[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 00/80] COW: Speed up writes

[Charlie Shepherd <charlie@ctshepherd.com>]

Following on from Paolo's commits 26ae980 and 276cbc7, this patchset
implements some changes he recommended earlier which I didn't previously have
time to do while on GSoC.

Patch 2 was written initially I was intending to use cow_co_is_allocated in
Patch 3 and needed it to consider all sectors but in the end cow_find_streak
was sufficient, so it may not strictly be necessary.
