[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 42/55] block: Clean up bdrv_flush_all()


From: Markus Armbruster
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH 42/55] block: Clean up bdrv_flush_all()
Date: Wed, 20 Jul 2011 18:24:16 +0200

Change (!bdrv_is_removable(bs) || bdrv_is_inserted(bs)) to just
bdrv_is_inserted().  Rationale:

    The value of bdrv_is_removable(bs) matters only when
    bdrv_is_inserted(bs) is false.

    bdrv_is_inserted(bs) is true when bs is open (bs->drv != NULL) and
    not an empty host drive (CD-ROM or floppy).

    Therefore, bdrv_is_removable(bs) matters only when:

    1. bs is not open
       old: may call bdrv_flush(bs), which does nothing
       new: won't call

    2. bs is an empty host drive
       old: may call bdrv_flush(bs), which calls driver method
            raw_flush(), which calls fdatasync() or equivalent, which
            can't do anything useful while the drive is empty
       new: won't call

Result is bs->drv && !bdrv_is_read_only(bs) && bdrv_is_inserted(bs).
bdrv_is_inserted(bs) implies bs->drv.  Drop the redundant test.
