BlockDriver-bdrv_make_empty() implements zeroing the entire disk for
image formats.  Please extend that function prototype instead of adding
a new interface.

You mean, adding bdrv_make_empty as a function to block.c calling 
drv-bdrv_make_empty if it is defined?

2013-09-24 Thread Peter Lieven
this patch adds a call to completely zero out a block device.
the operation is sped up by checking the block status and
only writing zeroes to the device if they currently do not
return zeroes. optionally the zero writing can be sped up
by setting the flag BDRV_REQ_MAY_UNMAP to emulate the zero
write by unmapping if the driver supports it.
