[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 2/3] docs/qcow2: Correct refcount_block_entries


From: Max Reitz
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 2/3] docs/qcow2: Correct refcount_block_entries
Date: Wed, 3 Sep 2014 00:25:08 +0200

A refblock entry may have a different size than 16 bits, it may even be
smaller than a byte. Correct the refcount_block_entries calculation
accordingly.

 Given a offset into the image file, the refcount of its cluster can be obtained
 as follows:
 
-    refcount_block_entries = (cluster_size / sizeof(uint16_t))
+    refcount_block_entries = (cluster_size * 8 / refcount_bits)
