From 26536c7fc25917d1bd13781f81fe3ab039643bff Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Max Reitz Date: Wed, 18 Sep 2019 11:51:39 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] block: Do not truncate file node when formatting There is no reason why the format drivers need to truncate the protocol node when formatting it. When using the old .bdrv_co_create_ops() interface, the file will be created with no size option anyway, which generally gives it a size of 0. (Exceptions are block devices, which cannot be truncated anyway.) When using blockdev-create, the user must have given the file node some size anyway, so there is no reason why we should override that. qed is an exception, it needs the file to start completely empty (as explained by c743849bee7333c7ef256b7e12e34ed6f907064f).
