[Qemu-devel] [PATCH for-2.6 00/14] qemu-img map: Allow driver to return file of the allocated block

[Fam Zheng]

I stumbled upon this when looking at external bitmap formats.

Current "qemu-img map" command only displays filename if the data is allocated
in bs (bs->file) itself, or in the backing chain. Otherwise, it displays an
unfriendly error message:

    $ qemu-img create -f vmdk -o subformat=monolithicFlat /tmp/test.vmdk 1G

    $ qemu-img map /tmp/test.vmdk 
    Offset          Length          Mapped to       File
    qemu-img: File contains external, encrypted or compressed clusters.

This can be improved. This series extends the .bdrv_co_get_block_status
callback, to let block driver return the BDS of file; then updates all driver
to implement it; and lastly, it changes qemu-img to use this information in
"map" command:

    $ qemu-img map /tmp/test.vmdk 
    Offset          Length          Mapped to       File
    0               0x40000000      0               /tmp/test-flat.vmdk

    $ qemu-img map --output json /tmp/test.vmdk 
    [{"length": 1073741824, "start": 0, "zero": false, "offset": 0, "depth": 0,
      "file": "/tmp/test-flat.vmdk", "data": true}
    ]


Fam Zheng (14):
  block: Add "file" output parameter to block status query functions
  qcow: Assign bs->file->bs to file in qcow_co_get_block_status
  qcow2: Assign bs->file->bs to file in qcow2_co_get_block_status
  raw: Assign bs to file in raw_co_get_block_status
  iscsi: Assign bs to file in iscsi_co_get_block_status
  parallels: Assign bs->file->bs to file in
    parallels_co_get_block_status
  qed: Assign bs->file->bs to file in bdrv_qed_co_get_block_status
  sheepdog: Assign bs to file in sd_co_get_block_status
  vdi: Assign bs->file->bs to file in vdi_co_get_block_status
  vpc: Assign bs->file->bs to file in vpc_co_get_block_status
  vmdk: Return extent's file in bdrv_get_block_status
  qemu-img: In 'map', use QDict to generate JSON output
  qemu-img: In "map" output, support external file name
  iotests: Add "qemu-img map" test for VMDK extents
