Description Neil Wilson 2012-10-09 09:33:26 UTC
Description of problem:

If your raw source image happens to be zero length then qemu-img convert fails with a floating point exception


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Version     : 0.12.1.2
Release     : 2.295.el6_3.2



How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. touch zero-image
2. qemu-img convert zero-image /tmp/fred
  
Actual results:

$ qemu-img convert zero-image /tmp/fred
Floating point exception


Expected results:

qemu-img should copy the zero length file


Additional info:

qemu-img info works fine on a zero length file


$ qemu-img info zero-image 
image: zero-image
file format: raw
virtual size: 0 (0 bytes)
disk size: 0

# qemu-img info  test1.qcow2
image: test1.qcow2
file format: qcow2
virtual size: 0 (0 bytes)
