[oslo] FFE: Support "qemu-img info" virtual size in QEMU 4.1 and late
Hi,
I request a late feature freeze exception (FFE) for https://review.opendev.org/#/c/686598/ and https://github.com/openstack/oslo.utils/commit/89bccdee95f81ddb54b427d6af172... -- "Support "qemu-img info" virtual size in QEMU 4.1 and later". It will fix an issue that can be blocking for users so it's can be really valuable for operators, if we release it ASAP. They would be delighted if it were included in Train.
Please let me know if you have any concerns or questions. Thank you for your consideration.
Hervé
Tagging with release and requirements as they need to sign off on this.

I guess I'll reiterate my question from the review: Does this need to be in the initial Train release or can we backport it immediately after? Since qemu 4.1.0 released during the Train cycle I would argue that it's fair to backport patches to support it (I'm less sure about the stein patch, but that's a separate topic). If there are consumers of OpenStack who will take the initial Train release and not any subsequent bugfix releases then that would suggest we need to do this now, but I can't imagine anyone locks themselves into the .0 release of a piece of software and refuses to take any bug fixes after that. I'm open to being persuaded otherwise though.
Please let me know if you have any concerns or questions. Thank you for your consideration.

Given that this is a backwards compatible change I think it's fine.
https://github.com/openstack/oslo.utils/compare/3.41.1...89bccdee95f81ddb54b...
the above link shows that this is the only commit (that's code related) as well so no issues here. The only thing we'll need to make sure of is to cherry-pick the requirements update into master (like was just done with the tempest release).
