Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH 0/2] qcow2: Drop REFCOUNT_SHIFT
Date: Fri, 29 Aug 2014 23:45:25 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1409348727-17183-1-git-send-email-mreitz@redhat.com> (raw)

In preparation for qemu maybe actually supporting variable refcount
widths in the far future, drop the hardcoded REFCOUNT_SHIFT and instead
use the value as given by the image.

Also, the qcow2 documentation gave the width of a refcount block entry
as sizeof(uint16_t), which is wrong for any refcount order other than 4.
Fix that.

This is a follow-up to my "[PATCH v5 00/11] qcow2: Fix image repairing"
series and therefore depends on it.
