Lunev" This patchset provides an ability to create of/write to Parallels images and some testing of the new code. Writes are not optimized now at all, we just modify catalog_bitmap and write those changes to the image itself at once. This will be improved in next steps. This patchset consists of not problematic part of the previous patchset aka [PATCH v4 0/16] parallels format support improvements and new write/create code but it does not contradict questionable code with XML handling there. Kevin, I would appreciate if you will quick look into proof-of-concept patch aka [RFC PATCH 1/1] block/parallels: new concept for DiskDescriptor.xml to validate that approach for DiskDescriptor.xml problem. Changes from v1: - patches 13-19 added, which boosts performance from 800 KiB/sec to near native performance Signed-off-by: Denis V. Lunev CC: Roman Kagan CC: Jeff Cody CC: Kevin Wolf CC: Stefan Hajnoczi P.S. Should I add myself to MAINTAINERS of this driver?
