H A Dcopy-before-write.cdiff 6db7fd1ca980f8dd2fd082f13613166e170afd05 Thu Apr 07 08:27:25 CDT 2022 Vladimir Sementsov-Ogievskiy <vsementsov@openvz.org> block/copy-before-write: implement cbw-timeout option

In some scenarios, when copy-before-write operations lasts too long
time, it's better to cancel it.

Most useful would be to use the new option together with
on-cbw-error=break-snapshot: this way if cbw operation takes too long
time we'll just cancel backup process but do not disturb the guest too
much.

Note the tricky point of realization: we keep additional point in
bs->in_flight during block_copy operation even if it's timed-out.
Background "cancelled" block_copy operations will finish at some point
and will want to access state. We should care to not free the state in
.bdrv_close() earlier.
