Jeff Cody e2b8247a32 block: do not set BDS read_only if copy_on_read enabled
A few block drivers will set the BDS read_only flag from their
.bdrv_open() function.  This means the bs->read_only flag could
be set after we enable copy_on_read, as the BDRV_O_COPY_ON_READ
flag check occurs prior to the call to bdrv->bdrv_open().

This adds an error return to bdrv_set_read_only(), and an error will be
return if we try to set the BDS to read_only while copy_on_read is
enabled.

This patch also changes the behavior of vvfat.  Before, vvfat could
override the drive 'readonly' flag with its own, internal 'rw' flag.

For instance, this -drive parameter would result in a writable image:

"-drive format=vvfat,dir=/tmp/vvfat,rw,if=virtio,readonly=on"

This is not correct.  Now, attempting to use the above -drive parameter
will result in an error (i.e., 'rw' is incompatible with 'readonly=on').

Fam Zheng 91af091f92 block: Drain BH in bdrv_drained_begin
During block job completion, nothing is preventing
block_job_defer_to_main_loop_bh from being called in a nested
aio_poll(), which is a trouble, such as in this code path:

    qmp_block_commit
      commit_active_start
        bdrv_reopen
          bdrv_reopen_multiple
            bdrv_reopen_prepare
              bdrv_flush
                aio_poll
                  aio_bh_poll
                    aio_bh_call
                      block_job_defer_to_main_loop_bh
                        stream_complete
                          bdrv_reopen

block_job_defer_to_main_loop_bh is the last step of the stream job,
which should have been "paused" by the bdrv_drained_begin/end in
bdrv_reopen_multiple, but it is not done because it's in the form of a
main loop BH.

Similar to why block jobs should be paused between drained_begin and
drained_end, BHs they schedule must be excluded as well.  To achieve
this, this patch forces draining the BH in BDRV_POLL_WHILE.

As a side effect this fixes a hang in block_job_detach_aio_context
during system_reset when a block job is ready:

    #22 0x000055555577157a in main_loop
    #23 0x000055555577157a in main

The rationale is that the loop in block_job_detach_aio_context cannot
make any progress in pausing/completing the job, because bs->in_flight
is 0, so bdrv_drain doesn't process the block_job_defer_to_main_loop
BH. With this patch, it does.

Kevin Wolf d35ff5e6b3 block: Ignore guest dev permissions during incoming migration
Usually guest devices don't like other writers to the same image, so
they use blk_set_perm() to prevent this from happening. In the migration
phase before the VM is actually running, though, they don't have a
problem with writes to the image. On the other hand, storage migration
needs to be able to write to the image in this phase, so the restrictive
blk_set_perm() call of qdev devices breaks it.

This patch flags all BlockBackends with a qdev device as
blk->disable_perm during incoming migration, which means that the
requested permissions are stored in the BlockBackend, but not actually
applied to its root node yet.

Once migration has finished and the VM should be resumed, the
permissions are applied. If they cannot be applied (e.g. because the NBD
server used for block migration hasn't been shut down), resuming the VM
fails.

Kevin Wolf b2c2832c61 block: Add Error parameter to bdrv_append()
Aborting on error in bdrv_append() isn't correct. This patch fixes it
and lets the callers handle failures.

Test case 085 needs a reference output update. This is caused by the
reversed order of bdrv_set_backing_hd() and change_parent_backing_link()
in bdrv_append(): When the backing file of the new node is set, the
parent nodes are still pointing to the old top, so the backing blocker
is now initialised with the node name rather than the BlockBackend name.

Kevin Wolf db95dbba3b block: BdrvChildRole.attach/detach() callbacks
Backing files are somewhat special compared to other kinds of children
because they are attached and detached using bdrv_set_backing_hd()
rather than the normal set of functions, which does a few more things
like setting backing blockers, toggling the BDRV_O_NO_BACKING flag,
setting parent_bs->backing_file, etc.

These special features are a reason why change_parent_backing_link()

into .attach/.detach callbacks, we get a step closer to a function that

blk_new_open() is a convenience function that processes flags rather
than QDict options as a simple way to just open an image file.

In order to keep it convenient in the future, it must automatically
request the necessary permissions. This can easily be inferred from the
flags for read and write, but we need another flag that tells us whether
to get the resize permission.

We can't just always request it because that means that no block jobs
can run on the resulting BlockBackend (which is something that e.g.
qemu-img commit wants to do), but we also can't request it never because
most of the .bdrv_create() implementations call blk_truncate().

The solution is to introduce another flag that is passed by all users
that want to resize the image.

In many cases, the required permissions of one node on its children

In order to achieve this, this patch introduces two new BlockDriver
callbacks. The first one lets drivers first check (recursively) whether
the requested permissions can be set; the second one actually sets the
new permission bitmask.

Also add helper functions that drivers can use in their implementation

When attaching a node as a child to a new parent, the required and

This allows error returns to a function that previously always
succeeded, and the same is true for quite a few callers and their
callers. Converting all of them within the same patch would be too much,
so for now everyone tells that they don't need any permissions and allow
everyone else to do anything. This way we can use &error_abort initially

implement error handling.

