Document some of those limits in the qcow2 spec, and how choice of cluster size can influence some of the limits. While at it, notice that since we cannot map any virtual cluster to any address higher than 64 PB (56 bits) (due to the current L1/L2 field encoding stopping at bit 55), it makes little sense to require the refcount table to access host offsets beyond that point. Mark the upper bits of the refcount table entries as reserved to match the L1/L2 table, with no ill effects, since it is unlikely that there are any existing images larger than 64PB in the first place, and thus all existing images already have those bits as 0. If 64PB proves to be too small in the future, we could enlarge all three uses of bit 55 into the reserved bits at that time. (For reference, ext4 with 4k blocks caps files at 16PB.) However, there is one limit that reserved bits don't help with: for compressed clusters, the L2 layout requires an ever-smaller maximum host offset as cluster size gets larger, down to a 512 TB maximum with 2M clusters.

But this does not catch smaller limits enforced by various spots in the qcow2 image description: L1 and normal clusters of L2 are documented as having bits 63-56 reserved for other purposes, capping our maximum offset at 64PB (bit 55 is the maximum bit set). And for compressed images with 2M clusters, the cap drops the maximum offset to bit 48, or a maximum offset of 512TB. If we overflow that offset, we would write compressed data into one place, but try to decompress from another, which won't work. It's actually possible to prove that overflow can cause image corruption without this patch; I'll add the iotests separately in the next commit.

charset="utf-8" When reading a compressed image, we were allocating s->cluster_data to 32*cluster_size + 512 (possibly over 64 megabytes, for an image with 2M clusters). Let's check out the history: Back when qcow2 was first written, we used s->cluster_data for everything, including copy_sectors() and encryption, where we want to operate on more than one cluster at once. Obviously, at that point, the buffer had to be aligned for other users, even though compression itself doesn't require any alignment (the fact that the compressed data generally starts mid-sector means that aligning our buffer buys us nothing - either the protocol already supports byte-based access into whatever offset we want, or we are already using a bounce buffer to read a full sector, and copying into our destination no longer requires alignment). But commit 1b9f1491 (v1.1!) changed things to allocate parallel buffers on demand rather than sharing a single buffer, for encryption and COW, leaving compression as the final client of s->cluster_data. That use was still preserved, because if a single compressed cluster is read more than once, we reuse the cache instead of decompressing it a second time (someday, we may come up with better caching to avoid wasting repeated decompressions while still being more parallel, but that is a task for another patch; the XXX comment in qcow2_co_preadv for QCOW2_CLUSTER_COMPRESSED is telling). Much later, in commit de82815d (v2.2), we noticed that a 64M allocation is prone to failure, so we switched over to a graceful memory allocation error message. Elsewhere in the code, we do g_malloc(2 * cluster_size) without ever checking for failure, but even 4M starts to be large enough that trying to be nice is worth the effort, so we want to keep that aspect. Then even later, in 3e4c7052 (2.11), we realized that allocating a large buffer up front for every qcow2 image is expensive, and switched to lazy allocation only for images that actually had compressed clusters. But in the process, we never even bothered to check whether what we were allocating still made sense in its new context! So, it's time to cut back on the waste. A compressed cluster written by qemu will NEVER occupy more than an uncompressed cluster, but based on mid-sector alignment, we may still need to read 1 cluster + 1 sector in order to recover enough bytes for the decompression. Meanwhile, third-party producers of qcow2 may not be as smart, and gzip DOES document that because the compression stream adds metadata, and because of the pigeonhole principle, there are worst case scenarios where attempts to compress will actually inflate an image, by up to 0.015% (at most 1 sector larger for an unfortunate 2M compression), meaning we should realistically expect to sometimes need to read 1 cluster + 2 sectors. However, the qcow2 spec permits an all-ones sector count, plus a full sector containing the initial offset, for a maximum read of 2 full clusters. Thanks to the way decompression works, even though such a value is too large for the actual compressed data (for all but 512-byte clusters), it really doesn't matter if we read too much (gzip ignores slop, once it has decoded a full cluster). So it's easier to just allocate cluster_data to be as large as we can ever possibly see; even if it still wastes up to 2M on any image created by qcow2, that's still an improvment of 60M less waste than pre-patch.
