Of course, if you fix this, what you end up with here is a duplicate of the code path for non-compressed images. The remaining difference seems to be the BDRV_REQ_WRITE_COMPRESSED flag and buffer_is_zero() vs. is_allocated_sectors_min() (because uncompressed clusters can be written partially, but compressed clusters can't). So I suppose that instead of just fixing the above bug, we could actually mostly unify the two code paths, if you want to have a try at it.

I have a try to unify the code. I don't understand why use is_allocated_sectors_min when don't compressed. the s->min_sparse is 8 default, which is smaller than cluster_sectors. if a cluster which data is 8 sector zero and 8 sector non-zero repeated, it will call blk_co_pwritev and blk_co_pwrite_zeroes many times for a cluster. why not compare the zero by cluster_sectors size? > > So I suppose that instead of just fixing the above bug, we could actually > mostly unify the two code paths, if you want to have a try at it. > > Kevin ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread
