block/io: support int64_t bytes in bdrv_co_do_pwrite_zeroes()
We are generally moving to int64_t for both offset and bytes parameters on all io paths. Main motivation is realization of 64-bit write_zeroes operation for fast zeroing large disk chunks, up to the whole disk. We chose signed type, to be consistent with off_t (which is signed) and with possibility for signed return type (where negative value means error). So, prepare bdrv_co_do_pwrite_zeroes() now. Callers are safe, as converting int to int64_t is safe. Concentrate on 'bytes' usage in the function (thx to Eric Blake): compute 'int tail' via % 'int alignment' - safe fragmentation loop 'int num' - still fragments with a cap on max_transfer use of 'num' within the loop MIN(bytes, max_transfer) as well as %alignment - still works, so calculations in if (head) {} are safe clamp size by 'int max_write_zeroes' - safe drv->bdrv_co_pwrite_zeroes(int) - safe because of clamping clamp size by 'int max_transfer' - safe buf allocation is still clamped to max_transfer qemu_iovec_init_buf(size_t) - safe because of clamping bdrv_driver_pwritev(uint64_t) - safe Signed-off-by:Vladimir Sementsov-Ogievskiy <vsementsov@virtuozzo.com> Message-Id: <20201211183934.169161-11-vsementsov@virtuozzo.com> Reviewed-by:
