The HMP command 'qemu-io' is a bit tricky because it wants to work on
the original BlockBackend, but additional permissions could be required.
The details are explained in a comment in the code, but in summary, just
request whatever permissions the current qemu-io command needs.

Management tools need to be able to know about every node in the graph
and need a way to address them. Changing the graph structure was okay
because libvirt doesn't really manage the node level yet, but future
libvirt versions need to deal with both new and old version of qemu.

This new option to blockdev-commit allows the client to set a node-name
for the automatically inserted filter driver, and at the same time
serves as a witness for a future libvirt that this version of qemu does
automatically insert a filter driver.

The correct permissions are relatively obvious here (and explained in

The mirror block job is mainly used for two different scenarios:
Mirroring to an otherwise unused, independent target node, or for active
commit where the target node is part of the backing chain of the source.

Similarly to the commit block job patch, we need to insert a new filter
node to keep the permissions correct during active commit.

Note that one change this implies is that job->blk points to
mirror_top_bs as its root now, and mirror_top_bs (rather than the actual
source node) contains the bs->job pointer. This requires qemu-img commit
to get the job by name now rather than just taking bs->job.

Backing files are somewhat special compared to other kinds of children
because they are attached and detached using bdrv_set_backing_hd()
rather than the normal set of functions, which does a few more things
like setting backing blockers, toggling the BDRV_O_NO_BACKING flag,
setting parent_bs->backing_file, etc.

These special features are a reason why change_parent_backing_link()
can't handle backing files yet. With abstracting the additional features
into .attach/.detach callbacks, we get a step closer to a function that

The backup block job doesn't have very complicated requirements: It

qemu-iotests 055 needs to be changed because it used a target which was

This is probably one of the most interesting conversions to the new
op blocker system because a commit block job intentionally leaves some
intermediate block nodes in the backing chain that aren't valid on their
own any more; only the whole chain together results in a valid view.

In order to provide the 'consistent read' permission to the parents of
the 'top' node of the commit job, a new filter block driver is inserted
above 'top' which doesn't require 'consistent read' on its backing
chain. Subsequently, the commit job can block 'consistent read' on all
intermediate nodes without causing a conflict.

blk_new_open() is a convenience function that processes flags rather
than QDict options as a simple way to just open an image file.

In order to keep it convenient in the future, it must automatically
request the necessary permissions. This can easily be inferred from the
flags for read and write, but we need another flag that tells us whether
to get the resize permission.

We can't just always request it because that means that no block jobs
can run on the resulting BlockBackend (which is something that e.g.
qemu-img commit wants to do), but we also can't request it never because
most of the .bdrv_create() implementations call blk_truncate().

The solution is to introduce another flag that is passed by all users
that want to resize the image.

new permission bitmask.

When attaching a node as a child to a new parent, the required and
shared permissions for this parent are checked against all other parents
of the node now, and an error is returned if there is a conflict.

This allows error returns to a function that previously always
succeeded, and the same is true for quite a few callers and their
callers. Converting all of them within the same patch would be too much,
so for now everyone tells that they don't need any permissions and allow
everyone else to do anything. This way we can use &error_abort initially
and convert caller by caller to pass actual permission requirements and
implement error handling.

the convert process is currently completely implemented with sync operations.
That means it reads one buffer and then writes it. No parallelism and each sync
request takes as long as it takes until it is completed.

This can be a big performance hit when the convert process reads and writes
to devices which do not benefit from kernel readahead or pagecache.
In our environment we heavily have the following two use cases when using
qemu-img convert.

a) reading from NFS and writing to iSCSI for deploying templates
b) reading from iSCSI and writing to NFS for backups

In both processes we use libiscsi and libnfs so we have no kernel cache.

This patch changes the convert process to work with parallel running coroutines
which can significantly improve performance for network storage devices:

qemu-img (master)
 nfs -> iscsi 22.8 secs
 nfs -> ram   11.7 secs
 ram -> iscsi 12.3 secs

qemu-img-async (8 coroutines, in-order write disabled)
 nfs -> iscsi 11.0 secs
 nfs -> ram   10.4 secs
 ram -> iscsi  9.0 secs

This patches introduces 2 new cmdline parameters. The -m parameter to specify
the number of coroutines running in parallel (defaults to 8). And the -W parameter to
allow qemu-img to write to the target out of order rather than sequential. This improves
performance as the writes do not have to wait for each other to complete.
