No need for these assignments, state is 0-initialized. I wouldn't point that
out if Stefan wouldn't just have sent a patch which removed such assignments
in some other transaction preparation.

This seems a bit hard to read... Maybe an empty line after the "Since 1.1"
would help, but I'm not sure...

} }
So, about this patch in general: I know drive-backup works nearly the same
way. It starts block job in prepare(), which is aborted in abort(). But it
seems a bit like cheating to me. For me, a transaction is something which
you can start and if any of the operations cannot be executed (because its
preparation failed), all are aborted (that is, not even started). The
commit() part will really do the operation, and that will never fail because
prepare() has made sure it will not.
This isn't the case when starting block jobs in prepare(). If some other
operation's prepare() fails, some data may have been copied already, so you
can't really roll back the operation. It isn't so bad for drive-backup,
because you're normally writing to a new image, so having overwritten that
image by a bit isn't so bad. But with blockdev-backup, you're overwriting a
block device inside qemu, so overwriting it partially may actually be bad
(or even overwriting it completely; if a transaction fails, I'd expect the
operations to have done nothing at all).
I understand that drive-backup does the same thing already (although I don't
deem the impact there a bit less), so it may just be that my notion of
transactions is wrong.
However, in this state, where is the advantage of making this an operation
usable in a transaction? I can just start a number of blockdev-backup block
jobs manually and cancel them if anything goes wrong. There's no difference,
so I don't see the benefit of making it a transaction operation if a
transaction does not actually mean "Do not do anything if we don't know for
sure that all operations will complete successfully."
