Subject: [PULL 20/28] qcow2: Prohibit backing file changes in 'qemu-img amend'
Date: Fri, 9 Jul 2021 14:50:27 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210709125035.191321-21-kwolf@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210709125035.191321-1-kwolf@redhat.com>
From: Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com>
This was deprecated back in bc5ee6da7 (qcow2: Deprecate use of
qemu-img amend to change backing file), and no one in the meantime has
given any reasons why it should be supported. Time to make change
attempts a hard error (but for convenience, specifying the _same_
backing chain is not forbidden). Update a couple of iotests to match.
