[Qemu-devel] [PATCH for-4.1] qcow2: Allow -o compat=v3 during qemu-img amend
Posted by Eric Blake 4 years, 10 months ago
Commit b76b4f60 allowed '-o compat=v3' as an alias for the
less-appealing '-o compat=1.1' for 'qemu-img create' since we want to
use the QMP form as much as possible, but forgot to do likewise for
qemu-img amend.  Also, it doesn't help that '-o help' doesn't list our
new preferred spellings.

I'm arguing that the lack of consistency is a bug, even though the bug
has been present since 2.12.

This broke qemu-iotests 082. Please send a follow-up to update the
reference output.

I know that I did not specifically run iotests explicitly for this one
patch, but thought I had at least ran 'make check', since I know we've
been improving lately to run at least some of the iotests.

/me goes and rechecks...

well, 82 is definitely marked 'auto', and group claims that auto tests
will be run by 'make check', but that didn't trigger the failure for me.
 I wonder why?  At least I've posted the fix, as requested.

Thanks, applied to the block branch.

I found this bug while chasing down another one: trying to see if we can
now lift our restriction against 'qemu-img resize' on an image with
internal snapshots.  For v3 images, the limitation is artificial (the
spec says every snapshot is required to have an associated size, so you
know what size to change back to when reverting to that snapshot); but
for v2 the limitation is real (the spec did not require tracking image
size, and therefore changing the size meant that you might not be able
to safely revert).  Except that we ALSO have a bug in qemu-img amend:

1. Create a v2 file with internal snapshot. On CentOS 6:
$ qemu-img create -f qcow2 file 1m
$ qemu-img snapshot -c s1 file
2. Check that the internal snapshot header uses the smaller size:
$ od -Ax -j64 -N8 -tx1 file  # Learn the offset for the next command
$ offset=$((0x50000+36))
$ od -Ax -j$offset -N 4 -tx1 file
 => extra field is 0
3. Upgrade it to v3. Using qemu.git master:
$ qemu-img amend -o compat=1.1 file
4. Check the internal snapshot header size:
$ od -Ax -j64 -N8 -tx1 file  # Learn the offset for the next command
$ offset=$((0x50000+36))
$ od -Ax -j$offset -N 4 -tx1 file
 => oops - extra field is still 0, but should now be at least 16.

Oh, and 'qemu-img check file' fails to diagnose the v3 image as
violating the qcow2 spec.
