[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 00/15] block jobs: Convert I/O to BlockBackend

[Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com>]

This series changes the block jobs so that they have a separate BlockBackend
for every node on which they perform I/O. This doesn't only get us closer to
the goal of only doing I/O through blk_*() from external sources (and block
jobs are considered external), but can also later be used to use BlockBackend
features for jobs: One could imagine replacing the very basic job throttling by
the already existing and more advanced BlockBackend throttling, or using the
BlockBackend error handling for block jobs.

This depends on my current block branch (because of the drain fixes).

v3:
- Included Eric's "block: Rename blk_write_zeroes()" and rebased the rest on
  top of it in order to avoid merge conflicts [Eric]
- Build fix for tests/test-blockjob-txn [Changlong Xie]

v2:
- Rebase conflict resolution, in particular:
  * bdrv_new() without parameter
  * blk_*write_zeroes() is sector based now
- Assert that all BDSes are gone after bdrv_close_all [Max, Berto]
- Don't add new sector based blk_* interfaces. Instead, blk_co_preadv/pwritev
  are made public. [Max]
- commit: Removed unnecessary cast [Max]
- commit: Use blk_* functions in commit_run() [Max]
