      nbd/server: Simplify zero and trim · e3557422
      Eric Blake authored 
      
Now that the block layer supports 64-bit operations (see commit
2800637a and friends, new to v6.2), we no longer have to self-fragment
requests larger than 2G, reverting the workaround added in 890cbccb
("nbd: Fix large trim/zero requests", v5.1.0).

      nbd/server: Don't complain on certain client disconnects · 1644ccce
      Eric Blake authored 
      When a client disconnects abruptly, but did not have any pending
requests (for example, when using nbdsh without calling h.shutdown),
we used to output the following message:

$ qemu-nbd -f raw file
$ nbdsh -u 'nbd://localhost:10809' -c 'h.trim(1,0)'
qemu-nbd: Disconnect client, due to: Failed to read request: Unexpected end-of-file before all bytes were read

Then in commit f148ae7d, we refactored nbd_receive_request() to use
nbd_read_eof(); when this returns 0, we regressed into tracing
uninitialized memory (if tracing is enabled) and reporting a
less-specific:

qemu-nbd: Disconnect client, due to: Request handling failed in intermediate state

Note that with Unix sockets, we have yet another error message,
unchanged by the 6.0 regression:

$ qemu-nbd -k /tmp/sock -f raw file
$ nbdsh -u 'nbd+unix:///?socket=/tmp/sock

' -c 'h.trim(1,0)'
qemu-nbd: Disconnect client, due to: Failed to send reply: Unable to write to socket: Broken pipe

But in all cases, the error message goes away if the client performs a
soft shutdown by using NBD_CMD_DISC, rather than a hard shutdown by
abrupt disconnect:

$ nbdsh -u 'nbd://localhost:10809' -c 'h.trim(1,0)' -c 'h.shutdown()'

This patch fixes things to avoid uninitialized memory, and in general
avoids warning about a client that does a hard shutdown when not in
the middle of a packet.  A client that aborts mid-request, or which
does not read the full server's reply, can still result in warnings,
but those are indeed much more unusual situations.

      block/nbd: drop connection_co · 4ddb5d2f
      Vladimir Sementsov-Ogievskiy authored 
      
OK, that's a big rewrite of the logic.

Pre-patch we have an always running coroutine - connection_co. It does
reply receiving and reconnecting. And it leads to a lot of difficult
and unobvious code around drained sections and context switch. We also
abuse bs->in_flight counter which is increased for connection_co and
temporary decreased in points where we want to allow drained section to
begin. One of these place is in another file: in nbd_read_eof() in
nbd/client.c.

We also cancel reconnect and requests waiting for reconnect on drained
begin which is not correct. And this patch fixes that.

Let's finally drop this always running coroutine and go another way:
do both reconnect and receiving in request coroutines.

The detailed list of changes below (in the sequence of diff hunks).

1. receiving coroutines are woken directly from nbd_channel_error, when
   we change s->state

2. nbd_co_establish_connection_cancel(): we don't have drain_begin now,
   and in nbd_teardown_connection() all requests should already be
   finished (and reconnect is done from request). So
   nbd_co_establish_connection_cancel() is called from
   nbd_cancel_in_flight() (to cancel the request that is doing
   nbd_co_establish_connection()) and from reconnect_delay_timer_cb()
   (previously we didn't need it, as reconnect delay only should cancel
   active requests not the reconnection itself). But now reconnection
   itself is done in the separate thread (we now call
   nbd_client_connection_enable_retry() in nbd_open()), and we need to
   cancel the requests that wait in nbd_co_establish_connection()
   now).

2A. We do receive headers in request coroutine. But we also should
   dispatch replies for other pending requests. So,
   nbd_connection_entry() is turned into nbd_receive_replies(), which
   does reply dispatching while it receives other request headers, and
   returns when it receives the requested header.

3. All old staff around drained sections and context switch is dropped.
   In details:
   - we don't need to move connection_co to new aio context, as we
     don't have connection_co anymore
   - we don't have a fake "request" of connection_co (extra increasing
     in_flight), so don't care with it in drain_begin/end
   - we don't stop reconnection during drained section anymore. This
     means that drain_begin may wait for a long time (up to
     reconnect_delay). But that's an improvement and more correct
     behavior see below[*]

4. In nbd_teardown_connection() we don't have to wait for
   connection_co, as it is dropped. And cleanup for s->ioc and nbd_yank
   is moved here from removed connection_co.

