Subject: [PATCH-SERIES v4 pve-storage/qemu-server/pve-qemu] add external qcow2 snapshot support
Date: Tue, 11 Mar 2025 11:28:48 +0100
Message-ID: <20250311102905.2680524-1-alexandre.derumier@groupe-cyllene.com>

This patch series implement qcow2 external snapshot support for files && lvm volumes

The current internal qcow2 snapshots have bad write performance because no metadatas can be preallocated.

This is particulary visible on a shared filesystem like ocfs2 or gfs2.

Also other bugs are freeze/lock reported by users since years on snapshots delete on nfs
(The disk access seem to be frozen during all the delete duration)

This also open doors for remote snapshot export-import for storage replication.

Changelog v4:
     - use blocknode fixed names with sha1+base62
     - use block-stream for snapshot delete
     - qemu : use throttle qom object (no more x-throttle )
     - various cleanup && refactoring from fabian comments

MAIN TODO:
    - convert/implement all the backup code, dirty dirty bitmap, ...
    - iscsi blockdev syntax
    - ceph keyring as blockdev option
    - unit tests
    


storage.cfg example:

dir: local2
        path /var/liv/vz
        content snippets,vztmpl,backup,images,iso,rootdir
        snapext 1

lvm:test
        vgname test
        content images
