[Libguestfs] [PATCH nbdkit] Add Tcl plugin, for writing plugins in Tcl.

Sun Jul 1 14:59:49 UTC 2018


This lets you write simple plugins in Tcl.  All the basic features of
nbdkit are supported, but serious Tcl users will probably want to
enhance the plugin further.

Unfortunately Tcl as a language is not very well suited to handling
binary data.  It prefers to store binary data in UCS-2 strings,
meaning that every second byte is wasted.  Also there appears to be no
way to replace part of such a string/array in-place.

Strictly speaking Tcl requires that:

   "only the thread that created a Tcl interpreter can use that
   interpreter. In other words, multiple threads can not access the
   same Tcl interpreter."

Apparently this applies even if nbdkit uses mutexes to ensure that
multiple threads are not calling into the interpreter at the same
time.  We do not have such a threading model in nbdkit (see also VDDK)
but at the same time I was not able to get Tcl to crash.

The Tcl interpreter leaks quite a lot of memory from the tcl_load and
tcl_open calls.  This may be connected with the previous point.  It
makes valgrind fairly useless so it is disabled for Tcl.

+=head1 NAME
+
+nbdkit-tcl-plugin - nbdkit Tcl plugin
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ nbdkit tcl /path/to/plugin.tcl [arguments...]
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+C<nbdkit-tcl-plugin> is an embedded Tcl interpreter for
+L<nbdkit(1)>, allowing you to write nbdkit plugins in Tcl.
+
+Broadly speaking, Tcl nbdkit plugins work like C ones, so you should
+read L<nbdkit-plugin(3)> first.
+
+=head2 USING A TCL NBDKIT PLUGIN
+
+Assuming you have a Tcl script which is an nbdkit plugin, you run it
+like this:
+
+ nbdkit tcl /path/to/plugin.tcl
+
+You may have to add further C<key=value> arguments to the command
+line.  Read the Tcl script to see if it requires any.
+
+=head1 WRITING A TCL NBDKIT PLUGIN
+
+For an example plugin written in Tcl, see:
+L<https://github.com/libguestfs/nbdkit/blob/master/plugins/tcl/example.tcl>
+
+To write a Tcl nbdkit plugin, you create a Tcl file which contains
+at least the following required subroutines:
+
+ proc plugin_open {readonly} {
+     # see below
+     return $h
+ }
+ proc get_size {h} {
+     # see below
+     return $size
+ }
+ proc pread {h count offset} {
+     # see below
+     return $buf
+ }
+
+Note that the subroutines must have those literal names (like
+C<plugin_open>), because the C part looks up and calls those functions
+directly.  You may want to include documentation and globals (eg. for
+storing global state).  Also any top-level statements are run when
+nbdkit starts up.
+
+=head2 EXECUTABLE SCRIPT
+
+If you want you can make the script executable and include a "shebang"
+at the top:
+
+ #!/usr/sbin/nbdkit tcl
+
+See also L<nbdkit(1)/Shebang scripts>.
+
+These scripts can also be installed in the C<$plugindir>.  See
+L<nbdkit-plugin(3)/WRITING PLUGINS IN OTHER PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES>.
+
+=head2 EXCEPTIONS
+
+Tcl plugin methods can indicate an error by calling C<error>.
+
+=head2 BINARY DATA
+
+When writing your Tcl script, be careful to ensure that it is
+processing binary data (not Unicode).  If reading and writing from
+local disk files, you should use:
+
+ fconfigure $fp -translation binary
+
+Note also that the value returned from C<pread> should convertible to
+a byte array, and the buffer passed to C<pwrite> is also a byte array.
+
+See also: L<https://wiki.tcl.tk/1180>
+
+=head2 TCL CALLBACKS
+
+This just documents the arguments to the callbacks in Tcl, and any
+way that they differ from the C callbacks.  In all other respects they
+work the same way as the C callbacks, so you should go and read
+L<nbdkit-plugin(3)>.
+
+=over 4
+
+=item C<dump_plugin>
