2009-09-11block: use fdatasync instead of fsync if possibleChristoph Hellwig
If we are flushing the caches for our image files we only care about the data (including the metadata required for accessing it) but not things like timestamp updates. So try to use fdatasync instead of fsync to implement the flush operations. Unfortunately many operating systems still do not support fdatasync, so we add a qemu_fdatasync wrapper that uses fdatasync if available as per the _POSIX_SYNCHRONIZED_IO feature macro or fsync otherwise.

2009-06-06qemu-img: Print available options with -o ?Kevin Wolf
This patch adds a small help text to each of the options in the block drivers which can be displayed by using qemu-img create -f fmt -o ? Signed-off-by: Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com>
2009-05-22Convert all block drivers to new bdrv_createKevin Wolf
Now we can make use of the newly introduced option structures. Instead of having bdrv_create carry more and more parameters (which are format specific in most cases), just pass a option structure as defined by the driver itself. bdrv_create2() contains an emulation of the old interface to simplify the transition.
