[PULL 27/34] qcow2: Add subcluster support to handle_alloc_space()


From: Max Reitz
Subject: [PULL 27/34] qcow2: Add subcluster support to handle_alloc_space()
Date: Tue, 25 Aug 2020 10:33:04 +0200

From: Alberto Garcia <berto@igalia.com>

The bdrv_co_pwrite_zeroes() call here fills complete clusters with
zeroes, but it can happen that some subclusters are not part of the
write request or the copy-on-write. This patch makes sure that only
the affected subclusters are overwritten.

A potential improvement would be to also fill with zeroes the other
subclusters if we can guarantee that we are not overwriting existing
data. However this would waste more disk space, so we should first
evaluate if it's really worth doing.
