[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 0/2] block/ssh: Implement .bdrv_refresh_filename()
Posted by Max Reitz 6 years, 9 months ago
This series implements .bdrv_refresh_filename() for the ssh block
driver, along with an appropriate .bdrv_dirname() so we don't chop off
query strings for backing files with relative filenames.

This series depends on my "block: Fix some filename generation issues"
series.

Based-on: 20190201192935.18394-1-mreitz@redhat.com


v2:
- No longer based on the libssh2 -> libssh patches
- Put /* and */ on their own lines to make checkpatch happy

Hey Max, I couldn't find a version of "block: Fix some filename
generation issues" that applies to qemu master.  Do you have a git
repo I could pull it from?

Ah, great, and I only sent it on Friday...

I pushed it here:

Thanks,

I have verified that this doesn't appear to break the existing driver:
ssh connections to block devices still work as well as they did before
(which is to say, not very well, I wish we would replace this driver
with Pino Toscano's reimplementation that uses libssh1).

However I wasn't sure how I could trigger the bdrv_refresh_filename
code path, so I don't think I tested that.

One test case goes like this:

Before this series:

$ ./qemu-img create -f qcow2 /tmp/base.qcow2 64M
$ ./qemu-img create -f qcow2 -b base.qcow2 /tmp/top.qcow2
$ ./qemu-img info ssh://localhost/tmp/top.qcow2
image: json:{"driver": "qcow2", "file": {"server.host": "localhost",
"server.port": "22", "driver": "ssh", "path": "/tmp/top.qcow2"}}
[...]
backing file: base.qcow2 (cannot determine actual path)
[...]
$ ./qemu-io ssh://localhost/tmp/top.qcow2
can't open device ssh://localhost/tmp/top.qcow2: Cannot generate a base
directory for ssh nodes


So the filename is weird and you cannot open overlays with relative
backing files.

After this series:

$ ./qemu-img info ssh://localhost/tmp/top.qcow2
image: ssh://maxx@localhost:22/tmp/top.qcow2
[...]
backing file: base.qcow2 (actual path:
ssh://maxx@localhost:22/tmp/base.qcow2)
$ ./qemu-io ssh://localhost/tmp/top.qcow2
qemu-io> quit

The filename looks better and the image is usable.

I have to use ?host_key_check=no because of my modern ssh server.  I
see this error (with your patch series applied):

$ ./qemu-img info 'ssh://localhost/tmp/top.qcow2?host_key_check=no'
image: ssh://rjones@localhost:22/tmp/top.qcow2?host_key_check=no
...
backing file: base.qcow2 (cannot determine actual path)

$ ./qemu-io 'ssh://localhost/tmp/top.qcow2?host_key_check=no'
can't open device ssh://localhost/tmp/top.qcow2?host_key_check=no: Cannot generate a base directory with host_key_check set

I can see the error message in block/ssh.c:

static char *ssh_bdrv_dirname(BlockDriverState *bs, Error **errp)
{
    if (qdict_haskey(bs->full_open_options, "host_key_check")) {
        /*
         * We cannot generate a simple prefix if we would have to
         * append a query string.
         */
        error_setg(errp,
                   "Cannot generate a base directory with host_key_check set");

It seems as if bdrv_dirname is mis-designed?  Either it shouldn't
assume dirname is always a strict prefix of a path, or g_strconcatdir
[from bdrv_make_absolute_filename] should really be a bdrv_* function
so that block devices can override it.

In any case I don't think this should hold up the patch, so:

We can always make it more complicated, yes. :-)

Thanks for having had a look at this series, Rich; I've applied it to my

Or maybe not.  It breaks iotests 104 (because the filename now includes
your username) and 207 (because the json:{} filename is a nice filename
now).  So I'll drop it and send a v3.
