blockcopy preserve original cache mode value

Hello Community, We are observing that after a blockcopy, the disk backend will inherit from original disk's cache mode configuration even though a new cache mode is given. Specifically, the function https://github.com/libvirt/libvirt/blob/cd94d891fb4b5cdda229f58b1dee261d5... which eventually calls qemuDomainPrepareDiskSourceData and override input config. My question is is this on purpose? Because seems like qemu allows different configs. Thnak you very much for the help. -- Best Regards, Jiatong Shen
