pve-qemu-qoup/debian/patches/pve/0038-block-io-accept-NULL-qiov-in-bdrv_pad_request.patch
Fiona Ebner 4b7975e75d update submodule and patches to QEMU 8.1.5
Most notable fixes from a Proxmox VE perspective are:

* "virtio-net: correctly copy vnet header when flushing TX"
  To prevent a stack overflow that could lead to leaking parts of the
  QEMU process's memory.
* "hw/pflash: implement update buffer for block writes"
  To prevent an edge case for half-completed writes. This potentially
  affected EFI disks.
* Fixes to i386 emulation and ARM emulation.

No changes for patches were necessary (all are just automatic context
changes).

Subject: [PATCH] block/io: accept NULL qiov in bdrv_pad_request
Some operations, e.g. block-stream, perform reads while discarding the
results (only copy-on-read matters). In this case they will pass NULL as
the target QEMUIOVector, which will however trip bdrv_pad_request, since
it wants to extend its passed vector.
Simply check for NULL and do nothing, there's no reason to pad the
target if it will be discarded anyway.
