Actually this is what happens on mainline qemu with cache=off.

Have I understood right that cache=off on a qcow2 image only uses
O_DIRECT for the leaf image, and the chain of base images don't use
O_DIRECT?

Yeah, that's a bug IMHO and in my patch to add O_DSYNC, I fix that. I think an argument for O_DIRECT in a leaf and wb in the leaf is seriously flawed...

Sometimes on a memory constrained host, where the (collective) guest
memory is nearly as big as the host memory, I'm not sure this is what
I want.
