218e99
218e99
this patch adds a efficient encoding for zero blocks by
218e99
adding a new flag indicating a block is completely zero.
218e99
218e99
additionally bdrv_write_zeros() is used at the destination
218e99
to efficiently write these zeroes. depending on the implementation
218e99
this avoids that the destination target gets fully provisioned.
