[PATCH v1 1/8] qcow2: introduce compression type feature


From: Denis Plotnikov
Subject: [PATCH v1 1/8] qcow2: introduce compression type feature
Date: Thu, 27 Feb 2020 10:29:46 +0300

The patch adds some preparation parts for incompatible compression type
feature to Qcow2 that indicates which allow to use different compression
methods for image clusters (de)compressing.

It is implied that the compression type is set on the image creation and
can be changed only later by image conversion, thus compression type
defines the only compression algorithm used for the image, and thus,
for all image clusters.

The goal of the feature is to add support of other compression methods
to qcow2. For example, ZSTD which is more effective on compression than ZLIB.

The default compression is ZLIB. Images created with ZLIB compression type
are backward compatible with older qemu versions.
