The plan is to add new accounting metrics (latency, invalid requests, failed
requests, queue depth) and block.c is overpopulated so it will be better to work
in a separate module.
Moreover the long term plan is to have statistics in each of the BDS of the graph
for metrology purpose; this means that the device model statistics must move from
the topmost BDS to the device model.
So we need to decouple the statistic code from BlockDriverState.
This is another argument for the extraction of the code in a separate module.

If a long-running operation on a BDS wants to always remain in the same

Some block devices may not have a filename in their BDS; and for some,
there may not even be a normal filename at all. To work around this, add
a function which tries to construct a valid filename for the
BDS.filename field.
If a filename exists or a block driver is able to reconstruct a valid
filename (which is placed in BDS.exact_filename), this can directly be
used.
If no filename can be constructed, we can still construct an options
QDict which is then converted to a JSON object and prefixed with the
"json:" pseudo protocol prefix. The QDict is placed in
BDS.full_open_options.
For most block drivers, this process can be done automatically; those
that need special handling may define a .bdrv_refresh_filename() method
to fill BDS.exact_filename and BDS.full_open_options themselves.

On some image chains, QEMU may not always be able to resolve the
filenames properly, when updating the backing file of an image
after a block commit.
For instance, certain relative pathnames may fail, or drives may
have been specified originally by file descriptor (e.g. /dev/fd/???),
or a relative protocol pathname may have been used.
In these instances, QEMU may lack the information to be able to make
the correct choice, but the user or management layer most likely does
have that knowledge.
With this extension to the block-commit api, the user is able to change
the backing file of the overlay image as part of the block-commit
operation.
This allows the change to be 'safe', in the sense that if the attempt
to write the overlay image metadata fails, then the block-commit
operation returns failure, without disrupting the guest.
If the commit top is the active layer, then specifying the backing
file string will be treated as an error (there is no overlay image
to modify in that case).
If a backing file string is not specified in the command, the backing
file string to use is determined in the same manner as it was
previously.

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.

There is one exception in block_job_create, where

BlockDriverState.op_blockers is an array of lists with BLOCK_OP_TYPE_MAX
elements. Each list is a list of blockers of an operation type
(BlockOpType), that marks this BDS as currently blocked for a certain
type of operation with reason errors stored in the list. The rule of
usage is:
* BDS user who wants to take an operation should check if there's any
blocker of the type with bdrv_op_is_blocked().
* BDS user who wants to block certain types of operation, should call
bdrv_op_block (or bdrv_op_block_all to block all types of operations,
which is similar to the existing bdrv_set_in_use()).
* A blocker is only referenced by op_blockers, so the lifecycle is
managed by caller, and shouldn't be lost until unblock, so typically
a caller does these:
- Allocate a blocker with error_setg or similar, call bdrv_op_block()
to block some operations.
- Hold the blocker, do his job.
- Unblock operations that it blocked, with the same reason pointer
passed to bdrv_op_unblock().
- Release the blocker with error_free().

bs->buffer_alignment is set by the device emulation and contains the

the right alignment of buffers to be used for the host.
The new BlockLimits field opt_mem_alignment tells the qemu block layer
the optimal alignment to be used so that no bounce buffer must be used
in the driver.
This patch may change the buffer alignment from 4k to 512 for all
callers that used qemu_blockalign() with the top-level image format
BlockDriverState. The value was never propagated to other levels in the
tree, so in particular raw-posix never required anything else than 512.
While on disks with 4k sectors direct I/O requires a 4k alignment,
memory may still be okay when aligned to 512 byte boundaries. This is
what must have happened in practice, because otherwise this would
already have failed earlier. Therefore I don't expect regressions even
with this intermediate state. Later, raw-posix can implement the hook

The block layer generally keeps the size of an image cached in
bs->total_sectors so that it doesn't have to perform expensive
operations to get the size whenever it needs it.
This doesn't work however when using a backend that can change its size
without qemu being aware of it, i.e. passthrough of removable media like
CD-ROMs or floppy disks. For this reason, the caching is disabled when a
removable device is used.
It is obvious that checking whether the _guest_ device has removable
media isn't the right thing to do when we want to know whether the size
of the host backend can change. To make things worse, non-top-level
BlockDriverStates never have any device attached, which makes qemu
assume they are removable, so drv->bdrv_getlength() is always called on
the protocol layer. In the case of raw-posix, this causes unnecessary
lseek() system calls, which turned out to be rather expensive.
This patch completely changes the logic and disables bs->total_sectors
caching only for certain block driver types, for which a size change is
expected: host_cdrom and host_floppy on POSIX, host_device on win32; also
the raw format in case it sits on top of one of these protocols, but in
the common case the nested bdrv_getlength() call on the protocol driver
will use the cache again and avoid an expensive drv->bdrv_getlength()
call.

