This series is in response to Max pointing out that you cannot use 'convert' for an encrypted target image.

The 'convert' and 'dd' commands need to first create the image and then open it. The bdrv_create() method takes a set of options for creating the image, which let us provide a key-secret for the encryption key. When the commands then open the new image, they don't provide any options, so the image is unable to be opened due to lack of encryption key. It is also not possible to use the --image-opts argument to provide structured options in the target image name - it must be a plain filename to satisfy the bdrv_create() API contract.

This series addresses these problems to some extent

- Adds a new --target-image-opts flag which is used to say that the target filename is using structured options. It is *only* permitted to use this when -n is also set. ie the target image must be pre-created so convert/dd don't need to run bdrv_create().

- When --target-image-opts is not used, add special case code that identifies options passed to bdrv_create() named "*key-secret" and adds them to the options used to open the new image

In future it is desirable to make --target-image-opts work even when -n is *not* given. This requires considerable work to create a new bdrv_create() API impl.

The first patch fixes a bug in the 'dd' command while the second adds support for the missing '--object' arg to 'dd', allowing it to reference secrets when opening files. The last two patches implement the new features described above for the 'convert' command.

NB, this is now rebased against the block-next branch from

git://github.com/XanClic/qemu.git

Changed in v7:

- Drop the (accidentally included) revert patch (Eric)

Changed in v6:

- Fix misc typos (Fam)
- Resolve messy conflicts wrt max/block-next (Max)

Changed in v5:

- Fix return value (Max)
- Misc doc changes (Max)
- Use error_abort (Max)

Changed in v4:

- Refactor img_open_new_file in terms of img_open_file (Kevin)

Changed in v3:

- Drop all patches affecting the 'dd' command except for the clear bug fix and the --object support. They can be re-considered once dd is rewritten to run ontop of convert.
- Use consistent return/goto style in dd command (Max)
- Fix error reporting when using compressed image and skip-create (Max)
- Unconditionally create QDict when open files (Max)

Changed in v2:

- Replace dd -n flag with support for conv=nocreat,notrunc
- Misc typos (Eric, Fam)

Daniel P. Berrange (4):
qemu-img: add support for --object with 'dd' command
qemu-img: fix --image-opts usage with dd command
qemu-img: introduce --target-image-opts for 'convert' command
qemu-img: copy *key-secret opts when opening newly created files

PATCH v7 1/4 qemu-img: add support for --object with 'dd' command

The qemu-img dd command added --image-opts support, but missed the corresponding --object support. This prevented passing secrets (eg auth passwords) needed by certain disk images.

PATCH v7 2/4 qemu-img: fix --image-opts usage with dd command

In reply to Daniel P. Berrange

The --image-opts flag can only be used to affect the parsing of the source image. The target image has to be specified in the traditional style regardless, since it needs to be passed to the bdrv_create() API which does not support the new style opts.

PATCH v7 3/4 qemu-img: introduce --target-image-opts for 'convert' command

In reply to Daniel P. Berrange

The '--image-opts' flag indicates whether the source filename includes options. The target filename has to remain in the plain filename format though, since it needs to be passed to bdrv_create(). When using --skip-create though, it would be possible to use image-opts syntax. This adds --target-image-opts to indicate that the target filename includes options. Currently this mandates use of the --skip-create flag too.

PATCH v7 4/4 qemu-img: copy *key-secret opts when opening newly created files

In reply to Daniel P. Berrange

The qemu-img dd/convert commands will create an image file and then try to open it. Historically it has been possible to open new files without passing any options. With encrypted files though, the *key-secret options are mandatory, so we need to provide those options when opening the newly created file.
