[Qemu-devel] [PATCH RFC 0/1] block/rbd: increase dynamically the image size |

RBD APIs don't allow us to write more than the maximum size of the file set
with rbd_create() or rbd_resize(), so we are not able to create/use a qcow2
image with the rbd driver.
What I found is the following:
- when qcow2 uses the rbd driver, the new file is created (rbd_create)
with the size equals to 0. (qemu_opt_get_size_del(opts,
BLOCK_OPT_SIZE, 0) returns 0 in qemu_rbd_co_create_opts())
- the file is truncated (implemented with rbd_resize) to 0 before to
write the qcow2 header.
- the "size" parameter passed to rbd_create() or rbd_resize() is
interpreted as the maximum size of the file, this means that all
writes that exceed that size, fails and returns -22.
As a workaround, I'm checking if the RW operations exceed the maximum
size and then I'll resize the file. It works, but I'm not sure it is the
right way.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Stefano
