From 5cf899e21555d57b9ee1d0a8256f9a2230e88658 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Blake Date: Mon, 22 May 2023 13:46:31 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] qcow2: Explicit mention of padding bytes Although we already covered the need for padding bytes with our changes in commit 3ae3fcfa, commit 66fcbca5 (both v5.0.0) added one byte and relied on the rest of the text for implicitly covering 7 padding bytes. For consistency with other parts of the header (such as the header extension format listing padding from n - m, or the snapshot table entry listing variable padding), we might as well call out the remaining 7 bytes as padding until such time (as any) as they gain another meaning.
