[Qemu-block] [PATCH v2 00/13] bdrv_reopen() overhaul, part 1


From: Kevin Wolf
Subject: [Qemu-block] [PATCH v2 00/13] bdrv_reopen() overhaul, part 1
Date: Wed, 10 Jun 2015 15:46:54 +0200

This is v2 of the first part of the series "[PATCH 00/34] block: Cache
mode for children, reopen overhaul and more". Review of v1 turned up
some larger issues that need to be addressed as a prerequisite for some
patches (essentially bdrv_swap() removal is needed), so I decided to
split the series in multiple parts, even if this means that we commit
series with no immediate effect. This series is almost like that.

>From the items in the original cover letter, this series still contains:

- A common infrastructure for opening child nodes, so that...
- ...the block layer knows all the children of a BDS now
- ...VMDK allows passing options to individual extents
- A node knows from which other node it inherited flags and options;
  this is respected when recalculating flags and options for child nodes
  on bdrv_reopen() (i.e. if the node didn't inherit originally from a
  parent node, it now doesn't on reopen either)

Left for part 2 and 3 of the split series are:

- You can now use node name references for backing files
- bdrv_reopen() accepts options now (and qcow2 makes use of it)
- And finally you can set cache mode options for backing files and other
  children now (and the reopen behaviour even makes sense)


Changes in v2:
- Patch 1:
  Added a real commit message [Eric]
  Fixed function comment [Eric]
  Handle overflows [Max]

- Patch 2: Fixed function comment [Eric]

- New patch 3: Added test cases for new QDict functions [Eric]

- Patch 7 (was 6): Fixed opts leak [Max]

- Patch 8 (was 7):
  Improved comment [Eric]
  Fixed coding style [Max]

- New patches 9 and 10: bdrv_swap() needs to fix up all list heads of
  non-empty lists in BlockDriverState. Add bdrv_drain() to ensure that
  the tracked requests list is empty; add a macro for fixing up
  non-empty lists.

- Patch 11 (was 8):
  Fixed bdrv_swap() for bs->children (fix up list head)
  Remove entries from bs->children list before free()ing them
