support revert and delete the external snapshot which the raw disk based guest.My libvirt
and qemu release are both 3.2.0.So I have a question,the community how to solve it,if have
any plans about it.Can you tell me more about it?Thank you very much.

Adding support for deleting and reverting external snapshots is desired
since qemu does not really want to go forward with internal snanpshots.
The plans for fixing this are indefinite though. I'll probably work on
it but currently I'm working on '-blockdev'-izing of the qemu driver so
I can't really tell you any time frame.

Thank you,Do you want to say the qemu does not really want to go forward with
"external" snanpshots just now?Do you know why the qemu doesn't want to
support it?The external snapshot is so important to our users.Thank you!

Along with what Peter wrote, here's some notes about what you can do
currently to revert to an external snapshot:
