PATCH v8 1/5 block: check for existing device IDs in external_snapshot_prepare()

In reply to Alberto Garcia

The 'snapshot-node-name' parameter of blockdev-snapshot-sync allows setting the node name of the image that is going to be created.

Before creating the image, external_snapshot_prepare() checks that the name is not already being used. The check is however incomplete since it only considers existing node names, but node names must not clash with device IDs either because they share the same namespace.

If the user attempts to create a snapshot using the name of an existing device for the 'snapshot-node-name' parameter the operation will eventually fail, but only after the new image has been created.

This patch replaces bdrv_find_node() with bdrv_lookup_bs() to extend the check to existing device IDs, and thus detect possible name clashes before the new image is created.

PATCH v8 2/5 block: rename BlockdevSnapshot to BlockdevSnapshotSync

In reply to Alberto Garcia

We will introduce the 'blockdev-snapshot' command that will require its own struct for the parameters, so we need to rename this one in order to avoid name clashes.

PATCH v8 3/5 block: support passing 'backing': '' to 'blockdev-add'

In reply to Alberto Garcia

Passing an empty string allows opening an image but not its backing file. This was already described in the API documentation, only the implementation was missing.

This is useful for creating snapshots using images opened with blockdev-add, since they are not supposed to have a backing image before the operation.

v8 cover Add 'blockdev-snapshot' command

This series adds a new 'blockdev-snapshot' command, that is similar to 'blockdev-snapshot-sync' but takes references to two existing block devices.

This finally applies (and works) cleanly on master. Max's patch to allow creating BlockDriverState trees without a BlockBackend is now available as be4b67bc7d99da26b7878f7f45370f50a3bd4af5.

Regards,

Berto

v8:
- Rebase on top of the current master
- Patch 4: state->new_bs->backing_hd is now state->new_bs->backing

v7: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-block/2015-10/msg00273.html
- Rebase on top of the current master. qmp_marshal_input_blockdev_snapshot is renamed to qmp_marshal_blockdev_snapshot in order to make it build.
- New patch to use bdrv_lookup_bs() instead of bdrv_find_node() in external_snapshot_prepare(). This way, if the user attempts to use blockdev-snapshot-sync using an existing device ID in the snapshot-node-name parameter, the code will detect the error before the new image is created.

v6: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-block/2015-09/msg00575.html
- Update documentation and parameter names following Eric's
suggestions: 'device' -> 'node', 'snapshot' -> 'overlay'.
- Rebased on top of Max's "BlockBackend and media" v5

v5: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-block/2015-09/msg00483.html
- Don't delete the 'backing' option if it contains something different from an empty string.
- Rebase on top of the current master.

v4: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-block/2015-09/msg00372.html
- Implement the support for 'backing': '', drop 'ignore-backing', and update iotest 085 accordingly.
- Include sample 'blockdev-add' call in the 'blockdev-snapshot' documentation.
- Clarify that the snapshot must not have a backing file in the BlockdevSnapshot documentation.
- Update error message ("...node name already existing" -> "...exists").

v3: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-block/2015-09/msg00272.html
- Add 'ignore-backing' field to BlockdevOptionsGenericCOWFormat. This allows opening images but not their backing images.
- Check for op blockers in the snapshot node and make sure that it doesn't have any backing image.
- Remove extra check for the existence of the snapshot node:
bdrv_open() already does that.
- Extend iotest 085 to add tests for 'blockdev-snapshot'.
- Replace local_err with errp in some places where the former is unnecessary.
- Update command description.
- Add 'since' tag to the 'blockdev-snapshot' field in TransactionAction.

v2: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-block/2015-09/msg00094.html
- Add 'blockdev-snapshot' command instead of allowing passing options to 'blockdev-snapshot-sync'.
- Rename BlockdevSnapshot to BlockdevSnapshotSync

v1: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-block/2015-08/msg00236.html

PATCH v8 4/5 block: add a 'blockdev-snapshot' QMP command

One of the limitations of the 'blockdev-snapshot-sync' command is that it does not allow passing BlockdevOptions to the newly created snapshots, so they are always opened using the default values.

Extending the command to allow passing options is not a practical solution because there is overlap between those options and some of the existing parameters of the command.

This patch introduces a new 'blockdev-snapshot' command with a simpler
interface: it just takes two references to existing block devices that will be used as the source and target for the snapshot.

Since the main difference between the two commands is that one of them creates and opens the target image, while the other uses an already opened one, the bulk of the implementation is shared.

This series adds a new 'blockdev-snapshot' command, that is similar to 'blockdev-snapshot-sync' but takes references to two existing block devices.

This finally applies (and works) cleanly on master. Max's patch to allow creating BlockDriverState trees without a BlockBackend is now available as be4b67bc7d99da26b7878f7f45370f50a3bd4af5.

Thanks, applied to the block branch.
