Instead of storing the backing file in its own BlockDriverState, VMDK uses the BlockDriverState of the raw image file it opened. This is wrong and breaks functions that access the backing file or protocols. This fix replaces all occurrences of s->hd->backing_* with bs->backing_*. This fixes qemu-iotests failure in 020 (Commit changes to backing file). Signed-off-by:

In qemu-iotests, some large images are created using qemu-img. Without checks for errors, qemu-img will just create an empty image, and later read / write tests will fail. With the patch, failures during image creation are detected and reported. Signed-off-by:

The VM state offset is a concept internal to the image format. Replace the old bdrv_{get,put}_buffer method that require an index into the image file that is constructed from the VM state offset and an offset into the vmstate with the bdrv_{load,save}_vmstate that just take an offset into the VM state.

Contrary to what one could expect, the size of L1 tables is not cluster aligned. So as we're writing whole sectors now instead of single entries, we need to ensure that the L1 table in memory is large enough; otherwise write would access memory after the end of the L1 table. Signed-off-by:

The really time consuming part of snapshotting is to adjust the reference count of all clusters. Currently after each adjusted cluster the refcount block is written to disk. Don't write each single byte immediately to disk but cache all writes to the refcount block and write them out once we're done with the block. Signed-off-by:

When using O_DIRECT, qcow2 snapshots didn't work any more for me. In the process of creating the snapshot, qcow2 tries to pwrite some new information (e.g. new L1 table) which will often end up being after the old end of the image file. Now pwrite tries to align things and reads the old contents of the file, read returns 0 because there is nothing to read after the end of file and pwrite is stuck in an endless loop. This patch allows to pread beyond the end of an image file. Whenever the given offset is after the end of the image file, the read succeeds and fills the buffer with zeros. Signed-off-by:

Problem: It is impossible to feed filenames with the character colon because qemu interprets such names as a protocol. For example filename scsi:0, is interpreted as a protocol by name "scsi". This patch allows user to espace colon characters. For example the above filename can now be expressed either as 'scsi\:0' or as file:scsi:0 anything following the "file:" tag is interpreted verbatin. However if "file:" tag is omitted then any colon characters in the string must be escaped using backslash. Here are couple of examples: scsi\:0\:abc is a local file scsi:0:abc http\://myweb is a local file by name http://myweb file:scsi:0:abc is a local file scsi:0:abc file:http://myweb is a local file by name http://myweb Signed-off-by:

The qcow2 source is now split into several more manageable files. During the conversion quite some functions that were static before needed to be changed to be global to make the source compile again. We were lucky enough not to get name conflicts with these additional global names, but they are not nice. This patch adds a qcow2_ prefix to all of the global functions in qcow2. Signed-off-by:

When we open a file, we first attempt to open it read-write, then fall back to read-only. Unfortunately we reuse the flags from the previous attempt, so both attempts try to open the file with write permissions, and fail. Fix by clearing the O_RDWR flag from the previous attempt. Signed-off-by:

Instead of declaring one BlockDriver for all host devices declared one for each type: a generic one for normal disk devices, a Linux floppy driver and a CDROM driver for Linux and FreeBSD. This gets rid of a lot of messy ifdefs and switching based on the type in the various removal device methods. block.c grows a new method to find the correct host device driver based on OS-sepcific criteria, which will later into the actual drivers in a later patch in this series.

Now that we have a separate aio pool structure we can remove those aio pool details from BlockDriver. Every driver supporting AIO now needs to declare a static AIOPool with the aiocb size and the cancellation method. This cleans up the current code considerably and will make it cleaner and more obvious to support two different aio implementations behind a single BlockDriver. Signed-off-by:

We do need hdev_create unconditionally on all platforms so that qemu-img create support for host device works on all platforms. Also relax the check to allow character devices in addition to block devices. On many Unix platforms block devices have buffered block nodes and unbuffered character device nodes, and on FreeBSD the block nodes don't even exist anymore. Also on Linux we do support the /dev/sgN scsi passthrough devices through the host device driver, and probably the old-style /dev/raw/rawN raw devices although I haven't tested that. Signed-off-by:
