[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v5 1/7] qcow2: Assert that cluster operations are aligned
Posted by Eric Blake 8 years, 11 months ago
qcow2_discard_clusters() is set up to silently ignore sub-cluster
head or tail on unaligned requests.  However, it is easy to audit
the various callers: qcow2_snapshot_create() has always passed
aligned data since the call was introduced in 1ebf561;
qcow2_co_pdiscard() has passed aligned clusters since commit
ecdbead taught the block layer the preferred discard alignment (the
block layer can still pass sub-cluster values, but those are
handled directly in qcow2_co_pdiscard()); and qcow2_make_empty()
was fixed to pass aligned clusters in commit a3e1505.  Replace
rounding with assertions to hold us to the tighter contract,
eliminating the now-impossible case of an early exit for a
sub-cluster request.

qcow2_zero_clusters() has always been called with cluster-aligned
arguments from its lone caller qcow2_co_pwrite_zeroes() (like
qcow2_co_pdiscard(), the caller takes care of sub-cluster requests
from the block layer; and qcow2_zero_clusters() would have
misbehaved on unaligned requests), but it deserves the same
assertion for symmetry.

I don't think this is true for the very part in the image if the image
size isn't cluster aligned:

    ret = qcow2_discard_clusters(bs, start_sector * BDRV_SECTOR_SIZE,
                                 MIN(sector_step,
                                     bs->total_sectors - start_sector),
                                 QCOW2_DISCARD_SNAPSHOT, true);

sector_step is alright after commit a3e1505, but bs->total_sectors can
be unaligned.

The other callers look okay.

Maybe using s->cluster_sectors is nicer than doing the shift here. Not
too important, the code is replaced in the next patch anyway.

Indeed; a slight tweak to qemu-iotests/097 exposes the problem.  I'll
include that in my next spin (although I note that Dan has patches on
the list to split 097 into two tests, in order to give qcow coverage
rather than just qcow2).
