Hi, The following series adds two parameters to qemu-img map: 1. start-offset: mapping starting offset. 2. max-length: the length of the mapping.
These parameters proved useful when mapping large disk spread across long store file chains. It allows us to bound the execution time of each qemu-img map execution as well as recover from failed mapping operations. In addition the map operation can divided to multiple independent tasks. V2 changes: 1. add error reporting to cvtnum. 2. add image length validation in img_map. 3. rebase over QEMU 5.0. Eyal Moscovici (5): qemu-img: remove check that cvtnum value > MAX_INT qemu_img: add error report to cvtnum qemu-img: validate image length in img_map qemu-img: refactor dump_map_entry JSON format output qemu-img: Add --start-offset and --max-length to map docs/tools/qemu-img.rst | 2 +- qemu-img-cmds.hx | 4 +- qemu-img.c | 106 ++++++++++++++++++++++--------------- tests/qemu-iotests/049.out | 4 +- 4 files changed, 67 insertions(+), 49 deletions(-) -- 2.17.2 (Apple Git-113)
