[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] block/vmdk.c: Fixed major bug in VMDK WRITE and READ handling - FIXES DATA CORRUPTION

[Gerhard Wiesinger]

Fixed a MAJOR BUG in VMDK files on file boundaries on reads
and ALSO ON WRITES WHICH MIGHT CORRUPT THE IMAGE AND DATA!!!!!!

Triggered for example with the following VMDK file (partly listed):
# Extent description
RW 4193792 FLAT "XP-W1-f001.vmdk" 0
RW 2097664 FLAT "XP-W1-f002.vmdk" 0
RW 4193792 FLAT "XP-W1-f003.vmdk" 0
RW 512 FLAT "XP-W1-f004.vmdk" 0
RW 4193792 FLAT "XP-W1-f005.vmdk" 0
RW 2097664 FLAT "XP-W1-f006.vmdk" 0
RW 4193792 FLAT "XP-W1-f007.vmdk" 0
RW 512 FLAT "XP-W1-f008.vmdk" 0

Patch includes:
1.) Patch fixes wrong calculation on extent boundaries. Especially it fixes the 
relativeness of the sector number to the current extent.

Verfied correctness with:
1.) Converted either with Virtualbox to VDI and then with qemu-img and then 
with qemu-img only
VBoxManage clonehd --format vdi /VM/XP-W/new/XP-W1.vmdk 
~/.VirtualBox/Harddisks/XP-W1-new-test.vdi
./qemu-img convert -O raw ~/.VirtualBox/Harddisks/XP-W1-new-test.vdi 
/root/QEMU/VM-XP-W1/XP-W1-via-VBOX.img
md5sum /root/QEMU/VM-XP-W/XP-W1-direct.img
md5sum /root/QEMU/VM-XP-W/XP-W1-via-VBOX.img
=> same MD5 hash
2.) Verified debug log files
3.) Run Windows XP successfully
4.) chkdsk run successfully without any errors
