qemu-img: Enable BDRV_REQ_MAY_UNMAP in convert
With Kevin's "block: Fix slow pre-zeroing in qemu-img convert"[1]
(commit c9fdcf202f, 'qemu-img: Use BDRV_REQ_NO_FALLBACK for
pre-zeroing') we skip the pre zero step called like this:
blk_make_zero(s->target, BDRV_REQ_MAY_UNMAP | BDRV_REQ_NO_FALLBACK)
And we write zeroes later using:
blk_co_pwrite_zeroes(s->target,
sector_num << BDRV_SECTOR_BITS,
n << BDRV_SECTOR_BITS, 0);
Since we use flags=0, this is translated to NBD_CMD_WRITE_ZEROES with
NBD_CMD_FLAG_NO_HOLE flag, which cause the NBD server to allocated space
instead of punching a hole.
Here is an example failure:
$ dd if=/dev/urandom of=src.img bs=1M count=5
$ truncate -s 50m src.img
$ truncate -s 50m dst.img
$ nbdkit -f -v -e '' -U nbd.sock file file=dst.img
$ ./qemu-img convert -n src.img nbd:unix:nbd.sock
We can see in nbdkit log that it received the NBD_CMD_FLAG_NO_HOLE
(may_trim=0):
nbdkit: file[1]: debug: newstyle negotiation: flags: export 0x4d
nbdkit: file[1]: debug: pwrite count=2097152 offset=0
nbdkit: file[1]: debug: pwrite count=2097152 offset=2097152
nbdkit: file[1]: debug: pwrite count=1048576 offset=4194304
nbdkit: file[1]: debug: zero count=33554432 offset=5242880 may_trim=0
nbdkit: file[1]: debug: zero count=13631488 offset=38797312 may_trim=0
nbdkit: file[1]: debug: flush
And the image became fully allocated:
$ qemu-img info dst.img
virtual size: 50M (52428800 bytes)
disk size: 50M
With this change we see that nbdkit did not receive the
NBD_CMD_FLAG_NO_HOLE (may_trim=1):
nbdkit: file[1]: debug: newstyle negotiation: flags: export 0x4d
nbdkit: file[1]: debug: pwrite count=2097152 offset=0
nbdkit: file[1]: debug: pwrite count=2097152 offset=2097152
nbdkit: file[1]: debug: pwrite count=1048576 offset=4194304
nbdkit: file[1]: debug: zero count=33554432 offset=5242880 may_trim=1
nbdkit: file[1]: debug: zero count=13631488 offset=38797312 may_trim=1
nbdkit: file[1]: debug: flush
And the file is sparse as expected:
$ qemu-img info dst.img
virtual size: 50M (52428800 bytes)
disk size: 5.0M
