Subject: parted/ui: Count empty strings as words in multi_word mode
|
|
References: bsc#1023818, boo#1032562
|
|
Patch-mainline: submitted, 2017-08-10
|
|
|
|
In non-interactive mode, the command line arguments are appended
|
|
to a string list with command_line_push_line() in multi_word mode.
|
|
That mode does not count empty strings as a word.
|
|
For mkpart and a GPT disk label, the partition name is picked up
|
|
from that string list. The partition name is mandatory and we
|
|
cannot make it optional. So it is not possible to set an empty
|
|
partition name from command line this way.
|
|
Also setting a default name is no option as this causes duplicate
|
|
/dev/disk/by-partlabel/ symlinks and systemd errors this way.
|
|
|
|
So count empty strings as words in multi_word mode to allow the
|
|
the following commands to set an empty partition name.
|
|
|
|
parted -s /dev/vdb mkpart "" 1MiB 100%
|
|
parted -s /dev/vdb mkpart "" ext3 1MiB 100%
|
|
|
|
This does not break any other parts as these all check if the
|
|
provided string is a valid value.
