-# Dirty Bitmaps and Incremental Backup
-
-* Dirty Bitmaps are objects that track which data needs to be backed up for the
-  next incremental backup.
-
-* Dirty bitmaps can be created at any time and attached to any node
-  (not just complete drives.)
-
-## Dirty Bitmap Names
-
-* A dirty bitmap's name is unique to the node, but bitmaps attached to different
-  nodes can share the same name.
-
-* Dirty bitmaps created for internal use by QEMU may be anonymous and have no
-  name, but any user-created bitmaps may not be. There can be any number of
-  anonymous bitmaps per node.
-
-* The name of a user-created bitmap must not be empty ("").
-
-## Bitmap Modes
-
-* A Bitmap can be "frozen," which means that it is currently in-use by a backup
-  operation and cannot be deleted, renamed, written to, reset,
-  etc.
-
-* The normal operating mode for a bitmap is "active."
-
-## Basic QMP Usage
-
-### Supported Commands ###
-
-* block-dirty-bitmap-add
-* block-dirty-bitmap-remove
-* block-dirty-bitmap-clear
-
-### Creation
-
-* To create a new bitmap, enabled, on the drive with id=drive0:
-
-```json
-{ "execute": "block-dirty-bitmap-add",
-  "arguments": {
-    "node": "drive0",
-    "name": "bitmap0"
-  }
-}
-```
-
-* This bitmap will have a default granularity that matches the cluster size of
-  its associated drive, if available, clamped to between [4KiB, 64KiB].
-  The current default for qcow2 is 64KiB.
-
-* To create a new bitmap that tracks changes in 32KiB segments:
-
-```json
-{ "execute": "block-dirty-bitmap-add",
-  "arguments": {
-    "node": "drive0",
-    "name": "bitmap0",
-    "granularity": 32768
-  }
-}
-```
-
-### Deletion
-
-* Bitmaps that are frozen cannot be deleted.
-
-* Deleting the bitmap does not impact any other bitmaps attached to the same
-  node, nor does it affect any backups already created from this node.
-
-* Because bitmaps are only unique to the node to which they are attached,
-  you must specify the node/drive name here, too.
-
-```json
-{ "execute": "block-dirty-bitmap-remove",
-  "arguments": {
-    "node": "drive0",
-    "name": "bitmap0"
-  }
-}
-```
-
-### Resetting
-
-* Resetting a bitmap will clear all information it holds.
-
-* An incremental backup created from an empty bitmap will copy no data,
-  as if nothing has changed.
-
-```json
-{ "execute": "block-dirty-bitmap-clear",
-  "arguments": {
-    "node": "drive0",
-    "name": "bitmap0"
-  }
-}
-```
-
-## Transactions
-
-### Justification
-
-Bitmaps can be safely modified when the VM is paused or halted by using
-the basic QMP commands. For instance, you might perform the following actions:
-
-1. Boot the VM in a paused state.
-2. Create a full drive backup of drive0.
-3. Create a new bitmap attached to drive0.
-4. Resume execution of the VM.
-5. Incremental backups are ready to be created.
-
-At this point, the bitmap and drive backup would be correctly in sync,
-and incremental backups made from this point forward would be correctly aligned
-to the full drive backup.
-
-This is not particularly useful if we decide we want to start incremental
-backups after the VM has been running for a while, for which we will need to
-perform actions such as the following:
-
-1. Boot the VM and begin execution.
-2. Using a single transaction, perform the following operations:
-    * Create bitmap0.
-    * Create a full drive backup of drive0.
-3. Incremental backups are now ready to be created.
-
-### Supported Bitmap Transactions
-
-* block-dirty-bitmap-add
-* block-dirty-bitmap-clear
-
-The usages are identical to their respective QMP commands, but see below
-for examples.
-
-### Example: New Incremental Backup
-
-As outlined in the justification, perhaps we want to create a new incremental
-backup chain attached to a drive.
-
-```json
-{ "execute": "transaction",
-  "arguments": {
-    "actions": [
-      {"type": "block-dirty-bitmap-add",
-       "data": {"node": "drive0", "name": "bitmap0"} },
-      {"type": "drive-backup",
-       "data": {"device": "drive0", "target": "/path/to/full_backup.img",
-                "sync": "full", "format": "qcow2"} }
-    ]
-  }
-}
-```
-
-### Example: New Incremental Backup Anchor Point
-
-Maybe we just want to create a new full backup with an existing bitmap and
-want to reset the bitmap to track the new chain.
-
-```json
-{ "execute": "transaction",
-  "arguments": {
-    "actions": [
-      {"type": "block-dirty-bitmap-clear",
-       "data": {"node": "drive0", "name": "bitmap0"} },
-      {"type": "drive-backup",
-       "data": {"device": "drive0", "target": "/path/to/new_full_backup.img",
-                "sync": "full", "format": "qcow2"} }
-    ]
-  }
-}
-```
-
-## Incremental Backups
-
-The star of the show.
-
-**Nota Bene!** Only incremental backups of entire drives are supported for now.
