[Qemu-block] [PATCH v3 36/44] hmp: Request permissions in qemu-io

[Kevin Wolf]

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.

+     * Notably absent: Proper permission management. This is sad, but it seems
+     * almost impossible to achieve without changing the semantics and thereby
+     * limiting the use cases of the qemu-io HMP command.
+     *
+     * In an ideal world we would unconditionally create a new BlockBackend for
+     * qemuio_command(), but we have commands like 'reopen' and want them to
+     * take effect on the exact BlockBackend whose name the user passed instead
+     * of just on a temporary copy of it.
+     *
+     * Another problem is that deleting the temporary BlockBackend involves
+     * draining all requests on it first, but some qemu-iotests cases want to
+     * issue multiple aio_read/write requests and expect them to complete in
+     * the background while the monitor has already returned.
+     *
+     * This is also what prevents us from saving the original permissions and
+     * restoring them later: We can't revoke permissions until all requests
+     * have completed, and we don't know when that is nor can we really let
+     * anything else run before we have revoken them to avoid race conditions.
+     *
+     * What happens now is that command() in qemu-io-cmds.c can extend the
+     * permissions if necessary for the qemu-io command. And they simply stay
+     * extended, possibly resulting in a read-only guest device keeping write
+     * permissions. Ugly, but it appears to be the lesser evil.
