Hi.

If a base qcow2 image snapshot chain like this:

base.qcow2: [A] -> [B] -> [C]

[C] is the current image where guest read/write to,usually we create a new 
image base on the base.qcow2 like this

qemu-img create -f qcow2 -o backing_file=/path/base.qcow2 new.qcow2

so the data of new.qcow2 is from [C] of base.qcow2, assuming the new.qcow2 has 
not been write to since created.

What I want is that the data of new.qcow2 is from [B] of base.qcow2, like this:

qemu-img create -f qcow2 -o backing_file=/path/base.qcow2,backing_snapshot=B  
new.qcow2

Can the qemu support it now?

Thanks
