Commit 57cb38b included qapi/error.h into qemu/osdep.h to get the
Error typedef. Since then, we've moved to include qemu/osdep.h
everywhere. Its file comment explains: "To avoid getting into
possible circular include dependencies, this file should not include
any other QEMU headers, with the exceptions of config-host.h,
compiler.h, os-posix.h and os-win32.h, all of which are doing a
similar job to this file and are under similar constraints."
qapi/error.h doesn't do a similar job, and it doesn't adhere to
similar constraints: it includes qapi-types.h. That's in excess of
100KiB of crap most .c files don't actually need.
Add the typedef to qemu/typedefs.h, and include that instead of
qapi/error.h. Include qapi/error.h in .c files that need it and don't
get it now. Include qapi-types.h in qom/object.h for uint16List.
Update scripts/clean-includes accordingly. Update it further to match
reality: replace config.h by config-target.h, add sysemu/os-posix.h,
sysemu/os-win32.h. Update the list of includes in the qemu/osdep.h
comment quoted above similarly.
This reduces the number of objects depending on qapi/error.h from "all

qapi-types.h shrinks only a little. More work is needed for that one.

This patch adds support for bzip2-compressed block entries as introduced
with OS X 10.4 (source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Disk_Image).
It was tested against a 5.2G "OS X Yosemite" installation image which
stores the BLXX block in the XML property list (instead of resource
forks) and has over 5k chunks.
New configure entries are added (--enable-bzip2 / --disable-bzip2) to
control inclusion of bzip2 functionality (which requires linking against
libbz2). The help message suggests that this option is needed for DMG
files, but the tests are generic enough that other parts of QEMU can use
bzip2 if needed.
The identifiers are based on http://newosxbook.com/DMG.html.
The decompression routines are based on the zlib case, but as there is
no way to reset the decompression state (unlike zlib), memory is
allocated and deallocated for every decompression. This should not be
problematic as the decompression takes most of the time and as blocks
are typically about/over 1 MiB in size, only one allocation is done
every 2000 sectors.

This patch addresses two issues:
- The data fork offset was not taken into account, resulting in failure
to read an InstallESD.dmg file (5164763151 bytes) which had a
non-zero DataForkOffset field.
- The offset of the previous block ("partition") was unconditionally
added to the current block because older files would start the input
offset of a new block at zero. Newer files (including vlc-2.1.5.dmg,
tuxpaint-0.9.15-macosx.dmg and OS X Yosemite [MAS].dmg) failed in
reads because these files have chunk offsets, relative to the begin
of a data fork.
Now the data offset of the mish is taken into account. While we could
check that the data_offset is within the data fork, let's not do that
here as it would only result in parse failures on invalid files (rather
than gracefully handling such bad files). dmg_read will error out if
the offset is incorrect.

Besides the offset, also read the resource length. This length is now
used in the extracted function to verify the end of the resource fork
against "count" from the resource fork.
Instead of relying on the value of offset to conclude whether the
resource fork is available or not (info_begin==0), check the
rsrc_fork_length instead. This would allow a dmg file to begin with a
resource fork. This seemingly unnecessary restriction was found while
trying to craft a DMG file by hand.
Other changes:
- Do not require resource data offset to be 0x100 (but check that it
is within bounds though).
- Further improve boundary checking (resource data must be within
the resource fork).
- Use correct value for resource data length (spotted by John Snow)
- Consider the resource data offset when determining info_end.
This fixes an EINVAL on the tuxpaint dmg example.

Note that this patch has one subtle difference with the previous
version which should not affect functionality. In the previous code,
the end of a resource was inferred from the mish block (the offsets
would be increased by the fields). In this patch, the resource length
is used instead to avoid the need to rely on the previous offsets.

DMG files have a variable length with a UDIF trailer at the end of a
file. This UDIF trailer is essential as it describes the contents of
the image. At the moment however, the start of this trailer is almost
always incorrect as bdrv_getlength() returns a multiple of the block
size (rounded up). This results in a failure to recognize DMG files,
resulting in Invalid argument (EINVAL) errors.
As there is no API to retrieve the real file size, look for the magic
header in the last two sectors to find the start of this 512-byte UDIF
trailer (the "koly" block).
The resource fork offset ("info_begin") has its offset adjusted as the
initial value of offset does not mean "end of file" anymore, but "begin
of UDIF trailer".

The big conversion of bdrv_read/write to coroutines caused the two
homonymous callbacks in BlockDriver to become reentrant. It goes
like this:
1) bdrv_read is now called in a coroutine, and calls bdrv_read or
bdrv_pread.
2) the nested bdrv_read goes through the fast path in bdrv_rw_co_entry;
3) in the common case when the protocol is file, bdrv_co_do_readv calls
bdrv_co_readv_em (and from here goes to bdrv_co_io_em), which yields
until the AIO operation is complete;
4) if bdrv_read had been called from a bottom half, the main loop
is free to iterate again: a device model or another bottom half
can then come and call bdrv_read again.
This applies to all four of read/write/flush/discard. It would also
apply to is_allocated, but it is not used from within coroutines:
besides qemu-img.c and qemu-io.c, which operate synchronously, the
only user is the monitor. Copy-on-read will introduce a use in the
block layer, and will require converting it.
The solution is "simply" to convert all drivers to coroutines! We
just need to add a CoMutex that is taken around affected operations.
