qemu: let blockinfo reuse virStorageSource
Right now, grabbing blockinfo always calls stat on the disk, then
opens the image to determine the capacity, using a throw-away
virStorageSourcePtr. This has a couple of drawbacks:
1. We are calling stat and opening a file on every invocation of
the API. However, there are cases where the stats should NOT be
changing between successive calls (if a domain is running, no
one should be changing the physical size of a block device or raw
image behind our backs; capacity of read-only files should not
be changing; and we are the gateway to the block-resize command
to know when the capacity of read-write files should be changing).
True, we still have to use stat in some cases (a sparse raw file
changes allocation if it is read-write and the amount of holes is
changing, and a read-write qcow2 image stored in a file changes
physical size if it was not fully pre-allocated). But for
read-only images, even this should be something we can remember
from the previous time, rather than repeating every call.
2. We want to enhance the power of virDomainListGetStats, by
sharing code. But we already have a virStorageSourcePtr for
each disk, and it would be easier to reuse the common structure
than to have to worry about the one-off virDomainBlockInfoPtr.
While this patch does not optimize reuse of information in point
1, it does get us closer to being able to do so; by updating a
structure that survives between consecutive calls.
* src/util/virstoragefile.h (_virStorageSource): Add physical, to
mirror virDomainBlockInfo; rearrange fields to match public struct.
(virStorageSourceCopy): Copy the new field.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDomainGetBlockInfo): Store into
storage source, then copy to block info.
