From f252080453ec081ba653bba4e0c1ca86c52cf19f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Max Reitz Date: Wed, 9 Oct 2013 10:34:10 +0200 Subject: qcow2: Alignment of snapshot table entries The qcow2 specification does not explicitly state so far that every snapshot table entry is aligned to 8 bytes. QEMU, in contrast, does this alignment, thus it should be properly documented (which this patch does).