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.

backup_start() creates a block job that copies a point-in-time snapshot
of a block device to a target block device.
We call backup_do_cow() for each write during backup. That function
reads the original data from the block device before it gets
overwritten. The data is then written to the target device.
Currently backup cluster size is hardcoded to 65536 bytes.
[I made a number of changes to Dietmar's original patch and folded them
in to make code review easy. Here is the full list:
* Drop BackupDumpFunc interface in favor of a target block device
* Detect zero clusters with buffer_is_zero() and use bdrv_co_write_zeroes()
* Use 0 delay instead of 1us, like other block jobs
* Unify creation/start functions into backup_start()
* Simplify cleanup, free bitmap in backup_run() instead of cb
* function
* Use HBitmap to avoid duplicating bitmap code
* Use bdrv_getlength() instead of accessing ->total_sectors
* directly
* Delete the backup.h header file, it is no longer necessary
* Move ./backup.c to block/backup.c
* Remove #ifdefed out code
* Coding style and whitespace cleanups
* Use bdrv_add_before_write_notifier() instead of blockjob-specific hooks
* Keep our own in-flight CowRequest list instead of using block.c
tracked requests. This means a little code duplication but is much
simpler than trying to share the tracked requests list and use the
backup block size.
* Add on_source_error and on_target_error error handling.
* Use trace events instead of DPRINTF()

The bdrv_add_before_write_notifier() function installs a callback that
is invoked before a write request is processed. This will be used to
implement copy-on-write point-in-time snapshots where we need to copy
out old data before overwriting it.
Note that BdrvTrackedRequest is moved to block_int.h since it is passed
to .notify() functions.

This patch is a pure code move patch, except following modification:
1 get_human_readable_size() is changed to static function.
2 dump_human_image_info() is renamed to bdrv_image_info_dump().
3 in qmp_query_block() and qmp_query_blockstats, use bdrv_next(bs)
instead of direct traverse of global array 'bdrv_states'.
4 collect_snapshots() and collect_image_info() are renamed, unused parameter
*fmt in collect_image_info() is removed.
5 code style fix.
To avoid conflict and tip better, macro in header file is BLOCK_QAPI_H
instead of QAPI_H. Now block.h and snapshot.h are at the same level in
include path, block_int.h and qapi.h will both include them.

It is not necessary to adjust the slice time at runtime. We already
extend the current slice in order to carry over accounting into the next
slice. Changing the actual slice time value introduces oscillations.
The guest may experience large changes in throughput or IOPS from one
moment to the next when slice times are adjusted.

I/O throttling relies on bdrv_acct_done() which is called when a request
completes. This leaves a blind spot since we only charge for completed
requests, not submitted requests.
For example, if there is 1 operation remaining in this time slice the
guest could submit 3 operations and they will all be submitted
successfully since they don't actually get accounted for until they
complete.
Originally we probably thought this is okay since the requests will be
accounted when the time slice is extended. In practice it causes
fluctuations since the guest can exceed its I/O limit and it will be
punished for this later on.
Account for I/O upon submission so that I/O limits are enforced
properly.

After this patch, using -drive with an empty file name continues to open
the file if driver-specific options are used. If no driver-specific
options are specified, the semantics stay as it was: It defines a drive
without an inserted medium.
In order to achieve this, bdrv_open() must be made safe to work with a
NULL filename parameter. The assumption that is made is that only block
drivers which implement bdrv_parse_filename() support using driver
specific options and could therefore work without a filename. These
drivers must make sure to cope with NULL in their implementation of
.bdrv_open() (this is only NBD for now). For all other drivers, the
block layer code will make sure to error out before calling into their
code - they can't possibly work without a filename.
Now an NBD connection can be opened like this:
qemu-system-x86_64 -drive file.driver=nbd,file.port=1234,file.host=::1

If a driver needs structured data and not just a string, it can provide
a .bdrv_parse_filename callback now that parses the command line string
into separate options. Keeping this separate from .bdrv_open_filename
ensures that the preferred way of directly specifying the options always
works as well if parsing the string works.

For now bdrv_get_aio_context() is just a stub that calls
qemu_aio_get_context() since the block layer is currently tied to the
main loop AioContext.
Add the stub now so that the block layer can begin accessing its
AioContext.

Introduce a new option "adapter_type" when converting to vmdk images.
It can be one of the following: ide (default), buslogic, lsilogic
or legacyESX (according to the vmdk spec from vmware).
In case of a non-ide adapter, heads is set to 255 instead of the 16.
The latter is used for "ide".

The desired granularity may be very different depending on the kind of
operation (e.g. continuous replication vs. collapse-to-raw) and whether
the VM is expected to perform lots of I/O while mirroring is in progress.
Allow the user to customize it, while providing a sane default so that
in general there will be no extra allocated space in the target compared
to the source.
