2010-06-22vpc: Use bdrv_(p)write_sync for metadata writesKevin Wolf
Use bdrv_(p)write_sync to ensure metadata integrity in case of a crash. Signed-off-by: Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com>
2010-06-15vpc: Read/write multiple sectors at onceKevin Wolf
This changes the vpc block driver (for VHD) to read/write multiple sectors at once instead of doing a request for each single sector. Before this, running qemu-iotests for VPC took ages, now it's actually quite reasonable to run it always (down from ~1 hour to 40 seconds for me). Signed-off-by: Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com>
2010-05-17block/vpc: Fix conversion from size to disk geometryStefan Weil
The VHD algorithm calculates a disk geometry which is usually smaller than the requested size. QEMU tried to round up but failed for certain sizes: qemu-img create -f vpc disk.vpc 9437184 would create an image with 9435136 bytes (which is too small for qemu-img convert). Instead of hacking the geometry algorithm, the patch increases the number of sectors until we get enough sectors.

2010-05-03block: Open the underlying image file in generic codeKevin Wolf
Format drivers shouldn't need to bother with things like file names, but rather just get an open BlockDriverState for the underlying protocol. This patch introduces this behaviour for bdrv_open implementation. For protocols which need to access the filename to open their file/device/connection/... a new callback bdrv_file_open is introduced which doesn't get an underlying file opened. For now, also some of the more obscure formats use bdrv_file_open because they open() the file themselves instead of using the block.c functions. They need to be fixed in later patches.

2009-09-09Fix spelling in comment.Stefan Weil
The company which made Virtual PC was Connectix. They use the magic string "conectix" in their disk images. Signed-off-by: Stefan Weil <weil@mail.berlios.de> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2009-08-24eliminate errors about unused results in block/vpc.cNathan Froyd
These errors come up when compiling with gcc-4.3.3 and some older headers: /scratch/froydnj/qemu.git/block/vpc.c: In function 'vpc_create': /scratch/froydnj/qemu.git/block/vpc.c:514: error: value computed is not used /scratch/froydnj/qemu.git/block/vpc.c:516: error: value computed is not used /scratch/froydnj/qemu.git/block/vpc.c:517: error: value computed is not used /scratch/froydnj/qemu.git/block/vpc.c:566: error: value computed is not used Use memcpy to copy the strings instead of strncpy.

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.
