76abe4071d block: do not abuse EMEDIUMTYPE
Returning "Wrong medium type" for an image that does not have a valid
header is a bit weird.  Improve the error by mentioning what format
was trying to open it.

2e40134bfd block: Make bdrv_file_open() static
Add the bdrv_open() option BDRV_O_PROTOCOL which results in passing the
call to bdrv_file_open(). Additionally, make bdrv_file_open() static and
therefore bdrv_open() the only way to call it.

Consequently, all existing calls to bdrv_file_open() have to be adjusted
to use bdrv_open() with the BDRV_O_PROTOCOL flag instead.

Make bdrv_open() take a pointer to a BDS pointer, similarly to
bdrv_file_open(). If a pointer to a NULL pointer is given, bdrv_open()
will create a new BDS with an empty name; if the BDS pointer is not
NULL, that existing BDS will be reused (in the same way as bdrv_open()

84d18f065f Use error_is_set() only when necessary
error_is_set(&var) is the same as var != NULL, but it takes
whole-program analysis to figure that out.  Unnecessarily hard for
optimizers, static checkers, and human readers.  Dumb it down to
obvious.

Gets rid of several dozen Coverity false positives.

Note that the obvious form is already used in many places.

16f0587e0a qcow2: remove n_start and n_end of qcow2_alloc_cluster_offset()
n_start can be actually calculated from offset. The number of
sectors to be allocated(n_end - n_start) can be passed in in
num. By removing n_start and n_end, we can save two parameters.

The side effect is there is a bug in qcow2.c:preallocate() that
passes incorrect n_start to qcow2_alloc_cluster_offset() is
fixed. The bug can be triggerred by a larger cluster size than
the default value(65536), for example:

./qemu-img create -f qcow2 \
  -o 'cluster_size=131072,preallocation=metadata' file.img 4G

ba2ab2f2ca qcow2: Flush image after creation
Opening the qcow2 image with BDRV_O_NO_FLUSH prevents any flushes during
the image creation. This means that the image has not yet been flushed
to disk when qemu-img create exits. This flush is delayed until the next
operation on the image involving opening it without BDRV_O_NO_FLUSH and
closing (or directly flushing) it. For large images and/or images with a
small cluster size and preallocated metadata, this flush may take a
significant amount of time and may occur unexpectedly.

Reopening the image without BDRV_O_NO_FLUSH right before the end of
qcow2_create2() results in hoisting the potentially costly flush into
the image creation, which is expected to take some time (whereas
successive image operations may be not).

6e13610aa4 qcow2: Unset zero_beyond_eof in save_vmstate
Saving the VM state is done using bdrv_pwrite. This function may perform
a read-modify-write, which in this case results in data being read from
beyond the end of the virtual disk. Since we are actually trying to
access an area which is not a part of the virtual disk, zero_beyond_eof
has to be set to false before performing the partial write, otherwise
the VM state may become corrupted.

eedff66f21 qcow2: Restore total_sectors value in save_vmstate
Since df2a6f29a5, bdrv_co_do_writev increases the total_sectors value of
a growable block devices on writes after the current end. This leads to
the virtual disk apparently growing in qcow2_save_vmstate, which in turn
affects the disk size captured by the internal snapshot taken directly
afterwards through e.g. the HMP savevm command. Such a "grown" snapshot
cannot be loaded after reopening the qcow2 image, since its disk size
differs from the actual virtual disk size (writing a VM state does not
actually increase the virtual disk size).

Fix this by restoring total_sectors at the end of qcow2_save_vmstate.

1ebf561c11 qcow2: Discard VM state in active L1 after creating snapshot
During savevm, the VM state is written to the active L1 of the image and
then a snapshot is taken. After that, the VM state isn't needed any more
in the active L1 and should be discarded. This is implemented by this
patch.

The impact of not discarding the VM state is that a snapshot can never
become smaller than any previous snapshot (because it would be padded
with old VM state), and more importantly that future savevm operations
cause unnecessary COWs (with associated flushes), which makes subsequent
snapshots much slower.

3ac216270a block: change default of .has_zero_init to 0
.has_zero_init defaults to 1 for all formats and protocols.

this is a dangerous default since this means that all
new added drivers need to manually overwrite it to 0 if
they do not ensure that a device is zero initialized
after bdrv_create().

if a driver needs to explicitly set this value to
1 its easier to verify the correctness in the review process.

during review of the existing drivers it turned out
that ssh and gluster had a wrong default of 1.
both protocols support host_devices as backend
which are not by default zero initialized. this
wrong assumption will lead to possible corruption
if qemu-img convert is used to write to such a backend.

vpc and vmdk also defaulted to 1 altough they support
fixed respectively flat extends. this has to be addresses
in separate patches. both formats as well as the mentioned
ssh and gluster are turned to the default of 0 with this
patch for safety.

a similar problem with the wrong default existed for
iscsi most likely because the driver developer did
oversee the default value of 1.

0b919fae31 qcow2: Batch discards
This optimises the discard operation for freed clusters by batching
discard requests (both snapshot deletion and bdrv_discard end up
updating the refcounts cluster by cluster).

Note that we don't discard asynchronously, but keep s->lock held. This
is to avoid that a freed cluster is reallocated and written to while the
discard is still in flight.
