Subject: [PATCH v2] mkfs: support block map for blob devices
Date: Mon,  9 Mar 2026 17:54:34 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260309122434.49204-1-nithurshen.dev@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260307062810.19862-1-nithurshen.dev@gmail.com>

Currently, using --blobdev to specify an extra device is restricted
from working with the block map chunk format. This was previously
noted as a task that could be implemented by mapping the device
blocks using a global address.

This patch implements this support by allowing the block map to
reference chunks residing on extra devices. This is achieved by:
1) Removing the -EINVAL check in mkfs/main.c.
2) Calculating the global startblk address for the block map by
   summing the blocks of the primary device and preceding devices.
3) Ensuring EROFS_CHUNK_FORMAT_INDEXES is only set if the user
   has not forced the block map format.
4) Updating erofs_inode_fixup_chunkformat to error out if the
   mapped address exceeds UINT32_MAX, as block maps cannot
   support 48-bit addressing.

In addition, erofs_map_dev() is updated to correctly identify the
device ID when a global block address is used with block maps,
enabling userspace tools to read these images.
