windows qemu-img fails to convert vhdx, assertion failure

[Rafael Rivera]

When attempting to convert Microsoft's 10X emulator image (19563) vhdx [1], qemu-img terminates abruptly with an assertion failure. (Newer versions of the vhdx exhibit the same issue.)

> qemu-img.exe convert flash.vhdx flash.vhd

ERROR:util/iov.c:335:qemu_iovec_concat_iov: assertion failed: (soffset == 0)

The QEMU project is currently moving its bug tracking to another system.
For this we need to know which bugs are still valid and which could be
closed already. Thus we are setting older bugs to "Incomplete" now.

If you still think this bug report here is valid, then please switch
the state back to "New" within the next 60 days, otherwise this report
will be marked as "Expired". Or please mark it as "Fix Released" if
the problem has been solved with a newer version of QEMU already.

Thank you and sorry for the inconvenience.

Still a bug, resetting status per new bug tracker guidance.

Also, re-tested with v6.0.0-11869-g800a25ea45-dirty. Results in error:
ERROR:../../../util/oslib-win32.c:61:qemu_try_memalign: assertion failed: (is_power_of_2(alignment))

[Thomas Huth (th-huth)]

This is an automated cleanup. This bug report has been moved to QEMU's
new bug tracker on gitlab.com and thus gets marked as 'expired' now.
