bd385a5298d7062668e804d73944d52aec9549f1 qcow2: Don't open data_file with BDRV_O_NO_IO
One use case for 'qemu-img info' is verifying that untrusted images
don't reference an unwanted external file, be it as a backing file or an
external data file. To make sure that calling 'qemu-img info' can't
already have undesired side effects with a malicious image, just don't
open the data file at all with BDRV_O_NO_IO. If nothing ever tries to do
I/O, we don't need to have it open.
This changes the output of iotests case 061, which used 'qemu-img info'
to show that opening an image with an invalid data file fails. After
this patch, it succeeds. Replace this part of the test with a qemu-io
call, but keep the final 'qemu-img info' to show that the invalid data
file is correctly displayed in the output.
