[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 1/3] block-qcow2: keep highest allocated offset

[Luiz Capitulino]

From: Uri Lublin <address@hidden>

We want to know the highest allocated offset for qcow2 images.

It can be useful for allocating more diskspace for an image
(e.g. an lvm logical volume) before we run out-of-disk-space.

In this version image refcount table is not scanned.
Also highest-alloc is not kept when the process exits.
Thus it only keeps the highest offset of the current run.
