For now, disk migration via block copy job is not implemented in
libvirt. But when we do implement it, we have to deal with the
fact that qemu does not yet provide an easy way to re-start a qemu
process with mirroring still intact. Paolo has proposed an idea
for a persistent dirty bitmap that might make this possible, but
until that design is complete, it's hard to say what changes
libvirt would need. Even something like 'virDomainSave' becomes
hairy, if you realize the implications that 'virDomainRestore'
would be stuck with recreating the same mirror layout.
But if we step back and look at the bigger picture, we realize that
the initial client of live storage migration via disk mirroring is
oVirt, which always uses transient domains, and that if a transient
domain is destroyed while a mirror exists, oVirt can easily restart
the storage migration by creating a new domain that visits just the
source storage, with no loss in data.
We can make life a lot easier by being cowards for now, forbidding
certain operations on a domain. This patch guarantees that we
never get in a state where we would have to restart a domain with
a mirroring block copy, by preventing saves, snapshots, hot
unplug of a disk in use, and conversion to a persistent domain
(thankfully, it is still relatively easy to 'virsh undefine' a
running domain to temporarily make it transient, run tests on
'virsh blockcopy', then 'virsh define' to restore the persistence).
Later, if the qemu design is enhanced, we can relax our code.
The change to qemudDomainDefine looks a bit odd for undoing an
assignment, rather than probing up front to avoid the assignment,
but this is because of how virDomainAssignDef combines both a
lookup and assignment into a single function call.
* src/conf/domain_conf.h (virDomainHasDiskMirror): New prototype.
* src/conf/domain_conf.c (virDomainHasDiskMirror): New function.
* src/libvirt_private.syms (domain_conf.h): Export it.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDomainSaveInternal)
(qemuDomainSnapshotCreateXML, qemuDomainRevertToSnapshot)
(qemuDomainBlockJobImpl, qemudDomainDefine): Prevent dangerous
actions while block copy is already in action.
* src/qemu/qemu_hotplug.c (qemuDomainDetachDiskDevice): Likewise.
