Prior to the commit the following command lead to crash:

   ./qemu-io --image-opts -c 'write 0 512' \
   driver=blkdebug,align=4096,image.driver=null-co,image.size=512

It failes on assertion in bdrv_aligned_pwritev:
   "end_sector <= bs->total_sectors || child->perm & BLK_PERM_RESIZE"

The problem is obvious: 512 is aligned to 4096 and becomes larger than
file size. And the core bad thing is that file size is unaligned to
request_alignment.

Let's catch such case on bdrv_open_driver and fail.

I think we had a discussion on this before, but I can’t find it right
now.  (Although I think that had more to do with something in the
file-posix driver, because it wasn’t limited to alignments above 512.)

In any case, the file itself is totally valid.  Most importantly, qcow2
will regularly create files with unaligned file lengths.

So let me create a qcow2 image on a 4k-aligned device:

$ truncate 512M fs.img
$ sudo losetup -f --show -b 4096 fs.img
/dev/loop0
$ sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/loop0
[...]
$ sudo mount /dev/loop0 /mnt/tmp

$ sudo ./qemu-img create -f qcow2 /mnt/tmp/foo.qcow2 64M
Formatting '/mnt/tmp/foo.qcow2', fmt=qcow2 size=67108864
cluster_size=65536 lazy_refcounts=off refcount_bits=16
$ sudo ./qemu-io -t none -c quit /mnt/tmp/foo.qcow2
qemu-io: can't open device /mnt/tmp/foo.qcow2: File size is unaligned to
request alignment

Which is too bad.

What exactly is bad?

Is it correct that create succeeded? Without new error, how would qcow2 driver
read from unaligned tail of file-posix? It will crash, isn't it?

Hmm, it crashes only on write-part if don't have RESIZE permission.. So for 
qcow2
everything is OK.

And generic read don't care about reading past-EOF because of alignment, read 
is passed
to driver.



So the real solution would probably...  Be to align the file size up to
the alignment?

On creation, you mean?


Max

Note, that file size and request_alignment may become out of sync
later, so this commit is not full fix of the problem, but it's better
than nothing.
