Sparse streams (e.g. ``virsh vol-download --sparse`` or ``virsh vol-upload
--sparse``) now handle if one of the stream ends is a block device.
* Remove NVDIMM auto-alignment for pSeries Guests
This feature was introduced in libvirt v6.2.0 as part of the overall
NVDIMM support for pSeries guests. The idea was to relieve the user
from knowing ppc64 alignment details, but the end result is that we
ended up with inconsistencies between domain XML and actual NVDIMM
size the guest is using. To promote consistency between domain XML
and the guest, unaligned NVDIMM sizes for pSeries guests will now be
forbidden and no size auto-alignment will be made. Instead, libvirt will
suggest an aligned round up size for the user.
