The patch titled partitions: use sector size for EFI GPT has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was partitions-use-sector-size-for-efi-gpt.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: partitions: use sector size for EFI GPT From: Karel Zak <kzak@xxxxxxxxxx> Currently, kernel uses strictly 512-byte sectors for EFI GPT parsing. That's wrong. UEFI standard (version 2.3, May 2009, 5.3.1 GUID Format overview, page 95) defines that LBA is always based on the logical block size. It means bdev_logical_block_size() (aka BLKSSZGET) for Linux. This patch removes static sector size from EFI GPT parser. The problem is reproducible with the latest GNU Parted: # modprobe scsi_debug dev_size_mb=50 sector_size=4096 # ./parted /dev/sdb print Model: Linux scsi_debug (scsi) Disk /dev/sdb: 52.4MB Sector size (logical/physical): 4096B/4096B Partition Table: gpt Number Start End Size File system Name Flags 1 24.6kB 3002kB 2978kB primary 2 3002kB 6001kB 2998kB primary 3 6001kB 9003kB 3002kB primary # blockdev --rereadpt /dev/sdb # dmesg | tail -1 sdb: unknown partition table <---- !!! with this patch: # blockdev --rereadpt /dev/sdb # dmesg | tail -1 sdb: sdb1 sdb2 sdb3 Signed-off-by: Karel Zak <kzak@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- fs/partitions/efi.c | 21 +++++++++++++-------- 1 file changed, 13 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-) diff -puN fs/partitions/efi.c~partitions-use-sector-size-for-efi-gpt fs/partitions/efi.c --- a/fs/partitions/efi.c~partitions-use-sector-size-for-efi-gpt +++ a/fs/partitions/efi.c @@ -1,7 +1,9 @@ /************************************************************ * EFI GUID Partition Table handling - * Per Intel EFI Specification v1.02 - * http://developer.intel.com/technology/efi/efi.htm + * + * http://www.uefi.org/specs/ + * http://www.intel.com/technology/efi/ + * * efi.[ch] by Matt Domsch <Matt_Domsch@xxxxxxxx> * Copyright 2000,2001,2002,2004 Dell Inc. * @@ -141,7 +143,7 @@ last_lba(struct block_device *bdev) { if (!bdev || !bdev->bd_inode) return 0; - return (bdev->bd_inode->i_size >> 9) - 1ULL; + return (bdev->bd_inode->i_size / bdev_logical_block_size(bdev)) - 1ULL; } static inline int @@ -188,6 +190,7 @@ static size_t read_lba(struct block_device *bdev, u64 lba, u8 * buffer, size_t count) { size_t totalreadcount = 0; + sector_t n = lba * (bdev_logical_block_size(bdev) / 512); if (!bdev || !buffer || lba > last_lba(bdev)) return 0; @@ -195,7 +198,7 @@ read_lba(struct block_device *bdev, u64 while (count) { int copied = 512; Sector sect; - unsigned char *data = read_dev_sector(bdev, lba++, §); + unsigned char *data = read_dev_sector(bdev, n++, §); if (!data) break; if (copied > count) @@ -601,6 +604,7 @@ efi_partition(struct parsed_partitions * gpt_header *gpt = NULL; gpt_entry *ptes = NULL; u32 i; + unsigned ssz = bdev_logical_block_size(bdev) / 512; if (!find_valid_gpt(bdev, &gpt, &ptes) || !gpt || !ptes) { kfree(gpt); @@ -611,13 +615,14 @@ efi_partition(struct parsed_partitions * pr_debug("GUID Partition Table is valid!
