Fill in the BlockDriver structure with the raw_*() functions that have
been added to "block/raw_bsd.c", in the order the fields are defined in
"include/block/block_int.h".
I needed more explanation / naming examples for registering the driver
than what Paolo gave me, so I copied / adapted from "block/qcow2.c". The

It has 16 KB grain tables (L2) and a variable-size grain directory (L1).
In addition, the grain size is always 512, but that is not a problem
because it is included in the header.
The format of the extents is documented in the VMDK spec. The format
of the descriptor file is not documented precisely, but it can be
found at http://kb.vmware.com/kb/10026353 (Recreating a missing virtual

for vmstate accesses (which are stored beyond the end of regular image

We introduce the bs->zero_beyond_eof to allow qcow2_load_vmstate() to
disable ->zero_beyond_eof temporarily in addition to enable ->growable.

If a block driver has no file descriptors to monitor but there are still
active requests, it can return 1 from .io_flush(). This is used to spin
during synchronous I/O.
Stop relying on .io_flush() and instead check
QLIST_EMPTY(&bs->tracked_requests) to decide whether there are active
requests.
This is the first step in removing .io_flush() so that event loops no
longer need to have the concept of synchronous I/O. Eventually we may
be able to kill synchronous I/O completely by running everything in a
coroutine, but that is future work.
Note this patch moves bs->throttled_reqs initialization to bdrv_new() so
that bdrv_requests_pending(bs) can safely access it. In practice bs is
g_malloc0() so the memory is already zeroed but it's safer to initialize
the queue properly.
We also need to fix up block/stream.c:close_unused_images() to prevent
traversing a dangling pointer while it rearranges the backing file
chain. This is necessary since the new bdrv_drain_all() traverses the
backing file chain.

This patch adds sync-modes to the drive-backup interface and
implements the FULL, NONE and TOP modes of synchronization.
FULL performs as before copying the entire contents of the drive
while preserving the point-in-time using CoW.
NONE only copies new writes to the target drive.
TOP copies changes to the topmost drive image and preserves the
point-in-time using CoW.
For sync mode TOP are creating a new target image using the same backing
file as the original disk image. Then any new data that has been laid
on top of it since creation is copied in the main backup_run() loop.
There is an extra check in the 'TOP' case so that we don't bother to copy
all the data of the backing file as it already exists in the target.
This is where the bdrv_co_is_allocated() is used to determine if the
data exists in the topmost layer or below.
Also any new data being written is intercepted via the write_notifier
hook which ends up calling backup_do_cow() to copy old data out before
it gets overwritten.
For mode 'NONE' we create the new target image and only copy in the
original data from the disk image starting from the time the call was
made. This preserves the point in time data by only copying the parts
that are *going to change* to the target image. This way we can
reconstruct the final image by checking to see if the given block exists
in the new target image first, and if it does not, you can get it from
the original image. This is basically an optimization allowing you to
do point-in-time snapshots with low overhead vs the 'FULL' version.
Since there is no old data to copy out the loop in backup_run() for the
NONE case just calls qemu_coroutine_yield() which only wakes up after
an event (usually cancel in this case). The rest is handled by the
before_write notifier which again calls backup_do_cow() to write out
the old data so it can be preserved.
