This patch fixes two issues with the current get_partitions() function. First: "Invalid partition table on $disk" will pop up on legitimate images on big endian system. This is because the little-endian representation of "55 AA" is assumed in the context of little-endian architectures. On these comparing it to the 16-bit word 0xAA55 does work as intented. Whereas on big-endian systems, this would have to be 0x55AA. This patch fixes the issue by replacing the integer conversion and value match check with just a string comparision. Second: The extraction of the type, start LBA and LBA num from the partition table has the same endianness issue. This has been fixed by using the new hex_le32_to_cpu() function. This function will translate the stored little-endian data to the correct byte-order if necessary. Signed-off-by: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@gmail.com> |