All these places are marked with FIXME comments and it will be the job

Paolo Bonzini 0c330a734b aio: introduce aio_co_schedule and aio_co_wake
aio_co_wake provides the infrastructure to start a coroutine on a "home"
AioContext.  It will be used by CoMutex and CoQueue, so that coroutines
don't jump from one context to another when they go to sleep on a
mutex or waitqueue.  However, it can also be used as a more efficient
alternative to one-shot bottom halves, and saves the effort of tracking
which AioContext a coroutine is running on.

aio_co_schedule is the part of aio_co_wake that starts a coroutine
on a remove AioContext, but it is also useful to implement e.g.
bdrv_set_aio_context callbacks.

The implementation of aio_co_schedule is based on a lock-free
multiple-producer, single-consumer queue.  The multiple producers use
cmpxchg to add to a LIFO stack.  The consumer (a per-AioContext bottom
half) grabs all items added so far, inverts the list to make it FIFO,
and goes through it one item at a time until it's empty.  The data
structure was inspired by OSv, which uses it in the very code we'll
"port" to QEMU for the thread-safe CoMutex.

Most of the new code is really tests.

Eric Farman 482652502e block: Fix target variable of BLKSECTGET ioctl
Commit 6f6071745b ("raw-posix: Fetch max sectors for host block device")
introduced a routine to call the kernel BLKSECTGET ioctl, which stores the
result back to user space.  However, the size of the data returned depends
on the routine handling the ioctl.  The (compat_)blkdev_ioctl returns a
short, while sg_ioctl returns an int.  Thus, on big-endian systems, we can
find ourselves accidentally shifting the result to a much larger value.
(On s390x, a short is 16 bits while an int is 32 bits.)

Also, the two ioctl handlers return values in different scales (block
returns sectors, while sg returns bytes), so some tweaking of the outputs
is required such that hdev_get_max_transfer_length returns a value in a
consistent set of units.

Paolo Bonzini 8f90b5e91d block: get rid of bdrv_io_unplugged_begin/end
bdrv_io_plug and bdrv_io_unplug are only called (via their
BlockBackend equivalents) after starting asynchronous I/O.
bdrv_drain is not going to be called while they are running,
because---even if a coroutine runs for some reason---it will
only drain in the next iteration of the event loop through
bdrv_co_yield_to_drain.

So this mechanism is unnecessary, get rid of it.

Stefan Hajnoczi 82a4118694 aio: self-tune polling time
This patch is based on the algorithm for the kvm.ko halt_poll_ns
parameter in Linux.  The initial polling time is zero.

If the event loop is woken up within the maximum polling time it means
polling could be effective, so grow polling time.

If the event loop is woken up beyond the maximum polling time it means
polling is not effective, so shrink polling time.

If the event loop makes progress within the current polling time then
the sweet spot has been reached.

This algorithm adjusts the polling time so it can adapt to variations in
workloads.  The goal is to reach the sweet spot while also recognizing
when polling would hurt more than help.

Two new trace events, poll_grow and poll_shrink, are added for observing
polling time adjustment.

Stefan Hajnoczi 4a1cba3802 aio: add polling mode to AioContext
The AioContext event loop uses ppoll(2) or epoll_wait(2) to monitor file
descriptors or until a timer expires.  In cases like virtqueues, Linux
AIO, and ThreadPool it is technically possible to wait for events via
polling (i.e. continuously checking for events without blocking).

Polling can be faster than blocking syscalls because file descriptors,
the process scheduler, and system calls are bypassed.

The main disadvantage to polling is that it increases CPU utilization.
In classic polling configuration a full host CPU thread might run at
100% to respond to events as quickly as possible.  This patch implements
a timeout so we fall back to blocking syscalls if polling detects no
activity.  After the timeout no CPU cycles are wasted on polling until
the next event loop iteration.

The run_poll_handlers_begin() and run_poll_handlers_end() trace events
are added to aid performance analysis and troubleshooting.  If you need
to know whether polling mode is being used, trace these events to find
out.

Note that the AioContext is now re-acquired before disabling notify_me
in the non-polling case.  This makes the code cleaner since notify_me
was enabled outside the non-polling AioContext release region.  This
change is correct since it's safe to keep notify_me enabled longer
(disabling is an optimization) but potentially causes unnecessary
event_notifer_set() calls.  I think the chance of performance regression
is small here.

John Snow 111049a4ec blockjob: refactor backup_start as backup_job_create
Refactor backup_start as backup_job_create, which only creates the job,
but does not automatically start it. The old interface, 'backup_start',
is not kept in favor of limiting the number of nearly-identical interfaces
that would have to be edited to keep up with QAPI changes in the future.

Callers that wish to synchronously start the backup_block_job can
instead just call block_job_start immediately after calling
backup_job_create.

Transactions are updated to use the new interface, calling block_job_start
only during the .commit phase, which helps prevent race conditions where
jobs may finish before we even finish building the transaction. This may
happen, for instance, during empty block backup jobs.
