block: Introduce .bdrv_parse_filename callback

If a driver needs structured data and not just a string, it can provide
a .bdrv_parse_filename callback now that parses the command line string
into separate options. Keeping this separate from .bdrv_open_filename...

block: Allow omitting the file name when using driver-specific options

After this patch, using -drive with an empty file name continues to open
the file if driver-specific options are used. If no driver-specific
options are specified, the semantics stay as it was: It defines a drive...

nbd: Keep hostname and port separate

The NBD block supports an URL syntax, for which a URL parser returns
separate hostname and port fields. It also supports the traditional qemu
syntax encoded in a filename. Until now, after parsing the URL to get
each piece of information, a new string is built to be fed to socket...

block: add bdrv_get_aio_context()

For now bdrv_get_aio_context() is just a stub that calls
qemu_aio_get_context() since the block layer is currently tied to the
main loop AioContext.

Add the stub now so that the block layer can begin accessing its
AioContext....

threadpool: drop global thread pool

Now that each AioContext has a ThreadPool and the main loop AioContext
can be fetched with bdrv_get_aio_context(), we can eliminate the concept
of a global thread pool from thread-pool.c.

The submit functions must take a ThreadPool* argument....

coroutine: use AioContext for CoQueue BH

CoQueue uses a BH to awake coroutines that were made ready to run again
using qemu_co_queue_next() or qemu_co_queue_restart_all(). The BH
currently runs in the iothread AioContext and would break coroutines
that run in a different AioContext....

threadpool: add thread_pool_new() and thread_pool_free()

ThreadPool is tied to an AioContext through its event notifier, which
dictates in which AioContext the work item's callback function will be
invoked.

In order to support multiple AioContexts we need to support multiple...

aio: add a ThreadPool instance to AioContext

This patch adds a ThreadPool to AioContext. It's possible that some
AioContext instances will never use the ThreadPool, so defer creation
until aio_get_thread_pool().

The reason why AioContext should have the ThreadPool is because the...

block: implement BDRV_O_UNMAP

It is better to present homogeneous hardware independent of the storage
technology that is chosen on the host, hence we make discard a host
parameter; the user can choose whether to pass it down to the image
format and protocol, or to ignore it....

qemu-img: add compressed clusters to BlockFragInfo

Show how many clusters are compressed. This can be used to monitor how
many compressed clusters remain and whether to recompress the image.

block: Add synchronous wrapper for bdrv_co_is_allocated_above

There's no synchronous wrapper for bdrv_co_is_allocated_above function
so it's not possible to check for sector allocation in an image with
a backing file.

qemu-img: find the image end offset during check

This patch adds the support for reporting the image end offset (in
bytes). This is particularly useful after a conversion (or a rebase)
where the destination is a block device in order to find the first
unused byte at the end of the image....

aio: convert aio_poll() to g_poll(3)

AioHandler already has a GPollFD so we can directly use its
events/revents.

Add the int pollfds_idx field to AioContext so we can map g_poll(3)
results back to AioHandlers.

Reuse aio_dispatch() to invoke handlers after g_poll(3)....

Introduce a new option "adapter_type" when converting to vmdk images.
It can be one of the following: ide (default), buslogic, lsilogic
or legacyESX (according to the vmdk spec from vmware).

In case of a non-ide adapter, heads is set to 255 instead of the 16....

mirror: allow customizing the granularity

The desired granularity may be very different depending on the kind of

aio_poll() must return true if any work is still pending, even if it
