RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Fixed in qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.415.el6_5_5.3
Comment 8 Xu Han 2013-11-13 03:22:07 UTC 
Verify this bug with component:
qemu-img-0.12.1.2-2.415.el6_5.3.x86_64

Step:
1. Create an image with 'cluster_size=512,preallocation=metadata', and then query the information.
# time qemu-img create -f qcow2 -o cluster_size=512,preallocation=metadata disk.img 4G; time qemu-img info disk.img

Result:
After step1,
Formatting 'disk.img', fmt=qcow2 size=4294967296 encryption=off cluster_size=512 preallocation='metadata' 

real	5m52.712s
user	0m4.461s
sys	0m11.529s
image: disk.img
file format: qcow2
virtual size: 4.0G (4294967296 bytes)
disk size: 530M
cluster_size: 512

real	0m0.006s
user	0m0.000s
sys	0m0.004s


Also tested with default cluster_size and 'preallocation=metadata', the resule shows below.
# time qemu-img create -f qcow2 -o preallocation=metadata disk.img 4G; time qemu-img info disk.img
Formatting 'disk.img', fmt=qcow2 size=4294967296 encryption=off cluster_size=65536 preallocation='metadata' 

real	0m0.367s
user	0m0.005s
sys	0m0.207s
image: disk.img
file format: qcow2
virtual size: 4.0G (4294967296 bytes)
disk size: 784K
cluster_size: 65536

real	0m0.004s
user	0m0.001s
sys	0m0.002s


Base on these test results above, this bug has been fixed.
