Transition to support for 52 partitions In
-current,
Theo de Raadt (deraadt@) has
started
the transition to support for 52 disk partitions
(on a subset of hardware architectures):
CVSROOT: /cvs
Module name: src
Changes by: deraadt@cvs.openbsd.org 2025/11/13 13:59:14
Modified files:
sys/dev/ata : wd.c
sys/kern : kern_pledge.c
sys/sys : disklabel.h dkio.h
sys/scsi : sd.c
sys/dev/isa : fdreg.h
sys/arch/sparc64/dev: fd.c
Log message:
Begin transition to 52-partition support. The partition encoding used
to be lowest 4 bits of dev_t, and now becomes 6. This supplies 64
partitions in struct disklabel.d_partitions[MAXPARTITIONSUNIT], but we
only use 52 of these slots (an architecture can be either 16 partition
or 52 partition, depending on MD define MAXPARTITIONS). The
52-partition limit is due to single-character representation limit of
a-zA-Z. We supply a backwards-compat ioctl for a while which can read
an disklabel structure.
