Ján Tomko 1c9a2fb1ae storage: allow metadata preallocation when creating qcow2 images
Add VIR_STORAGE_VOL_CREATE_PREALLOC_METADATA flag to virStorageVolCreateXML
and virStorageVolCreateXMLFrom. This flag requests metadata
preallocation when creating/cloning qcow2 images, resulting in creating
a sparse file with qcow2 metadata. It has only slightly larger disk usage
compared to new image with no allocation, but offers higher performance.

         LibVirt : simple API for virtualization

  Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.

Description
Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER Hypervisor.
