU_IS_ALIGNED(*pnum, align) && align > offset - aligned_offset'
failed.
This is because bdrv_co_block_status() checks that the result returned
by the driver's implementation is aligned to the request_alignment, but
file-posix can fail to do so, which is actually mentioned in a comment
there: "[...] possibly including a partial sector at EOF".
Fix this by rounding up those partial sectors.
There are two possible alternative fixes:
(1) We could refuse to open unaligned image files with O_DIRECT
altogether. That sounds reasonable until you realize that qcow2
does necessarily not fill up its metadata clusters, and that nobody
runs qemu-img create with O_DIRECT. Therefore, unpreallocated qcow2
files usually have an unaligned image tail.
(2) bdrv_co_block_status() could ignore unaligned tails. It actually
throws away everything past the EOF already, so that sounds
reasonable.
Unfortunately, the block layer knows file lengths only with a
granularity of BDRV_SECTOR_SIZE, so bdrv_co_block_status() usually
would have to guess whether its file length information is inexact
or whether the driver is broken.
Fixing what raw_co_block_status() returns is the safest thing to do.
There seems to be no other block driver that sets request_alignment and
does not make sure that it always returns aligned values.

XFS_IOC_ZERO_RANGE does not increase the file length:
$ touch foo
$ xfs_io -c 'zero 0 65536' foo
$ stat -c "size=%s, blocks=%b" foo
size=0, blocks=128
We do want writes beyond the EOF to automatically increase the file
length, however. This is evidenced by the fact that iotest 061 is
broken on XFS since qcow2's check implementation checks for blocks
beyond the EOF.

We know that the kernel implements a slow fallback code path for
BLKZEROOUT, so if BDRV_REQ_NO_FALLBACK is given, we shouldn't call it.
The other operations we call in the context of .bdrv_co_pwrite_zeroes
should usually be quick, so no modification should be needed for them.
If we ever notice that there are additional problematic cases, we can
still make these conditional as well.

Commit dd577a26ff ("block/file-posix:
implement bdrv_co_invalidate_cache() on Linux") introduced page cache
invalidation so that cache.direct=off live migration is safe on Linux.
The invalidation takes a significant amount of time when the file is
large and present in the page cache. Normally this is not the case for
cross-host live migration but it can happen when migrating between QEMU
processes on the same host.
On same-host migration we don't need to invalidate pages for correctness
anyway, so an option to skip page cache invalidation is useful. I
investigated optimizing invalidation and detecting same-host migration,
but both are hard to achieve so a user-visible option will suffice.
As a bonus this option means that the cache invalidation feature will
now be detectable by libvirt via QMP schema introspection.

Until now, with auto-read-only=on we tried to open the file read-write
first and if that failed, read-only was tried. This is actually not good
enough for libvirt, which gives QEMU SELinux permissions for read-write
only as soon as it actually intends to write to the image. So we need to
be able to switch between read-only and read-write at runtime.
This patch makes auto-read-only dynamic, i.e. the file is opened
read-only as long as no user of the node has requested write
permissions, but it is automatically reopened read-write as soon as the
first writer is attached. Conversely, if the last writer goes away, the
file is reopened read-only again.
bs->read_only is no longer set for auto-read-only=on files even if the
file descriptor is opened read-only because it will be transparently
upgraded as soon as a writer is attached. This changes the output of
qemu-iotests 232.
