[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 07/15] block: add bdrv_aio_copy_backing()

[Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

From: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>

Add the bdrv_aio_copy_backing() function to the BlockDriver interface.
This function copies unallocated sectors from the backing file and can
be used to implement image streaming.

+/**
+ * Attempt to copy unallocated sectors from backing file.
+ *
+ * @sector_num - the first sector to start from
+ * @cb - completion callback
+ * @opaque - data to pass completion callback
+ *
+ * Returns NULL if the image format not support the operation, the image is
+ * read-only, or no image is open.
+ *
+ * The intention of this function is for a user to execute it once with a
+ * sector_num of 0 and then upon receiving a completion callback, to remember
+ * the number of sectors copied, and then to call this function again with
+ * an offset adjusted by the number of sectors previously copied.
+ *
+ * This allows a user to progressive stream in an image at a pace that makes
+ * sense.  In general, this function tries to do the smallest amount of I/O
+ * possible to do some useful work.
+ *
+ * This function only really makes sense in combination with a block format
+ * that supports copy on read and has it enabled.  If copy on read is not
+ * enabled, a block format driver may return NULL.
+ *
+ * If an I/O error occurs the completion callback is invoked with -errno in the
+ * nb_sectors argument.
