Guys,
gpt_probe() function doesn't check for GPT_HEADER_SIGNATURE in the backup
copy of partition table if the gpt signature is not found in the primary table.
if (ped_device_read(dev, pth_raw, 1, GPT_HEADER_SECTORS)
|| ped_device_read(dev, pth_raw, dev->length - 1, GPT_HEADER_SECTORS)) {
gpt = pth_new_from_raw (dev, pth_raw);
if (gpt->Signature == PED_CPU_TO_LE64(GPT_HEADER_SIGNATURE))
gpt_sig_found = 1;
}
If the signature is not found in the primary header, it doesn't check for it in
the secondary header.
Is this a bug ?
Shouldn't we check for the gpt signature in the backup header in case it is not
foung in the primary header?
thanks,
rahul
