This patch series contains the initial VHDX log parsing, replay, write support, and image creation.
=== v6 changes === https://github.com/codyprime/qemu-kvm-jtc/tree/vhdx-write-v6-upstream Rebased to latest qemu/master: Patch 16/20: .bdrv_create() propagates Error, and bdrv_unref() used instead of bdrv_delete(). Patch 17 & 18 are already included in another series: [PATCH v3 0/3] qemu-iotests with sample images, vhdx test, cleanup They are included here to provide a base for patches 19 & 20. If the above series is applied before this series, then patches 17 and 18 can be ignored. Patch 19/20: In qemu-io tests _make_test_img(), filter out vhdx-specific options for .bdrv_create(). Patch 20/20: Add VHDX write test case to 064. === v5 changes === v5 is also available for testing from: https://github.com/codyprime/qemu-kvm-jtc/tree/vhdx-write-v5-upstream Most of the patches from v4 -> v5 are the same, but there are a few differences and a few new patches. Here is a summary of which patches are different and/or new: Patch highlights: Patch 7 just some minor code movement, in prep for changes in patch 8 Patch 8 incorporates review feedback from Stefan, for the previous Patch 7 in v4. Patch 9 adds region checking for log, region table, and metadata tables, per suggestion from Stefan. Patch 10 minor change from changes made in 8/16 (vhdx_guid_is_zero() is gone) Patch 12 is just some minor housekeeping, to get rid of bit shifting that doesn't need to happen. === v4 changes === v4 patches are available from github as well, on branch vhdx-write-v4-upstream: https://github.com/codyprime/qemu-kvm-jtc/tree/vhdx-write-v4-upstream https://github.com/codyprime/qemu-kvm-jtc.git Those in the midst of reviewing v3, don't fear - the only changes with v4 is the addition of patches on the end of the series (patches 10-13). These patches enable creating VHDX images. Image files created have been (briefly & lightly) tested on Hyper-V running on Windows Server 2012. Some of the new patches could be squashed with earlier patches in the series, but I refrained from doing so, since some of the patches have already been reviewed, and others are in the midst of review. I want to make it as easy as possible on those currently reviewing. There is nothing critical that needs to be pushed into the earlier patches. New patches: Patch 10: Breaks out some more endian translation functions (likely squashable into patch 5) Patch 11: Break out some operations into seperate helper functions Patch 12: More comment typos and header fixes in vhdx.h (likely squashable into patch 1) Patch 13: Adds .bdrv_create() for vhdx. VHDX images are can be created for Fixed or Dynamic images. Patches 1-9 are unchanged. === end v4 changelog === === v3 changes === Thank you Kevin & Stefan for the feedback; incoporated in v3: Patch 1: --- nil --- Patch 2: * use sizeof(crc) instead of 4 * remove outdated comment * use sizeof(MSGUID) instead of 16 * direct assignment of guid structs rather than memcpy * rename 'rw' to 'generate_data_write_guid' * use offsetof() instead of 4 * comment typos * add missing error checking * MSGUID is now QEMU_PACKED * configure enable for vhdx is now correct and not braindead Patch 3: --- nil --- Patch 4: * code style fixes * removed unused struct (VHDXLogEntryInfo) Patch 5: * more direct assignment of guid rather than memcpy * order of operation in export/import the same now * became less generous with newlines (bah-humbug!) Patch 6: * more direct assignment of guid rather than memcpy * add error check in vhdx_user_visible_write(), now returns int Patch 7: * check error return now of vhdx_user_visible_write() Patch 8: * check error return now of vhdx_user_visible_write() * vhdx_log_write_sectors() uses bdrv_pwrite() vs bdrv_pwrite_sync() * more direct assignment of guid rather than memcpy * use offsetof() instead of 4 Patch 9: --- nil --- === end v3 changelog === v2 changes: Incorporated Fam's review feedback - Thank you Fam for the feedback === end v2 changelog === This will allow an existing log in a VHDX image to be replayed (e.g., a VHDX image from a Hyper-V host that crashed). In addition, metadata writes are enabled through the log. This allows write support to be enabled for VHDX, as the BAT can be updated safely via the log journal.
