[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 1/3] COW: Speed up writes


From: Charlie Shepherd
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH 1/3] COW: Speed up writes
Date: Wed, 6 Nov 2013 13:23:09 +0100

Process a whole sector's worth of COW bits by reading a sector, setting the 
bits, then writing it
out again. Make sure we only flush once, before writing metadata.
