v24:
01: add "compression_type" to the tests output [Max]
hopefully, I've found them all.
v23:
Undecided: whether to add zstd(zlib) compression
details to the qcow2 spec
03: tighten assertion on zstd decompression [Eric]
04: use _rm_test_img appropriately [Max]

03: remove assignemnt in if condition
v21:
03:
* remove the loop on compression [Max]
* use designated initializers [Max]
04:
* don't erase user's options [Max]
* use _rm_test_img [Max]
* add unsupported qcow2 options [Max]
v20:
04: fix a number of flaws [Vladimir]
* don't use $RAND_FILE passing to qemu-io,
so check $TEST_DIR is redundant
* re-arrage $RAND_FILE writing
* fix a typo
v19:
04: fix a number of flaws [Eric]
* remove rudundant test case descriptions
* fix stdout redirect
* don't use (())
* use peek_file_be instead of od
* check $TEST_DIR for spaces and other before using
* use $RAND_FILE safer
v18:
* 04: add quotes to all file name variables [Vladimir]
* 04: add Vladimir's comment according to "qemu-io write -s"
option issue.
v17:
* 03: remove incorrect comment in zstd decompress [Vladimir]
* 03: remove "paraniod" and rewrite the comment on decompress [Vladimir]
* 03: fix dead assignment [Vladimir]
* 04: add and remove quotes [Vladimir]
* 04: replace long offset form with the short one [Vladimir]
v16:
* 03: ssize_t for ret, size_t for zstd_ret [Vladimir]
* 04: small fixes according to the comments [Vladimir]
v15:
* 01: aiming qemu 5.1 [Eric]
* 03: change zstd_res definition place [Vladimir]
* 04: add two new test cases [Eric]
1. test adjacent cluster compression with zstd
2. test incompressible cluster processing
* 03, 04: many rewording and gramma fixing [Eric]
v14:
* fix bug on compression - looping until compress == 0 [Me]
* apply reworked Vladimir's suggestions:
1. not mixing ssize_t with size_t
2. safe check for ENOMEM in compression part - avoid overflow
3. tolerate sanity check allow zstd to make progress only
on one of the buffers
v13:
* 03: add progress sanity check to decompression loop [Vladimir]
03: add successful decompression check [Me]
v12:
* 03: again, rework compression and decompression loops
to make them more correct [Vladimir]
03: move assert in compression to more appropriate place
[Vladimir]
v11:
* 03: the loops don't need "do{}while" form anymore and
the they were buggy (missed "do" in the beginning)
replace them with usual "while(){}" loops [Vladimir]
v10:
* 03: fix zstd (de)compressed loops for multi-frame
cases [Vladimir]
v9:
* 01: fix error checking and reporting in qcow2_amend compression type part
[Vladimir]
* 03: replace asserts with -EIO in qcow2_zstd_decompression [Vladimir,
Alberto]
* 03: reword/amend/add comments, fix typos [Vladimir]
v8:
* 03: switch zstd API from simple to stream [Eric]
No need to state a special cluster layout for zstd
compressed clusters.
v7:
* use qapi_enum_parse instead of the open-coding [Eric]
* fix wording, typos and spelling [Eric]
v6:
* "block/qcow2-threads: fix qcow2_decompress" is removed from the series
since it has been accepted by Max already
* add compile time checking for Qcow2Header to be a multiple of 8 [Max,
Alberto]
* report error on qcow2 amending when the compression type is actually
chnged [Max]
* remove the extra space and the extra new line [Max]
* re-arrange acks and signed-off-s [Vladimir]
v5:
* replace -ENOTSUP with abort in qcow2_co_decompress [Vladimir]
* set cluster size for all test cases in the beginning of the 287 test
v4:
* the series is rebased on top of 01 "block/qcow2-threads: fix
qcow2_decompress"
* 01 is just a no-change resend to avoid extra dependencies. Still, it may
be merged in separate
v3:
* remove redundant max compression type value check [Vladimir, Eric]
(the switch below checks everything)
* prevent compression type changing on "qemu-img amend" [Vladimir]
* remove zstd config setting, since it has been added already by
"migration" patches [Vladimir]
* change the compression type error message [Vladimir]
* fix alignment and 80-chars exceeding [Vladimir]
v2:
* rework compression type setting [Vladimir]
* squash iotest changes to the compression type introduction patch
[Vladimir, Eric]
* fix zstd availability checking in zstd iotest [Vladimir]
* remove unnecessry casting [Eric]
* remove rudundant checks [Eric]
* fix compressed cluster layout in qcow2 spec [Vladimir]
* fix wording [Eric, Vladimir]
* fix compression type filtering in iotests [Eric]
v1:
the initial series
Denis Plotnikov (4):
qcow2: introduce compression type feature
qcow2: rework the cluster
