[pve-devel] [PATCH v2 storage] rbd: alloc image: fix #3970 avoid ambiguous rbd path

[Aaron Lauterer <a.lauterer@proxmox.com>]

If two RBD storages use the same pool, but connect to different
clusters, we cannot say to which cluster the mapped RBD image belongs to
if krbd is used. To avoid potential data loss, we need to verify that no
other storage is configured that could have a volume mapped under the
same path before we create the image.

The ambiguous mapping is in
/dev/rbd/<pool>/<ns>/<image> where the namespace <ns> is optional.

Once we can tell the clusters apart in the mapping, we can remove these
checks again.

See bug #3969 for more information on the root cause.

changes since
v1:
* fixed code style issues
* moved check to a helper function and call it from
  - alloc_image
  - clone_image
  - rename_image
* rephrased error message with a link to the bugzilla issue

RFC:
* moved check to pve-storage since containers and VMs both have issues
  not just on a move or clone of the image, but also when creating a new
  volume
* reworked the checks, instead of large if conditions, we use
  PVE::Tools::safe_compare with comparison functions
* normalize monhost list to match correctly if the list is in different
  order
* add storage name to error message that triggered the checks
* ignore disabled storages
