Okay, I started looking into how to handle scsi-generic I/O in the
new world order.

I think the best is to use the SG_IO ioctl instead of the read/write
interface as that allows us to support scsi passthrough on disk/cdrom
devices, too.  See Hannes patch on the kvm list from August for an
example.

Now that we always do ioctls we don't need another abstraction than
bdrv_ioctl for the synchronous requests for now, and for asynchronous
requests I've added a aio_ioctl abstraction keeping it simple.

Long-term we might want to move the ops to a higher-level abstraction
and let the low-level code fill out the request header, but I'm lazy
enough to leave that to the people trying to support scsi-passthrough
on a non-Linux OS.

Tested lightly by issuing various sg_ commands from sg3-utils in a guest
to a host CDROM device.

If a bounced vectored aio fails immediately (the inner aio submission
returning NULL) then the bounce handler erronously returns an aio
request which will never be completed (and which crashes when cancelled).

Fix by detecting that the inner request has failed and propagating the
error.

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.

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.

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.

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

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

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?

'num_free_bytes' is the number of non-allocated bytes below highest-allocation.
It's useful, together with the highest-allocation, to figure out how
fragmented the image is, and how likely it will run out-of-space soon.

For example when the highest allocation is high (almost end-of-disk), but 
many bytes (clusters) are free, and can be re-allocated when neeeded, than
we know it's probably not going to reach end-of-disk-space soon.

Most devices that are capable of DMA are also capable of scatter-gather.
With the memory mapping API, this means that the device code needs to be
able to access discontiguous host memory regions.

For block devices, this translates to vectored I/O.  This patch implements
an aynchronous vectored interface for the qemu block devices.  At the moment
all I/O is bounced and submitted through the non-vectored API; in the future
we will convert block devices to natively support vectored I/O wherever
possible.

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).

This patch introduces a new file, qemu-tool.c which contains enough for

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.
