Subject: [PATCH] virtio-blk: Allow extended partitions
Date: Tue, 23 Jun 2015 11:39:00 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1435030740-18421-1-git-send-email-famz@redhat.com> (raw)
This will allow up to DISK_MAX_PARTS (256) partitions, with for example
GPT in the guest. Otherwise, the partition scan code will only discover
the first 15 partitions.
