Subject: [PATCH SLOF v3 0/5] GPT fixes/cleanup and LVM support with FAT
Date: Tue, 30 Jun 2015 16:31:16 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1435662081-4293-1-git-send-email-nikunj@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
Following patchset implements some improvements and cleanup for the
GPT booting code:
patch 1: Simplify the gpt detection code with lesser scopes and add
comments.
patch 2: Introduce 8byte LE helpers: x@-le and x!-le
patch 3: Rename block / read-sector to indicate it a allocated buffer
patch 4: As we need to detect FAT partition, implement a helper that
can be used both from GPT code and "fat-bootblock?"
patch 5: Implement GPT FAT for LVM suport and make GPT detection code
robust
Changelog V2:
* Optimize gpt detection code
* Fixed stack comments
* Rename verify-gpt-partition, as it was doing more than that. Added
comments.
