Subject: [PULL for-6.0 2/6] block/vdi: Don't assume that blocks are larger than VdiHeader
Date: Wed, 31 Mar 2021 10:50:55 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210331095059.303996-3-stefanha@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210331095059.303996-1-stefanha@redhat.com>

From: David Edmondson <david.edmondson@oracle.com>

Given that the block size is read from the header of the VDI file, a
wide variety of sizes might be seen. Rather than re-using a block
sized memory region when writing the VDI header, allocate an
appropriately sized buffer.