5. In nbd_co_do_establish_connection() we now should handle
   NBD_CLIENT_CONNECTING_NOWAIT: if new request comes when we are in
   NBD_CLIENT_CONNECTING_NOWAIT, it still should call
   nbd_co_establish_connection() (who knows, maybe the connection was
   already established by another thread in the background). But we
   shouldn't wait: if nbd_co_establish_connection() can't return new
   channel immediately the request should fail (we are in
   NBD_CLIENT_CONNECTING_NOWAIT state).

6. nbd_reconnect_attempt() is simplified: it's now easier to wait for
   other requests in the caller, so here we just assert that fact.
   Also delay time is now initialized here: we can easily detect first
   attempt and start a timer.

7. nbd_co_reconnect_loop() is dropped, we don't need it. Reconnect
   retries are fully handle by thread (nbd/client-connection.c), delay
   timer we initialize in nbd_reconnect_attempt(), we don't have to
   bother with s->drained and friends. nbd_reconnect_attempt() now
   called from nbd_co_send_request().

8. nbd_connection_entry is dropped: reconnect is now handled by
   nbd_co_send_request(), receiving reply is now handled by
   nbd_receive_replies(): all handled from request coroutines.

9. So, welcome new nbd_receive_replies() called from request coroutine,
   that receives reply header instead of nbd_connection_entry().
   Like with sending requests, only one coroutine may receive in a
   moment. So we introduce receive_mutex, which is locked around
   nbd_receive_reply(). It also protects some related fields. Still,
   full audit of thread-safety in nbd driver is a separate task.
   New function waits for a reply with specified handle being received
   and works rather simple:

   Under mutex:
     - if current handle is 0, do receive by hand. If another handle
       received - switch to other request coroutine, release mutex and
       yield. Otherwise return success
     - if current handle == requested handle, we are done
     - otherwise, release mutex and yield

10: in nbd_co_send_request() we now do nbd_reconnect_attempt() if
    needed. Also waiting in free_sema queue we now wait for one of two
    conditions:
    - connectED, in_flight < MAX_NBD_REQUESTS (so we can start new one)
    - connectING, in_flight == 0, so we can call
      nbd_reconnect_attempt()
    And this logic is protected by s->send_mutex

    Also, on failure we don't have to care of removed s->connection_co

11. nbd_co_do_receive_one_chunk(): now instead of yield() and wait for
    s->connection_co we just call new nbd_receive_replies().

12. nbd_co_receive_one_chunk(): place where s->reply.handle becomes 0,
    which means that handling of the whole reply is finished. Here we
    need to wake one of coroutines sleeping in nbd_receive_replies().
    If none are sleeping - do nothing. That's another behavior change: we
    don't have endless recv() in the idle time. It may be considered as
    a drawback. If so, it may be fixed later.

13. nbd_reply_chunk_iter_receive(): don't care about removed
    connection_co, just ping in_flight waiters.

14. Don't create connection_co, enable retry in the connection thread
    (we don't have own reconnect loop anymore)

15. We now need to add a nbd_co_establish_connection_cancel() call in
    nbd_cancel_in_flight(), to cancel the request that is doing a
    connection attempt.

[*], ok, now we don't cancel reconnect on drain begin. That's correct:
    reconnect feature leads to possibility of long-running requests (up
    to reconnect delay). Still, drain begin is not a reason to kill
    long requests. We should wait for them.

    This also means, that we can again reproduce a dead-lock, described
    in 8c517de2.
    Why we are OK with it:
    1. Now this is not absolutely-dead dead-lock: the vm is unfrozen
       after reconnect delay. Actually 8c517de2 fixed a bug in
       NBD logic, that was not described in 8c517de2 and led to
       forever dead-lock. The problem was that nobody woke the free_sema
       queue, but drain_begin can't finish until there is a request in
       free_sema queue. Now we have a reconnect delay timer that works
       well.
    2. It's not a problem of the NBD driver, but of the ide code,
       because it does drain_begin under the global mutex; the problem
       doesn't reproduce when using scsi instead of ide.

      nbd/client-connection: nbd_co_establish_connection(): fix non set errp · f7ca4aad
      Vladimir Sementsov-Ogievskiy authored 
      
When we don't have a connection and blocking is false, we return NULL
but don't set errp. That's wrong.

