Please find attached a new patch. I hope I managed to fix all remarks
that were made ;-) If not then please let me know.
This is intended for the Changelog :
2008-09-09 Hans Lambermont <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* disk/lvm.c (grub_lvm_scan_device): Allocate buffer space for the
circular metadata worst case scenario. If the metadata is circular
then copy the wrap in place.
* include/grub/lvm.h: Add GRUB_LVM_MDA_HEADER_SIZE, from the LVM2
project lib/format_text/layout.h
Circular metadata bug found and patch debugged by
Jan Derk Gerlings <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
The 'svn diff --diff-cmd diff -x -up' style patch is attached.
regards,
Hans Lambermont
