From 2f2c8d6b371cfc6689affb0b7e463fa2160c9e5b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alberto Garcia Date: Fri, 25 Nov 2016 13:27:43 +0200 Subject: qcow2: Make qcow2_cache_table_release() work only in Linux We are using QEMU_MADV_DONTNEED to discard the memory of individual L2 cache tables. The problem with this is that those semantics are specific to the Linux madvise() system call. Other implementations of madvise() (including the very Linux implementation of posix_madvise()) don't do that, so we cannot use them for the same purpose. This patch makes the code Linux-specific and uses madvise() directly since there's no point in going through qemu_madvise() for this.

However we allow setting it in other systems regardless of whether it works or not. In those systems this option is not simply a no-op: it actually invalidates perfectly valid cache tables for no good reason without freeing their memory. This patch forbids using that option in non-Linux systems.