-So despite the fact that you can attach a bitmap to any arbitrary node, they are
-only currently useful when attached to the root node. This is because
-drive-backup only supports drives/devices instead of arbitrary nodes.
-
-### Example: First Incremental Backup
-
-1. Create a full backup and sync it to the dirty bitmap, as in the transactional
-examples above; or with the VM offline, manually create a full copy and then
-create a new bitmap before the VM begins execution.
-
-    * Let's assume the full backup is named 'full_backup.img'.
-    * Let's assume the bitmap you created is 'bitmap0' attached to 'drive0'.
-
-2. Create a destination image for the incremental backup that utilizes the
-full backup as a backing image.
-
-    * Let's assume it is named 'incremental.0.img'.
-
-    ```sh
-    # qemu-img create -f qcow2 incremental.0.img -b full_backup.img -F qcow2
-    ```
-
-3. Issue the incremental backup command:
-
-    ```json
-    { "execute": "drive-backup",
-      "arguments": {
-        "device": "drive0",
-        "bitmap": "bitmap0",
-        "target": "incremental.0.img",
-        "format": "qcow2",
-        "sync": "incremental",
-        "mode": "existing"
-      }
-    }
-    ```
-
-### Example: Second Incremental Backup
-
-1. Create a new destination image for the incremental backup that points to the
-   previous one, e.g.: 'incremental.1.img'
-
-    ```sh
-    # qemu-img create -f qcow2 incremental.1.img -b incremental.0.img -F qcow2
-    ```
-
-2. Issue a new incremental backup command. The only difference here is that we
-   have changed the target image below.
-
-    ```json
-    { "execute": "drive-backup",
-      "arguments": {
-        "device": "drive0",
-        "bitmap": "bitmap0",
-        "target": "incremental.1.img",
-        "format": "qcow2",
-        "sync": "incremental",
-        "mode": "existing"
-      }
-    }
-    ```
-
-## Errors
-
-* In the event of an error that occurs after a backup job is successfully
-  launched, either by a direct QMP command or a QMP transaction, the user
-  will receive a BLOCK_JOB_COMPLETE event with a failure message, accompanied
-  by a BLOCK_JOB_ERROR event.
-
-* In the case of an event being cancelled, the user will receive a
-  BLOCK_JOB_CANCELLED event instead of a pair of COMPLETE and ERROR events.
-
-* In either case, the incremental backup data contained within the bitmap is
-  safely rolled back, and the data within the bitmap is not lost. The image
-  file created for the failed attempt can be safely deleted.
-
-* Once the underlying problem is fixed (e.g. more storage space is freed up),
-  you can simply retry the incremental backup command with the same bitmap.
-
-### Example
-
-1. Create a target image:
-
-    ```sh
-    # qemu-img create -f qcow2 incremental.0.img -b full_backup.img -F qcow2
-    ```
-
-2. Attempt to create an incremental backup via QMP:
-
-    ```json
-    { "execute": "drive-backup",
-      "arguments": {
-        "device": "drive0",
-        "bitmap": "bitmap0",
-        "target": "incremental.0.img",
-        "format": "qcow2",
-        "sync": "incremental",
-        "mode": "existing"
-      }
-    }
-    ```
-
-3. Receive an event notifying us of failure:
-
-    ```json
-    { "timestamp": { "seconds": 1424709442, "microseconds": 844524 },
-      "data": { "speed": 0, "offset": 0, "len": 67108864,
-                "error": "No space left on device",
-                "device": "drive1", "type": "backup" },
-      "event": "BLOCK_JOB_COMPLETED" }
-    ```
-
-4. Delete the failed incremental, and re-create the image.
-
-    ```sh
-    # rm incremental.0.img
-    # qemu-img create -f qcow2 incremental.0.img -b full_backup.img -F qcow2
-    ```
-
-5. Retry the command after fixing the underlying problem,
-   such as freeing up space on the backup volume:
-
-    ```json
-    { "execute": "drive-backup",
-      "arguments": {
-        "device": "drive0",
-        "bitmap": "bitmap0",
-        "target": "incremental.0.img",
-        "format": "qcow2",
-        "sync": "incremental",
-        "mode": "existing"
-      }
-    }
-    ```
-
-6. Receive confirmation that the job completed successfully:
-
-    ```json
-    { "timestamp": { "seconds": 1424709668, "microseconds": 526525 },
-      "data": { "device": "drive1", "type": "backup",
-                "speed": 0, "len": 67108864, "offset": 67108864},
-      "event": "BLOCK_JOB_COMPLETED" }
-    ```
-
-### Partial Transactional Failures
-
-* Sometimes, a transaction will succeed in launching and return success,
-  but then later the backup jobs themselves may fail. It is possible that
-  a management application may have to deal with a partial backup failure
-  after a successful transaction.
-
-* If multiple backup jobs are specified in a single transaction, when one of
-  them fails, it will not interact with the other backup jobs in any way.
-
-* The job(s) that succeeded will clear the dirty bitmap associated with the
-  operation, but the job(s) that failed will not. It is not "safe" to delete
-  any incremental backups that were created successfully in this scenario,
-  even though others failed.
