We are generally moving to int64_t for both offset and bytes parameters
on all io paths.
Main motivation is realization of 64-bit write_zeroes operation for
fast zeroing large disk chunks, up to the whole disk.
We chose signed type, to be consistent with off_t (which is signed) and
with possibility for signed return type (where negative value means
error).
So, convert driver read handlers parameters which are already 64bit to
signed type.
While being here, convert also flags parameter to be BdrvRequestFlags.
Now let's consider all callers. Simple
git grep '\->bdrv_\(aio\|co\)_preadv\(_part\)\?'
shows that's there three callers of driver function:
bdrv_driver_preadv() in block/io.c, passes int64_t, checked by
bdrv_check_qiov_request() to be non-negative.
qcow2_load_vmstate() does bdrv_check_qiov_request().
do_perform_cow_read() has uint64_t argument. And a lot of things in
qcow2 driver are uint64_t, so converting it is big job. But we must
not work with requests that don't satisfy bdrv_check_qiov_request(),
so let's just assert it here.
Still, the functions may be called directly, not only by drv->...
Let's check:
git grep '\.bdrv_\(aio\|co\)_preadv\(_part\)\?\s*=' | \
awk '{print $4}' | sed 's/,//' | sed 's/&//' | sort | uniq | \
while read func; do git grep "$func(" | \
grep -v "$func(BlockDriverState"; done
The only one such caller:
QEMUIOVector qiov = QEMU_IOVEC_INIT_BUF(qiov, &data, 1);
...
ret = bdrv_replace_test_co_preadv(bs, 0, 1, &qiov, 0);
in tests/unit/test-bdrv-drain.c, and it's OK obviously.

Both qemu and qemu-img use writeback cache mode by default, which is
already documented in qemu(1). qemu-nbd uses writethrough cache mode by
default, and the default cache mode is not documented.
According to the qemu-nbd(8):
--cache=CACHE
The cache mode to be used with the file. See the
documentation of the emulator's -drive cache=... option for
allowed values.
qemu(1) says:
The default mode is cache=writeback.
So users have no reason to assume that qemu-nbd is using writethough
cache mode. The only hint is the painfully slow writing when using the
defaults.
Looking in git history, it seems that qemu used writethrough in the past
to support broken guests that did not flush data properly, or could not
flush due to limitations in qemu. But qemu-nbd clients can use
NBD_CMD_FLUSH to flush data, so using writethrough does not help anyone.
Change the default cache mode to writback, and document the default and
available values properly in the online help and manual.
With this change converting image via qemu-nbd is 3.5 times faster.
$ qemu-img create dst.img 50g
$ qemu-nbd -t -f raw -k /tmp/nbd.sock dst.img
Before this change:
$ hyperfine -r3 "./qemu-img convert -p -f raw -O raw -T none -W fedora34.img nbd+unix:///?socket=/tmp/nbd.sock"
Benchmark #1: ./qemu-img convert -p -f raw -O raw -T none -W fedora34.img nbd+unix:///?socket=/tmp/nbd.sock
Time (mean ± σ): 83.639 s ± 5.970 s [User: 2.733 s, System: 6.112 s]
Range (min … max): 76.749 s … 87.245 s 3 runs
After this change:
$ hyperfine -r3 "./qemu-img convert -p -f raw -O raw -T none -W fedora34.img nbd+unix:///?socket=/tmp/nbd.sock"
Benchmark #1: ./qemu-img convert -p -f raw -O raw -T none -W fedora34.img nbd+unix:///?socket=/tmp/nbd.sock
Time (mean ± σ): 23.522 s ± 0.433 s [User: 2.083 s, System: 5.475 s]
Range (min … max): 23.234 s … 24.019 s 3 runs
Users can avoid the issue by using --cache=writeback[1] but the defaults
should give good performance for the common use case.

This patch adds a test for record/replay, which boots Linux
image from the disk and interacts with the network.
The idea and code of this test is borrowed from boot_linux.py
This test includes only x86_64 platform. Other platforms and
machines will be added later after testing and improving
record/replay to completely support them.
Each test consists of the following phases:
- downloading the disk image
- recording the execution
- replaying the execution
Replay does not validates the output, but waits until QEMU
finishes the execution. This is reasonable, because
QEMU usually hangs when replay goes wrong.

Add hooks designed to log/filter incoming/outgoing messages. The primary
intent for these is to be able to support iotests which may want to log
messages with specific filters for reproducible output.
Another use is for plugging into Urwid frameworks; all messages in/out
can be automatically added to a rendering list for the purposes of a
qmp-shell like tool.
