What does the line for hdc show in /etc/fstab?  Mount tries whichever 
filesystem(s) is/are listed there if you omit -t.  My guess is that it 
only lists udf and this is a cd so it contains iso9660, not udf.

I think the blkid code started out as a copy of the code in mount(8),
but since then they may have developed independently.

Anyway, mount, blkid, vol_id all think that they see udf.
But the kernel cannot handle this type of udf.

>  I'd like to see the CD image (or at least first 2Mb).

Ha, I hoped that someone would say that.
(But do you still want it if I say that it is mostly
a kernel problem?)

By the way, unfortunately a CD image does not work quite the same
as the real thing.

In udf/lowlevel.c you can read

unsigned int
udf_get_last_session(struct super_block *sb) {
...
i = ioctl_by_bdev(bdev, CDROMMULTISESSION, ...

and this ioctl will succeed on a CDROM, but fail on a loop device. Ach.

Now what goes wrong? In udf/inode.c/udf_current_aext there is support
for allocation types ICBTAG_FLAG_AD_SHORT (0) and ICBTAG_FLAG_AD_LONG (1)
and for no other types. However, ECMA 167 writes (in 14.6.8):

0-2 Shall be interpreted as a 3-bit unsigned binary number as follows.
The value 0 shall mean that Short Allocation Descriptors are used.
The value 1 shall mean that Long Allocation Descriptors are used.
The value 2 shall mean that Extended Allocation Descriptors are used.
The value 3 shall mean that the file shall be treated as though
it had exactly one allocation descriptor describing an extent
which starts with the first byte of the Allocation Descriptors field
and has a length, in bytes, recorded in the Length of Allocation
Descriptors field.
The values of 4-7 are reserved for future standardisation.

and this particular CD-ROM uses type 3.
So, I guess udf_current_aext() must be updated a bit.

 I'd like to see the CD image (or at least first 2Mb). Also try:

I think the CD contains both ISO-9660 and UDF filesystems, but the
latter is just faulty.

Ok, like said, this comes from udf_fill_super(), but which shouldn't

have tried to mount a non-UDF filesystem as UDF (unless explicitly asked

I don't think that is what CD-BRIDGE means -- so no kernel flaw :-)
What happened here is simply that in the absence of a "-t" option,
mount(8) defaulted (probably due to incorrect heuristics?) to UDF for
some reason, thereby obviously failing. I don't know who maintains
mount(8) / util-linux package, or do distributions have their own

You already got the relevant part of the dmesg log. Slightly more below.

I think the filesystem can be treated both as iso9660 and as udf,
at least that is what I seem to recall CD-BRIDGE means.  Thus,
if the kernel cannot mount it as udf, I think it is a kernel flaw.
Given that kernel flaw, and the fact that mounting as iso9660 works,
mount(8) could work around the kernel problem by guessing iso9660.
But maybe we should first try to fix the kernel.

Could you send the complete dmesg log, and what you mean with filesystem/
kernel (incorrectly?) announcing it as UDF here ... I agree with Jan,
this sounds like an issue with mount(8) to me.

  Yes, this seems like a mount problem but you should contact mount
maintainer for that... I guess hardly anyone will help you with this on
this list.

  I'm kind of taking care about UDF in kernel. What do you find
inappropriate on the kernel reaction? You mean we should produce some
better error message into the log?

Re: iso9660 vs udf

2007-09-18 Thread Jan Kara
 Today I got a CD. MacOS does not mount it and Linux does not
 mount it without an explicit filesystemtype option.
 That is,
   # mount /dev/hdc /dir -t iso9660
 works fine, but
   # mount /dev/hdc /dir
   mount: you didn't specify a filesystem type for /dev/hdc
I will try type udf
 mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdc,
missing codepage or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail  or so
   # dmesg | tail
 UDF-fs INFO UDF 0.9.8.1 (2004/29/09) Mounting volume 'Wisk1956-82', 
 timestamp 2006/03/07 16:26 (1078)
 udf: udf_read_inode(ino 547) failed !bh
 UDF-fs: Error in udf_iget, block=1, partition=1
 
 Google gave me half a dozen other people that mentioned the same
 problem (with the same inode 547). Clearly some CD mastering software
 produces a format that Linux and MacOS do not handle easily.
 
 One result of this letter will be that people with the same problem
 learn via Google that using the -t iso9660 option may help.
 
 What goes wrong on the mount side is that when it hesitates between
 iso9660 and udf it decides for udf when seeing NSR02.
 Maybe the heuristics in mount should be tuned.
  Yes, this seems like a mount problem but you should contact mount
maintainer for that... I guess hardly anyone will help you with this on
this list.

 On the other hand, this filesystem announces itself as UDF
 (CD-RTOS CD-BRIDGE CDUDF File System - Adaptec Inc),
 perhaps the kernel code should be more robust.
 
 If anybody feels responsible for mount and/or this kernel area
 we might discuss.

 Could you send the complete dmesg log, and what you mean with filesystem/
 kernel (incorrectly?) announcing it as UDF here ... I agree with Jan,
 this sounds like an issue with mount(8) to me.

You already got the relevant part of the dmesg log. Slightly more below.

I think the filesystem can be treated both as iso9660 and as udf,
at least that is what I seem to recall CD-BRIDGE means.  Thus,
if the kernel cannot mount it as udf, I think it is a kernel flaw.
Given that kernel flaw, and the fact that mounting as iso9660 works,
mount(8) could work around the kernel problem by guessing iso9660.
But maybe we should first try to fix the kernel.

Ok, like said, this comes from udf_fill_super(), but which shouldn't

have tried to mount a non-UDF filesystem as UDF (unless explicitly asked
as such). I was actually asking for the logs explaining why you thought
the _kernel_ incorrectly announced it as an UDF filesystem.

Hmm ... those CD-RTOS, CD-BRIDGE and CDUDF File System - Adaptec Inc
bits are not dmesg output, are they? Looks like hwinfo --cdrom or
isoinfo or some such.

 I think the filesystem can be treated both as iso9660 and as udf,
 at least that is what I seem to recall CD-BRIDGE means.  Thus,
 if the kernel cannot mount it as udf, I think it is a kernel flaw.

I don't think that is what CD-BRIDGE means -- so no kernel flaw :-)
What happened here is simply that in the absence of a -t option,
mount(8) defaulted (probably due to incorrect heuristics?) to UDF for
some reason, thereby obviously failing. I don't know who maintains
mount(8) / util-linux package, or do distributions have their own
maintainers these days (?)

Hi,

Adrian took over util-linux, but hasn't made any releases lately,
so one of the RHAT developers is maintaining util-linux-ng:
