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).

Rather than asserting that nbdflags is within range, just give
it the correct type to begin with :) nbdflags corresponds to
the per-export portion of NBD Protocol "transmission flags", which
is 16 bits in response to NBD_OPT_EXPORT_NAME and NBD_OPT_GO.
Furthermore, upstream NBD has never passed the global flags to
the kernel via ioctl(NBD_SET_FLAGS) (the ioctl was first
introduced in NBD 2.9.22; then a latent bug in NBD 3.1 actually
tried to OR the global flags with the transmission flags, with
the disaster that the addition of NBD_FLAG_NO_ZEROES in 3.9
caused all earlier NBD 3.x clients to treat every export as
read-only; NBD 3.10 and later intentionally clip things to 16
bits to pass only transmission flags). Qemu should follow suit,
since the current two global flags (NBD_FLAG_FIXED_NEWSTYLE
and NBD_FLAG_NO_ZEROES) have no impact on the kernel's behavior
during transmission.

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).

When a new job is created, the job ID is taken from the device name of
the BDS. This patch adds a new 'job_id' parameter to let the caller
provide one instead.
This patch also verifies that the ID is always unique and well-formed.
This causes problems in a couple of places where no ID is being set,
because the BDS does not have a device name.
In the case of test_block_job_start() (from test-blockjob-txn.c) we
can simply use this new 'job_id' parameter to set the missing ID.
In the case of img_commit() (from qemu-img.c) we still don't have the
API to make commit_active_start() set the job ID, so we solve it by
setting a default value. We'll get rid of this as soon as we extend

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'
interface); this is comparable to what commit cf081fc did for
write zeroes limits. We may later want to make everything an

The NBD layer was breaking up request at a limit of 2040 sectors
(just under 1M) to cater to old qemu-nbd. But the server limit
was raised to 32M in commit 2d8214885 to match the kernel, more
than three years ago; and the upstream NBD Protocol is proposing
documentation that without any explicit communication to state
otherwise, a client should be able to safely assume that a 32M
transaction will work. It is time to rely on the larger sizing,
and any downstream distro that cares about maximum
interoperability to older qemu-nbd servers can just tweak the

Block jobs are coroutines that usually perform I/O but sometimes also
sleep or yield. Currently only sleeping or yielded block jobs can be
paused. This means jobs that do not sleep or yield (using
block_job_yield()) are unaffected by block_job_pause().
Add block_job_pause_point() so that block jobs can mark quiescent points
that are suitable for pausing. This solves the problem that it can take
a block job a long time to pause if it is performing a long series of
I/O operations.
Transitioning to paused state involves a .pause()/.resume() callback.
These callbacks are used to ensure that I/O and event loop activity has
ceased while the job is at a pause point.
Note that this patch introduces a stricter pause state than previously.
The job->busy flag was incorrectly documented as a quiescent state
without I/O pending. This is violated by any job that has I/O pending
across sleep or block_job_yield(), like the mirror block job.
[Add missing block_job_should_pause() check to avoid deadlock after
job->driver->pause() in block_job_pause_point().

as there are no external callers.
