Philippe De Muyter ea56505bed partitions/efi.c: replace useless kzalloc's by kmalloc's
In alloc_read_gpt_entries and alloc_read_gpt_header, the kzalloc'ated
zones are either totally overwritten by the following read_lba call,
or freed.  As kmalloc is cheaper than kzalloc, use kmalloc.

Ming Lei ac2e5327a5 block/partitions: optimize memory allocation in check_partition()
Currently, sizeof(struct parsed_partitions) may be 64KB in 32bit arch, so
it is easy to trigger page allocation failure by check_partition,
especially in hotplug block device situation(such as, USB mass storage,
MMC card, ...), and Felipe Balbi has observed the failure.

This patch does below optimizations on the allocation of struct
parsed_partitions to try to address the issue:

- make parsed_partitions.parts as pointer so that the pointed memory can
  fit in 32KB buffer, then approximate 32KB memory can be saved

- vmalloc the buffer pointed by parsed_partitions.parts because 32KB is
  still a bit big for kmalloc

- given that many devices have the partition count limit, so only
  allocate disk_max_parts() partitions instead of 256 partitions always

Ming Lei 06004e6eeb block/partitions/mac.c: obey the state->limit constraint
It isn't necessary to read the information of partitions whose number is
equal and more than state->limit since only maximum state->limit
partitions will be added inside rescan_partitions().

That is also what other kind of partitions are doing.

Peter Jones 8b8a6e1881 block/partitions/efi.c: ensure that the GPT header is at least the size of the structure.
UEFI 2.3.1D will include a change to the spec language mandating that a
GPT header must be greater than *or equal to* the size of the defined
structure.  While verifying that this would work on Linux, I discovered
that we're not actually checking the minimum bound at all.

The result of this is that when we verify the checksum, it's possible that
on a malformed header (with header_size of 0), we won't actually verify
any data.

Philippe De Muyter 86ee8ba64d block/partition/msdos: detect AIX formatted disks even without 55aa
AIX formatted disks do not always have the MSDOS 55aa signature.
This happens e.g. for unbootable AIX disks.

Up to now, such disks were not recognized as AIX disks, because of the
missing 55aa.  Fix that by inverting the two tests.  Let's first
check for the AIX magic strings, and only if that fails check for
the MSDOS magic word.

Linus Torvalds 9228ff9038 Merge branch 'for-3.8/drivers' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block
Pull block driver update from Jens Axboe:
 "Now that the core bits are in, here are the driver bits for 3.8.  The
  branch contains:

   - A huge pile of drbd bits that were dumped from the 3.7 merge
     window.  Following that, it was both made perfectly clear that
     there is going to be no more over-the-wall pulls and how the
     situation on individual pulls can be improved.

   - A few cleanups from Akinobu Mita for drbd and cciss.

   - Queue improvement for loop from Lukas.  This grew into adding a
     generic interface for waiting/checking an even with a specific
     lock, allowing this to be pulled out of md and now loop and drbd is
     also using it.

   - A few fixes for xen back/front block driver from Roger Pau Monne.

   - Partition improvements from Stephen Warren, allowing partiion UUID
     to be used as an identifier."

Diego Calleja 5f6f38dbb0 partitions: enable EFI/GPT support by default
The Kconfig currently enables MSDOS partitions by default because they
are assumed to be essential, but it's necessary to enable "advanced
partition selection" in order to get GPT support. IMO GPT partitions
are becoming common enought to deserve the same treatment MSDOS
partitions get.

(Side note: I got bit by a disk that had MSDOS and GPT partition
tables, but for some reason the MSDOS table was different from the
GPT one. I was stupid enought to disable "advanced partition
selection" in my .config, which disabled GPT partitioning and made
my btrfs pool unbootable because it couldn't find the partitions)

Stephen Warren d33b98fc82 block: partition: msdos: provide UUIDs for partitions
The MSDOS/MBR partition table includes a 32-bit unique ID, often referred
to as the NT disk signature.  When combined with a partition number within
the table, this can form a unique ID similar in concept to EFI/GPT's
partition UUID.  Constructing and recording this value in struct
partition_meta_info allows MSDOS partitions to be referred to on the
kernel command-line using the following syntax:

root=PARTUUID=0002dd75-01

Stephen Warren 1ad7e89940 block: store partition_meta_info.uuid as a string
This will allow other types of UUID to be stored here, aside from true
UUIDs.  This also simplifies code that uses this field, since it's usually
constructed from a, used as a, or compared to other, strings.

Note: A simplistic approach here would be to set uuid_str[36]=0 whenever a
/PARTNROFF option was found to be present.  However, this modifies the
input string, and causes subsequent calls to devt_from_partuuid() not to
see the /PARTNROFF option, which causes different results.  In order to
avoid misleading future maintainers, this parameter is marked const.

Stefan Weinhuber 46e8894786 s390/partitions: make partition detection independent from DASD ioctls
In some usage scenarios it is desireable to work with disk images or
virtualized DASD devices. One problem that prevents such applications
is the partition detection in ibm.c. Currently it works only for
devices that support the BIODASDINFO2 ioctl, in other words, it only
works for devices that belong to the DASD device driver.

The information gained from the BIODASDINFO2 ioctl is only for a small
set of legacy cases abolutely necessary. All current VOL1, LNX1 and
CMS1 type of disk labels can be interpreted correctly without this
information, as long as the generic HDIO_GETGEO ioctl works and
provides a correct disk geometry.

This patch makes the ibm.c partition detection as independent as
possible from the BIODASDINFO2 ioctl. Only the following two cases are
still restricted to real DASDs:
- An FBA DASD, or LDL formatted ECKD DASD without any disk label.
- An old style LNX1 label (without large volume support) on a disk
  with inconsistent device geometry.

Anton Altaparmakov 97387e3baa LDM: Fix reassembly of extended VBLKs.
From: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>

Extended VBLKs (those larger than the preset VBLK size) are divided
into fragments, each with its own VBLK header.  Our LDM implementation
generally assumes that each VBLK is contiguous in memory, so these
fragments must be assembled before further processing.

Currently the reassembly seems to be done quite wrongly - no VBLK
header is copied into the contiguous buffer, and the length of the
header is subtracted twice from each fragment.  Also the total
length of the reassembled VBLK is calculated incorrectly.
