Modern way is using blockdev-add + blockdev-backup, which provides a lot more control on how target is opened. As example of drive-backup problems consider the following: User of drive-backup expects that target will be opened in the same cache and aio mode as source. Corresponding logic is in drive_backup_prepare(), where we take bs->open_flags of source. It works rather bad if source was added by blockdev-add. Assume source is qcow2 image. On blockdev-add we should specify aio and cache options for file child of qcow2 node. What happens next: drive_backup_prepare() looks at bs->open_flags of qcow2 source node. But there no BDRV_O_NOCAHE neither BDRV_O_NATIVE_AIO: BDRV_O_NOCAHE is places in bs->file->bs->open_flags, and BDRV_O_NATIVE_AIO is nowhere, as file-posix parse options and simply set s->use_linux_aio. The documentation is updated in a minimal way, so that drive-backup is noted only as a deprecated command, and blockdev-backup used in most of places.

|
|
#
|
|
# Each new snapshot defaults to being created by QEMU (wiping any
|
|
# contents if the file already exists), but it is also possible to reuse
|
|
# an externally-created file. In the latter case, you should ensure that
|
|
# the new image file has the same contents as the current one; QEMU cannot
|
|
# perform any meaningful check. Typically this is achieved by using the
|
|
# current image file as the backing file for the new image.

|
#
|
|
# On failure, the original disks pre-snapshot attempt will be used.
|
|
#
|
|
# For internal snapshots, the dictionary contains the device and the

# snapshot's name. If an internal snapshot matching name already exists,

|
# the request will be rejected. Only some image formats support it, for
|
|
# example, qcow2, and rbd,
|
|
#
|
|
# On failure, qemu will try delete the newly created internal snapshot in the
|
|
# transaction. When an I/O error occurs during deletion, the user needs to fix
|
|
# it later with qemu-img or other command.
