Commit Message

Stefan Hajnoczi Sept. 22, 2020, 4:04 p.m. UTC
Use the new QAPI block exports API instead of defining our own QOM
objects.

This is a large change because the lifecycle of VuBlockDev needs to
follow BlockExportDriver. QOM properties are replaced by QAPI options
objects.

VuBlockDev is renamed VuBlkExport and contains a BlockExport field.
Several fields can be dropped since BlockExport already has equivalents.

The file names and meson build integration will be adjusted in a future
patch. libvhost-user should probably be built as a static library that
is linked into QEMU instead of as a .c file that results in duplicate
compilation.

The new command-line syntax is:

  $ qemu-storage-daemon \
      --blockdev file,node-name=drive0,filename=test.img \
      --export vhost-user-blk,node-name=drive0,id=export0,unix-socket=/tmp/vhost-user-blk.sock

Note that unix-socket is optional because we may wish to accept chardevs
too in the future.

It's optional in the QAPI schema, but the code cosunming the --export
appears to require it.

There is no need to make it optional now just in case: Changing an
option parameter from mandatory to optional is backward-compatible.

This is where we make @unix-socket optional.

Default behavior is not documented.

This is where we require @unix-socket.

Good point, it should be mandatory.
