[PATCH 3/4] qemu-img bitmap: Report errors while closing the image
Posted by Kevin Wolf 1 year, 11 months ago
blk_unref() can't report any errors that happen while closing the image.
For example, if qcow2 hits an -ENOSPC error while writing out dirty
bitmaps when it's closed, it prints error messages to stderr, but
'qemu-img bitmap' won't see any error return value and will therefore
look successful with exit code 0.

In order to fix this, manually inactivate the image first before calling
blk_unref(). This already performs the operations that would be most
likely to fail while closing the image, but it can still return errors.
