Hi Frédéric,
However, the patch issues no warning at compile time and fixes the ide block layer.
OK -- anyone has any idea why Sasha's patch fixes reading from "far" blocks but does not fix ex2ls? Frankly, I'd prefer it if the patch fixed it all. :)
I did a quick look. Ext2 code use "unsigned long" for the partition offset and "int" for sector computation. I will try to fix it, and try to test the other fs ( ext4, xfs, fat). I would see one patch for the ide code, and one or more patch for the fs code. IMHO, Sascha patch can be applied as.
Regards,
