Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH 22/22] specs/qcow2: do not use wording 'bitmap header'
Date: Fri, 30 Sep 2016 13:53:28 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1475232808-4852-23-git-send-email-vsementsov@virtuozzo.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1475232808-4852-1-git-send-email-vsementsov@virtuozzo.com>

For now bitmap directory entry some times called 'bitmap header'. This
patch leaves only one name - 'bitmap directory entry'. The name 'bitmap
header' creates misunderstandings with 'qcow2 header' and 'qcow2 bitmap
header extension' (which is extension of qcow2 header)
