[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v5 1/9] block: add bdrv_measure() API

[Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>]

bdrv_measure() provides a conservative maximum for the size of a new
image.  This information is handy if storage needs to be allocated (e.g.
a SAN or an LVM volume) ahead of time.

+# @BlockMeasureInfo:
+#
+# Image size calculation information.  This structure describes the size
+# requirements for creating a new image file.
+#
+# The size requirements depend on the new image file format.  File size always
+# equals virtual disk size for the 'raw' format.  Compact formats such as
+# 'qcow2' represent unallocated and zero regions efficiently so file size may
+# be smaller than virtual disk size.
+#
+# The values are upper bounds that are guaranteed to fit the new image file.
+# Subsequent modification, such as internal snapshot or bitmap creation, may
+# require additional space and is not covered here.
+#
+# @required: Size required for a new image file, in bytes.
+#
+# @fully-allocated: Image file size, in bytes, once data has been written
+#                   to all sectors.
+#
+# Since: 2.10
