+ * @image_dev_id:
+ *	ID of the snapshot image block device.
+ * @capacity:
+ *	The size of the snapshot image in sectors must be equal to the size
+ *	of the original device at the time of taking the snapshot.
+ * @is_ready:
+ *	The flag means that the snapshot image is ready for processing
+ *	I/O requests.
+ * @worker:
+ *	The worker thread for processing I/O requests.
+ * @worker_task:
+ *	A pointer to the &struct task of the worker thread.
+ * @tag_set:
+ *	Area to keep a shared tag map.
+ * @disk:
+ *	A pointer to the &struct gendisk for the image block device.
+ * @diff_area:
+ *	A pointer to the owned &struct diff_area.
+ * @cbt_map:
+ *	A pointer to the owned &struct cbt_map.
+ *
+ * The snapshot image is presented in the system as a block device. But
+ * when reading or writing a snapshot image, the data is redirected to
+ * the original block device or to the block device of the difference storage.
+ *
+ * The module does not prohibit reading and writing data to the snapshot
+ * from different threads in parallel. To avoid the problem with simultaneous
+ * access, it is enough to open the snapshot image block device with the
+ * FMODE_EXCL parameter.
