2012-10-30Issue warning when deprecated drive parameter boot=on|off is usedJan Kiszka1-0/+6
Releases of qemu-kvm will be interrupted at qemu 1.3.0. Users should switch to plain qemu releases. To avoid breaking scenarios which are setup with command line options specific to qemu-kvm, port these switches from qemu-kvm to qemu.git. Port drive boot option. From the qemu-kvm original commit message: We do not want to maintain this option forever. It will be removed after a grace period of a few releases. So warn the user that this option has no effect and will become invalid soon. Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>
2012-10-24mirror: add support for on-source-error/on-target-errorPaolo Bonzini1-2/+12
Error management is important for mirroring; otherwise, an error on the target (even something as "innocent" as ENOSPC) requires to start again with a full copy. Similar to on_read_error/on_write_error, two separate knobs are provided for on_source_error (reads) and on_target_error (writes). The default is 'report' for both. The 'ignore' policy will leave the sector dirty, so that it will be retried later. Thus, it will not cause corruption.

2012-10-24block: introduce BLOCK_JOB_READY eventPaolo Bonzini1-14/+0
Even for jobs that need to be manually completed, management may want to take care itself of the completion, not requiring the user to issue a command to terminate the job. In this case we want to avoid that they poll us continuously, waiting for completion to become available. Thus, add a new event that signals the phase switch and the availability of the block-job-complete command.

2012-10-24block: add block-job-completePaolo Bonzini1-0/+13
While streaming can be dropped as soon as it progressed through the whole image, mirroring needs to be completed manually for two reasons: 1) so that management knows exactly when the VM switches to the target; 2) because for other use cases such as replication, we may leave the operation running for the whole life of the virtual machine. Add a new block job command that manually completes background operations. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com>
2012-10-24block: in commit, determine base image from the top imageJeff Cody1-10/+11
This simplifies some code and error checking, and also fixes a bug. bdrv_find_backing_image() should only be passed absolute filenames, or filenames relative to the chain. In the QMP message handler for block commit, when looking up the base do so from the determined top image, so we know it is reachable from top. Some of the error messages put out by block-commit have changed slightly, which causes 2 tests cases for block-commit to fail. This patch updates the test cases to look for the correct error output.

2012-09-28QAPI: add command for live block commit, 'block-commit'Jeff Cody1-0/+58
The command for live block commit is added, which has the following arguments: device: the block device to perform the commit on (mandatory) base: the base image to commit into; optional (if not specified, it is the underlying original image) top: the top image of the commit - all data from inside top down to base will be committed into base (mandatory for now; see note, below) speed: maximum speed, in bytes/sec Note: Eventually this command will support merging down the active layer, but that code is not yet complete. If the active layer is passed in as top, then an error will be returned. Once merging down the active layer is supported, the 'top' argument may become optional, and default to the active layer. The is done as a block job, so upon completion a BLOCK_JOB_COMPLETED will be emitted.

2012-08-10blockdev: flip default cache mode from writethrough to writebackPaolo Bonzini1-0/+1
Now all major device models (IDE, SCSI, virtio) can choose between writethrough and writeback at run-time, and virtio will even revert to writethrough if the guest is not capable of sending flushes. So we can change the default to writeback at last. Tested, for lack of a better idea, with a breakpoint on bdrv_open and all cache choices one by one.

2012-08-02Support 'help' as a synonym for '?' in command line optionsPeter Maydell1-5/+5
For command line options which permit '?' meaning 'please list the permitted values', add support for 'help' as a synonym, by abstracting the check out into a helper function. This change means that in some cases where we were being lazy in our string parsing, "?junk" will now be rejected as an invalid option rather than being (undocumentedly) treated the same way as "?". Update the documentation to use 'help' rather than '?', since '?' is a shell metacharacter and thus prone to fail confusingly if there is a single character filename in the current working directory and the '?' has not been escaped. It's therefore better to steer users towards 'help', though '?' is retained for backwards compatibility. We do not, however, update the output of the system emulator's -help (or any documentation autogenerated from the qemu-options.hx which is the source of the -help text) because libvirt parses our -help output and will break. At a later date when QEMU provides a better interface so libvirt can avoid having to do this, we can update the -help text too.

