Peter Krempa	2c4c347c4b	qemu: block: Use 'auto-read-only' instead of 'read-only' for backing chain ... To allow using -blockdev with blockjobs QEMU needs to reopen files in read-write mode when modifying the backing chain. To achieve this we need to use 'auto-read-only' for the backing files rather than the normal 'read-only' property. That way qemu knows that the files need to be reopened. Note that the format drivers (e.g. qcow2) are still opened with the read-only property enabled when being a member of the backing chain since they are supposed to be immutable unless a block job is started. QEMU v4.0 (since commit 23dece19da4) allows also dynamic behaviour for auto-read-only which allows us to use sVirt as we only grant write permissions to files when doing a blockjob.

Peter Krempa	b8240fe704	qemu: block: Don't nest storage layer properties into format layer ... Reference the storage via node name rather than inlining it. This is the approach that will be used with -blockdev/blockdev-add since it allows more control and is more future proof.

Peter Krempa	c4f0e16f5a	tests: qemublock: Add tests for all other format without special options ... Similarly to the 'raw' case add tests for bochs, cloop, dmg, ploop, vdi vhd, and vpc. Covering all supported non-backing formats. Note that the JSON name for 'ploop' maps to 'parallels' and 'vhd' maps to 'vhdx'. Files added here would result in the followint configs: file-bochs-noopts.xml: -drive file=/path/to/i.img,format=bochs,if=none,id=drive-dummy -device virtio-blk-pci,scsi=off,drive=drive-dummy,id=dummy file-cloop-noopts.xml: -drive file=/path/to/i.img,format=cloop,if=none,id=drive-dummy -device virtio-blk-pci,scsi=off,drive=drive-dummy,id=dummy file-dmg-noopts.xml: -drive file=/path/to/i.img,format=dmg,if=none,id=drive-dummy -device virtio-blk-pci,scsi=off,drive=drive-dummy,id=dummy file-ploop-noopts.xml: -drive file=/path/to/i.img,format=ploop,if=none,id=drive-dummy -device virtio-blk-pci,scsi=off,drive=drive-dummy,id=dummy file-vdi-noopts.xml: -drive file=/path/to/i.img,format=vdi,if=none,id=drive-dummy -device virtio-blk-pci,scsi=off,drive=drive-dummy,id=dummy file-vhd-noopts.xml: -drive file=/path/to/i.img,format=vhd,if=none,id=drive-dummy -device virtio-blk-pci,scsi=off,drive=drive-dummy,id=dummy file-vpc-noopts.xml: -drive file=/path/to/i.img,format=vpc,if=none,id=drive-dummy -device virtio-blk-pci,scsi=off,drive=drive-dummy,id=dummy Signed-off-by: Peter Krempa <pkrempa@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: John Ferlan <jferlan@redhat.com>	2018-05-07 15:53:12 +02:00