We have two paths for calling nbd_co_establish_connection():

1. nbd_open() -> nbd_do_establish_connection() -> ...
  but that will never set blocking=false

2. nbd_reconnect_attempt() -> nbd_co_do_establish_connection() -> ...
  but that uses errp=NULL

So, we are safe with our wrong errp policy in
nbd_co_establish_connection(). Still let's fix it.

      nbd/server: Allow LIST_META_CONTEXT without STRUCTURED_REPLY · da24597d
      Eric Blake authored 
      The NBD protocol just relaxed the requirements on
NBD_OPT_LIST_META_CONTEXT:

https://github.com/NetworkBlockDevice/nbd/commit/13a4e33a87



Since listing is not stateful (unlike SET_META_CONTEXT), we don't care
if a client asks for meta contexts without first requesting structured
replies.  Well-behaved clients will still ask for structured reply
first (if for no other reason than for back-compat to older servers),
but that's no reason to avoid this change.

      nbd: server: Report holes for raw images · 0da98568
      Nir Soffer authored 
      When querying image extents for raw image, qemu-nbd reports holes as
zero:

$ qemu-nbd -t -r -f raw empty-6g.raw

$ qemu-img map --output json nbd://localhost
[{ "start": 0, "length": 6442450944, "depth": 0, "zero": true, "data": true, "offset": 0}]

$ qemu-img map --output json empty-6g.raw
[{ "start": 0, "length": 6442450944, "depth": 0, "zero": true, "data": false, "offset": 0}]

Turns out that qemu-img map reports a hole based on BDRV_BLOCK_DATA, but
nbd server reports a hole based on BDRV_BLOCK_ALLOCATED.

The NBD protocol says:

    NBD_STATE_HOLE (bit 0): if set, the block represents a hole (and
    future writes to that area may cause fragmentation or encounter an
    NBD_ENOSPC error); if clear, the block is allocated or the server
    could not otherwise determine its status.

qemu-img manual says:

    whether the sectors contain actual data or not (boolean field data;
    if false, the sectors are either unallocated or stored as
    optimized all-zero clusters);

To me, data=false looks compatible with NBD_STATE_HOLE. From user point
of view, getting same results from qemu-nbd and qemu-img is more
important than being more correct about allocation status.

Changing nbd server to report holes using BDRV_BLOCK_DATA makes qemu-nbd
results compatible with qemu-img map:

$ qemu-img map --output json nbd://localhost


[{ "start": 0, "length": 6442450944, "depth": 0, "zero": true, "data": false, "offset": 0}]

      nbd/server: Quiesce coroutines on context switch · f148ae7d
      Sergio Lopez authored 
      When switching between AIO contexts we need to me make sure that both
recv_coroutine and send_coroutine are not scheduled to run. Otherwise,
QEMU may crash while attaching the new context with an error like
this one:

aio_co_schedule: Co-routine was already scheduled in 'aio_co_schedule'

To achieve this we need a local implementation of
'qio_channel_readv_all_eof' named 'nbd_read_eof' (a trick already done
by 'nbd/client.c') that allows us to interrupt the operation and to
know when recv_coroutine is yielding.

With this in place, we delegate detaching the AIO context to the
owning context with a BH ('nbd_aio_detach_bh') scheduled using
'aio_wait_bh_oneshot'. This BH signals that we need to quiesce the
channel by setting 'client->quiescing' to 'true', and either waits for
the coroutine to finish using AIO_WAIT_WHILE or, if it's yielding in
'nbd_read_eof', actively enters the coroutine to interrupt it.

      nbd: Add 'qemu-nbd -A' to expose allocation depth · dbc7b014
      Eric Blake authored 
      
Allow the server to expose an additional metacontext to be requested
by savvy clients.  qemu-nbd adds a new option -A to expose the
qemu:allocation-depth metacontext through NBD_CMD_BLOCK_STATUS; this
can also be set via QMP when using block-export-add.

