[Libguestfs] [PATCH] appliance: extract UUID from QCOW2 disk image

Andrey Shinkevich
Wed, 12 Aug 2020 12:39:42 -0000

For the appliance of the QCOW2 format, get the UUID of the disk by
reading the first 256k bytes with 'qemu-img dd' command. Then pass the
read block to the 'file' command. In case of failure, run the
'file'
command again directly.
