Our current QAPI doc-comment markup allows section headers (introduced
with a leading '=' or '==') anywhere in a free-form documentation
comment. This works for Texinfo because the generator simply prints a
Texinfo section command at that point in the output stream. For rST
generation, since we're assembling a tree of docutils nodes, this is
awkward because a new section implies starting a new section node at
the top level of the tree and generating text into there.
Make section headers start a new free-form documentation block, so the
future rST document generator doesn't have to look at every line in
free-form blocks and handle headings in odd places.
This change makes no difference to the generated Texinfo.

There are several problems here that can result in soft lockup,

Include BIMM_FLAG in IFLAGS_TB_MASK, since it needs to follow D_FLAG.
Ensure that iflags is 0 when entering an interrupt/exception handler.
Add mb_cpu_synchronize_from_tb to restore iflags from tb->flags.

Parts of the block layer treat BDS.backing_file as if it were whatever
the image header says (i.e., if it is a relative path, it is relative to
the overlay), other parts treat it like a cache for
bs->backing->bs->filename (relative paths are relative to the CWD).
Considering bs->backing->bs->filename exists, let us make it mean the
former.
Among other things, this now allows the user to specify a base when
using qemu-img to commit an image file in a directory that is not the
CWD (assuming, everything uses relative filenames).
Before this patch:
$ ./qemu-img create -f qcow2 foo/bot.qcow2 1M
$ ./qemu-img create -f qcow2 -b bot.qcow2 foo/mid.qcow2
$ ./qemu-img create -f qcow2 -b mid.qcow2 foo/top.qcow2
$ ./qemu-img commit -b mid.qcow2 foo/top.qcow2
qemu-img: Did not find 'mid.qcow2' in the backing chain of 'foo/top.qcow2'
$ ./qemu-img commit -b foo/mid.qcow2 foo/top.qcow2
qemu-img: Did not find 'foo/mid.qcow2' in the backing chain of 'foo/top.qcow2'
$ ./qemu-img commit -b $PWD/foo/mid.qcow2 foo/top.qcow2
qemu-img: Did not find '[...]/foo/mid.qcow2' in the backing chain of 'foo/top.qcow2'
After this patch:
$ ./qemu-img commit -b mid.qcow2 foo/top.qcow2
Image committed.
$ ./qemu-img commit -b foo/mid.qcow2 foo/top.qcow2
qemu-img: Did not find 'foo/mid.qcow2' in the backing chain of 'foo/top.qcow2'
$ ./qemu-img commit -b $PWD/foo/mid.qcow2 foo/top.qcow2
Image committed.
With this change, bdrv_find_backing_image() must look at whether the
user has overridden a BDS's backing file. If so, it can no longer use
bs->backing_file, but must instead compare the given filename against
the backing node's filename directly.
Note that this changes the QAPI output for a node's backing_file. We
had very inconsistent output there (sometimes what the image header
said, sometimes the actual filename of the backing image). This
inconsistent output was effectively useless, so we have to decide one
way or the other. Considering that bs->backing_file usually at runtime
contained the path to the image relative to qemu's CWD (or absolute),
this patch changes QAPI's backing_file to always report the
bs->backing->bs->filename from now on. If you want to receive the image
header information, you have to refer to full-backing-filename.
This necessitates a change to iotest 228. The interesting information
it really wanted is the image header, and it can get that now, but it
has to use full-backing-filename instead of backing_file. Because of
this patch's changes to bs->backing_file's behavior, we also need some
reference output changes.
Along with the changes to bs->backing_file, stop updating
BDS.backing_format in bdrv_backing_attach() as well. This way,
ImageInfo's backing-filename and backing-filename-format fields will
represent what the image header says and nothing else.
iotest 245 changes in behavior: With the backing node no longer
overriding the parent node's backing_file string, you can now omit the
@backing option when reopening a node with neither a default nor a
current backing file even if it used to have a backing node at some
point.
273 also changes: The base image is opened without a format layer, so
ImageInfo.backing-filename-format used to report "file" for the base
image's overlay after blockdev-snapshot. However, the image header
never says "file" anywhere, so it now reports $IMGFMT.

There are two practical problems with bdrv_get_allocated_file_size()'s
default right now:
(1) For drivers with children, we should generally sum all their sizes
instead of just passing the request through to bs->file. The latter
is good for filters, but not so much for format drivers.
(2) Filters need not have bs->file, so we should actually go to the
filtered child instead of hard-coding bs->file.
Fix this by splitting the default implementation into three branches:
(1) For filter drivers: Return the size of the filtered child
(2) For protocol drivers: Return -ENOTSUP, because the default
implementation cannot make a guess
(3) For other drivers: Sum all data-bearing children's sizes
