[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 3/6] block/dirty-bitmap: change semantics of enabled predicate

[John Snow]

Currently, enabled means something like "the status of the bitmap
is ACTIVE." After this patch, it should mean exclusively: "This
bitmap is recording guest writes, and is allowed to do so."

In many places, this is how this predicate was already used.
We'll allow users to call user_locked if they're really curious about
finding out if the bitmap is in use by an operation.

To accommodate this, modify the create_successor routine to now
explicitly disable the parent bitmap at creation time.


Justifications:

1. bdrv_dirty_bitmap_status suffers no change from the lack of
   1:1 parity with the new predicates because of the order in which
   the predicates are checked. This is now only for compatibility.

2. bdrv_set_dirty_bitmap is only used by mirror, which does not use
   disabled bitmaps -- all of these writes are internal usages.
   Therefore, we should allow writes even in the disabled state.
   The condition is removed.

3. bdrv_reset_dirty_bitmap Similarly, this is only used internally by
   mirror and migration. In these contexts it is always enabled anyway,
   but our API does not need to enforce this.

4. bdrv_set_dirty() is unchanged: pre-patch, it was skipping bitmaps that were
   disabled or had a successor, while post-patch it is only skipping bitmaps
   that are disabled. To accommodate this, create_successor now ensures that
   any bitmap with a successor is explicitly disabled.

5. qcow2_store_persistent_dirty_bitmaps: This only ever wanted to check if the
   bitmap was enabled or not. Theoretically if we save during an operation,
   this now gets set as enabled instead of disabled, but this cannot happen
   in practice because jobs must be finished before we close the disk.

6. block_dirty_bitmap_enable_prepare only ever cared about the
   literal bit, and already checked for user_locked beforehand.

7. block_dirty_bitmap_disable_prepare ditto as above.

8. init_dirty_bitmap_migration also already checks user_locked,
   so this call can be a simple enabled/disabled check.
