[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 0/4] qcow2: Allow runtime specification of cache sizes

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 0/4] qcow2: Allow runtime specification of cache sizes

[Max Reitz]

Currently, the metadata cache size is only tunable on compile time
through macros. However, some users may want to use the minimal cache
size (for whatever reason) and others may want to increase the cache
size because they have enough memory and want to increase performance.

This series adds runtime options for setting the cache size in bytes
(which is an easily comprehensible unit) in various ways (by setting
each cache explicitly or the total size).


This series (patch 2) depends on Markus' series
"[PATCH v2 0/4] block: Use g_new() & friends more".


v2:

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 1/4] qcow2: Constant cache size in bytes

[Max Reitz]

Specifying the metadata cache sizes in clusters results in less clusters
(and much less bytes) covered for small cluster sizes and vice versa.
Using a constant byte size reduces this difference, and makes it
possible to manually specify the cache size in an easily comprehensible
unit.

The factor s->cluster_size is too much, l2_cache_size is already in
clusters. I think one of the other patches in the series fixes this
again, at least I can't see the bug in the final applied version.

If you agree, I'll change this patch while applying to make the series
bisectable.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 2/4] qcow2: Use g_try_new0() for cache array

[Max Reitz]

With a variable cache size, the number given to qcow2_cache_create() may
be huge. Therefore, use g_try_new0().

While at it, use g_new0() instead of g_malloc0() for allocating the
Qcow2Cache object.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 3/4] qcow2: Add runtime options for cache sizes

[Max Reitz]

Add options for specifying the size of the metadata caches. This can
either be done directly for each cache (if only one is given, the other
will be derived according to a default ratio) or combined for both.

Thanks, applied all to the block branch (with patch 1 changed as
commented there).

I'd still like to see the changes to qapi/block-core.json that expose
these for hot-plugging before we call this series finished (I mentioned
that in my review of v1, without realizing that v2 had already been sent).

Yes, we need this. But Max replied there that he'd send a follow-up and
that was good enough for me because my experience is that he is one of
the few people who don't only promise follow-up patches, but actually
send them.
