Fri Oct 6 20:59:23 UTC 2017


Create a shim that will allow other backends to make use of qemu-img
functionality to create or possibly modify the volume.

+ * virStorageBackendCreateVolUsingQemuImg
+ * @conn: Connection pointer
+ * @pool: Storage Pool Object
+ * @vol: Volume definition
+ * @inputvol: Volume to use for creation
+ * @flags: Flags for creation options
+ *
+ * A shim to storageBackendCreateQemuImg to allow other backends to
+ * utilize qemu-img processing in order to create or alter the volume.
+ *
+ * NB: If a volume target format is not supplied (per usual for some
+ * backends), temporarily adjust the format to be RAW. Once completed,
+ * reset the format back to NONE.
+ *
+ * Returns: 0 on success, -1 on failure.
