2017-03-07block: Fix error handling in bdrv_replace_in_backing_chain()Kevin Wolf1-1/+1
When adding an Error parameter, bdrv_replace_in_backing_chain() would become nothing more than a wrapper around change_parent_backing_link(). So make the latter public, renamed as bdrv_replace_node(), and remove bdrv_replace_in_backing_chain(). Most of the callers just remove a node from the graph that they just inserted, so they can use &error_abort, but completion of a mirror job with 'replaces' set can actually fail.

2017-03-07block: Fix blockdev-snapshot error handlingKevin Wolf1-1/+3
For blockdev-snapshot, external_snapshot_prepare() accepts an arbitrary node reference at first and only checks later whether it already has a backing file. Between those places, other errors can occur. Therefore checking in external_snapshot_abort() whether state->new_bs has a backing file is not sufficient to tell whether bdrv_append() was already completed or not. Trying to undo the bdrv_append() when it wasn't even executed is wrong. Introduce a new boolean flag in the state to fix this.

2017-02-28block: Add Error parameter to bdrv_append()Kevin Wolf1-3/+15
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.

2017-02-28commit: Add filter-node-name to block-commitKevin Wolf1-3/+7
Management tools need to be able to know about every node in the graph and need a way to address them. Changing the graph structure was okay because libvirt doesn't really manage the node level yet, but future libvirt versions need to deal with both new and old version of qemu. This new option to blockdev-commit allows the client to set a node-name for the automatically inserted filter driver, and at the same time serves as a witness for a future libvirt that this version of qemu does automatically insert a filter driver.

2017-02-28block: Add permissions to blk_new()Kevin Wolf1-2/+2
We want every user to be specific about the permissions it needs, so we'll pass the initial permissions as parameters to blk_new(). A user only needs to call blk_set_perm() if it wants to change the permissions after the fact. The permissions are stored in the BlockBackend and applied whenever a BlockDriverState should be attached in blk_insert_bs(). This does not include actually choosing the right set of permissions everywhere yet. Instead, the usual FIXME comment is added to each place and will be addressed in individual patches.

2017-02-21blockdev: Make orphaned -drive fatalMarkus Armbruster1-7/+7
Block backends defined with "-drive if=T" with T other than "none" are meant to be picked up by machine initialization code: a suitable frontend gets created and wired up automatically. If machine initialization code doesn't comply, the block backend remains unused. This triggers a warning since commit a66c9dc, v2.2.0.

2016-11-14blockjob: refactor backup_start as backup_job_createJohn Snow1-29/+52
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.

qmp_block_commit() checks for op blockers in the active and destination (base) images. However all nodes between top_bs and base are also involved, and they are removed from the chain afterwards. In addition to that, if top_bs is not the active layer then top_bs's overlay also needs to be checked because it's involved in the job (its backing image string needs to be updated to point to 'base').

The idea is simple - backup is "written-once" data. It is written block by block and it is large enough. It would be nice to save storage space and compress it. The patch adds a flag to the qmp/hmp drive-backup command which enables block compression. Compression should be implemented in the format driver to enable this feature. There are some limitations of the format driver to allow compressed writes. We can write data only once. Though for backup this is perfectly fine.

2016-09-05block: Accept node-name for drive-mirrorKevin Wolf1-11/+3
In order to remove the necessity to use BlockBackend names in the external API, we want to allow node-names everywhere. This converts drive-mirror to accept a node-name without lifting the restriction that we're operating at a root node. In case of an invalid device name, the command returns the GenericError error class now instead of DeviceNotFound, because this is what qmp_get_root_bs() returns.
