      block: Add auto-read-only option · e35bdc12
      Kevin Wolf 提交于
      If a management application builds the block graph node by node, the
      protocol layer doesn't inherit its read-only option from the format
      layer any more, so it must be set explicitly.
      
      Backing files should work on read-only storage, but at the same time, a
      block job like commit should be able to reopen them read-write if they
      are on read-write storage. However, without option inheritance, reopen
      only changes the read-only option for the root node (typically the
      format layer), but not the protocol layer, so reopening fails (the
      format layer wants to get write permissions, but the protocol layer is
      still read-only).
      
      A simple workaround for the problem in the management tool would be to
      open the protocol layer always read-write and to make only the format
      layer read-only for backing files. However, sometimes the file is
      actually stored on read-only storage and we don't know whether the image
      can be opened read-write (for example, for NBD it depends on the server
      we're trying to connect to). This adds an option that makes QEMU try to
      open the image read-write, but allows it to degrade to a read-only mode
      without returning an error.
      
      The documentation for this option is consciously phrased in a way that
      allows QEMU to switch to a better model eventually: Instead of trying
      when the image is first opened, making the read-only flag dynamic and
      changing it automatically whenever the first BLK_PERM_WRITE user is
      attached or the last one is detached would be much more useful
      behaviour.
      
      Unfortunately, this more useful behaviour is also a lot harder to
      implement, and libvirt needs a solution now before it can switch to
      -blockdev, so let's start with this easier approach for now.
      
      Instead of adding a new auto-read-only option, turning the existing
      read-only into an enum (with a bool alternate for compatibility) was
      considered, but it complicated the implementation to the point that it
      didn't seem to be worth it.
