1024 is a magic number for me.  Can we have a meaningful macro?

It looks like that the memory where "bs" is pointing to should be 
protected by a lock. Because "bs"
was passed to several BlockDriver entries like ".bdrv_co_writev',

+== General ==
+
+Raw file format does not support backing_file and copy on write feature. Then
+you can use add-cow file realize these features.
+
+When using add-cow, procedures may like this:
+(ubuntu.img is a disk image which has been installed OS.)
+    1)  Create a raw image with the same size of ubuntu.img
+            qemu-img create -f raw test.raw 8G
+    2)  Create a add-cow image which will store dirty bitmap
+            qemu-img create -f add-cow test.add-cow -o backing_file=ubuntu.img,image_file=test.raw
+    3)  Run qemu with add-cow image
+            qemu -drive if=virtio,file=test.add-cow
+
+=Specification=
+
+The file format looks like this:
+
+ +----------+----------+----------+-----+
+ |  Header  |   Data   |   Data   | ... |
+ +----------+----------+----------+-----+
+
+ All numbers in add-cow are stored in Big Endian byte order.
+
+
+== Header ==
+
+The Header is included in the first bytes:
+
+    Byte  0 -  7:       magic
+                        add-cow magic string ("ADD_COW\xff")
+
+          8 -  11:      version
+                        Version number (only valid value is 1 now)
+
+          12 - 1035:    backing_file
+                        backing_file file name related to add-cow file. While
+                        using backing_file, must together with image_file.
+
+         1036 - 2059:   image_file
+                        image_file is a raw file, While using image_file, must
+                        together with image_file.
+
+         2060 - 2067:   size
+                        Virtual disk size of image_file in bytes.
