selftests: ublk: add integrity data support to loop target

Browse source

To perform and end-to-end test of integrity information through a ublk
device, we need to actually store it somewhere and retrieve it. Add this
support to kublk's loop target. It uses a second backing file for the
integrity data corresponding to the data stored in the first file.
The integrity file is initialized with byte 0xFF, which ensures the app
and reference tags are set to the "escape" pattern to disable the
bio-integrity-auto guard and reftag checks until the blocks are written.
The integrity file is opened without O_DIRECT since it will be accessed
at sub-block granularity. Each incoming read/write results in a pair of
reads/writes, one to the data file, and one to the integrity file. If
either backing I/O fails, the error is propagated to the ublk request.
If both backing I/Os read/write some bytes, the ublk request is
completed with the smaller of the number of blocks accessed by each I/O.
