Qcow2 small IO random write performance will drop dramatically if the l2 cache table could not cover the whole disk. This will be a lot of l2 cache table RW operations if cache miss happens frequently. This patch exports the qcow2 driver parameter l2-cache-size/refcount-cache-size, first added in Qemu 2.2, and cache-clean-interval, first added in Qemu 2.5, in libvirt. change since v4: removed unnecessary cache error check Liu Qing (2): conf, docs: Add qcow2 cache configuration support qemu: add capability checking for qcow2 cache configuration docs/formatdomain.html.in | 41 +++++++++ docs/schemas/domaincommon.rng | 35 ++++++++ src/conf/domain_conf.c | 97 ++++++++++++++++++++-- src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.c | 11 +++ src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.h | 5 ++ src/qemu/qemu_command.c | 33 ++++++++ src/qemu/qemu_driver.c | 5 ++ src/util/virstoragefile.c | 3 + src/util/virstoragefile.h | 6 ++ tests/qemucapabilitiesdata/caps_2.5.0.x86_64.xml | 3 + .../caps_2.6.0-gicv2.aarch64.xml | 3 + .../caps_2.6.0-gicv3.aarch64.xml | 3 + tests/qemucapabilitiesdata/caps_2.6.0.ppc64le.xml | 3 + tests/qemucapabilitiesdata/caps_2.6.0.x86_64.xml | 3 + tests/qemucapabilitiesdata/caps_2.7.0.s390x.xml | 3 + tests/qemucapabilitiesdata/caps_2.7.0.x86_64.xml | 3 + tests/qemucapabilitiesdata/caps_2.8.0.s390x.xml | 3 + tests/qemucapabilitiesdata/caps_2.8.0.x86_64.xml | 3 + tests/qemucapabilitiesdata/caps_2.9.0.ppc64le.xml | 3 + tests/qemucapabilitiesdata/caps_2.9.0.s390x.xml | 3 + tests/qemucapabilitiesdata/caps_2.9.0.x86_64.xml | 3 + .../qemuxml2argv-disk-drive-qcow2-cache.args | 28 +++++++ .../qemuxml2argv-disk-drive-qcow2-cache.xml | 43 ++++++++++ tests/qemuxml2argvtest.c | 4 + .../qemuxml2xmlout-disk-drive-qcow2-cache.xml | 43 ++++++++++ tests/qemuxml2xmltest.c | 1 + 26 files changed, 384 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) create mode 100644 tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-disk-drive-qcow2-cache.args create mode 100644 tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-disk-drive-qcow2-cache.xml create mode 100644 tests/qemuxml2xmloutdata/qemuxml2xmlout-disk-drive-qcow2-cache.xml -- 1.8.3.1 -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
