Re: [Libguestfs] [PATCH] daemon: In list_filesystems ignore /dev/mapper/osprober-* devices

These should be ignored since they duplicate the existing filesystems. https://listman.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2022-May/028871.html https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2003503#c12 Fixes: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2003503 --- daemon/listfs.ml | 10 ++++++++++ 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+) diff --git a/daemon/listfs.ml b/daemon/listfs.ml index 63ced260a1..fef8b72bb7 100644 --- a/daemon/listfs.ml +++ b/daemon/listfs.ml @@ -41,6 +41,7 @@ let rec list_filesystems () = *) let devices = Lvm_dm.list_dm_devices () in let devices = List.filter is_not_partitioned_device devices in + let devices = List.filter is_not_osprober_device devices in List.iter (check_with_vfs_type ret) devices; (* Partitions. *) @@ -90,6 +91,15 @@ and is_not_partitioned_device device = not has_partition +(* In some circumstances the osprober tool (run by grub2) leaves + * around orphaned device-mapper maps which cover existing filesystems. + * These should be ignored.
