As of version 3, the qcow2 file format supports different widths for refcount entries, ranging from 1 to 64 bit (only powers of two). Currently, qemu only supports 16 bit, which is the only width supported by version 2 (compat=0.10) images.
This series adds support to qemu for all other valid refcount orders. This is mainly done by adding two function pointers into the BDRVQcowState structure for reading and writing refcount values independently of the current refcount entry width; all in-memory refcount arrays (mostly cached refcount blocks) now are void pointers and are accessed through these functions alone. Thanks to previous work of making the qemu code agnostic of e.g. the number of refcount entries per refcount block, the rest is fairly trivial. The most complex patch in this series is patch 23 which implements changing the refcount order through qemu-img amend. To test different refcount widths, simply invoke the qemu-iotests check program with -o refcount_width=${your_desired_width}. The final test in this series adds some tests for operations which do not work with certain refcount orders and for refcount order amendment. v5: - Patch 5: Use absolute value for addend instead of the two's complement for negative values [Stefan] - Patch 6: - Conflicts due to the changes in patch 5 - Dropped the "if (ret >= 0)" -> "if (ret == 0)" hunk; since the update_refcount() return value was never touched in this series there is no point in modifying the callers' checks for their return value [Eric] - Patch 9: Use DIV_ROUND_UP() [Eric] - Patch 16: Rebase conflicts due to Fam's patch removing trailing whitespace in all qemu-iotests/*.out files (7486458c33cd3e5714368f181a5fea39c54444ca); I kept the R-bs because these are only trailing whitespace conflicts in *.out files which are really trivial. There are two not-so-trivial conflicts: Two hunks are missing from v5 which were part of v4 which did nothing but remove trailing whitespace. Obviously those are no longer necessary, so removing these hunks was actually trivial after all. git-backport-diff against v4: Key: [----] : patches are identical [####] : number of functional differences between upstream/downstream patch [down] : patch is downstream-only The flags [FC] indicate (F)unctional and (C)ontextual differences, respectively 001/26:[----] [--] 'qcow2: Add two new fields to BDRVQcowState' 002/26:[----] [--] 'qcow2: Add refcount_bits to format-specific info' 003/26:[----] [--] 'qcow2: Do not return new value after refcount update' 004/26:[----] [--] 'qcow2: Only return status from qcow2_get_refcount' 005/26:[0040] [FC] 'qcow2: Use unsigned addend for update_refcount()' 006/26:[0028] [FC] 'qcow2: Use 64 bits for refcount values' 007/26:[----] [--] 'qcow2: Respect error in qcow2_alloc_bytes()' 008/26:[----] [--] 'qcow2: Refcount overflow and qcow2_alloc_bytes()' 009/26:[0002] [FC] 'qcow2: Helper for refcount array reallocation' 010/26:[----] [-C] 'qcow2: Helper function for refcount modification' 011/26:[----] [--] 'qcow2: More helpers for refcount modification' 012/26:[----] [--] 'qcow2: Open images with refcount order != 4' 013/26:[----] [--] 'qcow2: refcount_order parameter for qcow2_create2' 014/26:[----] [--] 'qcow2: Use symbolic macros in qcow2_amend_options' 015/26:[----] [--] 'iotests: Prepare for refcount_bits option' 016/26:[0126] [FC] 'qcow2: Allow creation with refcount order != 4' 017/26:[----] [--] 'progress: Allow regressing progress' 018/26:[----] [--] 'block: Add opaque value to the amend CB' 019/26:[----] [-C] 'qcow2: Use error_report() in qcow2_amend_options()' 020/26:[----] [--] 'qcow2: Use abort() instead of assert(false)' 021/26:[----] [--] 'qcow2: Split upgrade/downgrade paths for amend' 022/26:[----] [--] 'qcow2: Use intermediate helper CB for amend' 023/26:[----] [--] 'qcow2: Add function for refcount order amendment' 024/26:[----] [--] 'qcow2: Invoke refcount order amendment function' 025/26:[----] [--] 'qcow2: Point to amend function in check' 026/26:[----] [--] 'iotests: Add test for different refcount widths' Max Reitz (26): qcow2: Add two new fields to BDRVQcowState qcow2: Add refcount_bits to format-specific info qcow2: Do not return new value after refcount update qcow2: Only return status from qcow2_get_refcount qcow2: Use unsigned addend for update_refcount() qcow2: Use 64 bits for refcount values qcow2: Respect error in qcow2_alloc_bytes() qcow2: Refcount overflow and qcow2_alloc_bytes() qcow2: Helper for refcount array reallocation qcow2: Helper function for refcount modification qcow2: More helpers for refcount modification qcow2: Open images with refcount order != 4 qcow2: refcount_order parameter for qcow2_create2 qcow2: Use symbolic macros in qcow2_amend_options iotests: Prepare for refcount_bits option qcow2: Allow creation with refcount order != 4 progress: Allow regressing progress block: Add opaque value to the amend CB qcow2: Use error_report() in qcow2_amend_options() qcow2: Use abort() instead of assert(false) qcow2: Split upgrade/downgrade paths for amend qcow2: Use intermediate helper CB for amend qcow2: Add function for refcount order amendment qcow2: Invoke refcount order amendment function qcow2: Point to amend function in check iotests: Add test for different refcount widths block.c | 4 +- block/qcow2-cluster.c | 24 +- block/qcow2-refcount.c | 1054 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------- block/qcow2.c | 286 ++++++++--- block/qcow2.h | 23 +- include/block/block.h | 4 +- include/block/block_int.h | 4 +- qapi/block-core.json | 5 +- qemu-img.c | 5 +- tests/qemu-iotests/007 | 3 + tests/qemu-iotests/015 | 2 + tests/qemu-iotests/026 | 7 + tests/qemu-iotests/029 | 2 + tests/qemu-iotests/049.out | 108 ++-- tests/qemu-iotests/051 | 3 + tests/qemu-iotests/058 | 2 + tests/qemu-iotests/060.out | 1 + tests/qemu-iotests/061.out | 14 +- tests/qemu-iotests/065 | 23 +- tests/qemu-iotests/067 | 2 + tests/qemu-iotests/067.out | 5 + tests/qemu-iotests/079 | 10 +- tests/qemu-iotests/079.out | 38 +- tests/qemu-iotests/080 | 2 + tests/qemu-iotests/082.out | 48 +- tests/qemu-iotests/085.out | 38 +- tests/qemu-iotests/089 | 2 + tests/qemu-iotests/089.out | 2 + tests/qemu-iotests/108 | 2 + tests/qemu-iotests/112 | 296 +++++++++++ tests/qemu-iotests/112.out | 155 ++++++ tests/qemu-iotests/common.filter | 3 +- tests/qemu-iotests/group | 1 + util/qemu-progress.c | 3 +- 34 files changed, 1782 insertions(+), 399 deletions(-) create mode 100755 tests/qemu-iotests/112 create mode 100644 tests/qemu-iotests/112.out -- 1.9.3
