Subject: [PATCH v7 13/25] parallels: Handle L1 entries equal to one
Date: Thu,  3 Sep 2026 16:41:31 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260903144143.2328870-14-den@openvz.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260903144143.2328870-1-den@openvz.org>

From: Denis V. Lunev <den@openvz.org>

If all the bits in a dirty bitmap cluster are ones, the cluster shouldn't
be written. Instead the corresponding L1 entry should be set to 1.

Ask bdrv_dirty_bitmap_next_zero() for a clean bit in the range the entry
covers, and store the marker when there is none. Two things have to
match the region rather than the cluster which serializes it: the search
is bounded by the end of the region, as a count and not as an offset, and
a missing clean bit is the answer we are looking for rather than a reason
to give up. A dirty run is not a substitute for either. Its length says
nothing about the region it lies in, so comparing it to the cluster size
marks a chunk as all ones when only a cluster worth of it is dirty, and
treating "no clean bit at all" as a failure leaves the entry at zero,
which says the whole chunk is clean.

Both directions are silent: a full disk overwrite comes back as a
completely clean bitmap, and a single dirty cluster comes back as
everything the entry covers being dirty. An incremental backup driven by
the first one copies nothing.

The marker goes through cpu_to_le64() like the cluster offsets below it,
as the loading side reads the table with ldq_le_p(). The serialization
moved behind the check, as there is nothing to write when the marker is
stored.

Based on the original work from Alexander Ivanov.
