Hi all!
We need to lock qcow2 mutex on accessing in-image metadata, especially
on updating this metadata. Let's implement it.
v3:
01: add John's r-b
02: - fix bdrv_remove_persistent_dirty_bitmap return value
- drop extra zeroing of ret in qcow2_remove_persistent_dirty_bitmap
03: add John's r-b
Vladimir Sementsov-Ogievskiy (3):
block: move bdrv_can_store_new_dirty_bitmap to block/dirty-bitmap.c
block/dirty-bitmap: return int from
bdrv_remove_persistent_dirty_bitmap
block/qcow2: proper locking on bitmap add/remove paths

Thanks a lot!
Hmm, I don't think so, as I used to think that returning int for errp-functions
is better anyway..
ret = f(..., errp);
if (ret < 0) {
}
vs
f(..., errp);
if (*errp) {
}
Hmmm... The latter just looks unfamiliar in comparison with "if (ret < 0)".. But
if we anyway going to convert a lot of "if (*local_err)" to "if (*errp)", it will
become familiar.. And the latter may save 6 characters in a line with function call,
which may save the whole line in some places.
So I don't know.
returning two errors is not very good, we don't have convention for it actually.
if I have int ret = f(..., errp), what should I report?
error_report_err_errno(ret, errp), or just error_report_err(errp), assuming errp
contains the whole information?
Still, sometimes we need to distinguish one error code from another, and we can't
check errp for such thing..

OK, well, no problem. I'm not very picky about the error propagation
paradigm; since you are investing your effort in it lately I'm just
going to trust your judgment here.

OK, I just wasn't sure the details of your series, actually -- I just
wanted to know if we'd need to make changes, but if not, that's easier :)
