This series brings internal snapshot support at block devices level, now we
have two main methods to do snapshot: 1) backing chain and 2) internal one, and
3) Stefan's unmerged backing up approach. Compared with 1), internal snapshot
is faster in R/W/Delete. Compared with 3), it complete faster, take less space
in total, but take more space in local image. As a summary, When user want to
take a local snapshot quickly, it is encouraged to use internal snapshot when
possible for performance reason. If user want to duplicate or backup vm to
another place, it is encouraged to use backing up approach.
A full view may be: it can take snapshot by 1), 2), and the snapshot can
be exported to 3rd place. it can also directly export/backup data by 3).
export means transfering the data out of qemu/libvirt's scope, let 3rd party
take over.
host A backup server B
vm --------->
| backup
\|/ Data that can distinguish base/delta, disk/memory
snapshot v0 export
snapshot v1 --------->
Next steps to better full VM snapshot:
Add support to export internal snapshot data lively, possible use qemu-img
or qemu-nbd.
Better vmstate saving.
Note:
I think in most case, saving vmstate in an standalone file is better than
saving it inside qcow2, So suggest treat internal snapshot as block level
methods and not encourage user to savevm in qcow2 any more. We can
have "internal snapshot (or backing chain) + standing alone vmstate file" as
replacement.
Some details:
To avoid trouble, this serial have hide ID in interfaces, this make sure
no chaos of ID and name will be introduced by these interfaces.
There is one patch may be common to Pavel's savvm transaction, patch 4/11,
others are not quite related. Patch 4/11 will not set errp when no snapshot
find, since patch 7/11 need to distinguish real error case.
Thanks Kevin to give advisement about how add it in qmp_transaction, oldest
version comes drom Dietmar Maurer.
V2:
Add test case for it.
Address Kevin's comments:
04/12: use assert(id || name), instead of abort().
05/12: better snapshot_name_wellformed().
06/12: rename parameter *name to *id_or_name in
find_snapshot_by_id_or_name(), add {} for old code, add a macro in
qemu-common.h to avoid print NULL char*.
Address Fam Zheng's comments:
06/12: better error message.
08/12: better document and spell fix.
10/12, 11/12: rename the command and related function to
snapshot_blkdev_internal.
Stefan Hajnoczi (3):

It is not necessary to check that we can find a protocol block driver
since we create or open the image file. This produces the error that we
need anyway.
Besides, the QERR_INVALID_BLOCK_FORMAT is inappropriate since the
protocol is incorrect rather than the format.
Also drop an empty line between bdrv_open() and checking its return
value. This may be due to copy-pasting from earlier code that performed
other operations before handling errors.

The QMP 'transaction' command keeps a list of in-flight transactions.
The transaction state structure is called BlkTransactionStates even
though it only deals with a single transaction. The only plural thing
is the linked list of transaction states.
I find it confusing to call the single structure "States". This patch
renames it to "State", just like BlockDriverState is singular.

Some QMP 'transaction' types don't need to do anything on .commit().
Make .commit() optional just like .abort().
The "drive-backup" action will take advantage of this, it only needs to
cancel the block job on .abort(). Other block job actions will probably
follow the same pattern, so allow .commit() to be NULL.

to distinguish them. Caller can choose to search by id or name,
*errp will be set only for exception.
Some code are modified based on Pavel's patch.

Internal snapshot's ID and name concept are both visible in general
block level, they are observed by user in "info snapshots", so it is
possible to mess them up. Although we can separate the two concept in
programming, but if they can be distinguished in string itself, things
will be simple and clear, so introduce two functions to do it.
The implemention, qcow2 snapshot calls snapshot_id_string_generate() to
make sure it follows the rule in driver. If caller or user give a check
with snapshot_name_wellformed() before create snapshot, then the ID
and name will never mess up. The check can be also taken in
qcow2_snapshot_create(), but require it to return error reason.
For rbd, it have no ID, so have no impact.
For sheepdog, ID can't be determined in qemu, so still can't guarantee
that no more mess up for ID and name.

