This adds a new BlockBackend field to the BlockJob struct, which
coexists with the BlockDriverState while converting the individual jobs.
When creating a block job, a new BlockBackend is created on top of the
given BlockDriverState, and it is destroyed when the BlockJob ends. The
reference to the BDS is now held by the BlockBackend instead of calling
bdrv_ref/unref manually.
We have to be careful when we use bdrv_replace_in_backing_chain() in
block jobs because this changes the BDS that job->blk points to. At the
moment block jobs are too tightly coupled with their BDS, so that moving
a job to another BDS isn't easily possible; therefore, we need to just
manually undo this change afterwards.

The existing users of the function are:

2. Some test cases that don't care about the setting
3. blockdev_init() for empty drives, where the cache mode is overridden
with the value from the options when a medium is inserted
Therefore, this patch doesn't change the current behaviour. It will be
convenient, however, for additional users of blk_new() (like block

When changing the BlockDriverState that a BdrvChild points to while the
node is currently drained, we must call the .drained_end() parent
callback. Conversely, when this means attaching a new node that is
already drained, we need to call .drained_begin().
bdrv_root_attach_child() takes now an opaque parameter, which is needed
because the callbacks must also be called if we're attaching a new child
to the BlockBackend when the root node is already drained, and they need
a way to identify the BlockBackend. Previously, child->opaque was set
too late and the callbacks would still see it as NULL.

had to have them because it could be called from other places.

The block layer has a couple of cases where it can lose
Force Unit Access semantics when writing a large block of
zeroes, such that the request returns before the zeroes
have been guaranteed to land on underlying media.
SCSI does not support FUA during WRITESAME(10/16); FUA is only
supported if it falls back to WRITE(10/16). But where the
underlying device is new enough to not need a fallback, it
means that any upper layer request with FUA semantics was
silently ignoring BDRV_REQ_FUA.
Conversely, NBD has situations where it can support FUA but not
ZERO_WRITE; when that happens, the generic block layer fallback
to bdrv_driver_pwritev() (or the older bdrv_co_writev() in qemu
2.6) was losing the FUA flag.
The problem of losing flags unrelated to ZERO_WRITE has been
latent in bdrv_co_do_write_zeroes() since commit aa7bfbff, but
back then, it did not matter because there was no FUA flag. It
became observable when commit 93f5e6d8 paved the way for flags
that can impact correctness, when we should have been using
bdrv_co_writev_flags() with modified flags. Compare to commit
9eeb6dd, which got flag manipulation right in
bdrv_co_do_zero_pwritev().
Symptoms: I tested with qemu-io with default writethrough cache
(which is supposed to use FUA semantics on every write), and
targetted an NBD client connected to a server that intentionally
did not advertise NBD_FLAG_SEND_FUA. When doing 'write 0 512',
the NBD client sent two operations (NBD_CMD_WRITE then
NBD_CMD_FLUSH) to get the fallback FUA semantics; but when doing
'write -z 0 512', the NBD client sent only NBD_CMD_WRITE.
The fix is do to a cleanup bdrv_co_flush() at the end of the
operation if any step in the middle relied on a BDS that does
not natively support FUA for that step (note that we don't
need to flush after every operation, if the operation is broken
into chunks based on bounce-buffer sizing). Each BDS gains a
new flag .supported_zero_flags, which parallels the use of
.supported_write_flags but only when accessing a zero write
operation (the flags MUST be different, because of SCSI having
different semantics based on WRITE vs. WRITESAME; and also
because BDRV_REQ_MAY_UNMAP only makes sense on zero writes).
Also fix some documentation to describe -ENOTSUP semantics,
particularly since iscsi depends on those semantics.
Down the road, we may want to add a driver where its
.bdrv_co_pwritev() honors all three of BDRV_REQ_FUA,
BDRV_REQ_ZERO_WRITE, and BDRV_REQ_MAY_UNMAP, and advertise
this via bs->supported_write_flags for blocks opened by that
driver; such a driver should NOT supply .bdrv_co_write_zeroes
nor .supported_zero_flags. But none of the drivers touched
in this patch want to do that (the act of writing zeroes is
different enough from normal writes to deserve a second
callback).

Pre-patch, .supported_write_flags lives at the driver level, which
means we are blindly declaring that all block devices using a
given driver will either equally support FUA, or that we need a
fallback at the block layer. But there are drivers where FUA
support is a per-block decision: the NBD block driver is dependent
on the remote server advertising NBD_FLAG_SEND_FUA (and has
fallback code to duplicate the flush that the block layer would do
if NBD had not set .supported_write_flags); and the iscsi block
driver is dependent on the mode sense bits advertised by the
underlying device (and is currently silently ignoring FUA requests
if the underlying device does not support FUA).
The fix is to make supported flags as a per-BDS option, set during
.bdrv_open(). This patch moves the variable and fixes NBD and iscsi
to set it only conditionally; later patches will then further
simplify the NBD driver to quit duplicating work done at the block
layer, as well as tackle the fact that SCSI does not support FUA
semantics on WRITESAME(10/16) but only on WRITE(10/16).

There is a possibility that qcow2_co_write_zeroes() will be called
with the partial block. This could be synthetically triggered with
qemu-io -c "write -z 32k 4k"
and can happen in the real life in qemu-nbd. The latter happens under
the following conditions:
(1) qemu-nbd is started with --detect-zeroes=on and is connected to the
kernel NBD client
(2) third party program opens kernel NBD device with O_DIRECT
(3) third party program performs write operation with memory buffer
not aligned to the page
In this case qcow2_co_write_zeroes() is unable to perform the operation
and mark entire cluster as zeroed and returns ENOTSUP. Thus the caller
switches to non-optimized version and writes real zeroes to the disk.
The patch creates a shortcut. If the block is read as zeroes, f.e. if
it is unallocated, the request is extended to cover full block.
User-visible situation with this block is not changed. Before the patch
the block is filled in the image with real zeroes. After that patch the
block is marked as zeroed in metadata. Thus any subsequent changes in
backing store chain are not affected.
