[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 11/12] block/qapi: Ignore filters on top for format name

[Max Reitz]

bdrv_query_image_info() currently deduces the image filename and the
format name from the top BDS. However, it is probably more reasonable to
ignore as many filters as possible on top of the BDS chain since those
neither change the type nor the filename of the underlying image.

Filters like quorum which have multiple underlying BDS should not be
removed, however, since the underlying BDS chains may lead to different
image formats and most certainly to different filenames. Therefore, only
simple filters with a single underlying BDS may be skipped.

In addition, any "raw" BDS on top of such a simple filter should be
removed, since they have probably been automatically created by
bdrv_open() but basically function as a simple filter as well.
