Commit e50caf4a5c ("tracing: convert documentation to rST")
converted docs/devel/tracing.txt to docs/devel/tracing.rst.
We still have several references to the old file, so let's fix them
with the following command:
sed -i s/tracing.txt/tracing.rst/ $(git grep -l docs/devel/tracing.txt)

We spell out sub/dir/ in sub/dir/trace-events' comments pointing to
source files. That's because when trace-events got split up, the
comments were moved verbatim.
Delete the sub/dir/ part from these comments. Gets rid of several
misspellings.

Almost all trace-events point to docs/devel/tracing.txt in a comment
right at the beginning. Touch up the ones that don't.
[Updated with Markus' new commit description wording.

No real reason to keep using the callback based mechanism here when the
rest of the file-posix driver is coroutine based. Changing it brings
ioctls more in line with how other request types work.

It is a common requirement for virtual machine to send persistent
reservations, but this currently requires either running QEMU with
CAP_SYS_RAWIO, or using out-of-tree patches that let an unprivileged
QEMU bypass Linux's filter on SG_IO commands.
As an alternative mechanism, the next patches will introduce a
privileged helper to run persistent reservation commands without
expanding QEMU's attack surface unnecessarily.
The helper is invoked through a "pr-manager" QOM object, to which
file-posix.c passes SG_IO requests for PERSISTENT RESERVE OUT and
PERSISTENT RESERVE IN commands. For example:
$ qemu-system-x86_64
-device virtio-scsi \
-object pr-manager-helper,id=helper0,path=/var/run/qemu-pr-helper.sock
-drive if=none,id=hd,driver=raw,file.filename=/dev/sdb,file.pr-manager=helper0
-device scsi-block,drive=hd
or:
$ qemu-system-x86_64
-device virtio-scsi \
-object pr-manager-helper,id=helper0,path=/var/run/qemu-pr-helper.sock
-blockdev node-name=hd,driver=raw,file.driver=host_device,file.filename=/dev/sdb,file.pr-manager=helper0
-device scsi-block,drive=hd
Multiple pr-manager implementations are conceivable and possible, though
only one is implemented right now. For example, a pr-manager could:
- talk directly to the multipath daemon from a privileged QEMU
(i.e. QEMU links to libmpathpersist); this makes reservation work
properly with multipath, but still requires CAP_SYS_RAWIO
- use the Linux IOC_PR_* ioctls (they require CAP_SYS_ADMIN though)
- more interestingly, implement reservations directly in QEMU
through file system locks or a shared database (e.g. sqlite)
