  • Add specialized block driver scsi generic API (Avi Kivity) ...
    7d780669 
    When a scsi device is backed by a scsi generic device instead of an
ordinary host block device, the block API is abused in a couple of annoying
ways:

 - nb_sectors is negative, and specifies a byte count instead of a sector count
 - offset is ignored, since scsi-generic is essentially a packet protocol

This overloading makes hacking the block layer difficult.  Remove it by
introducing a new explicit API for scsi-generic devices.  The new API
is still backed by the old implementation, but at least the users are
insulated.

  • monitor: Rework API (Jan Kiszka) ...
    376253ec 
    Refactor the monitor API and prepare it for decoupled terminals:
term_print functions are renamed to monitor_* and all monitor services
gain a new parameter (mon) that will once refer to the monitor instance
the output is supposed to appear on. However, the argument remains
unused for now. All monitor command callbacks are also extended by a mon
parameter so that command handlers are able to pass an appropriate
reference to monitor output services.

For the case that monitor outputs so far happen without clearly
identifiable context, the global variable cur_mon is introduced that
shall once provide a pointer either to the current active monitor (while
processing commands) or to the default one. On the mid or long term,
those use case will be obsoleted so that this variable can be removed
again.

Due to the broad usage of the monitor interface, this patch mostly deals
with converting users of the monitor API. A few of them are already
extended to pass 'mon' from the command handler further down to internal
functions that invoke monitor_printf.

At this chance, monitor-related prototypes are moved from console.h to
a new monitor.h. The same is done for the readline API.

  • monitor: Rework modal password input (Jan Kiszka) ...
    bb5fc20f 
    Currently, waiting for the user to type in some password blocks the
whole VM because monitor_readline starts its own I/O loop. And this loop
also screws up reading passwords from virtual console.

Patch below fixes the shortcomings by using normal I/O processing also
for waiting on a password. To keep to modal property for the monitor
terminal, the command handler is temporarily replaced by a password
handler and a callback infrastructure is established to process the
result before switching back to command mode.

  • monitor: Rework early disk password inquiry (Jan Kiszka) ...
    c0f4ce77 
    Reading the passwords for encrypted hard disks during early startup is
broken (I guess for quiet a while now):
 - No monitor terminal is ready for input at this point
 - Forcing all mux'ed terminals into monitor mode can confuse other
   users of that channels

To overcome these issues and to lay the ground for a clean decoupling of
monitor terminals, this patch changes the initial password inquiry as
follows:
 - Prevent autostart if there is some encrypted disk
 - Once the user tries to resume the VM, prompt for all missing
   passwords
 - Only resume if all passwords were accepted

    If the backing file is encrypted, 'info block' currently does not report
the disk as encrypted. Fix this by using the standard API to check disk
encryption mode. Moreover, switch to a canonical output format.

  • Fix CVE-2008-0928 - insufficient block device address range checking (Anthony Liguori) ...
    71d0770c 
    Introduce a growable flag that's set by bdrv_file_open().  Block devices should
never be growable, only files that are being used by block devices.

I went through Fabrice's early comments about the patch that was first applied.
While I disagree with that patch, I also disagree with Fabrice's suggestion.

There's no good reason to do the checks in the block drivers themselves.  It
just increases the possibility that this bug could show up again.  Since we're
calling bdrv_getlength() to determine the length, we're giving the block drivers
a chance to chime in and let us know what range is valid.

Basically, this patch makes the BlockDriver API guarantee that all requests are
within 0..bdrv_getlength() which to me seems like a Good Thing.

What do others think?

  • Expand cache= option and use write-through caching by default ...
    9f7965c7 
    This patch changes the cache= option to accept none, writeback, or writethough
to control the host page cache behavior.  By default, writethrough caching is
now used which internally is implemented by using O_DSYNC to open the disk
images.  When using -snapshot, writeback is used by default since data integrity
it not at all an issue.

cache=none has the same behavior as cache=off previously.  The later syntax is
still supported by now deprecated.  I also cleaned up the O_DIRECT
implementation to avoid many of the #ifdefs.

  • Add bdrv_flush_all() ...
    c6ca28d6 
    This patch adds a bdrv_flush_all() function.  It's necessary to ensure that all
IO operations have been flushed to disk before completely a live migration.

N.B. we don't actually use this now.  We really should flush the block drivers
using an live savevm callback to avoid unnecessary guest down time.

  • Refactor AIO to allow multiple AIO implementations ...
    a76bab49 
    This patch refactors the AIO layer to allow multiple AIO implementations.  It's
only possible because of the recent signalfd() patch.  

Right now, the AIO infrastructure is pretty specific to the block raw backend.
For other block devices to implement AIO, the qemu_aio_wait function must
support registration.  This patch introduces a new function,
qemu_aio_set_fd_handler, which can be used to register a file descriptor to be
called back.  qemu_aio_wait() now polls a set of file descriptors registered
with this function until one becomes readable or writable.

This patch should allow the implementation of alternative AIO backends (via a
thread pool or linux-aio) and AIO backends in non-traditional block devices
(like NBD).

  • Use common objects for qemu-img and qemu-nbd ...
    03ff3ca3 
    Right now, we sprinkle #if defined(QEMU_IMG) && defined(QEMU_NBD) all over the
code.  It's ugly and causes us to have to build multiple object files for
linking against qemu and the tools.

This patch introduces a new file, qemu-tool.c which contains enough for
qemu-img, qemu-nbd, and QEMU to all share the same objects.

This also required getting qemu-nbd to be a bit more Windows friendly.  I also
changed the Windows block-raw to use normal IO instead of overlapping IO since
we don't actually do AIO yet on Windows.  I changed the various #if 0's to
 #if WIN32_AIO to make it easier for someone to eventually fix AIO on Windows.

After this patch, there are no longer any #ifdef's related to qemu-img and
qemu-nbd.

  • Use signalfd() to work around signal/select race ...
    baf35cb9 
    This patch introduces signalfd() to work around the signal/select race in
checking for AIO completions.  For platforms that don't support signalfd(), we
emulate it with threads.

There was a long discussion about this approach.  I don't believe there are any
fundamental problems with this approach and I believe eliminating the use of
signals is a good thing.

I've tested Windows and Linux using Windows and Linux guests.  I've also checked
for disk IO performance regressions.

  • Fix windows build ...
    cd01b4a3 
    Right now, the Windows build is broken because of NBD.  Using a mingw32 cross
compiler is also badly broken.

This patch fixes the Windows build by stubbing out NBD support until someone
fixes it for Windows.  It also santizing the mingw32 cross compiler support
by replacing the --enable-mingw32 option with a compiler check to determine
if we're on windows or not.

Also remove the weird SDL pseudo-detection for mingw32 using a cross compiler.
The hardcoded sdl-config name is seemly arbitrary.  If you cross compiler SDL
correctly and modify your PATH variable appropriately, it will Just Work when
cross compiling.

The audio driver detection is also broken for cross compiling so you have to
specify the audio drivers explicitly for now.
