[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v8 00/10] qcow2: Allow refcount_bits amendment

[Max Reitz <mreitz@redhat.com>]

This series adds support to qemu for changing the refcount_bits option
of an existing qcow2 file through the qemu-img amend command.

Originally (up until v7), this series was called
"qcow2: Support refcount orders != 4", but by now that support has
already been merged so all that is left is support for qemu-img amend.


v8:
- Rebase onto master (one contextual conflict in an iotest reference
  output, but other than that this only means that the first 15 patches
  are dropped)


git-backport-diff against v7:

Key:
[----] : patches are identical
[####] : number of functional differences between upstream/downstream patch
[down] : patch is downstream-only
The flags [FC] indicate (F)unctional and (C)ontextual differences, respectively
