[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1808928] Re: Bitmap Extra data is not supported

Hi, bitmap extensions have a field that allows us to attach
extra/arbitrary data to them. It is not currently used by QEMU. If this
field is set, it means something corrupted your qcow2.

Please make a backup of your qcow2 file first (because attempting to
repair a broken qcow2 can sometimes make it worse), and then please try
running qemu-img check to try and diagnose the image.

What happened to cause the "disastrous error", do you recall?
