raw-posix: add support for write_zeroes on XFS and block devices
The code is similar to the implementation of discard and write_zeroes with UNMAP. However, failure must be propagated up to block.c. The stale page cache problem can be reproduced as follows: # modprobe scsi-debug lbpws=1 lbprz=1 # ./qemu-io /dev/sdXX qemu-io> write -P 0xcc 0 2M qemu-io> write -z 0 1M qemu-io> read -P 0x00 0 512 Pattern verification failed at offset 0, 512 bytes qemu-io> read -v 0 512 00000000: cc cc cc cc cc cc cc cc cc cc cc cc cc cc cc cc ................ ... # ./qemu-io --cache=none /dev/sdXX qemu-io> write -P 0xcc 0 2M qemu-io> write -z 0 1M qemu-io> read -P 0x00 0 512 qemu-io> read -v 0 512 00000000: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ ... And similarly with discard instead of "write -z". Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>
