[PATCH] blockcopy: allow larger buf-size

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



While qemu definitely caps granularity to 64 MiB, it places no
limits on buf-size.  On a machine beefy enough for lots of
memory, a buf-size larger than 2 GiB is feasible, so we should
pass a 64-bit parameter.

* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in (VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_COPY_BUF_SIZE):
Allow 64 bits.

Based on Peter's review of my patch series; until we have an
implementation, it is just a doc bug, but I'd rather document
it correctly and avoid baking in a too-small API.
