Only one direction is necessary in several scenarios:
- a read-only disk
- operations on a device are considered as *write* only. For example,
encrypt/decrypt/sign/verify operations on a cryptodev use a single
*write* timer(read timer callback is defined, but never invoked).
Allow a single direction in throttle, this reduces memory, and uplayer
does not need a dummy callback any more.

ThrottleGroup is converted to an object. This will allow the future
throttle block filter drive easy creation and configuration of throttle
groups in QMP and cli.
A new QAPI struct, ThrottleLimits, is introduced to provide a shared
struct for all throttle configuration needs in QMP.
ThrottleGroups can be created via CLI as
-object throttle-group,id=foo,x-iops-total=100,x-..
where x-* are individual limit properties. Since we can't add non-scalar
properties in -object this interface must be used instead. However,
setting these properties must be disabled after initialization because
certain combinations of limits are forbidden and thus configuration
changes should be done in one transaction. The individual properties
will go away when support for non-scalar values in CLI is implemented
and thus are marked as experimental.
ThrottleGroup also has a `limits` property that uses the ThrottleLimits
struct. It can be used to create ThrottleGroups or set the
configuration in existing groups as follows:
{ "execute": "object-add",
"arguments": {
"qom-type": "throttle-group",
"id": "foo",
"props" : {
"limits": {
"iops-total": 100
}
}
}
}
{ "execute" : "qom-set",
"arguments" : {
"path" : "foo",
"property" : "limits",
"value" : {
"iops-total" : 99
}
}
}
This also means a group's configuration can be fetched with qom-get.

LeakyBucket.burst_length is defined as an unsigned integer but the
code never checks for overflows and it only makes sure that the value
is not 0.
In practice this means that the user can set something like
throttling.iops-total-max-length=4294967300 despite being larger than
UINT_MAX and the final value after casting to unsigned int will be 4.
This patch changes the data type to uint64_t. This does not increase
the storage size of LeakyBucket, and allows us to assign the value
directly from qemu_opt_get_number() or BlockIOThrottle and then do the
checks directly in throttle_is_valid().
The value of burst_length does not have a specific upper limit,
but since the bucket size is defined by max * burst_length we have
to prevent overflows. Instead of going for UINT64_MAX or something
similar this patch reuses THROTTLE_VALUE_MAX, which allows I/O bursts
of 1 GiB/s for 10 days in a row.

Both the throttling limits set with the throttling.iops-* and
throttling.bps-* options and their QMP equivalents defined in the
BlockIOThrottle struct are integer values.
Those limits are also reported in the BlockDeviceInfo struct and they
are integers there as well.
Therefore there's no reason to store them internally as double and do
the conversion everytime we're setting or querying them, so this patch
uses uint64_t for those types. Let's also use an unsigned type because
we don't allow negative values anyway.
LeakyBucket.level and LeakyBucket.burst_level do however remain double
because their value changes depending on the fraction of time elapsed
since the previous I/O operation.

The way the throttling algorithm works is that requests start being
throttled once the bucket level exceeds the burst limit. When we get
there the bucket leaks at the level set by the user (bkt->avg), and
that leak rate is what prevents guest I/O from exceeding the desired
limit.
If we don't allow bursts (i.e. bkt->max == 0) then we can start
throttling requests immediately. The problem with keeping the
threshold at 0 is that it only allows one request at a time, and as
soon as there's a bit of I/O from the guest every other request will
be throttled and performance will suffer considerably. That can even
make the guest unable to reach the throttle limit if that limit is
high enough, and that happens regardless of the block scheduler used
by the guest.
Increasing that threshold gives flexibility to the guest, allowing it
to perform short bursts of I/O before being throttled. Increasing the
threshold too much does not make a difference in the long run (because
it's the leak rate what defines the actual throughput) but it does
allow the guest to perform longer initial bursts and exceed the
throttle limit for a short while.
A burst value of bkt->avg / 10 allows the guest to perform 100ms'
worth of I/O at the target rate without being throttled.

throttle_config() cancels the timers of the calling BlockBackend. This
doesn't make sense because other BlockBackends in the group remain
untouched. There's no need to cancel the timers in the one specific
BlockBackend so let's not do that. Throttled requests will run as
scheduled and future requests will follow the new configuration. This
also allows a throttle group's configuration to be changed even when it
has no members.

Throttling has a weird property that throttle_get_config() does not
always return the same throttling settings that were given with
throttle_config(). In other words, the set and get functions aren't
symmetric.
If .max is 0 then the throttling code assigns a default value of .avg /
10 in throttle_config(). This is an implementation detail of the
throttling algorithm. When throttle_get_config() is called the .max
value returned should still be 0.
Users are exposed to this quirk via "info block" or "query-block"
monitor commands. This has caused confusion because it looks like a bug
when an unexpected value is reported.
This patch hides the .max value adjustment in throttle_get_config() and
updates test-throttle.c appropriately.

Commit 57cb38b included qapi/error.h into qemu/osdep.h to get the
Error typedef. Since then, we've moved to include qemu/osdep.h
everywhere. Its file comment explains: "To avoid getting into
possible circular include dependencies, this file should not include
any other QEMU headers, with the exceptions of config-host.h,
compiler.h, os-posix.h and os-win32.h, all of which are doing a
similar job to this file and are under similar constraints."
qapi/error.h doesn't do a similar job, and it doesn't adhere to
similar constraints: it includes qapi-types.h. That's in excess of
100KiB of crap most .c files don't actually need.
Add the typedef to qemu/typedefs.h, and include that instead of
qapi/error.h. Include qapi/error.h in .c files that need it and don't
get it now. Include qapi-types.h in qom/object.h for uint16List.
Update scripts/clean-includes accordingly. Update it further to match
reality: replace config.h by config-target.h, add sysemu/os-posix.h,
sysemu/os-win32.h. Update the list of includes in the qemu/osdep.h
comment quoted above similarly.
This reduces the number of objects depending on qapi/error.h from "all
of them" to less than a third. Unfortunately, the number depending on
qapi-types.h shrinks only a little. More work is needed for that one.

extract_common_blockdev_options() uses qemu_opt_get_number() to parse
the bps/iops numbers to uint64_t, then converts to double and stores in
ThrottleConfig. The actual parsing is done by strtoull() in

We used to reject negative numbers since 7d81c1413c, but this regressed

Block I/O throttling uses timers and currently always adds them to the

This patch adds throttle_detach/attach_aio_context() interfaces so the
throttling timers and uses them to move timers to the new AioContext.
Note that bdrv_set_aio_context() already drains all requests so we're
