42 * A note on the use of MS-GUID fields. For more details on the GUID,
43 * please see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Globally_unique_identifier.
45 * The VHDX specification only states that these are MS GUIDs, and which
46 * bytes are data1-data4. It makes no mention of what algorithm should be used
47 * to generate the GUID, nor what standard. However, looking at the specified
48 * known GUID fields, it appears the GUIDs are:
49 * Standard/DCE GUID type (noted by 10b in the MSB of byte 0 of .data4)
50 * Random algorithm (noted by 0x4XXX for .data3)