Snapshot creation actually already distinguish id and name since it take
a structured parameter *sn, but delete can't. Later an accurate delete
is needed in qmp_transaction abort and blockdev-snapshot-delete-sync,
so change its prototype. Also *errp is added to tip error, but return
value is kepted to let caller check what kind of error happens. Existing
caller for it are savevm, delvm and qemu-img, they are not impacted by
check the return value and do the operations again.
Before this patch:
For qcow2, it search id first then name to find the one to delete.
For rbd, it search name.
For sheepdog, it does nothing.
After this patch:
For qcow2, logic is the same by call it twice in caller.
For rbd, it always fails in delete with id, but still search for name
in second try, no change for user.
Some code for *errp is based on Pavel's patch.

Unlike savevm, the qmp_transaction interface will not generate
snapshot name automatically, saving trouble to return information
of the new created snapshot. The snapshot name should not mess up
with snapshot ID, there is a check for it.
Although qcow2 support storing multiple snapshots with same name
but different ID, here it will fail when an snapshot with that name
already exist before the operation. Format such as rbd do not support
ID at all, and in most case, it means trouble to user when he faces
multiple snapshots with same name, so ban that case.
Snapshot ID can't be specified in this interface.

Invalid JSON - you need a comma between name-value pairs. (I _wish_ JSON
had allowed trailing commas, the way C99 does, because it reduces the
size of diffs when adding an element at the end...)
Yet another instance of the introspection problem. Is there some other
patch in this series that introduces a standalone command that witnesses
whether this transaction is available? If so, I'm okay; if not, then
libvirt won't know if this transaction is available without
introspection, or by trying it first and detecting the error when it is
not available. For the purposes of transactions, since any failure
rolls back the entire transaction (including the failure of an unknown
action within the transaction), the try-and-fail approach may be
sufficient, even if it is not the prettiest.

Not true. Taking an internal and then an external snapshot has a
different effect than taking an external and then internal snapshot of
the same disk. The sequence of requests is significant, because it
controls which of two files involved contains the internal snapshot.

why "try"? The point of a transaction is that it either completely
happens or is completely aborted. If you are leaving behind garbage
after a failure later in the transaction, then you didn't design the
transaction correctly. (And yes, we have an existing bug where external
snapshots that get aborted after creating an empty destination file are
leaving behind garbage, but that's pre-existing and unrelated to your
feature addition.)

So why is name optional here but mandatory within a transaction? If
qemu is able to generate names, then it should be able to generate names
in both cases. Otherwise, make the name mandatory in both places.
Should this patch be folded in to 7/12? Compare with Stefan's series on
adding block-snapshot as a transaction (for that matter, the two series
have a [trivial] merge conflict since both add a transaction), and make
sure you are using the same approach between the two series at
introducing things.

Ah, so this answers my question in 7/12 about a witness that libvirt can
use for knowing when transaction supports the new action, without
needing introspection.

Wait a second. If we DON'T pass a name, then the generated name is all
numeric. But if we DO pass an all-numeric name, it gets rejected.
That's awkward to explain. Maybe you want to instead have a cutoff,
where a number < 64k (is that the right threshold? I just picked a
number out of the air) is rejected, but a number >= 64k is treated as
valid because it might represent a timestamp. Or allow all possible
numbers, and only reject the creation of a name that collides with an
existing id. It may be too hard to predict if a name will collide with
a future id of a later snapshot operation.

Evil. If I don't pass a name, then I NEED to know what name got
generated on my behalf. So that argues you need to return something,
rather than nothing. I can see why you can't return a string via
'transaction', but maybe this is an argument that 'name' should be
mandatory in this QMP command (and any generation of a timestamp id must
be higher up in the stack, at the HMP level, so that HMP can still treat
name as optional). But then you are back to solving the problem of
allowing an all-numeric generated timestamp as a valid name.

Why not? If it is possible to look up by id in isolation, then it
should be possible to delete by id in isolation. Also, if it is
possible to create a snapshot that has an id but no name (and I think
qcow2 allows such snapshots, even if we don't want to expose that corner
case of creation via normal QMP), then it is mandatory to have a way to
delete by id, since there is no name to delete by.

Should this command be made available via 'transaction'? That is, if I
have a two-disk VM, and use 'transaction' to take a snapshot of both
disks at once, shouldn't I also have a way to delete the snapshots of
both at once, or gracefully fail without data loss if the second one has
problems?

I'm not convinced that this interface is powerful enough.

Will fix it. By the way, why the build/run can succeed without comma
in my test....

