Using the new 'bdrv_co_delete_file' interface, bdrv_delete_file
can be used in a way similar of the existing bdrv_create_file to
to clean up a created file.

The logic is also similar to what is already done in bdrv_create_file:
a qemu_coroutine is created if needed, a specialized function
bdrv_delete_co_entry is used to call the bdrv_co_delete_file
co-routine of the driver, if the driver implements it.

I was going to say that ENOENT is a weird error here, but I see it used
for !drv a few other places in block.c too, alongside EINVAL and
ENOMEDIUM. ENOMEDIUM loks like the most popular.

Please keep all errors negative (or at least consistent within a function).


I'm also wondering if we want a version of delete that doesn't try to
open a file directly -- i.e. a version that exists like this:

bdrv_co_delete_file(BlockDriverState *bs, Error **errp);

That simply dispatches based on bs->drv to the correct routine.

Then, you are free to have bdrv_delete_file handle the open (and let the
opening figure out what driver it needs), and just hand off the bds to
bdrv_co_delete_file.

I'm not the authority for block.c, though, so maaaybe I'm giving you bad
advice here. Kevin's away on PTO for a bit and gave you advice most
recently, so I might try to gently ask him for more feedback next week.

Didn't spend too much time thinking about it. I copied the same behavior 
from
bdrv_create_file:

---------

int bdrv_create_file(const char *filename, QemuOpts *opts, Error **errp)
{
     (...)

     drv = bdrv_find_protocol(filename, true, errp);
     if (drv == NULL) {
         return -ENOENT;
     }
-----

I can change to ENOMEDIUM if it's indeed more informative than ENOENT.

Got it. I'll fix it in the re-spin.

I appreciate. I'm not acquainted with the block code at all - I'm playing
by ear since the first version. Any tip is appreciated :)

Yes, this was definitely the idea I had in mind when I suggested that
bdrv_co_delete_file() should take a BDS.

And I think the callers that want to call this function (for failures
during image creation) all already have a BDS pointer, so nobody will
actually need the additional open.

const char *filename only works for the local filesystem (and even then
I think not for all filenames) and some URLs, so this is not what we
want to have in a public interface to identify an image file.

Hmpf, I understood your idead wrong in the v4 review and ended up
changing the co_routine (bdrv_co_delete_file) to use the BlockDriverState
instead of the public interface bdrv_delete_file that will be called 
inside crypto.c.

I'll respin it again with this change. Thanks for clarifying!

Yes, I see that I only really commented on the BlockDriver callback, so
it wasn't very clear what I actually meant. Sorry for that.
