b66ff2c298 iotests: Specify explicit backing format where sensible
There are many existing qcow2 images that specify a backing file but
no format.  This has been the source of CVEs in the past, but has
become more prominent of a problem now that libvirt has switched to
-blockdev.  With older -drive, at least the probing was always done by
qemu (so the only risk of a changed format between successive boots of
a guest was if qemu was upgraded and probed differently).  But with
newer -blockdev, libvirt must specify a format; if libvirt guesses raw
where the image was formatted, this results in data corruption visible
to the guest; conversely, if libvirt guesses qcow2 where qemu was
using raw, this can result in potential security holes, so modern
libvirt instead refuses to use images without explicit backing format.

The change in libvirt to reject images without explicit backing format
has pointed out that a number of tools have been far too reliant on
probing in the past.  It's time to set a better example in our own
iotests of properly setting this parameter.

iotest calls to create, rebase, and convert are all impacted to some
degree.  It's a bit annoying that we are inconsistent on command line
- while all of those accept -o backing_file=...,backing_fmt=..., the
shortcuts are different: create and rebase have -b and -F, while
convert has -B but no -F.  (amend has no shortcuts, but the previous
patch just deprecated the use of amend to change backing chains).

bc5ee6da71 qcow2: Deprecate use of qemu-img amend to change backing file
The use of 'qemu-img amend' to change qcow2 backing files is not
tested very well.  In particular, our implementation has a bug where
if a new backing file is provided without a format, then the prior
format is blindly reused, even if this results in data corruption, but
this is not caught by iotests.

There are also situations where amending other options needs access to
the original backing file (for example, on a downgrade to a v2 image,
knowing whether a v3 zero cluster must be allocated or may be left
unallocated depends on knowing whether the backing file already reads
as zero), but the command line does not have a nice way to tell us
both the backing file to use for opening the image as well as the
backing file to install after the operation is complete.

Even if we do allow changing the backing file, it is redundant with
the existing ability to change backing files via 'qemu-img rebase -u'.
It is time to deprecate this support (leaving the existing behavior
intact, even if it is buggy), and at a point in the future, require
the use of only 'qemu-img rebase' for adjusting backing chain
relations, saving 'qemu-img amend' for changes unrelated to the
backing chain.

ffa244c84a file-posix: Mitigate file fragmentation with extent size hints
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.

Without an extent size hint:

    $ ./qemu-img create -f raw -o extent_size_hint=0 ~/tmp/test.raw 10G
    Formatting '/home/kwolf/tmp/test.raw', fmt=raw size=10737418240 extent_size_hint=0

572ad9783f qcow2: introduce compression type feature
The patch adds some preparation parts for incompatible compression type
feature to qcow2 allowing the use different compression methods for
image clusters (de)compressing.

It is implied that the compression type is set on the image creation and
can be changed only later by image conversion, thus compression type
defines the only compression algorithm used for the image, and thus,
for all image clusters.

The goal of the feature is to add support of other compression methods
to qcow2. For example, ZSTD which is more effective on compression than ZLIB.

The default compression is ZLIB. Images created with ZLIB compression type
are backward compatible with older qemu versions.

Adding of the compression type breaks a number of tests because now the
compression type is reported on image creation and there are some changes
in the qcow2 header in size and offsets.

The tests are fixed in the following ways:
    * filter out compression_type for many tests
    * fix header size, feature table size and backing file offset
      affected tests: 031, 036, 061, 080
      header_size +=8: 1 byte compression type
                       7 bytes padding
      feature_table += 48: incompatible feature compression type
      backing_file_offset += 56 (8 + 48 -> header_change + feature_table_change)
    * add "compression type" for test output matching when it isn't filtered
      affected tests: 049, 060, 061, 065, 082, 085, 144, 182, 185, 198, 206,
                      242, 255, 274, 280

de38b5005e qemu-img: Saner printing of large file sizes
Disk sizes close to INT64_MAX cause overflow, for some pretty
ridiculous output:

  $ ./nbdkit -U - memory size=$((2**63 - 512)) --run 'qemu-img info $nbd'
  image: nbd+unix://?socket=/tmp/nbdkitHSAzNz/socket
  file format: raw
  virtual size: -8388607T (9223372036854775296 bytes)
  disk size: unavailable

But there's no reason to have two separate implementations of integer
to human-readable abbreviation, where one has overflow and stops at
'T', while the other avoids overflow and goes all the way to 'E'. With
this patch, the output now claims 8EiB instead of -8388607T, which
really is the correct rounding of largest file size supported by qemu
(we could go 511 bytes larger if we used byte-accurate sizing instead
of rounding up to the next sector boundary, but that wouldn't change
the human-readable result).

Quite a few iotests need updates to expected output to match.

638987127d option: Make option help nicer to read
This adds some whitespace into the option help (including indentation)
and puts angle brackets around the type names.  Furthermore, the list
name is no longer printed as part of every line, but only once in
advance, and only if the caller did not print a caption already.

This patch also restores the description alignment we had before commit
9cbef9d68e, just at 24 instead of 16 characters like we used to.
This increase is because now we have the type and two spaces of
indentation before the description, and with a usual type name length of
three chracters, this sums up to eight additional characters -- which
means that we now need 24 characters to get the same amount of padding
for most options.  Also, 24 is a third of 80, which makes it kind of a
round number in terminal terms.

Finally, this patch amends the reference output of iotest 082 to match
the changes (and thus makes it pass again).