2012-07-17blockdev: Don't limit DriveInfo serial to 20 charactersMarkus Armbruster1-3/+1
All current users (IDE, SCSI and virtio-blk) happen to share this 20 characters limit. Still, it should be left to device models. They already enforce their limits. They have to, as the DriveInfo limit only affects legacy -drive serial=..., not the qdev properties. usb-storage, which doesn't limit serial number length, also uses DriveInfo for -usbdevice.

2012-07-17block: Geometry and translation hints are now useless, purge themMarkus Armbruster1-12/+2
There are two producers of these hints: drive_init() on behalf of -drive, and hd_geometry_guess(). The only consumer of the hint is hd_geometry_guess(). The callers of hd_geometry_guess() call it only when drive_init() didn't set the hints. Therefore, drive_init()'s hints are never used. Thus, hd_geometry_guess() only ever sees hints it produced itself in a prior call. Only the first call computes something, subsequent calls just repeat the first call's results. However, hd_geometry_guess() is never called more than once: the device models don't, and the block device is destroyed on unplug. Thus, dropping the repeat feature doesn't break anything now. If a block device wasn't destroyed on unplug and could be reused with a new device, then repeating old results would be wrong. Thus, dropping the repeat feature prevents future breakage. This renders the hints unused. Purge them from the block layer. Signed-off-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com>

2012-06-04qemu-option: qemu_opts_create(): use error_set()Luiz Capitulino1-1/+1
This commit converts qemu_opts_create() from qerror_report() to error_set(). Currently, most calls to qemu_opts_create() can't fail, so most callers don't need any changes. The two cases where code checks for qemu_opts_create() erros are: 1. Initialization code in vl.c. All of them print their own error messages directly to stderr, no need to pass the Error object 2. The functions opts_parse(), qemu_opts_from_qdict() and qemu_chr_parse_compat() make use of the error information and they can be called from HMP or QMP. In this case, to allow for incremental conversion, we propagate the error up using qerror_report_err(), which keeps the QError semantics Signed-off-by: Luiz Capitulino <lcapitulino@redhat.com> Reviewed-By: Laszlo Ersek <lersek@redhat.com>

2012-04-27block: use Error mechanism instead of -errno for block_job_create()Stefan Hajnoczi1-11/+5
The block job API uses -errno return values internally and we convert these to Error in the QMP functions. This is ugly because the Error should be created at the point where we still have all the relevant information. More importantly, it is hard to add new error cases to this case since we quickly run out of -errno values without losing information. Go ahead and use Error directly and don't convert later.

2012-03-12block: handle -EBUSY in bdrv_commit_all()Stefan Hajnoczi1-3/+6
Monitor operations that manipulate image files must not execute while a background job (like image streaming) is in progress. This prevents corruptions from happening when two pieces of code are manipulating the image file without knowledge of each other. The monitor "commit" command raises QERR_DEVICE_IN_USE when bdrv_commit() returns -EBUSY but "commit all" has no error handling. This is easy to fix, although note that we do not deliver a detailed error about which device was busy in the "commit all" case.

2012-02-29qapi: Introduce blockdev-group-snapshot-sync commandJeff Cody1-0/+131
This is a QAPI/QMP only command to take a snapshot of a group of devices. This is similar to the blockdev-snapshot-sync command, except blockdev-group-snapshot-sync accepts a list devices, filenames, and formats. It is attempted to keep the snapshot of the group atomic; if the creation or open of any of the new snapshots fails, then all of the new snapshots are abandoned, and the name of the snapshot image that failed is returned. The failure case should not interrupt any operations. Rather than use bdrv_close() along with a subsequent bdrv_open() to perform the pivot, the original image is never closed and the new image is placed 'in front' of the original image via manipulation of the BlockDriverState fields. Thus, once the new snapshot image has been successfully created, there are no more failure points before pivoting to the new snapshot. This allows the group of disks to remain consistent with each other, even across snapshot failures.

Unplugging a storage interface like virtio-blk causes the host block device to be deleted too. Long-running operations like block migration must take a DriveInfo reference to prevent the BlockDriverState from being freed. For image streaming we can do the same thing. Note that it is not possible to acquire/release the drive reference in block.c where the block job functions live because drive_get_ref()/drive_put_ref() are blockdev.c functions.
