Sorry for the dumb question, but I'm sleepy right now. If you have your superblock set at 4 KiB blocks and a device is natively 512 B blocks, let's say, it would be possible to have a partial 4 KiB block at the end of the device if the device size doesn't happen to be a multiple of the larger block size. Am I right in assuming the size of the partial block is stored in buffer_head -> b_size ? And that it correctly reads the partial block and stores it without problem? (And on a side note, is buffer_head -> b_blocknr measured with the working block size or with the hardsect size? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send an email with "unsubscribe kernelnewbies" to ecartis@xxxxxxxxxxxx Please read the FAQ at http://kernelnewbies.org/FAQ
