Hello list,
thanks for this very nice piece of software!
While working on gparted, I encountered a bug in ped_partition_get_path
for LUKS mappings on latest git (0406b2ce).
Using the code
#include <parted/parted.h>
int main(int argc, char* argv[]) {
printf("Opening %s\n",argv[1]);
PedDevice* device = ped_device_get(argv[1]);
PedDisk* disk = ped_disk_new(device);
PedPartition* partition = ped_disk_next_partition( disk, NULL ) ;
printf("Partition path: %s\n", ped_partition_get_path(partition));
}
like
> ./test /dev/mapper/_dev_dm_1
outputs
Opening /dev/mapper/_dev_dm_1
Partition path: /dev/mapper/_dev_dm_1p1
But actually the partition path should be "/dev/mapper/_dev_dm_1",
because this is the LUKS block
device where the virtual first "partition" is. There is no
/dev/mapper/_dev_dm_1p1 device.
More info:
> sudo parted /dev/mapper/_dev_dm_1
GNU Parted 2.3
Using /dev/mapper/_dev_dm_1
