[Qemu-devel] [PATCH V2 0/6] tests: Add the image fuzzer with qcow2 support

[Maria Kustova]

This patch series introduces the image fuzzer, a tool for stability and
reliability testing.
Its approach is to run large amount of tests in background. During every test a
program (e.g. qemu-img) is called to read or modify an invalid test image.
A test image has valid inner structure defined by its format specification with
some fields having random invalid values.

Patch 1 contains documentation for the image fuzzer, patch 2 is the test runner
and remaining ones relate to the image generator for qcow2 format.

This patch series was created for the 'block-next' branch.

v1 -> v2:
* refactored qcow2/layout module
* added support of external fuzzer configurations
* fixed wrong string truncation in qcow2/fuzz module
* fixed documentation typos and ambiguities (based on Eric Blake comments)
* updated documentation with the fuzzer configuration
* add LICENSE file (based on Eric Blake comments)