5164135142 qemu-img: Add print_amend_option_help()
The more generic print_block_option_help() function is not really
suitable for qemu-img amend, for a couple of reasons:
(1) We do not need to append the protocol-level options, as amendment
    happens only on one node and does not descend downwards to its
    children.
(2) print_block_option_help() says those options are "supported".  For
    option amendment, we do not really know that.  So this new function
    explicitly says that those options are the creation options, and not
    all of them may be supported.
(3) If the driver does not support option amendment, we should not print
    anything (except for an error message that amendment is not
    supported).

It may not always be possible, as in the existing case when a filesize

This is accomplished by shifting around the conditionals in
bdrv_img_create, such that a backing file is always opened unless we
provide BDRV_O_NO_BACKING. qemu-img is adjusted to pass this new flag
when -u is provided to create.

4652b8f3e1 qcow2: add support for LUKS encryption format
This adds support for using LUKS as an encryption format
with the qcow2 file, using the new encrypt.format parameter
to request "luks" format. e.g.

  # qemu-img create --object secret,data=123456,id=sec0 \
       -f qcow2 -o encrypt.format=luks,encrypt.key-secret=sec0 \
       test.qcow2 10G

The legacy "encryption=on" parameter still results in
creation of the old qcow2 AES format (and is equivalent
to the new 'encryption-format=aes'). e.g. the following are
equivalent:

  # qemu-img create --object secret,data=123456,id=sec0 \
       -f qcow2 -o encryption=on,encrypt.key-secret=sec0 \
       test.qcow2 10G

 # qemu-img create --object secret,data=123456,id=sec0 \
       -f qcow2 -o encryption-format=aes,encrypt.key-secret=sec0 \
       test.qcow2 10G

With the LUKS format it is necessary to store the LUKS
partition header and key material in the QCow2 file. This
data can be many MB in size, so cannot go into the QCow2
header region directly. Thus the spec defines a FDE
(Full Disk Encryption) header extension that specifies
the offset of a set of clusters to hold the FDE headers,
as well as the length of that region. The LUKS header is
thus stored in these extra allocated clusters before the
main image payload.

Aside from all the cryptographic differences implied by
use of the LUKS format, there is one further key difference
between the use of legacy AES and LUKS encryption in qcow2.
For LUKS, the initialiazation vectors are generated using
the host physical sector as the input, rather than the
guest virtual sector. This guarantees unique initialization
vectors for all sectors when qcow2 internal snapshots are
used, thus giving stronger protection against watermarking
attacks.

0cb8d47ba9 block: deprecate "encryption=on" in favor of "encrypt.format=aes"
Historically the qcow & qcow2 image formats supported a property
"encryption=on" to enable their built-in AES encryption. We'll
soon be supporting LUKS for qcow2, so need a more general purpose
way to enable encryption, with a choice of formats.

This introduces an "encrypt.format" option, which will later be
joined by a number of other "encrypt.XXX" options. The use of
a "encrypt." prefix instead of "encrypt-" is done to facilitate
mapping to a nested QAPI schema at later date.

e.g. the preferred syntax is now

to be created, and respect that option's value.

This breaks some test outputs, fix them.

0709c5a153 qcow2: Add refcount_bits to format-specific info
Add the bit width of every refcount entry to the format-specific
information.

In contrast to lazy_refcounts and the corrupt flag, this should be
always emitted, even for compat=0.10 although it does not support any
refcount width other than 16 bits. This is because if a boolean is
optional, one normally assumes it to be false when omitted; but if an
integer is not specified, it is rather difficult to guess its value.

This new field breaks some test outputs, fix them.

d11032315a qemu-iotests: 082: Filter the real disk size
The real on-disk size of an image depends on things like the host
filesystem. _img_info already filters it out, use the function in 082.

9009b1963c qapi: Add corrupt field to ImageInfoSpecificQCow2
Just like lazy-refcounts, this field will be present iff the qcow2
compat level is 1.1 (or probably any future revision).

As expected, this breaks some tests due to the new field present in
qemu-img info output; so fix their output accordingly.

1b53eab270 iotests: Use _img_info
qemu-img info should only be used directly if the format-specific
information or the name of the format is relevant (some tests explicitly
test format-specific information; test 082 uses qcow2-specific settings
to test the qemu-img interface); otherwise, tests should always use
_img_info instead.

Test 082 was touched only partially. It does test the qemu-img
interface; however, its invocations of qemu-img info are not real tests
but rather verifications, so if format-specific information is not
important for the test, there is no reason not to use _img_info. In
contrast to directly invoking qemu-img info, "qcow2" is replaced by
"IMGFMT"; but as "qcow2" is only mentioned once in test 082 (in
_supported_fmt), I consider this an improvement.

4ab1559085 qemu-img create: add 'nocow' option
Add 'nocow' option so that users could have a chance to set NOCOW flag to
newly created files. It's useful on btrfs file system to enhance performance.

Btrfs has low performance when hosting VM images, even more when the guest
in those VM are also using btrfs as file system. One way to mitigate this bad
performance is to turn off COW attributes on VM files. Generally, there are
two ways to turn off NOCOW on btrfs: a) by mounting fs with nodatacow, then
all newly created files will be NOCOW. b) per file. Add the NOCOW file
attribute. It could only be done to empty or new files.

This patch tries the second way, according to the option, it could add NOCOW
per file.

For most block drivers, since the create file step is in raw-posix.c, so we
can do setting NOCOW flag ioctl in raw-posix.c only.

But there are some exceptions, like block/vpc.c and block/vdi.c, they are
creating file by calling qemu_open directly. For them, do the same setting
NOCOW flag ioctl work in them separately.

[Fixed up 082.out due to the new 'nocow' creation option