You mean a command detecting whether
'blockdev-snapshot-internal-sync' is available? No I haven't introduce
it, a standalone command for 'TransactionAction' type detection seems
not so wisely, maybe integration it in qapi capability query.

In external case, the device changes its active image in commit()
stage, so it will not affect internal snapshot. For example:
Taking an internal snapshot sn0 on ide-hd0 with image0.qcow2, then
an external snapshot to create image1.qcow2, result in:
image0.qcow2(sn0)-->image1.qcow2.
Taking an external snapshot to create image1.qcow2 on ide-hd0 with
image0.qcow2, then an external an internal snapshot sn0 on ide-hd0:
image0.qcow2(sn0)-->image1.qcow2.
However, the comments reminds me that it maybe different to
take two snapshots sn0, sn1 on same device with different sequence:
the name looks the same, but the actually L1 table contents may
change according to the sequence, although invisible to user.
Maybe I should remove this line in document.

I can't find a perfect way to rollback disks, since it may I/O error.
The same thing happens to external case, try delete seems the best way.
Consider breaking qcow_snapshot_create() into 3 stage, there would not
be much improvement for same reason. The best thing I can see is make
sure it is fixable by qemu-img.

A bit different: transaction take multiple requests, if some thing
is generated it should return the info, but it didn't, so forbid it.
But for this action, it is single, make caller possible to get accurate
info by a info query. I'll make name mandatory in both case, it seems
better.

I think the two patch can distinguish each other: one is doing the job
in "batch" mode, one is doing in "single" mode, and make each patch
smaller. After review, I am OK to squash them.

OK, qemu-img allows create snapshot with name="" before, so we need
take care for that corener case in this interface. Here is the redesign:
##
# @blockdev-snapshot-delete-internal-sync
#
# Synchronously delete an internal snapshot of a block device, when the
ormat
# of the image used support it.
#
# @device: the name of the device to delete the snapshot from
#
# @name: the snapshot's name to be deleted
#
# @id: optional the snapshot's ID to be deleted. If specified, qemu will
# try delete the snapshot matching both @name and @id.
#
# Returns: nothing on success
# If @device is not a valid block device, DeviceNotFound
# If snapshot not found, generic error will be returned
#
# Since 1.6
##
{ 'command': 'blockdev-snapshot-delete-internal-sync',
'data': { 'device': 'str', 'name': 'str', '*id': 'str' } }
Then caller specify name='' and id=[ID] to handle the corner case.

I think adding it in transaction is not very useful but brings more
complexity. Transcation is used to guareentee all operations are taken
in one time point, for example, snapshot creation use it to make sure
all are consistent to VM. But for deletion, this requirement do not
exist.

Please use '%s' instead of just %s for arguments in error messages.
This will make the message easier to understand, especially when name is
empty. It's also consistent with the rest of blockdev.c.

It's appropriate here and blockdev.c is emulator code, so you can drop
the comment.

I guess the problem is: can we make internal snapshot deletion
transactional? It's hard to do rollback for snapshot deletion.
But batching is definitely useful for doing 'delvm' in QMP. I just
don't think transactions help. We just need a 'delvm' equivalent in
QMP.

Several deletion in transaction equals to several calls of

not add it which have rollback issue.

'delvm' is a batch interface - it deletes internal snapshots that have
the same name across multiple devices.
It's not as flexible as:
blkdev-internal-snapshot-delete drive0 drive2 drive4
Because that would allow you to specify specific drives.

It's part of the drive-backup series which you have already
cherry-picked from.

Do you mean this interface should be changed as
blkdev-internal-snapshot-delete devices_array name *id?
It seems not much difference with following methods:
for device in device_list:
blkdev-internal-snapshot-delete device name

The ability to batch in a single QMP command feels a little nicer.
There are less opportunities for the operation to stop half-way through.
It would be usable as a QMP 'delvm' and in a more flexible way to delete
multiple internal snapshots.
Would be interesting to see what Eric Blake thinks from a libvirt
perspective.

Just want to mention: other interfaces for block device take single
device as parameter now, use array here would be a little strange, and
increase the complexity in qmp and hmp interface. My opinion is
let caller do:
for device in device_list:
blkdev-internal-snapshot-delete device name
Still, hope to know Eric's opinion.
