You mean because n_end is now relative to start_sect instead of
start_sect + end, right?
I thought about it and I find this code is a bit confusing, but I think
you're right that I need to replace n_end as well because it would be
wrong for an allocating request than spans multiple clusters. I think
this one should be right, would you agree?
ret = copy_sectors(bs, start_sect, cluster_offset,
m->nb_available, align_offset(m->nb_available, s->cluster_sectors));
The interesting question is why qemu-iotests doesn't catch it.
