Support setting block size for block devives
cinder now supports backend with different block sizes. Sometimes
we need to set a specific block size or operations against the
backend will result in I/O errors. Additionally its a good idea
to tune the block sizes to the correct size as it can improve I/O
performance.
The basic disk configuration for libvrit now supports setting the
logical and physical block size of devices. We pull the block size
from the volume metadata and store it in the connection_info of
the block_device_mapping table for later use.
By default it does not set the block sizes which defaults to
512 bytes.
DocImpact:
This feature requires libvirt 0.10.2+ and the QEMU or KVM
hpypervisor. If a volume has a custom block size, the hypervisor
and libvirt version are checked during the attach_volume call. If
the hypervisor is not supported or the libvirt version is too old
the attach is aborted and an exception is raised.
