xfs_is_valid_magicnum is not actually a generic function that checks for magic numbers, instead it checks only for superblock's one.

The current btrfs support did not handled multiple stripes stored in chunk items, hence skipping the physical addresses that were needed to do the mapping. Besides, the chunk tree may contain DEV_ITEM keys which store information on all of the underlying block devices, so we must skip them instead of finishing lookup. The bug was reproduced with btrfs-progs v4.2.2. Cc: Gene Cumm <gene.cumm

It's needed to enumerate both UFS1/2 since they have different magic numbers and super block offsets. Besides, UFS2 can be installed in the 0-64k range like BTRFS, whereas UFS1 can't.

Besides supporting newer version of xfs file system, this patch also does some code refactoring and fix completely broken listing and searching on v2-3 node directories.

My compliments on the release of syslinux-5.0 and happy holidays to the entire Syslinux team.? I have a longer message in me.? Lots of curiousity about the direction of the project, but that will have to wait until I finish my first 5.0 project (*not* my first Syslinux project), which just happens to touch past problems: drive enumeration. This particular effort is on a USB flash drive, with two

Merge btrfs_read_adv and xfs_read_adv into a single generic function ext_read_adv and split ext_write_adv_offset out of ext_write_adv. Use those new functions in rewrite_boot_image and btrfs_install_file where it is actually hardcoded.

So last week I was wondering if XFS was still working -- even with its last on-disk structure changes -- and it _suprisingly_ worked as expected. Right, now I can finally get rid of GRUB and use Syslinux to boot my Linux on EFI from a rootfs with xfs. Shit, I have two partitions (the first one being the required ESP) so there is no way to access the other partitions since because Syslinux does not
