Subject: [PATCH dmraid 0/1] pdc metadata bug fix
Date: Fri, 11 Dec 2009 14:27:10 +1100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20091211032710.161471708@suse.de> (raw)
Hi,
the follow patch fixes a bug with pdc metadata handling, as described
in that patch.
I noted on reading the code that if pdc_read_metadata finds the metadata
at and address listed in begin_sectors, info->u32 is set to an offset
from the start of the device, rather than from the end, and then the use
of info->u32 in setup_rd becomes incorrect.
I didn't try to fix this as I don't know all the implications of
a 'begin_sectors' address being used.
Thanks,
NeilBrown
