bdrv_reopen_queue_child() assumes that a BlockDriverState is never
added twice to BlockReopenQueue.
That's however not the case: commit_start() adds 'base' (and its
children) to a new reopen queue, and then 'overlay_bs' (and its
children, which include 'base') to the same queue. The effect of this
is that the first set of options is ignored and overriden by the
second.
We fixed this by swapping the order in which both BDSs were added to
the queue in 3db2bd5508. This patch
checks if a BDS is already in the reopen queue and keeps its options.

This adds the "read-only" option to the QDict. One important effect of
this change is that when a child inherits options from its parent, the
existing "read-only" mode can be preserved if it was explicitly set
previously.
This addresses scenarios like this:
[E] <- [D] <- [C] <- [B] <- [A]
In this case, if we reopen [D] with read-only=off, and later reopen
[B], then [D] will not inherit read-only=on from its parent during the
bdrv_reopen_queue_child() stage.
The BDRV_O_RDWR flag is not removed yet, but its keep in sync with the
value of the "read-only" option.

We're only doing this immediately before opening the image, but
bs->open_flags is used earlier in the function. At the moment this is
not causing problems because none of the checked flags are modified by
update_flags_from_options(), but this will change when we introduce
the "read-only" option.
This patch calls update_flags_from_options() at the beginning of the
function, immediately after creating the QemuOpts.

If an image is opened with snapshot=on, its flags are modified by
bdrv_backing_options() and then bs->open_flags is updated accordingly.
This last step is unnecessary if we calculate the new flags before
setting bs->open_flags.
Soon we'll introduce the "read-only" option, and then we'll need to
be able to modify its value in the QDict when snapshot=on. This is
more cumbersome if bs->options is already set. This patch simplifies
that. Other than that, there are no semantic changes. Although it
might seem that bs->options can have a different value now because
it is stored after calling bdrv_backing_options(), this call doesn't
actually modify them in this scenario.
The code that sets BDRV_O_ALLOW_RDWR is also moved for the same
reason.

Extend the current module interface to allow for block drivers to be
loaded dynamically on request. The only block drivers that can be
converted into modules are the drivers that don't perform any init
operation except for registering themselves.
In addition, only the protocol drivers are being modularized, as they
are the only ones which see significant performance benefits. The format
drivers do not generally link to external libraries, so modularizing
them is of no benefit from a performance perspective.
All the necessary module information is located in a new structure found
in module_block.h
This spoils the purpose of 5505e8b76f (block/dmg: make it modular).
Before this patch, if module build is enabled, block-dmg.so is linked to
libbz2, whereas the main binary is not. In downstream, theoretically, it
means only the qemu-block-extra package depends on libbz2, while the
main QEMU package needn't to. With this patch, we (temporarily) change
the case so that the main QEMU depends on libbz2 again.

The builtin NBD server uses its own BlockBackend now instead of reusing
the monitor/guest device one.
This means that it has its own writethrough setting now. The builtin
NBD server always uses writeback caching now regardless of whether the
guest device has WCE enabled. qemu-nbd respects the cache mode given on

Some guests (win2008 server for example) do a lot of unnecessary
flushing when underlying media has not changed. This adds additional
overhead on host when calling fsync/fdatasync.
This change introduces a write generation scheme in BlockDriverState.
Current write generation is checked against last flushed generation to
avoid unnessesary flushes.
The problem with excessive flushing was found by a performance test
which does parallel directory tree creation (from 2 processes).
Results improved from 0.424 loops/sec to 0.432 loops/sec.
Each loop creates 10^3 directories with 10 files in each.
This affected some blkdebug testcases that were expecting error logs from
failure-injected flushes which are now skipped entirely
(tests 026 071 089).
This also affects the performance of block jobs and thus BLOCK_JOB_READY
events for driver-mirror and active block-commit commands now arrives
faster, before QMP send successfully returns to caller (tests 141 144).

In practice the entry argument is always known at creation time, and
it is confusing that sometimes qemu_coroutine_enter is used with a
non-NULL argument to re-enter a coroutine (this happens in
block/sheepdog.c and tests/test-coroutine.c). So pass the opaque value
at creation time, for consistency with e.g. aio_bh_new.
Mostly done with the following semantic patch:
@ entry1 @

Now that all drivers have been updated to supply an override
of request_alignment during their .bdrv_refresh_limits(), as
needed, the block layer itself can defer setting the default
alignment until part of the overall bdrv_refresh_limits().

It's possible that an AioContext notifier user was close to finishing
when .detach_aio_context() or .attached_aio_context() is called. In
that case they may call bdrv_remove_aio_context_notifier() during the
callback.
Use safe iteration to avoid crashing when the notifier list is modified
during iteration. We must not only handle the case where the current
aio notifier is removed during a callback but also the one where any
other aio notifier is removed.
The next patch adds an AioContext notifier for block jobs and they
really could be terminating just as .detach_aio_context() is invoked.

Currently, we are trying to move the backing BDS from the source to the
target in bdrv_replace_in_backing_chain() which is called from
mirror_exit(). However, mirror_complete() already tries to open the
target's backing chain with a call to bdrv_open_backing_file().
First, we should only set the target's backing BDS once. Second, the
mirroring block job has a better idea of what to set it to than the
generic code in bdrv_replace_in_backing_chain() (in fact, the latter's
conditions on when to move the backing BDS from source to target are not
really correct).
Therefore, remove that code from bdrv_replace_in_backing_chain() and
leave it to mirror_complete().
Depending on what kind of mirroring is performed, we furthermore want to
use different strategies to open the target's backing chain:
- If blockdev-mirror is used, we can assume the user made sure that the
target already has the correct backing chain. In particular, we should
not try to open a backing file if the target does not have any yet.
- If drive-mirror with mode=absolute-paths is used, we can and should
reuse the already existing chain of nodes that the source BDS is in.
In case of sync=full, no backing BDS is required; with sync=top, we
just link the source's backing BDS to the target, and with sync=none,
we use the source BDS as the target's backing BDS.
We should not try to open these backing files anew because this would
lead to two BDSs existing per physical file in the backing chain, and
we would like to avoid such concurrent access.
- If drive-mirror with mode=existing is used, we have to use the
information provided in the physical image file which means opening
the target's backing chain completely anew, just as it has been done
already.
If the target's backing chain shares images with the source, this may
lead to multiple BDSs per physical image file. But since we cannot
reliably ascertain this case, there is nothing we can do about it.

change_parent_backing_link() asserts that the BDS to be replaced is not
used as a backing file. However, we may want to replace a BDS by its
overlay in which case that very link should not be redirected.
For instance, when doing a sync=none drive-mirror operation, we may have
the following BDS/BB forest before block job completion:
target
base <- source <- BlockBackend
During job completion, we want to establish the source BDS as the
target's backing node:
target
|
v
base <- source <- BlockBackend
This makes the target a valid replacement for the source:
target <- BlockBackend
|
v
base <- source
Without this modification to change_parent_backing_link() we have to
inject the target into the graph before the source is its backing node,
thus temporarily creating a wrong graph:
target <- BlockBackend
base <- source
