From 9da22854761a76c45d78aa2ae2b4bbd504b4f171 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Carmeli Tamir Date: Thu, 3 Jan 2019 15:27:49 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] include/uapi/linux/msdos_fs.h: use MSDOS_NAME for volume label size The FAT file system volume label file stored in the root directory should match the volume label field in the FAT boot sector. As consequence, the max length of these fields ought to be the same. This patch replaces the magic '11' usef in the struct fat_boot_sector with MSDOS_NAME, which is used in struct msdos_dir_entry. Please check the following references: 1. Microsoft FAT specification 2005 (http://read.pudn.com/downloads77/ebook/294884/FAT32%20Spec%20%28SDA%20Contribution%29.pdf). Search for 'volume label'. 2. Microsoft Extensible Firmware Initiative, FAT32 File System Specification (https://staff.washington.edu/dittrich/misc/fatgen103.pdf). Search for 'volume label'. 3. User space code that creates FAT filesystem sometimes uses MSDOS_NAME for the label, sometimes not. Search for 'if (memcmp(label, NO_NAME, MSDOS_NAME))'. I consider to make the same patch there as well. https://github.com/dosfstools/dosfstools/blob/master/src/mkfs.fat.c Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1543096879-82837-1-git-send-email-carmeli.tamir@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Carmeli Tamir Reviewed-by: Sergey Senozhatsky Reviewed-by: Johannes Thumshirn Acked-by: OGAWA Hirofumi Cc: Jens Axboe Cc: Bart Van Assche Cc: Martin K.
