The sslverify setting is supposed to turn off all TLS certificate
checks in libcurl. However because of the way we use it, it only
turns off peer certificate authenticity checks
(CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER). This patch makes it also turn off the check
that the server name in the certificate is the same as the server
you're connecting to (CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST).
We can use Google's server at 8.8.8.8 which happens to have a bad TLS
certificate to demonstrate this:
$ ./qemu-img create -q -f qcow2 -b 'json: { "file.sslverify": "off", "file.driver": "https", "file.url": "https://8.8.8.8/foo" }' /var/tmp/file.qcow2
qemu-img: /var/tmp/file.qcow2: CURL: Error opening file: SSL: no alternative certificate subject name matches target host name '8.8.8.8'
Could not open backing image to determine size.
With this patch applied, qemu-img connects to the server regardless of
the bad certificate:
$ ./qemu-img create -q -f qcow2 -b 'json: { "file.sslverify": "off", "file.driver": "https", "file.url": "https://8.8.8.8/foo" }' /var/tmp/file.qcow2
qemu-img: /var/tmp/file.qcow2: CURL: Error opening file: The requested URL returned error: 404 Not Found
(The 404 error is expected because 8.8.8.8 is not actually serving a
file called "/foo".)
Of course the default (without sslverify=off) remains to always check
the certificate:
$ ./qemu-img create -q -f qcow2 -b 'json: { "file.driver": "https", "file.url": "https://8.8.8.8/foo" }' /var/tmp/file.qcow2
qemu-img: /var/tmp/file.qcow2: CURL: Error opening file: SSL: no alternative certificate subject name matches target host name '8.8.8.8'
Could not open backing image to determine size.

When we converted rbd to get rid of the older key/value-centric
encoding format, we broke compatibility with image files with backing
file strings encoded in the old format.
This leaves a bit of an ugly conundrum, and a hacky solution.
If the initial attempt to parse the "proper" options fails, it assumes
that we may have an older key/value encoded filename. Fall back to
attempting to parse the filename, and extract the required options from
it. If that fails, pass along the original error message.
We do not support mixed modern usage alongside legacy keyvalue pair
usage.
A deprecation warning has been added, although care should be taken
when actually deprecating since the impact is not limited to
commandline or qapi usage, but also opening existing images.

blockdev-mirror with the same node for source and target segfaults

that this is an active commit. When adding the intermediate nodes with
block_job_add_bdrv(), it starts the iteration through the subchain with
the backing file of source, though, so it never reaches target and
instead runs into NULL at the base.
While we could fix that by starting with source itself, there is no
point in allowing mirroring a node into itself and I wouldn't be

Commit 6fccbb475b fixed a bug caused by
QEMU attempting to remove a throttle group member with no pending
requests but an active timer set. This was the result of a previous
bdrv_drained_begin() call processing the throttled requests but
leaving the timer untouched.
Although the commit does solve the problem, the situation shouldn't
happen in the first place. If we try to drain a throttle group member
which has a timer set, we should cancel the timer instead of ignoring
it.

In the throttling code after an I/O request has been completed the
next one is selected from a different member using a round-robin
algorithm. This ensures that all members get a chance to finish their
pending I/O requests.
However, if a group member has its I/O limits disabled (because it's
being drained) then we should always give it priority in order to have
all its pending requests finished as soon as possible.
If we don't do this we could have a member in the process of being
drained waiting for the throttled requests of other members, for which
the I/O limits still apply.
This can have additional consequences: if we're running in qtest mode
(with QEMU_CLOCK_VIRTUAL) then timers can only fire if we advance the
clock manually, so attempting to drain a block device can hang QEMU in
the BDRV_POLL_WHILE() loop at the end of bdrv_do_drained_begin().

The BLKDISCARD ioctl doesn't guarantee that the discarded blocks read as
all-zero afterwards, so don't try to abuse it for zero writing. We try
to only use this if BLKDISCARDZEROES tells us that it is safe, but this
is unreliable on older kernels and a constant 0 in newer kernels. In
other words, this code path is never actually used with newer kernels,
so we don't even try to unmap while writing zeros.
This patch removes the abuse of discard for writing zeroes from
file-posix and instead adds a new function that uses interfaces that are
actually meant to deallocate and zero out at the same time. Only if
those fail, it falls back to zeroing out without unmap. We never fall
back to a discard operation any more that may or may not result in
zeros.

Throttle groups consist of members sharing one throttling state
(including bps/iops limits). Round-robin scheduling is used to ensure
fairness. If a group member already has a timer pending then other
groups members do not schedule their own timers. The next group member
will have its turn when the existing timer expires.
A hang may occur when a group member leaves while it had a timer
scheduled. Although the code carefully removes the group member from
the round-robin list, it does not schedule the next member. Therefore
remaining members continue to wait for the removed member's timer to
expire.
This patch schedules the next request if a timer is pending.
Unfortunately the actual bug is a race condition that I've been unable
to capture in a test case.

Adjust each caller of raw_open_common to specify if they are expecting
host and character devices or not. Tighten expectations of file types upon
open in the common code and refuse types that are not expected.
This has two effects:
(1) Character and block devices are now considered deprecated for the
'file' driver, which expects only S_IFREG, and
(2) no file-posix driver (file, host_cdrom, or host_device) can open
directories now.
I don't think there's a legitimate reason to open directories as if
they were files. This prevents QEMU from opening and attempting to probe
a directory inode, which can break in exciting ways. One of those ways
is lseek on ext4/xfs, which will return 0x7fffffffffffffff as the file
size instead of EISDIR. This can coax QEMU into responding with a
confusing "file too big" instead of "Hey, that's not a file".

Fleecing scheme works as follows: we want a kind of temporary snapshot
of active drive A. We create temporary image B, with B->backing = A.
Then we start backup(sync=none) from A to B. From this point, B reads
as point-in-time snapshot of A (A continues to be active drive,
accepting guest IO).
This scheme needs some additional synchronization between reads from B
and backup COW operations, otherwise, the following situation is
theoretically possible:
(assume B is qcow2, client is NBD client, reading from B)
1. client starts reading and take qcow2 mutex in qcow2_co_preadv, and
goes up to l2 table loading (assume cache miss)
2) guest write => backup COW => qcow2 write =>
try to take qcow2 mutex => waiting
3. l2 table loaded, we see that cluster is UNALLOCATED, go to
"case QCOW2_CLUSTER_UNALLOCATED" and unlock mutex before
bdrv_co_preadv(bs->backing, ...)
4) aha, mutex unlocked, backup COW continues, and we finally finish
guest write and change cluster in our active disk A
5. actually, do bdrv_co_preadv(bs->backing, ...) and read
_new updated_ data.
To avoid this, let's make backup writes serializing, to not intersect
with reads from B.
Note: we expand range of handled cases from (sync=none and
B->backing = A) to just (A in backing chain of B), to finally allow
safe reading from B during backup for all cases when A in backing chain
of B, i.e. B formally looks like point-in-time snapshot of A.

Serialized writes should be used in copy-on-write of backup(sync=none)
for image fleecing scheme.
We need to change an assert in bdrv_aligned_pwritev, added in
28de2dcd88. The assert may fail now, because call to
wait_serialising_requests here may become first call to it for this
request with serializing flag set. It occurs if the request is aligned
(otherwise, we should already set serializing flag before calling
bdrv_aligned_pwritev and correspondingly waited for all intersecting
requests). However, for aligned requests, we should not care about
outdating of previously read data, as there no such data. Therefore,
let's just update an assert to not care about aligned requests.
