[Qemu-block] [PATCH v6 00/13] Fix transactional snapshot with dataplane


From: Fam Zheng
Subject: [Qemu-block] [PATCH v6 00/13] Fix transactional snapshot with dataplane and NBD export
Date: Thu, 21 May 2015 14:42:50 +0800

v6: Patch 13: unset block after bdrv_swap().

Reported by Paolo.

Unlike the iohandler in main loop, iothreads currently process the event
notifier used by virtio-blk ioeventfd in nested aio_poll. This is dangerous
without proper protection, because guest requests could sneak to block layer
where they mustn't.

For example, a QMP transaction may involve multiple bdrv_drain_all() in
handling the list of AioContext it works on. If an aio_poll in one of the
bdrv_drain_all() happens to process a guest VQ kick, and dispatches the
ioeventfd event to virtio-blk, a new guest write is then submitted, and voila,
the transaction semantics is violated.

This series avoids this problem by disabling virtio-blk handlers during
bdrv_drain_all() and transactions.

- Patches 1~3 add the block layer op blocker change notifier code.
- Patches 4,5 secure virtio-blk dataplane.
- Patch 6 protects virtio-scsi dataplane.
- Patch 7 secures nbd export.
- Patch 8~11 protect each transaction type from being voilated by new IO
  generated in nested aio_poll.
- Patch 12 protects bdrv_drain and bdrv_drain_all.
- Patch 13 protects mirror complete.


Fam Zheng (13):
  block: Add op blocker type "device IO"
  block: Add op blocker notifier list
  block-backend: Add blk_op_blocker_add_notifier
  virtio-blk: Move complete_request to 'ops' structure
  virtio-blk: Don't handle output when there is "device IO" op blocker
  virtio-scsi-dataplane: Add "device IO" op blocker listener
  nbd-server: Clear "can_read" when "device io" blocker is set
  blockdev: Block device IO during internal snapshot transaction
  blockdev: Block device IO during external snapshot transaction
  blockdev: Block device IO during drive-backup transaction
  blockdev: Block device IO during blockdev-backup transaction
  block: Block "device IO" during bdrv_drain and bdrv_drain_all
  block/mirror: Block "device IO" during mirror exit
