qemu-img: Speed up compare on pre-allocated larger file
Compare the following images with all-zero contents: $ truncate --size 1M A $ qemu-img create -f qcow2 -o preallocation=off B 1G $ qemu-img create -f qcow2 -o preallocation=metadata C 1G On my machine, the difference is noticeable for pre-patch speeds, with more than an order of magnitude in difference caused by the choice of preallocation in the qcow2 file: $ time ./qemu-img compare -f raw -F qcow2 A B Warning: Image size mismatch! Images are identical. real 0m0.014s user 0m0.007s sys 0m0.007s $ time ./qemu-img compare -f raw -F qcow2 A C Warning: Image size mismatch! Images are identical. real 0m0.341s user 0m0.144s sys 0m0.188s Why? Because bdrv_is_allocated() returns false for image B but true for image C, throwing away the fact that both images know via lseek(SEEK_HOLE) that the entire image still reads as zero. From there, qemu-img ends up calling bdrv_pread() for every byte of the tail, instead of quickly looking for the next allocation. The solution: use block_status instead of is_allocated, giving: $ time ./qemu-img compare -f raw -F qcow2 A C Warning: Image size mismatch! Images are identical. real 0m0.014s user 0m0.011s sys 0m0.003s which is on par with the speeds for no pre-allocation.
