Support for old 32-bit machines
This fixes a bug preventing files > 4GiB being copied on 32-bit machines.
Improved searching for vhd parents
sparse_dd will now search the directory of the src vhd for the parents, rather than the current working directory of the process.
Drop in replacement for XenServer sparse_dd
The sparse_dd tool here
- uses O_DIRECT to avoid polluting caches
- out-of-heap buffers via Cstruct.t so we don't pollute the major heap or perform unnecessary GC
- avoids making extra data copies
- allows SSL to be hard-wired on or off via the config file (ie without recompile)
- avoids piping through client stunnel when SSL is on
- has experimental bypass-tapdisk-for-{read,write} options in the config file