-
-#### Example
-
-* QMP example highlighting two backup jobs:
-
-    ```json
-    { "execute": "transaction",
-      "arguments": {
-        "actions": [
-          { "type": "drive-backup",
-            "data": { "device": "drive0", "bitmap": "bitmap0",
-                      "format": "qcow2", "mode": "existing",
-                      "sync": "incremental", "target": "d0-incr-1.qcow2" } },
-          { "type": "drive-backup",
-            "data": { "device": "drive1", "bitmap": "bitmap1",
-                      "format": "qcow2", "mode": "existing",
-                      "sync": "incremental", "target": "d1-incr-1.qcow2" } },
-        ]
-      }
-    }
-    ```
-
-* QMP example response, highlighting one success and one failure:
-    * Acknowledgement that the Transaction was accepted and jobs were launched:
-        ```json
-        { "return": {} }
-        ```
-
-    * Later, QEMU sends notice that the first job was completed:
-        ```json
-        { "timestamp": { "seconds": 1447192343, "microseconds": 615698 },
-          "data": { "device": "drive0", "type": "backup",
-                     "speed": 0, "len": 67108864, "offset": 67108864 },
-          "event": "BLOCK_JOB_COMPLETED"
-        }
-        ```
-
-    * Later yet, QEMU sends notice that the second job has failed:
-        ```json
-        { "timestamp": { "seconds": 1447192399, "microseconds": 683015 },
-          "data": { "device": "drive1", "action": "report",
-                    "operation": "read" },
-          "event": "BLOCK_JOB_ERROR" }
-        ```
-
-        ```json
-        { "timestamp": { "seconds": 1447192399, "microseconds": 685853 },
-          "data": { "speed": 0, "offset": 0, "len": 67108864,
-                    "error": "Input/output error",
-                    "device": "drive1", "type": "backup" },
-          "event": "BLOCK_JOB_COMPLETED" }
-
-* In the above example, "d0-incr-1.qcow2" is valid and must be kept,
-  but "d1-incr-1.qcow2" is invalid and should be deleted. If a VM-wide
-  incremental backup of all drives at a point-in-time is to be made,
-  new backups for both drives will need to be made, taking into account
-  that a new incremental backup for drive0 needs to be based on top of
-  "d0-incr-1.qcow2."
-
-### Grouped Completion Mode
-
-* While jobs launched by transactions normally complete or fail on their own,
-  it is possible to instruct them to complete or fail together as a group.
-
-* QMP transactions take an optional properties structure that can affect
-  the semantics of the transaction.
-
-* The "completion-mode" transaction property can be either "individual"
-  which is the default, legacy behavior described above, or "grouped,"
-  a new behavior detailed below.
-
-* Delayed Completion: In grouped completion mode, no jobs will report
-  success until all jobs are ready to report success.
-
-* Grouped failure: If any job fails in grouped completion mode, all remaining
-  jobs will be cancelled. Any incremental backups will restore their dirty
-  bitmap objects as if no backup command was ever issued.
-
-    * Regardless of if QEMU reports a particular incremental backup job as
-      CANCELLED or as an ERROR, the in-memory bitmap will be restored.
-
-#### Example
-
-* Here's the same example scenario from above with the new property:
-
-    ```json
-    { "execute": "transaction",
-      "arguments": {
-        "actions": [
-          { "type": "drive-backup",
-            "data": { "device": "drive0", "bitmap": "bitmap0",
-                      "format": "qcow2", "mode": "existing",
-                      "sync": "incremental", "target": "d0-incr-1.qcow2" } },
-          { "type": "drive-backup",
-            "data": { "device": "drive1", "bitmap": "bitmap1",
-                      "format": "qcow2", "mode": "existing",
-                      "sync": "incremental", "target": "d1-incr-1.qcow2" } },
-        ],
-        "properties": {
-          "completion-mode": "grouped"
-        }
-      }
-    }
-    ```
-
-* QMP example response, highlighting a failure for drive2:
-    * Acknowledgement that the Transaction was accepted and jobs were launched:
-        ```json
-        { "return": {} }
-        ```
-
-    * Later, QEMU sends notice that the second job has errored out,
-      but that the first job was also cancelled:
-        ```json
-        { "timestamp": { "seconds": 1447193702, "microseconds": 632377 },
-          "data": { "device": "drive1", "action": "report",
-                    "operation": "read" },
-          "event": "BLOCK_JOB_ERROR" }
-        ```
-
-        ```json
-        { "timestamp": { "seconds": 1447193702, "microseconds": 640074 },
-          "data": { "speed": 0, "offset": 0, "len": 67108864,
-                    "error": "Input/output error",
-                    "device": "drive1", "type": "backup" },
-          "event": "BLOCK_JOB_COMPLETED" }
-        ```
-
-        ```json
-        { "timestamp": { "seconds": 1447193702, "microseconds": 640163 },
-          "data": { "device": "drive0", "type": "backup", "speed": 0,
-                    "len": 67108864, "offset": 16777216 },
-          "event": "BLOCK_JOB_CANCELLED" }
-        ```
