[PATCH] kpartx: work correctly with empty GPT table

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



When running the partition table probes, the code considered empty
tables as invalid ones. Because of this, kpartx -u / -d does not work
correctly on empty tables (with zero partitions).

The return value of the probes should be:
-1: not our partition table type
0: our partition table, but no partitions exist
>0: number of partitions found

Adapt read_gpt_pt() to this semantics.
