Subject: [PATCH manager v4 3/3] fix #4503: ui: qemu: add detect zeroes disk option
Date: Mon, 17 Aug 2026 16:23:52 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260817142408.111667-4-l.sichert@proxmox.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260817142408.111667-1-l.sichert@proxmox.com>
When discard is enabled, qemu-server defaults to 'detect-zeroes=unmap'.
This can have a significant performance impact for zero writes on some
setups, while users might still want to keep guest discard/TRIM support
enabled.
Expose the option in the disk editor and default it to enabled to match
the backend behavior. Use the true-default property serialization added
previously so that disabling it explicitly writes 'detect_zeroes=0',
while enabling it omits the property.
