If qcow2_alloc_clusters() fails, new_offset and ret will both be

being positive instead.

While we're at it, clean up the whole fail path. qcow2_cache_put()
actually can never fail, hence the return value can safely be ignored
I would say "actually should never fail".

Hm, I'm not sure. Currently, it simply cannot fail. The assertion is there basically only for future code changes and to indicate to developers that the function is really known to succeed.

I'll try to make the sentence more specific.

(aside from asserting that it indeed did not fail).

Furthermore, there is no reason to give QCOW2_DISCARD_ALWAYS to
qcow2_free_clusters(), a mere QCOW2_DISCARD_OTHER will suffice.

  fail:
I don't like the label name because its real meaning is exit: it handle both
fail and regular exits.

I'll try to reshape it into a nicer form of nested labels.

The function documentation says:

So why are we returning new_offset on success ?

Because the comment is wrong. I'll fix it. ;-)


Thanks,
