/*
- * This is what a UUID string looks like.
+ * UUID - Universally Unique IDentifier - 128 bits unique number.
+ * There are 5 versions and one variant of UUID defined by RFC4122
+ * specification. Depends on version uuid number base on a time,
+ * host name, MAC address or random data.
+ *
+ * UUID binary format (16 bytes):
+ *
+ * 4B-2B-2B-2B-6B (big endian - network byte order)
+ *
+ * UUID string is 36 length of characters (36 bytes):
+ *
+ * 0 9 14 19 24
+ * xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx
+ * be be be be be
+ *
+ * where x is a hexadecimal character. Fields are separated by '-'s.
+ * When converting to a binary UUID, le means the field should be converted
+ * to little endian and be means it should be converted to big endian.
*
- * x is a hexadecimal character. fields are separated by '-'s. When converting
- * to a binary UUID, le means the field should be converted to little endian,
- * and be means it should be converted to big endian.
+ * UUID is also used as GUID (Globally Unique Identifier) with the same binary
+ * format but it differs in string format like below.
*
+ * GUID:
* 0 9 14 19 24
* xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx
* le le le be be
+ *
+ * GUID is used e.g. in GPT (GUID Partition Table) as a partiions unique id.
