[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 22/22] specs/qcow2: do not use wording 'bitmap header' |
Date: |

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)
