[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 00/12] make dirty-bitmap byte-based

[Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com>]

There are patches floating around to add NBD_CMD_BLOCK_STATUS,
but NBD wants to report status on byte granularity (even if the
reporting will probably be naturally aligned to sectors or even
much higher levels).  I've therefore started the task of
converting our block status code to report at a byte granularity
rather than sectors.

This is part two of that conversion: dirty-bitmap. Other parts
include bdrv_is_allocated (previously submitted) and replacing
bdrv_get_block_status with a byte based callback in all the
drivers (still being written).

Available as a tag at:
git fetch git://repo.or.cz/qemu/ericb.git nbd-byte-dirty-v1

It requires the following (v1 of bdrv_is_allocated, v9 of
blkdebug, and Max's block-next tree):
