Re: [libvirt] [PATCH v2] ZFS: Support sparse volumes

By default, `zfs create -V ...` reserves space for the entire volsize, plus some extra (which attempts to account for overhead). If `zfs create -s -V ...` is used instead, zvols are (fully) sparse. A middle ground (partial allocation) can be achieved with `zfs create -s -o refreservation=... -V ...`. Both libvirt and ZFS support this approach, so the ZFS storage backend should support it.
