[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] qcow2: release refcount table clusters of the old t


From: Juergen Keil
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH] qcow2: release refcount table clusters of the old table, after growing the refcount table
Date: Mon, 2 Apr 2007 12:42:23 +0200 (CEST)

Another patch for qcow2:  when the refcount table is grown, clusters for 
the new refcount table are allocated, but the clusters for the old
(now unused) refcount table are not released.

This isn't a big problem, it just wastes a few clusters.

But it results in error messages when block-qcow2.c is compiled with
DEBUG_ALLOC / DEBUG_ALLOC2 error checking, and a qcow2 image has ever
grown the refcount table:


    /* compare ref counts */
    for(i = 0; i < nb_clusters; i++) {
        refcount1 = get_refcount(bs, i);
        refcount2 = refcount_table[i];
        if (refcount1 != refcount2)
            printf("ERROR cluster %d refcount=%d reference=%d\n",
                   i, refcount1, refcount2);
    }
