[Qemu-block] [PULL 1/1] block: mirror - fix full sync mode when target d


From: Jeff Cody
Subject: [Qemu-block] [PULL 1/1] block: mirror - fix full sync mode when target does not support zero init
Date: Thu, 1 Oct 2015 15:05:28 -0400

During mirror, if the target device does not support zero init, a
mirror may result in a corrupted image for sync="full" mode.

This is due to how the initial dirty bitmap is set up prior to copying
data - we did not mark sectors as dirty that are unallocated.  This
means those unallocated sectors are skipped over on the target, and for
a device without zero init, invalid data may reside in those holes.

If both of the following conditions are true, then we will explicitly
mark all sectors as dirty:

    1.) sync = "full"
    2.) bdrv_has_zero_init(target) == false

If the target does support zero init, but a target image is passed in
with data already present (i.e. an "existing" image), it is assumed the
data present in the existing image is valid data for those sectors.
