[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 4/6] file-posix: Support BDRV_REQ_NO_FALLBACK for ze


From: Kevin Wolf
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH 4/6] file-posix: Support BDRV_REQ_NO_FALLBACK for zero writes
Date: Fri, 22 Mar 2019 14:21:45 +0100

We know that the kernel implements a slow fallback code path for
BLKZEROOUT, so if BDRV_REQ_NO_FALLBACK is given, we shouldn't call it.
The other operations we call in the context of .bdrv_co_pwrite_zeroes
should usually be quick, so no modification should be needed for them.
If we ever notice that there are additional problematic cases, we can
still make these conditional as well.