qemu as client is hacked into viewing the key aspects of this new
context by abusing the already-experimental x-dirty-bitmap option to
collapse all depths greater than 2, which results in a tri-state value
visible in the output of 'qemu-img map --output=json' (yes, that means
x-dirty-bitmap is now a bit of a misnomer, but I didn't feel like
renaming it as it would introduce a needless break of back-compat,
even though we make no compat guarantees with x- members):

unallocated (depth 0) => "zero":false, "data":true
local (depth 1)       => "zero":false, "data":false
backing (depth 2+)    => "zero":true,  "data":true

libnbd as client is probably a nicer way to get at the information
without having to decipher such hacks in qemu as client. ;)

      nbd: Add new qemu:allocation-depth metadata context · 71719cd5
      Eric Blake authored 
      
'qemu-img map' provides a way to determine which extents of an image
come from the top layer vs. inherited from a backing chain.  This is
useful information worth exposing over NBD.  There is a proposal to
add a QMP command block-dirty-bitmap-populate which can create a dirty
bitmap that reflects allocation information, at which point the
qemu:dirty-bitmap:NAME metadata context can expose that information
via the creation of a temporary bitmap, but we can shorten the effort
by adding a new qemu:allocation-depth metadata context that does the
same thing without an intermediate bitmap (this patch does not
eliminate the need for that proposal, as it will have other uses as
well).

While documenting things, remember that although the NBD protocol has
NBD_OPT_SET_META_CONTEXT, the rest of its documentation refers to
'metadata context', which is a more apt description of what is
actually being used by NBD_CMD_BLOCK_STATUS: the user is requesting
metadata by passing one or more context names.  So I also touched up
some existing wording to prefer the term 'metadata context' where it
makes sense.

Note that this patch does not actually enable any way to request a
server to enable this context; that will come in the next patch.

      nbd: Update qapi to support exporting multiple bitmaps · cbad81ce

Since 'block-export-add' is new to 5.2, we can still tweak the
interface; there, allowing 'bitmaps':['str'] is nicer than
'bitmap':'str'.  This wires up the qapi and qemu-nbd changes to permit
passing multiple bitmaps as distinct metadata contexts that the NBD
client may request, but the actual support for more than one will
require a further patch to the server.

Note that there are no changes made to the existing deprecated
'nbd-server-add' command; this required splitting the QAPI type
BlockExportOptionsNbd, which fortunately does not affect QMP
introspection.

Block exports are used by softmmu, qemu-storage-daemon, and qemu-nbd.
They are not used by other programs and are not otherwise needed in

Undo the recent move of blockdev-nbd.c from blockdev_ss into block_ss.
Since bdrv_close_all() (libblock) calls blk_exp_close_all()
(libblockdev) a stub function is required..

Make qemu-nbd.c use signal handling utility functions instead of
duplicating the code. This helps because os-posix.c is in libblockdev
and it depends on a qemu_system_killed() symbol that qemu-nbd.c lacks.
Once we use the signal handling utility functions we also end up
providing the necessary symbol.

      nbd: Simplify meta-context parsing · ebd57062
      Eric Blake authored 
      
We had a premature optimization of trying to read as little from the
wire as possible while handling NBD_OPT_SET_META_CONTEXT in phases.
But in reality, we HAVE to read the entire string from the client
before we can get to the next command, and it is easier to just read
it all at once than it is to read it in pieces.  And once we do that,
several functions end up no longer performing I/O, so they can drop
length and errp parameters, and just return a bool instead of
modifying through a pointer.

Our iotests still pass; I also checked that libnbd's testsuite (which
covers more corner cases of odd meta context requests) still passes.
There are cases where the sequence of trace messages produced differs
(for example, when no bitmap is exported, a query for "qemu:" now
produces two trace lines instead of one), but trace points are for
debug and have no effect on what the client sees.

      nbd/server: Reject embedded NUL in NBD strings · d1e2c3e7
      Eric Blake authored 
      
The NBD spec is clear that any string sent from the client must not
contain embedded NUL characters.  If the client passes "a\0", we
should reject that option request rather than act on "a".

Testing this is not possible with a compliant client, but I was able
to use gdb to coerce libnbd into temporarily behaving as such a
client.

gcc 10 from Fedora 32 gives me:

Compiling C object libblock.fa.p/nbd_server.c.o
../nbd/server.c: In function ‘nbd_co_client_start’:

cc1: all warnings being treated as errors

As I cannot see how this can happen, let uns silence the warning.
