This patch does a couple of primary things:
Firstly it allows you to use "hda", etc. as a path for getting block
device stats from fullvirt domains.
Secondly it separates out the stats code into a new file called
'stats_linux.c'. The reasoning behind the name is that this code can be
shared between Xen & QEMU, and that the code is Linux-specific (it never
worked on Solaris, but now this is explicit). I anticipate a
'stats_solaris.c' file once I can get Solaris + Xen going on a test machine.
Also we try to detect the case where the block dev stats of a fullvirt
domain are stuck at 0 -- caused by there being no frontend driver
connected. We detect the condition by a query to xenstore.
XENVBD_MAJOR is no longer hard-coded if we can get it instead from Linux
header files.
This patch adds bytes written/read to block devices for Xen PV domains
if available.
This also corrects a bug where stats from xvdb, xvdc, .. could not be
read out because the device number was being miscalculated.

Hi Rich,
I know this patch just moved the code below,
and the probability of data corruption and file I/O errors
here is low, but...

Since all of fread, strtoll, and fclose can fail, and since the 64 bytes
from fread might be a valid prefix, but not terminated (i.e., strtoll
could overrun the STR buffer -- yeah, it's far-fetched, but still) the
above should probably be rewritten something like e.g.,
WARNING: the following may not even compile

invalid string (i.e., non-digit), or a long long value that doesn't

lli = strtoll (s, &p, base);
if (errno || !(*p == 0 || *p == '\n') || p == s || (int64_t) lli != lli)
return -1;
*result = lli;
return 0;
}

Thanks Jim. Here is an updated patch which fixes this issue, and is
tested against Xen 3.1.

The principle of the patch sounds good to me, I didn't spot anything
obvious, but I didn't try to test it.

Once it's in CVS and in a release we will see more testing of those APIs

Hi Rich,
[I didn't look through the whole patch, initially.
Here's the result of a more thorough review.]

That function should also check LEN (i.e., what if it's 0 or 1?).
Otherwise, STREQ might read uninitialized memory.
The "unsigned len = 0;" initialization looks unnecessary.

Probably won't ever happen, but it looks like the code
should require that minor "letters" be in [a-o] (aka
['a'..'a'+15]).
If it were to allow larger ones, the "minor * 16" part
would be large enough to modify the major number bits of "device".
That sounds undesirable.
So, if this is something to worry about, you could change
"minor > 26" to "minor > 15" in the two tests above.

Use "sizeof fullinfo - 1", not 999.
Rather than duplicating the __virRaiseError call,
how about calling it just once, with info or fullinfo?

For large starting values of rd_bytes and wr_bytes,
it'd be nice if rather than wrapping around, the result
were the maximum value for that type -- or maybe a sentinel value.

That function should also check LEN (i.e., what if it's 0 or 1?).

I've addressed that by doing something, hopefully the right thing, if
len == 0. (We would expect len == 1).
The "unsigned len = 0;" initialization looks unnecessary.
I left that because I can't see it doing any harm in this case.

Oh dear, that's a mess isn't it. I can't find out how the devices above
xvdo should be numbered, so I took your advice and limited the minor to
<= 15. The same for devices >= hdo too.

Use "sizeof fullinfo - 1", not 999.
Rather than duplicating the __virRaiseError call,
how about calling it just once, with info or fullinfo?
Yes, the perils of copying and pasting code. Fixed both.

For large starting values of rd_bytes and wr_bytes,
it'd be nice if rather than wrapping around, the result
were the maximum value for that type -- or maybe a sentinel value.
It would have to be really really large (these are 64 bit numbers), but
yes I have fixed this too.
Updated patch is attached.
Thanks,
Rich.

Yeah, you're right. len==0 was the only missed case.
I didn't realize at the time that "len" doesn't include
the trailing NUL byte.

It's not a big deal.
True, it causes no run-time harm, but anything unnecessary
can make the reviewer/maintainer wonder "why?".

Looks fine, now.

This patch has been applied.
