block: Update BlockDriverState.inherits_from on bdrv_set_backing_hd()
When a BlockDriverState's child is opened (be it a backing file, the protocol layer, or any other) inherits_from is set to point to the parent node. Children opened separately and then attached to a parent don't have this pointer set. bdrv_reopen_queue_child() uses this to determine whether a node's children must also be reopened inheriting the options from the parent or not. If inherits_from points to the parent then the child is reopened and its options can be changed, like in this example: $ qemu-img create -f qcow2 hd0.qcow2 1M $ qemu-img create -f qcow2 hd1.qcow2 1M $ $QEMU -drive if=none,node-name=hd0,file=hd0.qcow2,\ backing.driver=qcow2,backing.file.filename=hd1.qcow2 (qemu) qemu-io hd0 "reopen -o backing.l2-cache-size=2M" If the child does not inherit from the parent then it does not get reopened and its options cannot be changed: $ $QEMU -drive if=none,node-name=hd1,file=hd1.qcow2 -drive if=none,node-name=hd0,file=hd0.qcow2,backing=hd1 (qemu) qemu-io hd0 "reopen -o backing.l2-cache-size=2M" Cannot change the option 'backing.l2-cache-size' If a disk image has a chain of backing files then all of them are also connected through their inherits_from pointers (i.e. it's possible to walk the chain in reverse order from base to top). However this is broken if the intermediate nodes are removed using e.g. block-stream because the inherits_from pointer from the base node becomes NULL: $ qemu-img create -f qcow2 hd0.qcow2 1M $ qemu-img create -f qcow2 -b hd0.qcow2 hd1.qcow2 $ qemu-img create -f qcow2 -b hd1.qcow2 hd2.qcow2 $ $QEMU -drive if=none,file=hd2.qcow2 (qemu) qemu-io none0 "reopen -o backing.l2-cache-size=2M" (qemu) block_stream none0 0 hd0.qcow2 (qemu) qemu-io none0 "reopen -o backing.l2-cache-size=2M" Cannot change the option 'backing.l2-cache-size' This patch updates the inherits_from pointer if the intermediate nodes of a backing chain are removed using bdrv_set_backing_hd(), and adds a test case for this scenario.
