We download the guestfs-tools from below git and compile a local

But when we did the test , please see below:
1. In the Windows the Drive D:\ , the real disk usage is about 19.9-17.7 =
2.2G.
[cid]
2. Shutdown VM , then we use virt-sparsify on the qcow2 image, but the size is
still same as before 6.54G.
It is expected the qcow2 is resized to 2.2G , right ?
Any reason for why the disk size is not returned to host ?
Difficult to say. What is the complete output from
virt-sparsify -v -x .... ?

virt-sparsify and some other tools were recently moved into a new
repository:
https://github.com/rwmjones/guestfs-tools
Most Linux distros already ship these tools. You shouldn't really need to
compile it all from source yourself (although of course it is possible and you
are welcome to try).
