Ok. will add it.

Do you mean driver must set alias length as always multiple of 2? Why?

Did you mean "no need to allow odd"? or?

Because alias should be unique and need to hold the lock while searching for duplicate.
So it is not done twice, and moving guid_parse() won't help due to need of lock.
