This patch series is intended to introduce QEMU Backup tool.
qemu-backup will be a command-line tool for performing full and
incremental disk backups on running VMs. It is intended as a
reference implementation for management stack and backup developers
to see QEMU's backup features in action.
This patch series contains three patches,
               1) QEMU Backup command line tool.
               2) Test for full backup.
               3) Manpage for the tool.
v3:
* Added versioning in config file
* Replace location by qemu-img convert in restore
* Removed incremental backup documentation from manpage

Ishani Chugh (3):
  backup: QEMU Backup Tool
  Test for full Backup
  Add manpage for QEMU Backup Tool

qemu-backup will be a command-line tool for performing full and
incremental disk backups on running VMs. It is intended as a
reference implementation for management stack and backup developers
to see QEMU's backup features in action. The tool writes details of
guest in a configuration file and the data is retrieved from the file
while creating a backup. The location of config file can be set as an
environment variable QEMU_BACKUP_CONFIG. The usage is as follows:

Add a guest
python qemu-backup.py guest add --guest <guest_name> --qmp <socket_path>

Add a drive for backup in a specified guest
python qemu-backup.py drive add --guest <guest_name> --id <drive_id> [--target <target_file_path>]

Create backup of the added drives:
python qemu-backup.py backup --guest <guest_name>

List all guest configs in configuration file:
python qemu-backup.py guest list

Restore operation
python qemu-backup.py restore --guest <guest-name>

Remove a guest
python qemu-backup.py guest remove --guest <guest_name>

This patch is the test for full backup implementation in Backup tool.
The test employs two basic substests:
1) Backing up an empty guest and comparing it with base image.
2) Writing a pattern to the guest, creating backup and comparing
   with the base image.

qemu-backup will be a command-line tool for performing full and
incremental disk backups on running VMs. It is intended as a
reference implementation for management stack and backup developers
to see QEMU's backup features in action. This commit is an
initial implementation of manpage listing the commands which the
backup tool will support. The manpage will be built along with other
docs when configure is provided with --enable-docs flag in the
location contrib/backup in build directory.

+@itemize
+@item qemu-backup guest add --guest guestname --qmp socketpath
+This command adds a guest to the configuration file given its path to qmp socket.
+
+example:
+qemu-backup guest add --id=fedora --qmp=unix:/var/run/qemu/fedora.sock
+
+qemu-backup guest add --id=fedora --qmp=tcp:localhost:4444
+
+@item qemu-backup guest list
+This commands lists the names of guests which are added to configuration file.
+
+@item qemu-backup drive add --guest guestname --id driveid --target target
+This command adds different drives for backup in a particular guest by giving the name of drive to be backed up and target imagefile in which we want to store the drive backup.
+
+example: qemu-backup drive add --guest=fedora --id=root --target=/backup/root.img
+
+@item qemu-backup drive add --all --guest guestname --destination destination
+This command adds all the drives of the guest for backup other than CDROM drive and read-only drives. Here all the backup drives will have the same names as original drives and target will be the destination folder.
+
+example: qemu-backup drive add --all --guest fedora --destination =/backup/fedora/
+
+@item qemu-backup drive list --guest guestname
+This commands gives the names of the drive present in a guest which are added for backup.
+
+example: qemu-backup drive list --guest=fedora
+
+@item qemu-backup backup --guest guestname
+
+This command makes the backup of the drives, in their respective given destinations. The ids of drive and their destinations are taken from the configuration file.
+
+example: qemu-backup backup --guest=fedora
+
+@item qemu-backup restore --guest guestname
+This command is needed if we want to restore the backup. It will list the commands to be run for performing the same but will not perform any action.
+
+example: qemu-backup restore --guest=fedora
+
+@item qemu-backup guest remove --guest guestname
+This command removes the guest from the configuration file.
+
+example: qemu-backup guest remove --guest=fedora
+
+@item qemu-backup drive remove --guest guestname --id driveid
+This command helps remove a drive which is set for backup in configuration of given host.
+
+example: drive remove --guest=fedora --id=root
+
+@item A full backup can be performed by following the given steps:
+
+Perform a full backup of 'vm001', which has one drive:
+
+qemu-backup guest add --guest vm001 --qmp /path/to/vm001.sock
+
+qemu-backup add --id drive0 --guest vm001 --target /backups/vm001-drive0.img

I suggest as your commit message here, something like:

"backup: Add QEMU backup tool"

A good commit message should say what applying the patch will do:

"What will happen if I apply this patch?"
"It will 'Add QEMU backup tool'"

This should probably be organized by subcommand, so:

guest add
guest remove
guest list

drive add

backup

restore

> python qemu-backup.py drive add --guest <guest_name> --id <drive_id> [--target <target_file_path>]

Looks good, but the man page should perhaps be patch 01 instead of 03 so
that the usage can be reviewed outside of the commit message.

Similar problem as with other commands:

jhuston@probe (review) ~/s/q/c/backup> ./qemu-backup.py drive add
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./qemu-backup.py", line 343, in <module>

  File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/posixpath.py", line 54, in isabs
    return s.startswith('/')
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'startswith'

This errors out if you don't tell it what drive you want to add.


Meanwhile,

jhuston@probe (review) ~/s/q/c/backup> ./qemu-backup.py drive add --id
foobar
Cannot find specified guest

Should probably error out because you didn't set the guest name at all.

this function crashes if you do not provide a guest_name, it should
report an error instead.

./qemu-backup.py guest add
./qemu-backup.py guest add --guest foobar

both crash, please correct.

./qemu-backup.py guest add --guest foobar --qmp foobar

also crashes, please error gracefully if you cannot parse the QMP
argument as a valid socket.

If you don't supply a guest name, you get the "Guest Not present" error
message, but really we should error out as if it was a parsing error.

This will print out "general" too, which I think should be exempted from
this list, as it is not actually a guest!

I propose something like this:

[general]
guests=ishanivm1 ishanivm2 ishanivm3

[guest:ishanivm]
foo=bar

[guest:ishanivm2]
foo=bar2

and so on.

("What happens if someone tries to name a guest 'guest:foobar'? Well,
then the section just gets named 'guest:guest:foobar' and we go about
our happy way.")

Whenever a guest is added or removed, you update the list and delete or
add the corresponding section appropriately.

The following is a pretty big block without much visual structure to
guide the eye. I'd recommend:

(1) Splitting this out into a helper function so the overall flow of
main() is easier to spot at a glance, and
(2) Adding a few comments to just visually break up the monotony.

Try "Manage guest(s)" as a shorthand, or just write "add, remove, or
list guests."

"Adds (or) removes (and) lists" is an awkward construct.

maybe something like:
       parser = buildMyParser()

?

Looking good overall; my advice is to try testing your tool by
intentionally omitting items and giving it bad information. Make sure
that any arguments marked as mandatory in the manpage/parser are
actually mandatory and try to eliminate stack trace dumps from your
python tool.

I stopped a little short of reviewing the entire tool this time, so
there may be more cases that are similar to the other issues I've
already pointed out.

Thanks!
