[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 08/13] block: Allow changing the backing file on


From: Alberto Garcia
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 08/13] block: Allow changing the backing file on reopen
Date: Tue, 12 Mar 2019 18:48:47 +0200

This patch allows the user to change the backing file of an image that
is being reopened. Here's what it does:

 - In bdrv_reopen_prepare(): check that the value of 'backing' points
   to an existing node or is null. If it points to an existing node it
   also needs to make sure that replacing the backing file will not
   create a cycle in the node graph (i.e. you cannot reach the parent
   from the new backing file).

 - In bdrv_reopen_commit(): perform the actual node replacement by
   calling bdrv_set_backing_hd().

There may be temporary implicit nodes between a BDS and its backing
file (e.g. a commit filter node). In these cases bdrv_reopen_prepare()
looks for the real (non-implicit) backing file and requires that the
'backing' option points to it. Replacing or detaching a backing file
is forbidden if there are implicit nodes in the middle.

Although x-blockdev-reopen is meant to be used like blockdev-add,
there's an important thing that must be taken into account: the only
way to set a new backing file is by using a reference to an existing
node (previously added with e.g. blockdev-add).  If 'backing' contains
a dictionary with a new set of options ({"driver": "qcow2", "file": {
... }}) then it is interpreted that the _existing_ backing file must
be reopened with those options.
