Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH 0/12] Adding VMDK monolithic flat support
Date: Sat, 4 Jun 2011 08:39:54 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <BANLkTi=w2RVtUU8PJK0Lkc=KXM3rH_XgUQ@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
This is a split patch series of the previous monolithic flat support
version, with improvements according to Kevin's comments.
Original comment:
VMDK multiple file images can not be recognized for now. This patch is
adding monolithic flat support to it, that is the image type with two
files, one text descriptor file and a plain data file. This type of
image can be created in VMWare, with the options "allocate all disk
space now" and "store virtual disk as a single file" checked.
A VmdkExtent structure is introduced to hold the image "extent"
information, which makes further adding multi extents support of VMDK
easy. An image creating option "flat" is added for creating flat
(preallocated) image.
