[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v7 05/42] Add qemu_get_buffer_less_copy to avoid copies some of the time |

From: "Dr. David Alan Gilbert" <address@hidden>
qemu_get_buffer always copies the data it reads to a users buffer,
however in many cases the file buffer inside qemu_file could be given
back to the caller, avoiding the copy. This isn't always possible
depending on the size and alignment of the data.
Thus 'qemu_get_buffer_less_copy' either copies the data to a supplied
buffer or updates a pointer to the internal buffer if convenient.
