    software/kvm: roll a full backup on an oversized chain · 9cf8265e
    Łukasz Nowak authored
    qmpbackup --level auto never restarts the chain, so a guest which
    rewrites its disk grows the backup past the size of the disk image
    itself, with 48G images seen backed up in 114G.
    
    The exporter starts a new chain once the increments sum up to more than
    backup-rolling-full-ratio times the full backup they follow, and
    deletes the chain first, as the partition is not sized for the chain
    and a second full backup.
