pc-bios/s390-ccw/bootmap: Improve the guessing logic in zipl_load_vblk()
|
|
|
|
The logic of trying an final ISO or ECKD boot on virtio-block devices is
|
|
very weird: Since the geometry hardly ever matches in virtio_disk_is_scsi(),
|
|
virtio_blk_setup_device() always sets a "guessed" disk geometry via
|
|
virtio_assume_scsi() (which is certainly also wrong in a lot of cases).
|
|
|
|
zipl_load_vblk() then sees that there's been a "virtio_guessed_disk_nature"
|
|
and tries to fix up the geometry again via virtio_assume_iso9660() before
|
|
always trying to do ipl_iso_el_torito(). That's a very brain-twisting
|
|
way of attempting to boot from ISO images, which won't work anymore after
|
|
the following patches that will clean up the virtio_assume_scsi() mess
|
|
(and thus get rid of the "virtio_guessed_disk_nature" here).
|
|
|
|
Let's try a better approach instead: ISO files always have a magic
|
|
string "CD001" at offset 0x8001 (see e.g. the ECMA-119 specification)
|
|
which we can use to decide whether we should try to boot in ISO 9660
|
|
mode (which we should also try if we see a sector size of 2048).
|
|
|
|
And if we were not able to boot in ISO mode here, the final boot attempt
|
|
before panicking is to boot in ECKD mode. Since this is our last boot
|
|
attempt anyway, simply always assume the ECKD geometry here (if the sector
|
|
size was not 4096 yet), so that we also do not depend on the guessed disk
|
|
geometry from virtio_blk_setup_device() here anymore.