+
+(Optional)
+
+There are no arguments or return value.
+
+=item C<config>
+
+(Optional)
+
+ proc config {key value} {
+     # No return value.
+ }
+
+=item C<config_complete>
+
+(Optional)
+
+There are no arguments or return value.
+
+=item C<plugin_open>
+
+(Required)
+
+ proc plugin_open {readonly} {
+     set handle ...
+     return $handle
+ }
+
+The C<readonly> flag is a boolean.
+
+You can return any Tcl string or object as the handle.  It is passed
+back to subsequent calls.
+
+=item C<plugin_close>
+
+(Optional)
+
+ proc plugin_close {h} {
+     # No return value
+ }
+
+After C<plugin_close> returns, the reference count of the handle is
+decremented in the C part, which usually means that the handle and its
+contents will be garbage collected.
+
+=item C<get_size>
+
+(Required)
+
+ proc get_size {h} {
+     set size .. the size of the disk ..
+     return $size
+ }
+
+This returns the size of the disk.
+
+=item C<can_write>
+
+(Optional)
+
+ proc can_write {h} {
+     return $bool
+ }
+
+Return a boolean indicating whether the disk is writable.
+
+=item C<can_flush>
+
+(Optional)
+
+ proc can_flush {h} {
+     return $bool
+ }
+
+Return a boolean indicating whether flush can be performed.
+
+=item C<is_rotational>
+
+(Optional)
+
+ proc is_rotational {h} {
+     return $bool
+ }
+
+Return a boolean indicating whether the disk is rotational.
+
+=item C<can_trim>
+
+(Optional)
+
+ proc can_trim {h} {
+     return $bool
+ }
+
+Return a boolean indicating whether trim/discard can be performed.
+
+=item C<pread>
+
+(Required)
+
+ proc pread {h count offset} {
+    # Construct a buffer of length $count bytes and return it.
+    return $buf
+ }
+
+The body of your C<pread> function should construct a buffer of length
+(at least) C<$count> bytes.  You should read C<$count> bytes from the
+disk starting at C<$offset>.
+
+NBD only supports whole reads, so your function should try to read the
+whole region (perhaps requiring a loop).  If the read fails or is
+partial, your function should call C<error>.
+
+=item C<pwrite>
+
+(Optional)
+
+ proc pwrite {h buf offset} {
+    # No return value
+ }
+
+The body of your C<pwrite> function should write the C<$buf> string to
+the disk.  You should write C<$count> bytes to the disk starting at
+C<$offset>.
+
+NBD only supports whole writes, so your function should try to write
+the whole region (perhaps requiring a loop).  If the write fails or is
+partial, your function should call C<error>.
+
+=item C<plugin_flush>
+
+(Optional)
+
+ proc plugin_flush {h} {
+     # No return value
+ }
+
+The body of your C<plugin_flush> function should do a L<sync(2)> or
+L<fdatasync(2)> or equivalent on the backing store.
+
+=item C<trim>
+
+(Optional)
+
+ proc trim {h count offset} {
+     # No return value
+ }
+
+The body of your C<trim> function should "punch a hole" in the backing
+store.
+
+=item C<zero>
+
+(Optional)
+
+ proc zero {h count offset may_trim} {
+    # No return value
+ }
+
+The body of your C<zero> function should ensure that C<$count> bytes
+of the disk, starting at C<$offset>, will read back as zero.  If
+C<$may_trim> is true, the operation may be optimized as a trim as long
+as subsequent reads see zeroes.
+
+NBD only supports whole writes, so your function should try to write
+the whole region (perhaps requiring a loop).  If the write fails or is
+partial, your function should call C<error>.
+
+=back
+
+=head2 MISSING CALLBACKS
+
+=over 4
+
+=item Missing: C<load>, C<unload>, C<name>, C<version>, C<longname>, C<description>, C<config_help>
+
+These are not yet supported.
+
+=back
+
+=head2 THREADS
+
+The thread model for Tcl callbacks currently cannot be set from Tcl.
+It is hard-coded in the C part to
+C<NBDKIT_THREAD_MODEL_SERIALIZE_ALL_REQUESTS>.  This may change or be
+settable in future.
