How are users supposed to make use of this? bs->backing_file isn't set during parallels_open(), so you generally dont' get a backing file. Users might manually add -drive backing=..., but is there really no support for storing the backing file in the image format? If so, perhaps it's better not to support backing files at all here. Kevin
