Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 1/6] qcow2: flush refcount cache correctly in alloc_refcount_block()
Date: Mon,  4 Mar 2013 15:02:30 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1362405755-3308-2-git-send-email-stefanha@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1362405755-3308-1-git-send-email-stefanha@redhat.com>

update_refcount() affects the refcount cache, it does not write to disk.
Therefore bdrv_flush(bs->file) does nothing.  We need to flush the
refcount cache in order to write out the refcount updates!

While we're here also add error returns when qcow2_cache_flush() fails.
