-Calculate the 'check bytes' for the provided CRC64. If these bytes are appended to the original buffer, then the new total CRC64 should be -1. The CRC64 of the buffer is provided as is a pointer to the end of the buffer (where the inverted CRC will be written). The end-of-buffer pointer need not be aligned.
+Calculate the 'check bytes' for the provided CRC64. If these bytes are appended to the original buffer with a CRC64 value 'cs', then the new total CRC64 of the buffer with the check bytes appended should be -1. The check bytes are written to the location specified by the 'check_bytes' pointer. This pointer need not be aligned.
