The purpose of 'SingleDisk' is the same as in the IopCreateArcNames()
function. It is an optimization for that when looking up the
firmware-recognized ARC disks list, in order to match one of these with
the current NT disk being analysed (see e.g. also in IopCreateArcNamesDisk()),
we avoid a possible IopVerifyDiskSignature() call and directly build a
corresponding ARC name NT symbolic link for it.
'SingleDisk' will actually be TRUE, whether the DiskSignatureListHead
list is empty or contains only one element: Indeed in only both these
cases, 'DiskSignatureListHead.Flink->Flink' will refer to the list head.
(If the list is empty but 'SingleDisk' is TRUE, this does not matter,
because the DiskSignatureListHead looking-up loop never starts.)
- Convert PARTITION_TABLE_OFFSET to the number of bytes instead of
(number of bytes) / 2. This avoids many confusing casts
- Use a cache aligned buffer for MBR
- Some "PartitionInfo->PartitionNumber = 0;" are ROS-specific hacks for
xHalIoAssignDriveLetters(), that should be fixed... Mark them as such.
- Un-hardcode some "magic" values (partition IDs, max number of
partition table entries, etc.).
- Use NULL instead of '0' for null-pointers.
- Fix some typos in comments.
Use single IOCTL (IOCTL_DISK_GET_DRIVE_GEOMETRY_EX) for retrieving
disk basic geometry information along with disk size.
Previous implementation used to issue two requests for that.
This fixes a regression introduced in 5ab1cfc which
was causing Unix (BtrFS, ExtX, and so on) volumes not
to be assigned a drive letter assigned anymore. And
thus, they were no longer mounted and presented to the
users.
CORE-16499
The major change with this rewrite is the support for the mount
manager. Fstub will now assume that most of the devices are PnP
and that they are already registered to the mount manager.
It will thus ask the mount manager to assign the drive letter.
Fstub will keep assigning drive letters non mission critical devices
such as CDs, floppies and other removable devices.
See MountMgr:QueryPoints API test that will now return mount points :-).
